Pigeoneer 0 Posted July 21, 2012 So a few days ago I bought Arma 2: CO from steam and installed DayZ using Six Launcher following these instructions ->http://dayzwiki.com/..._install_DayZ�� Then after installing I got in to a server and tried the game for a bit and after a 30 minute search for loot I got shot in the head looting a corpse :D. So the next day, my friend asks me to play and when I log in to a server I get a black screen with "Wait for host" that never leaves. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling everything, verifying the arma files and no help. Can someone find a fix soon? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vault_12 8 Posted July 21, 2012 Update DayZ via Six Launcher and try to play on other servers. Most of the time when you want to join a server with 4/50 players you aren't able to do it. So search for 40/50 players or so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
March1 29 Posted July 21, 2012 Make sure you are running the correct version of BattleEye which you can find here: http://www.battleye.com/download.htmlAlso keeping ArmA 2 updated helps quite a bit! You can update it here http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php (newest update is at the top in the green) Keep in mind that some servers haven't/don't update to the latest beta patch right away. So servers may be limited to some degree!Hope this helps! If not post in here again and we will see what we can do to get the problem resolved! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pigeoneer 0 Posted July 23, 2012 Ok so I tried updating everything and joining different servers, but nothing worked so finally I tried installing DayZ through the Steam installation and it actually worked for a while and I got to play for a while but now I have a new problem: Whenever I try join any server, doe'sent matter how full, what ping, no matter the settings, it just always says "Connecting Failed" and kicks me back to the in game browser. Right now I am getting really desperate 'cause having tried both six launcher and all the alternatives and having none of them work is really frustrating..

Pigeoneer 0 Posted August 11, 2012 Ok, sorry for taking this long, I have had loads of things to do, but anyways. What ended up working was just waiting for the new patch and after reinstalling BattlEye and the beta patch the game started running. Thanks for the support!
