Unable to join servers (1.7.2)

Recommended Posts

Getting hung at "Receiving data..." and also "waiting for character to create" is in the background. Other players in the lobbies are saying they're having the same problem.

I have also several different problems with joining 1.7.2 Servers:

  • Waiting for player to create
  • Loading
  • Wrong version of the server side application
  • Spawned twice on different spots near the shore with startup equipment

I hope this will be fixed soon and I dont end up spawning without any equipment, losing my AS50 + PP-19 Bizon.

Two ppl I play with got the same issues on joining a server OR they where able so spawn but had a camo suit instead of Ghillie (in 1st person) and where invisible in 3rd person.

Yeah i have the problem when I try to join a server it stucks at loading screen or says maximum players reached. Kinda frustrating since I bought the game today for DayZ and it don't work. :(

Only time I can join my server is when i restart it. If I logoff and come back 20 mintues later. I can not connect.

Waiting for character to create.

I just downgraded to 1.7.1.5 and beta patch 93965 (since I have ArmA X). I chose my favorite server which is still running 1.7.1.5 and spawned where I should spawn, with my gear I had before.

As many people have stated, you just need to be patient, it is an alpha mod and patch days for most FINISHED games are just as bad if not worse, take Diablo 3 for example.

im glad there are people having the same problem because i had no idea of what this was about were there is only like 10 servers that you can join and they almost always spawn you at the shore with your same gear that you had :beans:
