void.false@gmail.com 300 Posted July 12, 2012 Ok so I woke up, downloaded this latest patch and applied it and now I cant join any server because they all are running 94700 and below. Are you planning to update the servers? Because I didnt find any thead about it on the forums and I dont want to reinstall Arma. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suspense 210 Posted July 12, 2012 What error are you getting when you join? Beta patches are backwards compatible, it should let you in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
b501 1 Posted July 12, 2012 beta patches are backwards compatible if im not mistaken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dingus (DayZ) 429 Posted July 12, 2012 Despite that, I always try to find a server with the exact patch I'm on. I don't trust them otherwise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
void.false@gmail.com 300 Posted July 12, 2012 Every server has a red X on the left in the game browser. The error says 'connection rejected'. It only happens to me when I have the wrong patch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deltron3o3o 29 Posted July 12, 2012 i think its a hive problem even if u don't install the beta... over half of us in ts last night couldn't connect after 5am PDTwell the ones that couldn't connect could only connect to certain servers which was weird but everything that we did never saved and teleported back to the original log in spot of the last play thru.

It only happens to me when I have the wrong patch.Might be stupid, but check your game version on the main menu. It seems you might actually be running an older patch, beta patches are backwards compatible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Max Planck 7174 Posted July 12, 2012 I don't think 94876 has been cleared with BattlEye yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OPBullets 1 Posted July 12, 2012 Most likely a hive problem, but it should work sooner or later since these beta patches are backwards compatible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

suspense 210 Posted July 12, 2012 Here's the main menu screenshotHuh, thats odd. I guess thats the first beta patch thats not backwards compatible lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Max Planck 7174 Posted July 12, 2012 (edited) Huh, thats odd. I guess thats the first beta patch thats not backwards compatible lol.It just came out.

iexus 6 Posted July 12, 2012 I've updated to the most recent beta, and I cannot play on any server. It seems this beta patch is either not backwards compatible or arma is doing something funny at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Szap 14 Posted July 12, 2012 Confirmed: Cannot play on any server AND cannot patch back as 1.61>1.60yaaay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
void.false@gmail.com 300 Posted July 12, 2012 Ok. I've tried to join regular Arma server and it worked fine. Joined some DM map (God that was refreshing!) And was kicked after I killed the admin. So the patch is working fine. It's DayZ problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nacrom 82 Posted July 12, 2012 Oh god same problem here. It's all bad enough I auto died last night and spawned back in with the same character out in the debug forest with no gear and dying of starvation. Now I can't get into any games after this patch. I tried going back to an older patch but it will not let me and a popup window informs me patch 1.6.1 is the latest and the one I'm trying to install is older then it quits the install. I'm starting to feel like I'm part of some weird experiment. Is this shit even real? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Acix 132 Posted July 12, 2012 (edited) same problem, just saw there was a new build/patch available, so i downloaded and installed it and now theres like 8 servers that are running it most with a 2500ms ping and in russia. No US servers that have below a 2500ms ping and unable to join anything running 1.60.94700... current version on my main title screen says Version: 1.61.94876... please advise either how to go ahead and join other servers or how to revert back to the old 1.60.94444 version since this new one has really screwed the poochEdit: was able to revert back to 1.60.94444 and seem to be able to get back into servers again, however 94876 needs some serious fixing and servers will need to update to it soon since it appears it is not backwards compatible...

The_Terminator 0 Posted July 12, 2012 I too have this problem, im getting very frustrated at the fact that i was also randomly killed last night. and now i cant even play because this new beta patch updates everything to 1.61 from 1.6.0I hope their is a fix soon.

stardruid 1 Posted July 12, 2012 Have you guys tried deleting arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\beta folder then reinstalling the old patch? I was able to reinstall that way fine.The old ones beta patches were all marked at 1.60, the new one is marked 1.61. Seem they made error in the version name. Basically anything 1.60.XXXXX is backward compatible but this one got miss marked and server are freaking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
void.false@gmail.com 300 Posted July 13, 2012 Yeah THX. Deleting the newest patch and then installing 94700 solved the problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
