Have had game a while. Recently after a 4 week break tried playing. Every server I log into has the same error. I'm able to log in, but cant move or interact with any of my inventory, or in game items also including doors. After about 1 minute of being able to move around but not interact with anything I get kicked out of game with message 'Confirmation of Changes' - Server Lost.
Reinstalled game, verified cache files...no fix. Game is currently unplayable.
Every server I log into has the same error. Both my sons who I also bought accounts for have the exact same problem.
Hello cmoulds,
Sorry to hear about your trouble. If you send me a link to your Steam profile, I can check if the problem is related to something on your user account. Example: "http://steamcommunity.com/id/xxxxxxxxxx/"
If you prefer to send your Steam ID url in a private message, you can click the "Make Private" button to the left of your message after you click the button labeled "Add Note".
Thanks,
JStewart

is this what you were after??
Thanks for helping, im really hanging to play again :-).
Does this happen when you try to play by yourself, or does it happen when all of you play together at the same time?
when I play the game by myself.
My boys play rarely.
Because my profile was not working, I tried logging into steam(on my own computer)as my first sons profile just so I could play but the same issue happened.
So then I tried my second sons profile on his own computer and he has the same problem as well.
We have recently changed over to the NBN from broadband but no other games or on line activity have been affected at all.
Just tried again, same thing, cant interact with anything in the game(doors, items etc), can move around though, cant interact with anything in my backpack (when I put the curser over things it says 'receiving' and doesn't change. It does save my position in the game though, so if log in and move, after a minute it then kicks me out with 'confirmation of changes' message, but my position is updated in the game when I log back in.
Something on your system must have changed in order to cause this issue to suddenly appear. Could you try out the following please?
Add -port=25007 into your DayZ launch options on one of the PC's. To do this, you can right click on DayZ in Steam --> Properties --> Set Launch Options and enter "-port=25007" (without the quotation marks). The number doesn't really matter as long as it's different from the other computers which will use 2302, 2303, 2305 by default.
Alternatively, if you have access to the router settings and upnp is turned on, you can try turning it off, restarting the router then trying again.

Added "-port=25007" (Without quotations), same results for game. Was I supposed to restart after that? it looks like it saved straight away and if I go back in there it still is there in that menu. unfortunately no fix.
I went into my router settings and the below option was unselected so I assume that means my upnp is already off.
Allow changes to security settings over UPnP
Devices like Smart TV and smartphones, and applications that support UPnP, can be used to change security settings in the home network automatically, such as the FRITZ!Box port forwarding rules. For reasons of security, only enable this option if you really want to allow incoming connections from the Internet.
After your last message I have phone my internet provider who also helped me connect to the NBN with a new router.
It turns out the router was causing the issues.
I have a fix to my problem now and am working it out with my internet provider.
Thankyou so much for your time and effort, I really appreciated your help in trying to fix the problem.
Now I can get back to looking for baked beans and ammo....lol
Much appreciated.
