Hello hax.
This is the correct and intended behaviour of the client. The "Run DayZ Client" text is forced by Steam client and cannot be rewritten to something such as "Run DayZ Launcher".

Hello.
Re-read my post, the options are messed up. Running DayZ client launches the game, and launching the game runs the client.

Hello hax.
By "launching the client" do you mean that the launcher is started?

Hello again.
Yes, DayZ Launcher starts up.

Hello again.
Does this issue occur in the stable or experimental version of the game? Or does it occur in both? And have you tried to restart your Steam client?

Stable version. Yes, tried restarting, reinstalling, wiping DayZ doc folder, etc. Options are still messed up. Never tried Experimental branch.
