Yeah i just said ill play single player for now till i learn the game. DAO server is the most lag free server I've played so far and when i know the game I will probably play there for a bit. The Airplanes and Helicopters really interest me they seem like they would be really fun online when you know how to properly fly them.

well they need to disallow mods or something, cause shooting at something then it teleports a few feet away is unplayable. Ill stick with the DAO server for now seems pretty cool, but im such a newb i'll probably play single player first till i know how to play.

Only solution i see from that is looking into what MTU is. I don't have any mods installed i just have arma 2 and OA

oh oops yeah ill run as CO and try now. ---------- Post added at 06:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:56 PM ---------- Ok i tried the DAO server it doesn't lag at all but only like 15 people were playing. But then i tried another server it had 36 people and it lagged a bit. I don't know if maybe CO is working right for me now, or if DAO is modless and the other servers have mods i need and it lags cause i don't have them or something? They all seem like dedicated servers they have a lot of players they shouldn't lag. But they do. But yeah CO lags a lot less compared to JUST Arma 2 servers and OA servers I've tried. and DAO server doesn't lag at all.

Yeah every game i play on the server browser i always check for the most people with like a couple spots left with a good ping, but with this game like every server i try everyone skips around a lot, i just tried one called tfb and it was a little better it was a 36 person server but they still skipped a bit. Your DAO server i cant join because it says I'm missing some dlc. I just got arma 2 and OA no dlcs.

Hi i just got Arma 2 today on steam. I played single player scenarios and it doesn't seem to lag. But then i tried playing online and like every server i play on before i join my ping is below 80ms but when i get in game everyone is skipping around its totally unplayable. I read try turning off vsync and i did that and mouse smoothing but people still skip around. I'm on cable internet all other games run fine just not this one. My max download is like 2.5MB/s and upload like 400kbs. My system specs are fine i know its not that, its something to do with my internet, any help would be appreciated. My CPU is Q6600 Quad @ 2.40ghz, Vid card is Geforce Gtx 260 896 mb ram, Ram 3 gigs, OS windows xp pro SP3, i do have 4 gigs of ram in but only 3 useable cause of 32 bit. I have the same exact problem in Operation Arrowhead, they are both unplayable online. Thanks In advance
