xRecklessRobx 2 Posted July 10, 2013 I don't get it. I don't lag at all in Arma 2, and can run the game on high settings. Then when I go to play DayZ, I get like 15 to 20 frames per second, when I'm NOT in a big city. I've looked at all those Youtube videos that tell you have to increase your FPS in DayZ, but none of them helped, and I still lagged. Can someone tell me why this is?

Hosty 647 Posted July 10, 2013 Desync, Zombies, Loot, Vehicles, lots of players, bad optimization. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thengeance 19 Posted July 10, 2013 Lag and FPS are different. If you're lagging, you have a bad connection displayed by high latency. If you have poor frames, it's because this mod is not optimized and requires lots of data processing, whereas Arma is a finished product.I had luck by cranking the settings down (except resolution/3d objects). Not rendering textures from as far away has given me a great boost in frames. Unfortunately, you just have to play around with it and wait for a better performance from SA (hopefully).
