Lag only while playing dayz standalone

[SmurfSnortNorth 0]

Ive been playing dayz standalone for a week now and have been really enjoying it. Then one day I got into a server and everthing started to lag. My whole Internet shuts off for a minute. It causes my teamspeak to disconnect. I can play battlefield and planetside with no lag at all. Its not my computer lagging either I have a gtx 770, Intel Core I5 3.40ghz, and 16gb of ram If anyone else has this problem and could help id appreciate it.

The fact that it shuts off your internet and other programs hints that DayZ isn't the source. I'm not a computer expert, but I would guess it has something to do with your firewall or something?

Is it perhaps simply that you lost internet connection for a few minutes, which would give the appearance firstly that DayZ was lagging out, then as you alt tab out of DayZ, noticing TS logging out etc caused you to make the link?

 

In general though, lag in DayZ is to be expected due to it's early stage of development and lack of optimization.

 

You should have seen the problems people had with the mod!
