You are in dire need for a gpu and cpu upgrade. No worries though because dayz sa runs like crap at the moment, but to be blunt.. Your system is bad. Overclocking won't fix your issues.

Yeah this works, although usually results in 2-3 empty tents.

Reality has way better resolution and graphics though.

Screw tents man.. no matter how tucked in ass deep in butt f*** egypt you hide it in the woods, someone will ALWAYS find it eventually.

What is the i5-3460? I can't find it anywhere.

All .50 has is a couple new weapons, more PBO files, and configured loot spawn which grabbed my attention. Some graphical tweaks, nothing major.

I'm getting practically the same FPS in towns as I was getting with the gtx 670, same settings. Is this optimization issues? It's not my card because it excels in every other game but this one. What the hell?

Yes, and you can with some settings. It explains why I get 40 fps in big cities with both a gtx 670 and 970.

Which magic bullets do you use? Maybe it works with a magazine, couldn't agree with you since they're next to impossible to find. You can't chamber .308's into it.

post processing sucks and you should just leave it off..This game is unoptimized to the max, PP just makes it worse. Set objects detail to very low and shadows normal as those are the biggest fps hitter. The next thing is probably the texture setting in quality.

40/40 server, 1080p, gtx970 oc'd, i7 4790k oc'd, 8gb ram. Try these settings instead. Very low objects and normal shadows. Object detail is the biggest fps hit so for now it's best to just leave them to minimum. My texture settings are very high/very high. Your rig is clearly more powerful than mine yet I'm getting higher fps than you. It appears the better the rig, the shittier performance, lol.

My rendering settings: https://imageshack.com/i/extNQQUPp Side note, if you turn on fxaa use high since very high is bugged and makes things blurry. Ambient occlusion is currently disabled in the alpha. Disabling AA from very high gives me 2-3 more fps, so I just leave it maxed. Hope it helps.

What are your system specs first of all.

64bit, included some screenshots. Tried lowering AA, HDR settings, ambient occlusion, activating flush, etc. Nothing worked. It looks like this when sitting inside pine trees and other buildings too.

Thank you for all the responses.

It's OC'd to 4.6ghz with HT on, can go to 4.7 with HT off but I prefer it on as I've ran a lot of benches and noticed absolutely no difference in fps and performance, just about 20% less usage with it on. DAYZ SA runs at 25% CPU usage, and 40% GPU usage. I understand but I get 25% cpu usage. Oh man I just can't play 30 fps, especially in big cities when you sometimes have to act quick. Some people like high resolution screens with 40-60 fps in heavy areas, and some like that 100+ fps on max game settings at an acceptable resolution. However I turned DSR to 2x native and turned in game AA down to very low and was experiencing a large fps hit with jagged edges. It looked a bit sharper but when I went back to 1080 high/very high AA it looked much smoother but a little less sharp. I've always been the fps type. It's clear that this game is just really unoptimized, so I might actually benefit from DSR in the future.

Might be from a recent patch, although it's in both .49 and .50 experimental.

Someone should move this thread to troubleshooting. I agree with you though, not really worrying about game performance anymore in its current state.

You can't max out this game yet without fps taking a shit, I have an i7 4790k and I still have to lower objects detail and shadows. Maxed out sits me at like 20-44 fps in towns, whereas very low objects and normal shadows sits me at like 60avg all around. I'm not really a fan of DSR, as I prefer highest fps possible over high resolutions. The fps hit with DSR just isn't worth it to me and the in game AA looks better than it being low with a high resolution.

It's the game man don't worry it's poorly unoptimized. My OC'd gtx 970 is seeing similar fps that my gtx 670 did, and it's at 40% usage. Just keep your objects on very low and shadows on normal.

Guns are relatively hard to find, which is good. Why is it that I must pass through 3 major cities to find 1 box of ammo for the gun that I have. No. Ammo needs to be more common, please. Oh, and more full body jackets. It's pretty easy for you to become freezing yet full jackets are half impossible to find. What the hell mang.

Any news on the release of 1.8.3?

I think what this game really needs until the humanity system is gone is, killing zombies gives you a small amount of humanity if you're in negative values. First two survivors I come into contact with shoot at me on sight, course I took them out. So now I'm a bandit and stuck in negative humanity. There needs to be something to regain humanity back, besides blood bagging. My 2 cents.

Bullet catcher is correct there never was humanity gain. Although it would be nice..In my opinion it would definitely add more incentive to not kill survivors on sight and play friendlier. I hate that the only possible gain is by blood bagging, as it feels so limiting.

Just as pointless as dirt in your waterbottle..

All you need to combine is N and S for full map.
