Problem with last update (95208) : Waiting for host

[deadmeet 2]

Hello guys,

Since I play dayz, I have a reccuring problem. I connect to the server but I'm stuck in a "Waiting for host" black screen.

Before this patch, I got that error quite often, but it was possible to find a working quite quickly.

With the last patch, I got that error on + 95% of the servers. Just tried 30 different one without being able to connect...

Do you have the same problem or most servers are working for you ?

Make sure you are joining servers that are running the BETA patch, try filtering "95208" in the name filter. After that almost every server must be able to join properly. I hope this will help!

I use Dayz Commander and I check the "Hide wrong Arma 2 version" and "Hide wrong dayz version". Then I take care to join a server of version finishing by 95208, but I'm waiting for host most of the time.

try connecting via the ingame browser and see what error you get

Did you check the ping of the server? If it isn't the ping, then i don't know what to do, sorry.

NOTE: Filter on the ping to be a maximum of 100

I imagine this is the connecting Failed error, which when launched on 6 launcher or Dayz commander just stays as Wait for host!
