So I got DayZ the other day and I love it. The only problem is I get fairly regular lag spikes. It goes from 50-60 FPS down to around 20 for a moment causing the game to lag for a brief moment and it happens fairly regularly. I think it might be worse when more players are in the server but I'm not sure. I have Virgin fibre optic broadband with 30meg dl, 2meg upload and an average ping of 15-20ms. I'm running the game on the following specs... Intel I5 quad core at 3.4ghz 8gb of DDR3 RAM (1600MHz) GPU - AMD Radeon HD 7850 VTX3D 1GB GDDR5 Game running of a 500gb seagate hybrid drive I've played with every possible setting going from disabling them (where possible) to changing them through the various options and I still get this issue. Can anyone suggest any causes and/or fixes for this? It'd be greatly appreciated :)
