phisher34 12 Posted July 14, 2012 (edited) Basically the newest beta patch 94945, will cause you to get stuck on waiting for host.Download the previous patch 94876, and just run the .exe. It should overwrite without issue and you won't have to uninstall the beta. This should fix the problem.You might be able to get on servers running 94945, if you stick with that patch, but most servers are not updated to that patch.

MichaeLK 16 Posted July 14, 2012 (edited) Yup +1 on that.reverting to 94876 is confirmed to be working and solving the "wait for host" bug. Edited July 14, 2012 by Arch0N Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

phisher34 12 Posted July 14, 2012 I'm not sure. I just know that some people who had the 94945 beta patch were able to get onto some servers. To me, that would indicate that those servers are running the 94945 build. If you can get on those servers with the 94876 patch I am not sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tek (DayZ) 95 Posted July 14, 2012 Can you just install the 94876 patch? Or do you need to delete some files and then install? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neon Machete 5 Posted July 14, 2012 Yep. I can confirm. I updated to the beta 94945 and got the infinite "waiting for host". I reverted back to 94876 which is what the server was running and it worked.To revert: delete the "beta" folder out of your "expansion folder (or move it) and reinstall the beta version you want.Folder path (steam): C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\beta Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
