Implying I care. Not everyone is afraid of speaking their minds just because they may get a "thorough spanking (jesus christ, seriously?)" from a mod. "btw all that nonsense you said about multiplayer being "utter crap" is simply not true." I never said multiplayer itself, content wise, was crap. It's fantastic, which makes this even more painful but people who play ARMA 2, Operation Arrowhead, DayZ, Wasteland, Domination and so on, have been reporting these types of massive and "unexplainable" performance drops in multiplayer (in comparison to singleplayer) since game's release and only fix is switching servers, which won't do much good if you're playing a not-so popular mod like Wasteland, and even then the performance is still worse than what you get with singleplayer. And no, this issue is not present in any other game (from casual FPS games like Counter-Strike to military sims like Operation Flashpoint and flight sims) that I'm playing (FPS being affected massively in multiplayer and depending on what server I am I mean). "do some research before making such sweeping generalizations." v "i for one see no performance drops and the game runs just as smoothly for me on 100 player servers as it does in single player." > not generalization, not irony -Probably live in god knows what great country -Probably have an i series processor or equievelant -Ignore everything I said And then tell me that I am wrong/doing something wrong and blatantly generalizing the issue when in fact I never even claimed that this issue affects everyone.

It has nothing to do with OP's case. ARMA 2, Operation Arrowhead and anything and everything related to its engine is utter crap when it comes to multiplayer. I get 60-90 FPS in singleplayer, yet I get 50 FPS tops in empty multiplayer servers. It's the netcode, it's how the game works and it's horrible and obviously is impossible to fix from consumer side. Also to that "guy" who asked the OP to not be juvenile and said "try to understand where the game comes from and then ''''optimize your PC according to it''''."... You are a horrible person that knows nothing about how the game works and can't keep his mouth shut for the sake of trying to look smart and knows what he's talking about as he spews bullshit that no one should buy into.
