1. Graphics are terrible for the resources the game requires. This is an engine issue and if it could be fixed easily then Bohemia would have already done it. My guess is that fixing this would cost quite a bit to fund as it would be a hefty rewrite, so maybe DayZ sales will change that. Bohemia ignored alot of performance complaints in Arma 3 also all the way from alpha to release, so don't be surprised if the FPS you see now is final. 2. Check your render resolution and make sure its at 100% and turn post processing off. 3. I cannot stand the movement, I also made a thread regarding the camera: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/155699-will-this-game-ever-have-a-normal-fps-camera/ 4. Its alpha but yea your first 'life' could be a mini tutorial

I mean I can deal with it for now but not too much longer. Hopefully once the major issues are fixed itll come pretty early, the game could really use it. I'd like to remind any developers reading this that Garry's reason for creating Rust was because of how clunky DayZ felt, dealing with this issue early will help you compete more when people are trying both games. Rust's camera is everything you'd expect and DayZ's camera is far from it. Just a heads up, I like DayZ because its not as arcady but thats no excuse for this camera.

Lana: What's your third biggest fear? Archer: Brain aneurysm. Lana: What's a brain aneurysm have to do with walking around in a swamp? Archer: Nothing, it can happen anywhere at anytime, that's what makes it so terrifying.

Red Orchestra stopped twitch aiming properly by using gun sway. But the camera itself is as smooth as any other shooter, thats all I mean. Arma 3 also stops twitch aiming without making the camera feel clunky I don't want to 360 noscope or anything lol. The camera is just so clunky that 60 fps feels like 40

Walking, first person. Turning is just a very clunky chore. I've played with my sensitivity and smoothing and I have it at a tolerable level but I still stay out of tight houses because I often miss doorways and get stuck on objects because I feel like my camera is pivoting on a smashed up bowling ball Of course, but I have no experience modding Arma and I know it uses the same engine as Arma 3 or atleast a halfway build. My best suggestion was to port A3's camera over I saw this in the options and it wasn't toggling, hopefully thats what it is. But even the mod was hard to play so it may just be an Arma 2 inspired thing. FPS camera movement is simply math based on input and transferred to the cameras rotation (if it isn't then its being done improperly), it's almost global regardless of engine. But being similar engines makes it easy to 'copy' the other because the implementation is similar.

At first I thought it was a neat Idea and then I quickly became annoyed. "Who is in that heli at stary" "who is shooting at cherno" "anyone wanna team up in electro" "did you watch the walking dead last sunday" "anyone watch game of thrones?" Not to mention the little kids all over the mic. "Kid just stop talking" "I already told you man aint gunna happen I can talk if I want" It feels more like a GTA ffa match than a survival game. What happened to all the youtube videos I saw where players first met their ingame friends in standoffs 90% of the time? What happened to yelling "who's there" over the mic or "don't shoot im friendly just passing through" to a sniper I just think this was a bad decision overall and has taken DayZ out of its prime. It feels like a nerf was put on everything because of it. Takes you out of that world. "If it bothers you then ignore side chat" That doesn't change anything, I know other people are communicating with it and you're at a disadvantage ignoring it. Just my 0.02

I studied russian for a little while As an American it'll be very hard to retain it and remember the words. The alphabet is easy to learn but itll still take you a while to read words simply because you can't instantly recognize them.

Anyone else running with a GTX 560 Ti? I can run A3 on ultra but recently got A2 and it seems like im locked at 35.... I would ask this on the BiS forums but the A2 section is dead nowadays

I tried SIX and almost punched my monitor in frustration. Finally downloaded commander and I'm impressed, this will be great to get my not-so-tech-savy friend to play DayZ

I'm new to DayZ also I'm the same way. I think id enjoy the game more without side chat though, ruins the immersion. "Who is shooting ____" "who is in that heli?" etc when I leave I just do esc and then alt f4. I hate all the clicking involved

Isn't A2 already in dx9 by default?

ArmA II is a terribly unstable game with terrible performance and bad overall optimization. (It's still a good game don't get me wrong) I've played the All in Arma mod for Arma 3 and its much more fluent and looks nicer than A2, and it feels alot less clunky

and after I play for about 15 minutes on any server my fps suddenly dives down to 10 or 17 and won't ever come back up It did it last night and I thought it was a one time thing but it just did it again

Thanks for the link. Followed everything and still 35 fps :\ Oh wow. Setting the "ARMAOA.exe" process priority to "high" bumped me to up 55 fps but its still pretty unstable, climbing down to 35 for no reason
