Stuck on "Wait for Host" When trying to join a server my brother is on.

Recommended Posts

(Also made a post on Reddit: http://www.reddit.co...ying_to_join_a/ )

As the title says, any server my brother is on (we live in the same house, I get stuck at "Wait for Host", same thing for him when I'm on a server.

Only started happening today, we were playing on a server together last night.

If anyone has any suggestions to what to try to fix it, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks for your time!

That was odd, all my text was black....

Reset your router?

This guy won it right here, said the most obvious skip I missed. He deserves all your beans ever.

Who's server is it? Sometimes a server has a hard time fetching your GUID information. How many times have you played the server before?

Every server we've tried. Public Hive DayZ Servers, Namalsk, Panthera, and a Private Hive.

All the server so far have been ones that we've either played recently or a lot (Such as Derp Ville, and PVP GearHeads)

And only you get this problem? How good is your internet connection? Is your DZ up to date? Have you updated your Arma 2 OA Beta?

Both us get this problem. If he joins the server first, I get it. If I join the server first, he gets it.

I'm on Rogers High-Speed, better than average connection.

DayZ is at 1.7.7, and the Beta Patch is at 103718 (Both latest, and updated via DayZ Commander)

Hmm. Maybe it's an issue of 2 PCs trying to connect to a server from the same IP base/router. I don't know. I've never dealt with such a situation.

I have to ask because.. you know... little brothers and all. Are you guys trying to use the same key or do you own two copies of the game?

We each own our own copy.
