jamaljenkins 0 Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) I have been playing dayz for a long time with no problems. Now all of the sudden my fps keeps dropping below 10 every 30 seconds with a yellow chain and it last for about 10 seconds or so. Its basically unplayable. I've check just about everything on the forum and can't find anything that helps. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I didn't change or download anything, it just started randomly happening yesterday. Edited March 10, 2013 by jamaljenkins Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death_Dealer 3155 Posted March 10, 2013 Same problem here.I've noticed it only happens when I enter places that spawn zombies.. so maybe zombie spawning is the cause.Anyway, I've yet to find a fix, and I doubt there is one. Unfortunately zombie/loot spawning isn't very CPU-friendly.I'm sure this will be fixed or better optimized in the standalone. Only time will tell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mos1ey 6301 Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) @OP - Did you start playing on a different server by any chance?@Cowboy - In the standalone all zombies and possibly loot will be spawned in on server restart. Edited March 10, 2013 by mZLY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jamaljenkins 0 Posted March 10, 2013 Seems to be doing it on all servers. I've been trying to fix it all day. I was playing yesterday with no problems at all so I'm not sure what it could be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mos1ey 6301 Posted March 10, 2013 Connection problem maybe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jamaljenkins 0 Posted March 10, 2013 Don't think so. I can play all of my other games with no problem and my internet isnt lagging at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mos1ey 6301 Posted March 10, 2013 ARMA eats up a fair bit of bandwidth compared to other games so connection problems or inconsistancies are more noticeable. Have you tried rebooting your router? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jamaljenkins 0 Posted March 10, 2013 Yes and I did a bandwith test and everything seems to be fine with my internet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elf cakes 559 Posted March 11, 2013 it could be the temperature, i had a similar problem a while ago on my laptop and found that it was getting extremely hot while playing dayZ. there are programs to download that tell you your pc/laptops temperatures etc. that may tell you the source of your problem. you if it's not that, then there's a huge variety of things it could be.
