Eagle911 10 Posted July 23, 2009 When i get into a game for about 10-20 minutes i get a black screen that is stuck saying 'Receiving...' What is wrong? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kremator 1065 Posted July 23, 2009 You know I never had this bug .... now it's starting to develop. I think there is another thread for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S!fkaIaC 10 Posted July 23, 2009 Let's summarize: There is a significant number of BIS customers getting the "receiving...." screen under various circumstances (for some only in MP, for some in SP, not consistent over the time). It is hitting both Nvidia and ATI GPU owners. BIS did not disclosed so far what exactly could trigger this screen. BIS did not stated if they see any need for action on BIS side (Maruk was rather fingerpointing on Nvidia) BIS is totally silent and Placebo as mediator between BIS and community is from questionable value for the community. Well... SInce moderators do not merge the threads, even not on repeated request I have to spread... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bulldogs 10 Posted July 23, 2009 Ok, obvious loss of translation aside, best bet is to wait til next patch, which should be soon. If it hasn't been fixed by then, start to worry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Binary 0 Posted July 23, 2009 Some people recomend turning down "Video Memory" in the video options to get rid of the receiving bug.. Don't have it myself though.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
merlin851526 10 Posted July 23, 2009 Been getting it for the past week now.Very annoying particularly when your the pilot of a Blackhawk doing 250 knots with a full squad:mad:. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kremator 1065 Posted July 24, 2009 Interestingly mine occurs the FIRST time I go to the MP screen. I then have to press ESC to go back to main menu. If I then go to MP screen the receiving bug has gone and doesn't reappear. EDIT: 4870 512Mb card Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eagle911 10 Posted July 25, 2009 This is becoming extremely annoying. Along with having to restart my computer because my graphic card seems like it exploded Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
novafluxx 10 Posted July 25, 2009 All the more reasons I'm waiting to buy the game...I want to, soooo bad, but in the meantime I'm playing ArmA 1 and enjoying it, but its hard!! lol I just suck at tactical games I think, aiming is my biggest problem. I will be buying ArmA 2 as soon as major issues are resolved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
