Framedrops when I move

[BrennanS 0]

Alright,so I've been able to play DayZ with no problems the past few days but today when I hopped into a server,maybe 15-20 minutes in the game the frame will start to drop drastically.I can look around at that moment but if I try to move it will drop down to 3 FPS,I'm not sure if it's because I'm on a server with NPC's but I'm seeing that alot of people on the forums are having almost the same problem

My PC Specs

Intel Core i7-3770 @3.40GHz

AMD Radeon HD 7800 Series

8GB RAM

Windows 7 Ultimate

I've tried re-install Arma 2 and Arma CO even DayZ.

It sounds to me like it's probably server related. They may have played with the coding for the NPC's or something.

If it just started, I doubt it's your pc.

Also, I have AI on my server as well and I haven't had an issues nor has anyone reported any. (Except, when I doubled the numbers in groups of AI and set 100% chance for them to spawn. That wasn't good if any z's spawned anywhere on the server. lol)

Alright,I guess it was probably the server that caused it because I tried a different server and played for hours with no framedrops.I'm using DayZ commander and already have the 103419 patch

So now is there a way to play the NPC server without lag or do I have to wait for the owner to fix it?Because I don't think any one in the server had a problem

Ask the admin to restart it every 3 hours it could be something to do with the amount of stuff stacking up and its taking it toll on the server trust me you don't want a 12 hour restart server you'll have crashed helicopters everywhere by then take a look at sevens server at 11 hours. I don't think Russia has that many helicopters at all and with the loot to its a public server but I got geared up in ten mins and started killing very soon after.
