Not sure if it's patch issue or comp is bleh?

Just downloaded ARMA/DayZ. So excited to play....EXCEPT when after fixing everything I enter the server to notice I have 5-10 FPS...Unplayable I know for sure. Surprisingly still killed a zombie with that bad of FPS.

Now this is my first time with ARMA 2 on this comp and I'm just wondering if my computer can't handle it or it's just the patch issue everyone's talking about.

Here are my specs. Every other game I get no FPS droppage.

AMD FX 6100 6 Core Processor 3.3 GHz

Nvidia GeForce GTX 560

8GB RAM

DirectX11

Trust me, it's not your computer, my graphics card is worse than yours and I can get 30-50 fps at times.

It's all the patch's fault, I've had this similar problem with every single dallas server except for recently, dallas 19. I log in and I get 5-10 fps and can't play so I simply leave in hopes of finding some other server.

This is what you should do, just keep finding servers that you would have a good connection to and join them, you should be able to find a server you're able to run well eventually.

One thing that helped fix this problem for SOME servers, not the dallas servers other than 19 was completely quitting out of the game and restarting it. I'm sure the FPS problem is pretty high on the priority list for rocket so hopefully we should be able to connect to all servers in the near future with good fps.

Yah I'm not EXTREMELY tech savvy so I'm not sure if I just had a bad combination of comp parts but I do run every other game well so I assumed/hoped it was just the patch.

I've tried multiple servers. Nothing good yet though sadly. Hope they get the fix out soon!

The bad fps issue is to do with some anti-hack coding put into the game, should be fixed soon.

90% of servers = infinite waiting for server response (eventually either session lost or debug forest, unable to do anything).

The few servers I actually get in = locked to 10 fps.
