Connecting to server, every time connection lost.
Assigned, WishlistPublic

Description

I've currently got an hours playtime on the game, except that I haven't really. I've got an hours sitting in lobbies with my fingers crossed time. To cut to the chase, every time I join a server my connection is okay, then it stops around halfway through the mission file, if that gets done then I lose connection receiving data. I've pinged Google in CMD whilst connecting and aside from some drops, it's fine, and I can still browse the internet absolutely perfectly.

Hello,

thank you for your report. Currently, we have no data to start from, so I suggest we tried and collected some.

I would like you to try two things:
1] Run Arma as administrator
2] Verify that all your files are up to date

Thank you very much!

Hey,

I currently have this problem too. I have searched around to see if anyone had or solved this problem. As for solving, no solution has popped up, but many people have faced this problem.
I did a game integrity check as well running it in administrator.
I have found that when trying to download mission files, it will randomly stop about half till less then 85%. As for vanilla gamemode maps, it will let me join but as soon as I get into character it will say mission fail for me but other players in the game wont encounter this and contnue in the game.
I am not sure what debug data to give because the game does not crash. Once the file has stop downloading on mission files, it will say connection to host is lost and return to multiplayer menu.
The rest of the game works fine in campaign and scenerios, and proves no problems when searching for servers.
