Did you search the forums first? There was a stickied thread on this subject at one point. You might find the best info there.

Does this happen on every server?

Are you closing sixlauncher before you get into the game?

How long do you wait for the loading screen to end?

Are you using sixlauncher to verify the server before connecting?

Do you close down arma2/dayz completely before trying again?

I tried, cant find anything.

Yes

No

How long do you wait for the loading screen to end?

Like I said 2 hours is all I could go for, got too pissed off and closed it.

Are you using sixlauncher to verify the server before connecting?

Yes

Do you close down arma2/dayz completely before trying again?

Yes I do as well.

Extremely annoying this. Paied £25 just so I could play this Mod and I can't even get into the game.

Be sure to copy the "ArmA2OA.exe" from the "arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\beta" folder to the main folder. If beta gets updated, you have to repeat this step.

Well, there is the troubleshooting forum where you might find better help.

I had no issues finding plenty of threads related to your problem. Here is the search link (i hope) so you can browse through them. There appears to be several ways to combat this problem. Hope one works for you.

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/f...een#entry278236

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

This thread was recommended by a few

I had this problem today for the first time.

For me it was because I had BETA BUILD 94700 and was joining servers with earlier versions.

I have no issue joining 1.7.2 94700 servers.

Hope this helps!

After getting really angry -

I deleteted this folder - C:\Users\YourUserName\Documents\ArmA 2\Saved\mpmissions

I then installed the 94700 beta patch from here: http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php

And booted the Six Launcher. I clicked the Verify button then Quick Game. I was taken to a lobby and from there I got into a game.

Finally!!!

It was worth the hassle!
