Arma 3 weird freezing/slow loading times when connected to internet

Recommended Posts

Whenever I am playing the virtual arsenal, editor, or the campaign whenever I am connected to the internet I get long load times when I pause, open the gear, loading a map, and using the interaction menu from AGM. This only happens when I am connected to the internet. I have tried playing without the ethernet cable plugged into my computer and its almost flawless. This is really weird as I only experience this in singleplayer. I do not play multiplayer that much. Mostly singleplayer. How does me being connected to the internet make my singleplayer gameplay slow? I am running the latest version of Arma 3.

How does me being connected to the internet make my singleplayer gameplay slow?

Probably some program (Steam/Windows Update/uTorrent/some streaming service) starts to actively use the disk (downloading or uploading data) on which your Arma 3 is installed thus increasing texture/data load times. Try closing all Internet-related programs before launching Arma and see if it will solve the problem.

Does not matter if I turn off programs that use internet, only solution seems to be is to play without the internet connected. But now the load times slowly increase in time even when i am not connected to the internet now. So when im playing the singleplayer the more i seem to pause the game, the longer the load times are. Any ideas on how to fix?
