leeish 3 Posted February 27, 2015 I can't play for more than 10-15 mins until I get the message. The strange thing is for the first few weeks after I bought the game this never happened. It happened when servers restarted but not just all the time. Now it happens all the time. Every server, every game. I watch my ping and it's typically under 30 and my bandwidth is in the 300-400 range whatever that means. Low to 0 desync. But still, after 10-15 minutes drop. I exit and rejoin immediately and much of the time my guy is just where I left him, though if I was near zombies I'm usually dead and respawn and if I'm near other players I'm always dead and respawn when I rejoin, but it's just so annoying since it didn't do it before. It's been going on for like 2 weeks now. I really want to enjoy the game but this is just stupid and since there are a lack of others posting similar issues recently I feel it's something with me. How can I troubleshoot the cause and get it fixed. The game isn't fun. Last time I played I dropped while driving underwater to the prison island. When I rejoined my car was 200 yards behind me and my legs immediately broke. I crawled to the beach and rolled around a while looking for a way to make a splint until it disconnected again. By that point I was hypothermia. I don't want a refund and I know this is alpha but I want to enjoy the game and to do that I at least need to stay connected.

If not post results and ill continue to help. PM me if you any further info or questions So I ran a ping against google for two sessions (disconnects). Each time I got the message I quickly Alt-Tab out of DayZ to see the ping list and neither time was there a break in the pings. I did notice during the game when I would stutter or skip forward for a moment or the right click on an item was unresponsive I would Alt-Tab out and I would have a request timed out right then, but after 1-3 requests it would pick back up pinging and the game was fine. It was during moments of no noticeable lag, stutter, or ping timeout that the No Message Received popped up. Now I am currently in a hotel (with decent internet by the way) but the way its acting it identical to how its been acting at home the past few weeks.

That would point to something to do with your setup. Try reporting this on the feedback tracker http://feedback.dayzgame.com/view_all_bug_page.php maybe they can help you.

If so do you use the computers wireless adapter, or your own. Because that could be the problem Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leeish 3 Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) I assume you use a laptop? If so do you use the computers wireless adapter, or your own. Because that could be the problemI'm on a surface so it's my only option. I can't plugin. That doesn't really explain though why it started. Looking back it seems to have started around the time 53 was released. Edit: I do have a USB adapter, not sure why I didn't think of that. When I get back home I'll try that out and see if the issue persists. Edited February 27, 2015 by leeish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your best bet is to try that other one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
