In the latest version, I can't join any servers, including official ones. When joining any server, the game goes to a black screen, and in Task Manager DayZ shows as "Not Responding" while DayZ's memory usage is increasing by about 1 GB per second until it crashes.

    I just downloaded the exp version of DayZ, and I was surprised to find that I can actually play on exp, but not on the stable version. What is the reason for this?
