Steam update? Can't play anywhere now

[ThiefMnemonic 0]

So I'm finally getting the hang of DayZ, and log in for another night session of crawling around towns and avoiding bandits when a few error messages about files not what they expected. No biggie, this is alpha still right, but no. BLAM, kicked from server. When back to desktop, I do notice Steam has update something with the main game.

So I try another server from Six Launcher, and same damn thing. Seems all servers are kicking me now immediately after connection.

So I reinstalled battleeye. I reinstalled six launcher. I am reinstalling Arma2, but Steam wants to download 10 -15 GB after I deleted all my local content.

So what are my next steps?

Wow, that is just fucking Horrible. I sometimes (Only rarely though) get Script Restriction 55, but only when I pick up some pretty Skechy stuff. Like golden revolvers and hacked in veichles.

Steam is trying to download the game you just deleted.

This will be a problem until Dayz updates for the new Arma OA Beta patch.

^{Just a tid bit of info. seems there's a global ban effect on all servers. i read it was something to do with Steam updates. don't quote me on that but i read in the forms here. i tried several servers and got kicked.}

^{Ok I found a fix for this. thank Poisonman for this.}

^{What I did:}

^{Go into your steam library, right click Arma 2 go to properties, Local Files, Verify Integrity, wait till it completes.}

^{Do the same thing for Operation Arrowhead}

^{Launch both games again like you did when you first installed to the main menu screen then you can exit}

^{then right click OA again and launch combined operations to relink the games}

^{then after your done with all that (doesn't take long)}

^{you should be able to launch dayz again and join servers.}

^{worked for me!}

Yup. Effin hilarious. Except you missed the point. Its called a complete reinstall which is one or the suggested fixes. Thanks for the snide comment anyway.

Of course the suggestion bananas posted would have been a better first option.
