Game crashes to desktop

[kwiatek 0]

Hi, I've got a problem here. After updating from 94876 beta patch up to higher versions(94945, and now 95054), game constantly crashes when I join any server. I've tried reinstalling BE, updating manually, etc. I cannot use sixupdater because it gives me an error that says the windows installer is broken or something, but it's not important because I can update the game manually. But still - every time I join a server it crashes and sends me back to desktop with msg that it stopped working or something like this.

How to fix it? I've got to add that I've also had hard time with 94876 - BE failed to update error, but somehow I have fixed it.

I have the exact same problem. On any patch above 94876, I get the endless "Wait for host" message. On patch 94876, I crash to desktop when trying to connect to a server. I've manually updated BE, tried verifying game cache in Steam, nothing works.

EDIT: It was a problem with Battleye. Fix located here: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/35616-crashing-to-desktop-fixed/

If anyone reads this post and it doesn't work for you I have a fix.

Well not a fix but a reinstallation guide. When I reinstalled my OA and Arma II I ended up in some problems so I couldn't run either of them.

1. Delete arma II OA from steam and arma II as well.

2. Delete the arma II OA folder from C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead, and C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2

3. Reinstall both games, run both then reinstall your Beta patch and Sixlauncher or whatever you're using.

Hope this helped for someone because it did for me
