"Gamebreaking" Bug

Recommended Posts

So I purchased DayZ Standalone on Monday like everyone else and it worked flawlessly. However, the next day I wanted to continue play from where I left. As usual I came to the main menu after starting the game and proceeded to press the 'Start' button in order to join the last server I played on. When I pressed the button my screen suddently froze and after half a hour I went to taskmanager to see what is going on, the status of DayZ.exe was "not responding". I then attempted to kill off the program through taskmanager, but with no luck. I was forced to do a reboot because everytime I attempted to kill the running .exe it would just ignore it and keep going, but I would have the in-game cursor and not be able to press or open any other programs on my desktop.

 

After the reboot was done I tried again, but this time I chose to find a different server and went in to the server browser after pressing "Change Server". There were no servers at all so I tried to press the "Internet" tab on top of the browser and doing so caused another freeze exactly the same as above. The only way for me to actually play now is to join through friends by pressing "Join game" on their user in Steam.

 

I have managed to play occasionally by joining friends and so far I actually love it, especially the focus on survival! :) This "bug" is however extremely annoying as I am forced to wait for friends to start playing.

 

NOTE: If this is the wrong section for this thread then I want it moved to the correct one, I just wanted some atttention to this issue as it is extremely annoying.
