Riku (DayZ) 0 Posted July 24, 2012 Hi ! I'm new here and I wanted to know... I'm having some hard time launching the game : When i'm connecting to a server, it takes about 20min to load my character. Is that normal ???It's a bit annoying...Thank you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Filmmaster 35 Posted July 24, 2012 My computer is nice and it still takes a while to load. Depending on your computer, yes, that's normal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deftallica 0 Posted July 24, 2012 Are you exaggerating or is it seriously taking 20 minutes?Because I would say, yes, long loading times are normal. But my definition of "long" is about a minute, maybe minute and a half. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zeedee49 2 Posted July 24, 2012 Depending on the server the wait times to load in are different if you continue to have trouble with it let me know and come on over to my server :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But my definition of "long" is about a minute, maybe minute and a half.Not exaggerating. It seriously take between 10 to 20 minutes to load ... :/ My computer is pretty decent I guess.. I can run the game in very high quality so... must be the servers ? The fastest one was a french one ( i'm french) maybe it's because of the distance ?

Make sure you're choosing one with a low, low green number. Other than that I'm not sure what the problem would be if your PC is able to use the high graphic settings.Try to run as few other programs in the background as you can. Close web browsers, anything non-essential. Make sure you don't have any downloads going or anything else that may be stifling your connection. Perhaps check to see if your hard drive needs to be defragmented. Those are all the things I would try. If none of it works, I'm sorry, you'll have to find someone more tech savvy than me. :-/ lol Edited July 24, 2012 by Deftallica Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

clay_pigeon 37 Posted August 5, 2012 I know that if some servers do not restart for a long period of time, it may affect the loading time and the FPS. On freshly restarted servers I get 10 seconds character + loading time and 80+ FPS while on others I get a longer loading time and around 60 fps. On servers who get restarted manually and didn't restart for a long time I wait around 3-4 minutes for it to load and my FPS drops to 30-40. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chaldeus 0 Posted August 6, 2012 I was getting right in games until the last update....now it's an average of 5 mins to actually load. My computer is beast, and it only started in the last week or so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
