There is a 'connection tab in the server browser that should be set to 'internet', it sometimes defaults to 'LAN'.

Also, make sure your firewall isn't blocking DayZ off.

Did everything I could to get it to work. and still nothing here is a list of things I tried:

- uninstalled the game

- reinstalled the game

- checked my internet speed

- checked my pc speed

- turned off all firewalls

- restarted my pc

- clarified that the internet tab is selected

- raised my ping to 1000

......not sure how else to play this game. Did I waste my money on something I cant even play? Any other suggestions on this issue?

also I am aware its a alpha, but didn't think this would be a problem. *NOTE* I do have the latest version of this game. And also I will throw my pc specs ok here as well just for information.

- i7-960 quad core

- Geforce 560 Ti GPU

- 2 TB HD

- 12 gb RAM

Also I am able to play other games online as well just an FYI

thanks I will double check this when I get home, does this effect anything else or is this something I need to mess with every time I get on my pc or play other games?

 

should be a 1 time thing. I do not know why some people need to do this.

ok, well I appreciate the info. once I get home later this afternoon i'll put it to the test. if it don't work guess im stuck with a $35 title on my computer. also I know when I log In to DAY Z. It zooms in on the screen resolution. Example : icons get massive and mouse icon get massive as well. dunno if its the same for everyone else or if its my PC
