I am just getting back into dayz again but as I was playing It started lagging and nothing seems to fix it, It's not the server lags in singleplayer as well.
The annoying thing is I was able to play it without any lag on the highest settings and now it's completely unplayable. Maybe I should reinstall?

make sure your antiviruses arent running scans, and i would only use one so uninstall most of them

[diamondclubs]

Yeah I disable all of them while playing, and that doesn't explain why it just started happening out of nowhere.

Dayz main hive is slow and slows down every server if you want better fps play a privet hive or a diff map.

[Josh225]

Try different servers, turn down your settings, google how to change your config file to increase fps if you have to, shadows disabled, stop programs in background, do a re-install to clean up game files, ran out of things to say.

Yeah I do play on a private hive. Tried a bunch of different servers/singleplayer they all lagged just wondering if there is any techs that know why this would suddenly start happening.
Arma 2 and oa are installed on my 120g ssd (solid state drive). I am already reinstalling oa hopefully it will fix it.

My brothers computer has the exact same specs as mine and it runs very smooth on the highest settings possible.
This is so frustrating...

Mine has just started doing this too. One day it was fine, came home and went to play again, FpS is suddenly so low it's unplayable :/

Iv got pretty much the same as you except for a GTX 670. Runs flawless while in the Woods, but in the big citys it can drop a bit

[darkstaride]

Probably, it's the server who's causing the low fps.
I learned that if the server has more than 200+ ping, it causes lag.
I had personal contact with 200+ping plus low fps.
( Lowest fps 5)

Yeah but it's the same for singleplayer and servers I play on are usually around 35ping or less.
And reinstalling both arma 2 and oa didn't work.

It isn't. You wanted to know what I was talking about.

If re installing ArmA doesn't work, then re installing windows won't either,
