I don't get the Session Lost issue on the "experimental version", I only get it on "stable version(0.59.131440)".

I usually get the session lost after a few minutes I've joined a public or private server. I can pick up, interact with objects for like 2-3 mins then afterwards I will notice I cannot interact with anything anymore as I get "receiving" when I try to use an object or right click on it. I can't vault, open doors.. its pretty much just running around the server until I get "Warning: Session Lost" message after the game takes you out of the server.

Also note that prior to getting the session lost I can move around and it saves it on my last position before noticing that I cannot do anything.(What I mean is I can run around and be in a different place after prior to the "session lost").

All of these doesn't happen on the experimental build. I played for hours in exp build to test if it would do the same thing, I even had worse ping in it (250-280ms).

This all happened after the security patch was applied. I was actually playing prior the security patch fine. Then when it was time for the security patch I waited, then when the servers came back on I started to get the "Session Lost".

I would also like to add that I've verified the game cache through steam, reinstalled dayz, reinstalled whole of steam, ran steam as admin, download latest BEClient.dll on Battleye website. Someone also noted that switching from WLAN to Ethernet fixed this issue. I cannot test that since I've been using WLAN ever since and had no problems with it. DayZ is also allowed by windows firewall.

There have been some tweaks done, please let me know if the issue still occurs even after this small patch.

Hi, I can confirm that the problem cannot be reproduced anymore! Thanks! Looks like the patch fixed the issue.

Well, I take my word back now. The issue is still existing though it says "Confirmation of Changes: Session Lost" now instead of "Warning: Session Lost".

Hello.
Once again there have been some tweaks done with the last stable update, so let me know whether that has improved anything or not.
Regards,
Geez

Glad to say this issue isn't happening anymore! Keep up the good work!
