If you are playing via six launcher and you have manually updated dayz patch, six launcher will revert back to the old patch (or atleast be confused and cause issues with servers) as rocket hasnt put the dayz patch on six yet. It wouldn't surprise me if this is why so many people are having issues. it also surprises me someone working on dayz aint thought of this....

I get what ya mean dude, but I dont really like Arma II, its just not for me. I want the standalone and I will be buying it, but I just don't want the mod to end early, its incredibly fun to play and with all the years I've spent gaming, this is the only game that gets the heart pumping!

I paid 15 quid for Arma II combined ops, as I only wanted to play dayz, knowing its awesome mod. Now if the mod was cancelled I'd be pretty miffed off, even though I didn't pay for dayz, I only bought Arma for dayz, if it was taken away I'd be a bit annoyed. I am sure you can understand that?

I honest don't see the point doing a reset until everything is fixed. Especially the weapon/gear duping and hacking, Would be the same problem in just a matter of days...

I've seen loads dude, mainly on others players, but still seen loads, I don't think there should be anymore,

I have found, do not use six launcher with the new patch, as six wasn't updating the new dayz patch only the arma II patch. When I manually installed the dayz patch, and loaded up six, it said I was still on the old version...... When I installed dayz commander, and installed the new dayz patch it was fine, dayz commander said it was fully up to date. When I then opened six to check, six either reverts the changes OR doesn't recognise the new patch, as a result servers must get confused or something, as six says you Dont have the same dayz patch as the server,thus causing you to get stuck on loading. I assume this is because Rocket hasnt uploaded the new dayz patch to six, and everyone wants the new patch, but as many of us use six as its "recommended" its causing issues with the dayz patch. So install the patch manually, then use dayz commander to check if its up to date, and Do not open six launcher as its this mess it all up, and you will have to make the file changes again This is just my findings, it may not be 100% correct, and may change if/when rocket adds the new patch to six.

I think, although may be wrong, this happens when are you using a different patch than the server, What do you do use to run the game?

Spot on post OP! I agree with everything you have said! I'd like rocket to remove the tents and stop storing in vehicles, then do a complete wipe of the hive, all tents gone, all players wiped. But he wont do that, not a flippin chance.

yep i have the same problem. I aint got much faith with the standalone at the moment, the hackers can be dealt with, however, crappy bugs and crappy patches is just disheartening.

i cant help with dayz but arma patch - http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php/ - click the top one.

just to let you guys know, the new patch isn't on six yet, what it updates is the arma patch NOT the new dayz patch!

I just downloaded commander, but when I try and update dayz, it just says "error getting files" Any ideas dude? am guessing every man and his dog are trying the same thing.

I'll believe it when I see it.......

am not even bothering installing this till it goes on six launcher, tried doing it manually with no luck what so ever, completely stopped me getting into any servers. yay lol, I hope the standalone game doesnt have these stupid patch issues.....

yep me too, about 5 times -.-

am still downloading the new patch, but have will be interested to see if I have the scarf thing on my character, I dont play as a bandit and have only killed when I have only killed when I have no choice, that being said, if my guy wears the bandit scarf I will be pretty annoyed as that's not my play style, nor do i want to be a bigger target for other players.

I have the same problem, I get that rocket wanted to wait ( as in the first post ) But he's obviously released it on six launcher, but it it still states 1.7.2.4? Edit - hes released something on six though?

I'd get rid of tents all together until a fix for the duping is found.

When is this going onto six launcher? That is normally how I update dayz. tom

if anything there should be more Russian weapons, where's the AK 101? all the old WW2 weapons?

Personally I think it should be harder, I'd get rid of tents and storing weapons in vehicles, so when you die, you really have to start again.

haha I have to admit it does ruin the game, apologies for the poorly directed comment. The last two guys i've killed both alt-f4'd out -.-

I'd have put a round in ya straight away, so fingers crossed ya run into me :) But then ya would probably press alt-f4!

electro, cherno, just dont go there! if ya dont go there, they wont get any kills! I nailed one the other day in Berezino :)

hey all, sorry if this has been posted before, I did use the search function but couldn't find anything. So last night, a guy walked into a building with me and my mate, we didnt know him, so we opened fire. He wasn't facing me but facing my mate. I fired my M16 first in his back, I gave the guy the best part of a full mag! my mate fired a good few Enfield rounds into him. Then guy slowly turns around, shoots me with a pistol, breaks my leg and knocks me unconscious, then he disappeared. Am assuming he Alt f4'd out, but then it said someone died. Luckily I had med supplies so I was fine. So am wondering why he could take a full mag? Is there normally a stupidly long delay? Or what? Also when he re joins a server will he be dead? or alive as he alt f4'd out? thanks guys.
