B.Olson

Olson here, I was pulling my hair out for about a week trying to figure out why I couldn't connect to any Arma3 servers. I'd join, get to the lobby, choose my team/slot, try to join and everything would seize up on the loading screen. My buddy would keep an eye on the log and it would either say Battleye client not responding or Steam Ticket check failed. I tried every off-the-wall fix I could find online (Adjusting the overclock on my GPU, disabling firewalls, changing virus protection, etc) nothing worked. Then one fateful afternoon, I looked down at my task bar and saw the familiar orange swirl of the Origin icon sitting next to my steam icon... I thought to myself "No... There's no way it could be that simple..." Going off the "Burger King doesn't talk to Wendy's" theory, I figured heck, why not. Lo and behold, not a single problem connecting to an Arma3 server. Final summation: If you're running around in circles trying to figure out why battleye and steam are preventing you from joining servers, check to see if Origin is running, if it is, kill it.
