Kohlbar 270 Posted March 9, 2016 Ok, so I got killed by a hacker and after that the server reset. I joined a different server, the game crashes, so I start DayZ up again and don't remember which server I was on so I clicked "play" to hopefully get the same server as when it crashed. The game freezes for about 1 minute and I press ctrl+alt+delete and it unfreezes itself and puts me back on the main menu. I remember the name of the server and join it, but when I join it my character won't stop spinning to the left. I kill myself, still spins to the left, unplug mouse and keyboard, still spins to left, restart my computer, go on dayZ and click to find a server. The "Internet" shows no servers available even though my filter is set on default, so I go to the "history" tab and all the servers show up there! So I join one and now I keep getting Authentication timeout. SERIOUSLY WTF IS GOING ON? Do I need to uninstall DayZ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kohlbar 270 Posted March 9, 2016 (edited) UPDATE: I restarted the game and it fixed itself. Ok so If you get a game crash followed by the spinning glitch followed by authentication timeout glitch, Do the following: Restart DayZ > join a server > restart DayZ again > restart computer > start DayZ again > join a server > restart DayZ again. It's that simple folks! Why didn't I think of it???? Edited March 9, 2016 by Kohlbar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kohlbar 270 Posted March 9, 2016 Basically I got DayZ'd hard today. Just wanted to have fun high popping by myself and see if i could get any kills. First thing that happens is a hacker kills me, then, 30 mins of trying to get the game to work, then a couple hours of getting killed by full geared squads with duped guns as a fresh spawn. I'm done with DayZ until the next patch. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
