spawned into another guys character

[NewArk 39]

Hey guys,

hope you could help me out. Today I experienced some weird issues. I wanted to start playing so I startet the game via the beta-shortcut. But the ingame server browser didn't show any games. So I tried using six-launcher and get "cd-key in use" error. I rebooted my rig, tried to start vanilla arma and so on. Itried six-launcher again and it seems to work but:

I spawned into a completely different character?! He is somwhere on the been coast with totally other equippment than my original character. I was far north with good equippment.

I use legit retail copy. Anyone got similar problem?

Thanks in advance,

N.

Probably someone using your key.

Im presuming its not hard to gen or steal someones key then just add it to your own registry.

Chars are key based and all equipment etc is taken from the hive based on your key :/

Ok, it seems that my character is wasted. It was around 15 days old and I really liked it. We went to some serioius shit togehter, survived bandits and some intense firefights. Now its gone. <_< Tried to respawn, logging out and in again now I'm on the bean coast without anything again.

I'm pretty frustrated right now, think I need a break.
