frosti 2165 Posted January 21, 2014 hey, so I've been spamming the join buttons and sometimes it says connecting to server, then after a couple seconds it says connection failed, is that due to the server being full or is there problem on my end? There was a free spot but someone clicked faster then you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
m3ik0 333 Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) hey, so I've been spamming the join buttons and sometimes it says connecting to server, then after a couple seconds it says connection failed, is that due to the server being full or is there problem on my end? My guess is that someone was faster than you. And me. And everyone else. Punching the monitor seems like a logical solution Edited January 21, 2014 by Meik0 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DropBearChick 1216 Posted January 21, 2014 The launch parameter makes it permanent name even when editing it in menu when u launch it up next time it will go with the launch parameter you entered instead of the main menu one you entered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sooden 301 Posted January 21, 2014 yay exper. build, name change works.. waiting to see if i can get on a server :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
archsudit 0 Posted January 21, 2014 You can have a Mosin painted green and black and you will get a Camo Mosin!! xD Anyway - servers are pitch black so it's hard getting the loot to try out the new stuff.Managed to:-get the sawed off shotgun using a shotgun and a hacksaw -Camo Mosin-revive unconscious player with defib (dsnt work on a dead player - at least not for me)-burlapsack works on you and on other players At this point my internet decided to go on vacation and I couldn't join after so I gave up ^^What have you guys (that got in a server) been able to test?

DrSubs 18 Posted January 21, 2014 it sucks on coast but not when you run up north. Just like normal. I managed to get all the food and drink I needed largest backpack and new shotgun within the hour. Damn shouldn't have logged out for a sec. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joe_mcentire 2074 Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) -revive unconscious player with defib (dsnt work on a dead player - at least not for me)how's that supposed to happen? by the time (in many cases at least) the gamer would be already respawned or left for another server....so not much sense in reviving dead players.

RC_Robio (DayZ) 6 Posted January 21, 2014 So not being able to get into one of the beta servers since launch i decided i would go on my original character, but wait whast this? I need to go thought the ballache of downloading the old patch! I wouldnt mind but, steams download is slow as hell even on 60mb (start... stop... start...stop) why not back up the old patch? Or even better allow switching from one version to the other?You could have backed up your DayZ folder then just replaced it when you wanted to go back to non-experimental servers.

Problematic 71 Posted January 21, 2014 Well, I missed that completely. The startup parameter still works too, just in case anyone was wondering. xD Thanks for that option man! My home screen is kind of bugged so this is the only solution for me :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sooden 301 Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) you do realize we in beta now ? we've been in beta for almost a year. Beta? whats is beta? i must have missed something (haven't fully ready all the posts, so sorry if i did) But a game is alpha till it as completed it plan/road map... Alpha/ beta (Gold) are not time scales, or references to public access (this didn become beta cus we can play it). they are development tags edit: assuming this is in ref to dayz.. if not, my bad for not reading back Edited January 21, 2014 by Sooden Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xoligy 8 Posted January 21, 2014 You could have backed up your DayZ folder then just replaced it when you wanted to go back to non-experimental servers.Yes i could of done that "if" i had known this is how the patch worked, but there was no mention that you could not revert back without a repatch was there?Anyway, since i have repatched i have lost items.first server: I login check my gear and, medikit lost no big loss i agree and i got the medikit back in a few minutes, 20minutes after i got my medikit back battle eye kicked 15+ people from the server because it was not responding (went from 30+ players down to 16)second server: My guy says he's thirsty and ive lost an ammo box full of ammoMy recommendation, dont revert back from the beta patch as you have a high chance of losing something everytime you login!
