Problem re-entering a game.

[ArmoryOMB 0]

Salutations and greetings!

Earlier today I fired up what was to be my first try at the DayZ mod. After much anticipation, I successfully installed the mod and began server browsing. Upon entering a game, however, I was welcomed by a lovely group of flesh biting horrors who promptly ended my life. I laughed it off and went to try again. Except, I ran into a bit of a problem.

After returning to the character select screen, as prompted, and re-entering the game I return to my dead body. As soon as character data is loaded I simply spawn in, down on the ground, followed shortly by the 'You Are Dead" screen. This happens with each server I try, no matter how many times I back out of the multiplayer portion of the game or restart the game as a whole.

Is there something I can do about this? Something I didn't install correctly? Is it simply a slow server response? Am I doing something wrong? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you greatly.

And dont forget, this mod is in ALPHA stages...the community...Me, and including you are testers at this point.

I guess this explains almost everything.
