DayZ FPS Lag

[Macbeth_77 0]

Hi all,

I'm extremely new to DayZ (literally played it for the first time today), and it just lags a hell of a lot, I turned all my settings down and even in empty fields my fps are pretty low, not as much as in small towns but it's a major issue as I can't really play the game properly... I do have a laptop which isn't made for gaming (yes I realise this could be the main issue) but I'm really just looking for ways to decrease the fps lag.

If you need my PC Specs they are:

-Processor: Intel® Core™ i3 CPU M 370 @2.40GHz 2.40GHz

-RAM: 3GB (I have managed to add another 2GB)

-System type: 64-Bit Operating System

-I'm gonna go ahead and guess that my laptop doesn't have a dedicated graphics card

I know that my system specs are probably the problem, but if there is any kind of way to increase fps I'd love some help!

Remember, DO NOT turn down your 3D resolution. It should always be 100% or it will cause an even worse frame drop.

If you have already turned down the other settings, it might just be your laptop. :(

Thanks for the reply, I always thought it would be fine so long as the 3D resolution was the same as the interface resolution? Obviously I'm wrong! I'll have to try it out! I have a bad feeling it is which sucks :( Thanks for your help though!

TBH mate, you're lucky the game is running at all on that machine!

I spose that's true so shouldn't be complaining much!
