New to this. Need a little help.

Recommended Posts

Alright so I am both new to DayZ and new to PC gaming. My PC should be able to handle this game from what I under stand so the only problem I have run into so far is actually getting on a server. I have Arma 2, and Arma 2: OA as well as Arma 2: OA beta. After I downloaded that I downloaded Day Z Commander. Once that was download I made sure my versions were up-to-date and I chose the Arma 2 version that seemed to have the most servers connected. Which as of 12/28/2012 was version 99515. Now when I find a regular server with the same versions as me and no white list or recruit. I attempt to join. My name shows up orange when everyone else is green. After a couple seconds I am kicked from the server. Obviously I'm missing something but I am not sure what. I know there are hundreds of posts like this but I can't seem to find any that have answers that have worked. Would appreciate any any and all assistance if possible. Thanks for your time I am really looking forward to playing.

Isn't Battle Eye the anti hacking thing? And it just says. You have been kicked from the game.

Did it do this in multiple servers?

Did the kick say admin kick?

Did you get a message in the lower right corner saying Battleye was current and initiliazed?

What was your ping?

Yeah it did it in multiple servers.

It didn't say admin kick.

The lower left had something about Battleye being current.

The ping I am assuming is that number by your name in the lobby said. (130ms)

I'm decent with computers but this is a little beyond things I have worked with before especially with this game so I apologize for catching on slow.

Just as a heads up, if anyone PM's you or wants to Skype and then offers you any links or software to help you, tell them to p*ss off. Some people will try and steal CD keys this way.

Oh yeah none of that I heard there were quite a few hackers around. Won't be clicking on any links I don't find myself.

You are running the current verisons, so thats not the issue. You are using DayZ Commander - just double tap and make sure it enables the MODs required to play DayZ itself...

To do this load into the game, attempting to join - once it kicks you (you should be at the multiplayer screen) back out to the main menu (press cancel in lower corner) from the main menu - you should see the follow listed in the upper right hand corner...

arma 2

beta

expansion

@DayZ

If there is anything missing, go into your expansions tab at the bottom of the main menu. From there - make sure the following are checked...

Arma 2

Arma 2: British something

Arma 2: Private military something

arma 2

Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead

beta

expansion

@DayZ

Now regardless if you've got the Private military DLC, or the Brit also - it should still be listed from my understanding. I don't own either of these also but they are listed. If there is anything else listed in addition to that - unselect it. The only ones I've listed are whats needed. If for some reason you don't see Operation Arrowhead, Brit, or Private expansions, the issue could be that you have not yet run them as combined arms. To do this, you need to be in steam. I would walk to through this process, but I haven't done it in so long. Googling something along the lines of Steam Combine Arms how to should bring the desired results.

As Fraggie stated... DO NOT download programs that assist you, DO NOT download programs that promise to increase performance...

If you are still having issues, PM me - I'll walk ya' through it on steam chat (voice) if ya have a mic, since getting someones problems solved now a days with text can be a rather slow, and barbaric method... ;D
