While loop not terminating when an array equals the terminate condition array. Java. First java class please be patient. Thank you

Question

Was wondering if there was a reason that the while loop was not terminating if the arrays equal eachother, the one condition was an array set to all 2s and then when the Die array reaches all 2s I wanted the while loop to terminate. Thank you for any help.

Stuck in the mud dice game, 2 players will roll 5 dice each, and the person with the highest total wins, if one player rolls a 2 they are stuck in the mud and unable to continue rolling for the rest of the game

import java.util.*;
public class StuckInTheMud {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.println("What is player ones name?");
        String firstPlayer = keyboard.nextLine();
        System.out.println("What is player twos name?");
        String secondPlayer = keyboard.nextLine();
        Player playerOne = new Player(firstPlayer);
        Player playerTwo = new Player(secondPlayer);
        while (playerOne.getDice() != playerOne.endGame() || playerTwo.getDice() != playerTwo.endGame()) // this is the while loop that wont terminate
        {
            pressEnterKeyToContinue(firstPlayer); // these are the turns looping
            playerOne.playerTurn(firstPlayer);
            pressEnterKeyToContinue(secondPlayer);
            playerTwo.playerTurn(secondPlayer);
        }
    }
    public static void pressEnterKeyToContinue(String playerName) // using a continue method so the game doesn't contine on its own
    {
        System.out.println("\n" + playerName + ", press Enter key when you are ready to roll!");

You while loop test includes

playerTwo.getDice() != playerTwo.endGame()

By using the = operator, you are saying 'are these two arrays the same array object?'. Looking at the endGame method you can see that can never be true, you are creating a new array object every time you call that method, so could never be the same one as

playerTwo.getDice(). 

Instead of checking to see if they are the same object, you really want to know if they have the same values. There are some other ways of doing that. I'll give you a hint, look at java.util.Arrays package.
