Game Not Responding On Start-Up
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

When I try launching the game from Steam, It will bring up the Launcher but when I press "Play" It just sits there on a black screen with a loading symbol. I also have task manager sitting there and it shows "DayZ Not Responding" and it exceeds Memory, also If I keep it sitting there, it will crash my PC. This game was running fine not to long ago and now I haven't got to play for about 2 months because of this issue. I really enjoy playing this game but as of right now, it's been sitting in my Steam library for a bit of time.

Hello msdojrp2.
If you open the DayZ Launcher, select "PARAMETERS", navigate in to "ALL PARAMETERS", check Bulldozer parameter, launch the game, turn the game off, disable the parameter and launch again, do you still experience the issue?
Also, if you increase the memory allocation in your Windows, does that make any difference?
