Why can't i play??

[Tegla (DayZ) 112]

I have the latest version of the mod and the latest beta patch installed, and when i try to play it just says "Waiting for host" and nothing happens, or i get the "server rejected connection" message because of the "wrong version" or what not

I don't get it. I've been playing for weeks without a problem, but lately either all the servers have red X's by the name, or i get the error messages :/

What to do? Half of the servers are empty, i've tried on a 35/40 servers but no luck. Seing all teh forum posts and yt videos, most of the people don't have any problems playing

Any advice?

The servers your trying to play on might not be updated to the latest version you are playing on.

Did you do the manual install? Or do you play through 6 Launcher? Because all the manual installs I've seen (including my own) don't seem to work lately. I started playing through 6 Launcher and that solved it somehow.

Actually happened to my friend just last night. He still hasn't tried anything else yet <_< So I am ever by myself.

So ronery...

Manual.. I heard that 6 launcher/updater is kinda buggy

Well, most servers aren't updated yet. Probably because of timezones etc.

Most servers aren't updated yet, including my own. Look for the beta patch your on in the filter to try find a server that is updated.

Well anything is worth a shot if it isn't working ;) It's a few megs to install and you can always go back to manual.

Yeah, guess you' re right. But i don't see it doing anything that i didn't already do manually.

But i will try

All I can say is that it worked for me, and I didn't get it either. I did everything correctly. was playing fine, then came a beta patch and messed me all up.
