bankers 0 Posted August 7, 2012 (edited) so i have been trying to install this game/mod for 5 hours. i understand it is a mod, and is in alpha, but christ, i've never had so many problems trying to play a game.once i correctly installed the game, i failed to join a few different servers. loading was taking an extremely long time (i know it's due to this game spiking my ping....). FINALLY managed to join a game, then it persisted to stutter... completely unplayable. i tried single player arma 2, so it's not my graphic settings, it's this game taking up an extremely large amount of bandwidth when attempting to join a server or playing in one (which has occurred 2 times in the past 5 hours). also note that i lose connection to mostly any server because my ms spikes to 1500-2500.so, i updated the battle eye dlls. removed all the damn files from the folder. put them in AGAIN. nothing helped. re installed the game, updated the battle eye server/client ONCE again and it still is not working. NOW i just get a battle eye error when trying to join any game, if i so choose to wait out the fucking 10+ minute load wait. i am very frustrated.i can play ANY other online multiplayer game without an issue. i have an internet speed of around 7 mbps.please, please help. i bought the game specifically for this damn mod and no matter how hard i try i CANNOT get this to work. i don't want to have to ask for a refund but i am thinking i may have to considering i can't play this mod.i'm on windows 7 using only MSE as a firewall.

bankers 0 Posted August 7, 2012 well, i found the solution. i downloaded an earlier beta 97541 or something near that and i only play on servers with that same beta number. 0 issues now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duufus 0 Posted August 7, 2012 (edited) i dont see that version will you reconfirm? i see a 94517, but that is actually the version i was using when i started having this issue. Edited August 7, 2012 by duufus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bankers 0 Posted August 8, 2012 95417 is the version, sorry i had the numbers mixed up. i basically had the newest, just reapplied this one and it worked flawlessly. most of the servers use this beta build apparnely, also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bankers 0 Posted August 8, 2012 ftp://downloads.bistudio.com/arma2.com/update/beta/ARMA2_OA_Build_95417.zipthis is the link i used from another thread, install that and try joining a server. this is only for people who were lagging due to network issues with later beta patches, i suppose Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
