Hey all. The problem Since I started playing, I've had terrible frame drops every few minutes. Now the game is playable tough, and the frame drop seems to just show up whenever it wants, regardless if I'm in the middle of nowhere, or in Cherno. When i don't have drops my frame rate is consistent regardless of towns, tree's, airfield, just grass, moving or not. Now, I've been playing since almost the beginning, and I've tried EVERYTHING. Literally every. Single. Possible. Solution. I've googled it, kept my eyes on the boards, changed files, defraged the game, changed NVIDIA setup and played allot with the settings (everything on high or everything on low doesn't do the trick). What I noticed Now the thing is, it only happens in multiplayer. I can play ARMA singleplayer without any drops at all at a steady 40 (or more) FPS and when they occur they only last a quick second. This only happens in multiplayer. And however it's not limited to DayZ per sé, because it also happens in normal MP to me, it is more common in DayZ. (I've played a solid 20 minutes of ARMA multiplayer today, and the only framedrop i had was when a jet took off in front of my nose.) Some feedback Now, I've been on this for weeks and I've read that DayZ works in a way that whenever there are zombies near you, your PC takes over control of the zombie. Now I noticed the drops occur every time a zombie started to spawn near me, or whenever a zombie is attacking (I always travel in a group, but even if it attacks another player I get drops for a few moments.) I know that the whole "zombie control" thing is the only option for DayZ to work without lagging the server to death, but it may be something the developers can look in too and optimize(?). Solution? Probably never. For now I've found no possible solution even tough I've tried (really) everything, and I just keep playing it like it is like I did before, but I'm getting pretty fed up by it by now. TL;DR - Framedrops occur randomly every few minutes. (this can be 3 minutes, but also 10 or 5) - It's not caused by rendering bushes, tree's or big city's - It has not happened to me in the ARMA singleplayer. - Framedrops always occur when there are zombies nearby, but after a few moments I get steady FPS again, even when the zombie(s) are walking past me or running to me.
