Solution for server disconnects
Hello guys,

There is a simple solution for the constant server disconnects:
simply put the armareforge.exe into your firewall exception list.
After that, the game does never disconnect you from the servers anymore.

from what I learned from arma 3 servers I ran, this issue is more on the server operator than the player... server operators need to adjust the pocket loss to 1k or higher. your ping will spike and battle eye will drop you instantly. that is my experience anyways.
no solution, its server side

I think my internet connection is good enough, but this still happens to me.
speedtest.net says ping 6ms, 499,77/22,7Mbps. Ive tried to join servers with ping around 25-30

It's not your internet bro, it's Bohemia incompetence

I had several occasions where my bandwidth was capping when in game before getting dropped, Visible as ping in TS and audible from the audio jittering as well. That's bandwidth issues while talking to the server. Server side most likely. Of course before anyone jumps out saying my connection had issues, it didn't, it doesn't and it won't.

100% SOLUTION is not to buy the Game right now! There is no fix out and if you have a running system, it is not on YOU! Its 100% the game, they are not able since years to get this fixed in there games. They only invest time to develop the Enfusion engine, they should spend money to get some network developers into the team.

There's a better solution, which fixes the issue more permanently.

Right click on Arma Reforger in Steam Library -> Manage -> Uninstall.

Works 100 % of the time. You can also help others with the issue by leaving a bad review detailing the issue and the following debug instruction.

Cheers and good luck.

I didnt really have problem with their netcode in arma3, only with their engine which couldnt fully utilize the hardvers. This engine does it much better (compared to having lot better physics and graphics) so its ok to have first week problems like this with an early access game. Arma fans largest problem was FPS and its way better.

same, never had network problems with ArmA3.
and oh yes, the performance is quite nice in Reforger.
especially considering this being the first week of release!

My wifi is 40-60MBPS for Download and 15mbps for upload and I still get the issues. Only happens on Arma Reforger.... Tbh though, I think the problem is to do with Battle eye having a fault inside of the download because the same type of kick happened when Battlefield 3 came out and it used PunkBuster. The fix for that was to download a brand new PunkBuster from the official site and make sure punk buster was ticked on access to Public and Private WiFi. So I'm wondering if it's the same issue here too?

I don't think there's much that can be done client-side. I've seen entire servers full of people get dropped at the same time. Reconnected and saw both teams empty before people started rejoining them.

atleast the devs are getting a good stress test from all this ;) hopefully fixed soon ;)
