It varies in interval, let's say half an hour to 2 hours: I get sudden extreme lag. This lag makes everything about 3 frames per second, I am unable to play. To fix it, for some reason I can just go to video settings and change quality (e.g. if on Low then to Very Low), it refreshes it (goes black and loads or something) then it is not laggy. Otherwise it will just stay at this constant lag forever. I use Arma2: Free, if that makes any difference. It is annoying because I just died from a zombie hoard because of it. Thanks.

Hi. The really bad thing is I can't remember the server name.. Here is what happened: We were running, then we heard horns, like from a Ural. Text came up on the screen, something like: Weapons are in ammo crates, fight to the death... there were 3 of us, my mates disconnected immediately, I realised I had all my equipment gone (apart from my ghillie suit).. so I ran to an ammo crate and picked up a sniper, then someone shot at me, broke my bone (I think I could still walk, and my blood was still quite high). Then I decided to disconnect from the server. In another server, my nightvision goggles, rangefinder, pistol and main weapon was gone (although my backpack and main inventory were fine). Although I had the sniper I picked up. My two mates who disconnected instantly still had everything.. I believe it was the admins of the server controlling this, not hackers... Has anyone else had this happen to them, and is there any way of knowing which server could have done this. We were running around for about 5 or 10 minutes before this happened.

Verify Signatures instead of using checkFiles.

3 kills or more makes you a bandit, apparently.

That is very stupid. What if a player finds you?

You should attempt to get atleast 4 in a hatchet fight instead of just 2 :P

Those who are likely to kill me I feel nothing. Those who have no weapon, I feel slightly bad, but they didn't lose much loot so it's not too bad. There was one guy with a winchester and an alice pack. I had a hatchet on my toolbelt. I wanted his gun and his alice pack. He didnt know I had a hatchet. I ran to him with zombies behind me saying in the mic, help help, kill these zombies and il give you some stuff. He also talking in mic something like: "its ok its ok". I put something on the floor and said take it. He went over to it, as he did this I took out the hatchet behind him and killed him. His dying words were literally: "Oh fu- [uck you!]". I felt really bad about that one. xD

The alt+F4 issue fix makes no sense. Surely they will only log out/disconnect once, or maybe twice, and possibly join a new server... I do not see how the fix will help in any way..

It was night-time and zombies were chasing me in a supermarket, I was in the back storage area and my gun was too long to turn or really move at all because of the shelves and these zombies surrounded me. Oh those screams of agony still give me nightmares.

I have something to say, it has probably already been said but I can't be bothered to read the whole thread. OP: This game is meant to be hard, everything it not meant to be handed to you on a plate. You are obviously inexperienced in this game, and it seems unlikely you will learn fast, looking at your attitude. Change your attitude of, it is a game meant to make me happy to, imagine if this was real life, what would you have to do.. when you become experienced, you know how to deal with things like being chased by a zombie while bleeding etc.. and when you learn how to not alert a whole town a zombies.. and when you learn how to navigate quickly even without a map, by seeing your spawn location and memorising the map off by heart... and when you start deciding to run through forest instead of open fields... and when you have a plan of where to go and what to do.. you will then find this 'game' (yes, more like anti game).. fun! It has to come from yourself, this game is like a sandbox.

How big is the clan? How long has it been running? Tell us a bit about yourself...

Same.

1) A workaround I found was pressing Numpad Enter to go to 3rd person/1st person.

Well for me it is client side. No one else seems to get it. I guess im alone in this cruel world.
