Suddenly slow load times

[risky 0]

Hi, 

 

As of today, i have been getting some abnormally long loading times. I timed it earlier, from me hitting connect on DayZ Commander to actually being able to move my character, it takes 10 minutes on average. Once i get in and play it's fine, if i die and reconnect it's just like it always used to be, but the initial load in has just went downhill.

 

I have tried Regular DayZ servers, Origins, DayZero, Epoch, Breaking Point, they're all doing the same thing. It's the load screen with the bar on the bottom that seems to take up the majority of the time, before it would tend to jump up in quite large increments but now i have to sit and watch the bar move pixel by pixel which is brutally slow. After it gets past the screen with the bar, into receiving and setup completed etc. it's perfectly fine again.

 

I have a fairly good rig so i'm pretty sure that's not the cause of the issue, especially since it was fine until last night when i installed origins and epoch through DayZ Commander, played Origins, loaded normally, came online today and was met with this issue.

 

Here is another thread i found which also has the same issue, however there was no replies to say how it can be solved: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/80383-arma-2-10-minute-launch-20-mins-to-connect-to-a-server/

 

System Specs:

Windows 7 64-bit

Intel® Core i7  960  @ 3.20GHz,

6GB RAM

Crossfire 5870's

 

 

 

Please note I have reinstalled literally everything to do with DayZ today before testing it again. Fresh installs of Arma 2, Arma 2: OA, DayZ, Origins, DayZero, Epoch and tested them all to see if the problem was solved but it wasn't.

 

Any help to fix this irritating issue would be much appreciated.

 

Cheers.

Verify your game mate! (if you have it through Steam) It might be because one of your files is raising red flags with BattlEye/the server and you need to make sure all of your files are in "out of the box" condition. Sorry if that doesn't help; best of luck to ye!

Yeah just tried verifying, Steam redownloaded 1 file but having the same issue still.

Do you have ArmA 2 on an SSD or standard hard drive?
