I also seem to be experiencing the same issue. I was killed on the Dallas 13 server after patching to 1.5.8.4, so I went ahead and tried re-spawning. The problem was that after loading back into the game, I was stuck as if in debug mode. So I went clicked re-spawn again, aborted and tried re-connecting, but seem to have gotten stuck on the 'Loading' screen. I hit esc to go back to the server-list, but there was no response from the client, it was frozen and I had to force close like -HolyShot-. As a side note; I think this happened around the same time as the hive update. Things I've tried: Restarted client through Steam and Beta Client Tried 3 servers - US5, Dallas13, EU(Forgot) - All stuck at loading for 15 mins+ Tried a new profile Deleted and re-apply DayZ addons (this fixed a No entry 'bin\config.bin/Cfgweapons error) Updated and re-installed BattleEye Restarted PC, modem and router Checked file integrity through steam OA properties. System Specs: OS: Windows 7 Pro 64-bit CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 925 Processor - 2.80GHz GPU: ATI Radeon HD 5570 RAM: 8GB DDR3 Dual-Channel

I applied the 1.5.8.3 hotfix and it seemed to have been working(35fps), however once I aborted from the server I was on (Dallas 13) and reconnected, I found that my client was crawling yet again at 5fps. I aborted and reconnected yet again and am now at 16-22 fps (it keeps jumping up and down). As a side note, the server was also having an issue where items were not respawning. I will try other servers to see if the issue persists.

The issue definitely started with the 1.5.8.2 hotfix. Had 0 issues with 1.5.8.1. Deleted DayZ addons and re-added them yet again, fps problem remained. Updated Battleeye as suggested in this thread, this brought my fps up to 25-30 for about an hour, after which it slowly came back down to a crawling 5-9fps. Updating video drivers had little to no effect. Rolling back to older drivers had no effect. Re-installed ArmA II + OA completely and re-applied the mod, still the issue remains. I've logged in and out of multiple locations in-game and tried different servers. The fps drop seems to happen immediately after loading into the server, it drops slowly (about 1 fps every 3-5 minutes for me). Tried staring into fires, at clouds, oceans, broken glass, woodpiles, wire-fences, and about all directions, but I can't tell if it's anything specific to game causing the drop.

AMD Phenom II X4 925, 2800 Mhz, 4 Core(s) 8GB DDR3 SDRAM Dual-Channel ATI Radeon HD 5570 Normally ran DayZ at 35-50 fps, this remained true even after 1.5.8 patch. It was after applying the 1.5.8.2 Hot-fix specifically that caused the game to drop to about 15fps which slowly drops even lower the longer I remain in-game (5fps being the lowest I seen it drop to). Played around with the video and audio settings a bit to no avail. Restarting the client brings the fps back up to 15 but only to slowly drop again. Restarting PC and Re-Applying addons/patch has no effect.
