Retrying to Authenticate

[illusive101 0]

I was just curious if anyone else was receiving this error when trying to respawn, I have my brother playing on the same IP address to me and think it might be something related to sending too many authenticate attempts in a short period of time resulting in me being blacklisted for so many minutes.

Any help is appreciated!

I get this error all the time. It's really annoying. 1.7 really broke the net code. I used to be able to connect fine, except for a few busy times here and there. Now every time I try and play I have issues. This one most frequently. Then when I finally connect, I will get 'no message received' error and get booted after 10 minutes. Really frustrating. Out of the five or so hours I 'played' days this weekend, I'd say 2 were spent actually playing the game.

I can ONLY connect to 25 player servers at this point. 50 player servers never work. 25 work half the time.

I'm pretty sure we're not alone. At this point I'm pretty sure EVERYONE is experiencing these issues. The game is just growing in popularity so fast. The point about 25 players above is what makes me confident this is a problem for everyone. In the past, every 50 player server was filed. Now most of them are half full at best, and 25 players servers are all packed.

Are you running the ARMA 2 OA beta?

Is there another player in your house trying to play at the same time? I only ask because I have friends that play in the same house and use to get the error, one of them went home for the weekend and the other had no authentication problems once his roommate left. It leads me to believe that multiple computers playing the game from the same IP might have more issues.

No, I am the only player. I do live with friends though and they play games too, so I do have a lot of activity on our network, but I don't think that is the problem since my ping is always less than 50.

I do have the BETA.

Looks like I haven't been running from the Beta .exe file. I think I tried when I first downloaded the BETA, but got an error message. I will try again when I get home tonight and see if launching from the BETA works.
