stuck at "waiting for server response"

[skurcey 11]

It happens very often, with 1.50 you could ubstuck this by pressing escape but not anymore :(

Anyone has a solution for this?

[liamg121 7]

Yeah, this is happening to me right now...

[upqShp 2]

Yep, same here.

[Braxton 3]

[skurcey 11]

[scoutfreak 0]

Ok we all have the same problem, now can someone please tell us how to fix it?

[phate 55]

In. I'm running into this problem, too.

[lordsilence 1]

Would be good with an update from devs on what is causing this.

[scoutfreak 0]

I've been spending almost two hours trying to get into a game but i keep getting stuck at this message, this is a very big problem.

[Braxton 3]

[riouken 0]

I also have been getting this problem. Ever since the 1.5 series of updates I have not been able to play on any server.

Here is the rpt. I have noticed that when it gets stuck on the "waiting for server responce" I get some errors in my rpt.

Here is my RPT.

When is server getting fixed. None of the US servers work.

Have a Nice Day!

[maubog 0]

This did not work for me but it worked for a friend of mine... All he did was re download the mod and he said that worked for him, So all you desperate people out there go give that a try otherwise just wait a day or so and it should be fixed.

[fighter139 191]

Corrupted downloads might cause this? Try redownloading and reinstalling. Also try restarting your routers and modems.

[phate 55]

Complete re-download of the mod does not work (for me, at least). Have any devs gotten back to us about what's causing this just yet?

[Slade (DayZ) 0]

Happened to me too, it's pretty much annoying :X

[boneboys 7988]

Hi people, my first post is not a happy one.

I am unable to join any server, getting stuck on "waiting for server to respond" screen.

I can access the menu and re-spawn/abort, I can see the player list using the 'I' key, so the game is functioning.

I have given it 10/15 mins or so befoe disconnecting.

This is my first install of the mod, all taken from the download section of these very forums and launching using a modified ArmAII/CO launch "-mod=@dogz".

Thanks...

[boneboys 7988]

2nd post is a little happier.

I managed to connect to a server, the only thing that I changed is to launch the game as Administratorr.

I created a new "player" rather than using the default, this could be the reason that I was unable to connect the first time I tried to play..

I will get back and update if needed.

Thanks.

"PLOGIN: Requesting Authentication... (REMOVED - PM ME if you need my UID)"

"PLOGIN: Request sent with... ([REMOVED - PM ME if you need my UID, ])"

Please include everything except the UID (the number itself)

The reason you are experiencing this will be because of the data in there.

60% of the time, it is because people are using an outdated or corrupt dayz_v1.2.2, and there will be or something similar in there.

30% of the time is because of the server being overloaded.

10% of the time is due to some random weird issues with ArmA2 initializing differently on different computers.

^^^^

That was my problem redownloaded and everything works fine.

[korzinski 1]

Woke up this morning and got to play on a Dallas server for awhile, then got off to download the new update today. Since downloading the updated dayz_code 1.5.3, every single attempt to connect to any server has been met with the connection timing out at Waiting for Server Response.

On a hypothetical note though, if this was indeed a server overload issue, wouldn't all players have the same Waiting for server response problem? I've been sitting in ventrilo with friends who mostly all have no problems passing through this step easily.

[Nikitos (DayZ) 0]

Played on UK-1 today for some time, then quit and now can't join any server with this 'waiting' stuff...

[V4NGUARD (DayZ) 0]

I keep getting this error, I've already had install errors and re-downloaded everything once. I've also re-downloaded the mod and it still happens.

Any word on any other possible fixes?
