how can your fps be "much worse" when you not even ingame ??

makes no sense.

btw. wait till server are fully updated. takes a bit , as there are 1000s of servers.

its still an alpha and things can go wrong but there for its an alpha. and its free.

Same problem here. I get past the character creation screen' date=' but DayZ gets completely stuck on the "Loading" screen. Latest patches here, steam version of ARMA2 with OA. Everything worked fine yesterday, before the new patch. :(

UPDATE: It's FIXED!!! What I did was deleted the C:\Users\Username\Documents\ArmA 2 Other Profiles\CharName\Saved\mpmissions folder, and I'm in!!!

This is related to server side. there is nothing a normal player can do to fix it..

Like Rocket has said" new server side update out" server hoster need to install it so this problem goes away.

some servers have done this so far, and most of them havn't. so keep trying other servers, and you will see it works if you find the right one :)

@rocket: Can we have something like Tetris added to the loading screen? Just to keep folks from throwing their PCs out of the window...

I got it to work. I installed the 94700 beta patch from here: http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php

and the experiemental 1.7.2.1 patch from dayz: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/28806-experimental-1721-test-patch/page__hl__+stuck%20+loading%20+screen#entry278236

Then you had to connect to the server with these patches on and it should work.

So far i found numerous "solutions" to this problem :

"delete C:\Users\Username\Documents\ArmA 2 Other Profiles\CharName\Saved\mpmissions"

"install the 94700 beta patch and the experiemental 1.7.2.1 patch from dayz"

"delete the .rsync subfolder from the @DayZ modfolder and from the expansion\beta modfolder, and then rerun the launcher"

"check that there are no arma related files in your VirtualStore folder: C:\users\your_username\appdata\Local\VirtualStore."

and so on ...

For me that all points to some major inconsistence inside the directories.

So can any of the devs at least point us in the direction to get this fixed !

Well the 94700 and 1.7.2.1 thing worked for me and what I said about not being able to chat. I was using group chat instead of side chat.

I got it working by downloading and installing the latest ARMA2 patch. Then I had to go through the installation steps of the mod again. Then update the mod. Now it works fine.

If you haven't tried that. Do.
