Or try moving M4 somewhere else... Sometimes the turret gets stuck in some invisible crap. Also happend to me couple times while playing MP mission. And yes as Sgt.Spoetnik said, min fire distance is bigger then with a Mortar but on the other hand M4 can fire from one side of the Altis to another.

Well I was able to play on MP server for about 15 mins with pbo file edited + some startup parameters when suddenly my FPS dropped to 4 and character got that funny syndrome. CPU and GPU is not overheating. It must be something with my 4gb ram. Obviously 4gb ram is no longer enough for Arma or is it CPU?

Btw can I play on MP with BattlEye on with edited pbo to pbox? I don't want to get global banned.

It fixed the lod loading. But while driving in some big cities, FPS still drops to 1-2 (at least for me) but Tiger's option really works... I get same FPS on Altis as on Stratis. Actually I can finaly explore the whole Altis! But only on a dirt roads because changing pbo to pbox removes all the roads and makes dirt roads only :p

Sorry mate but I was too fast at typing and slow at thinking and testing... I wrote it here right when I entered the first city and didn't get 1-2 fps as usualy. After 2 mins I got 1-2 fps SO I AM REALLY SOORY!. Stick with Tiger's option. But something had to be changed because I could explore one whole city without any problems... It fixed the lod loading. But while driving in some big cities, FPS still drops to 1-2. PS. Tiger's option really works... I get same FPS on Altis as on Stratis. Actually I can finaly explore the whole Altis!

Edit: No fps issue still occures.

Just go and read this thread mate: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?162402-1-2-FPS-on-Altis-and-60-fps-on-stratis&p=2480793#post2480793 This problem is related to 32bit OS. Bis is already trying to find solution how to fix it.

Well I am asking myself the same thing since yesterday. The devs are on it with max priority so I think I will wait at least till full release and then I will see. But installing 64bit OS and adding more ram would be good too.

Yeah true, thanks a lot mate for your time and effort. Now let's hope it will be fix as soon as possible and hopefuly working without any trouble.

FPS issues in cities on Altis (even the smallest ones) So I tryed everything and nothing really helped to solve my problem. I have a weird issue with FPS. I have around 60-70 fps when outside the city and as soon as I enter the city my FPS drops to 1-5 FPS so the game becomes completely unplayable. No matter if I leave the city or not, it will never get back to normal. I always have to alt + f4 my game because its impossible to close it in any other way. I can run every showcase with decent 45+ FPS. I can play wasteland with 45 ppl on with 35+ FPS. It simply isn't happening on Stratis. I can play on Stratis without any problems. Huge firefights and explosions in the city on Stratis isn't problem. I still have more than 35 FPS. I even have around 60 FPS on Altis but when I enter the city it drops to 2 fps. Same thing happens to me in arma 2. So the problem appears only in Arma 2 and cities on Altis. All my drivers are up to date. I tryed messing with my ingame options. I use startup parameters: -nologs -world=empty -cpucount=4 -exThreads=7 -maxMem=2047 and I also edited file (GPU_MaxFramesAhead=1; GPU_DetectedFramesAhead=1) My specs: Operating System: Windows 7 Professional 32 Bit Motherboard: Asus M4A88TD-V EVO Processor AMD Phenom II X4 965 black edition OC 3893 MHz Memory Kingston 2GB KIT DDR3 1333MHz CL7 HyperX x2 (4gb ram) Video Card GTX 660Ti HDD: WDC WD2500AAKS-00UU3A0 ATA Device So I will appriciate any help! Do I need to upgrade my ram from 4 to 6-8? Reinstall windows? Faulty or crappy HDD (slow reading/writing?) Please help.

Thanks a lot mate!

What I tested with some friends is that the problem must be really in 32bit OS. My friend running Altis on his dual core processor with 4gb ram can run the game perfectly fine but on win 8 64bit OS. I have a lot more better PC with win 7 32bit OS and the game when I enter some areas or even smallest city which isn't even equal to Agia Marina on Stratis my game becomes unplayable with 1-2 FPS so I always have to alt + f4 the game coz its only the way how to close it because of massive performance drop. Even If I manage to close the editor main menu is still lagy and its impossible to do something there. Altis just completely screws the whole game. And the reason why the poll is unclear is as mentioned before that the question should be little bit different because ppl are voting for something they don't really have. Problem is when you have like 1-4 fps on Altis and the game is completely unplayable and not when you have less FPS on Altis than on Stratis. I am sure it has something to do with 32bit OS.

Well I compared my specs with some other friends and I kinda realized is that it really doesn't matter which CPU and GPU you have in this case. My friend running Altis on his dual core processor with 4gb ram can run the game perfectly fine but on win 8 64bit OS. I have a lot more better PC with win 7 32bit OS and the game when I enter some areas or even smallest city which isn't even equal to Agia Marina on Stratis my game becomes unplayable with 1-2 FPS so I always have to alt + f4 the game coz its only the way how to close it because of massive performance drop. Even If I manage to close the editor main menu is still lagy and its impossible to do something there. Altis just completely screws the whole game. Here is my thread with same issue but more details. Maybe you have exactly the same thing. http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?162391-FPS-issues-in-cities I am sure it has something to do with 32bit OS.

Thats exactly why that poll is unclear.

Yeah thanks mate. I found a lot of threads with same problem. It really seems it has to do something with 32 bit OS.

Could you please tell me what your HDD is?

3 things which just poped in my mind are: - If you step on a land mine I would like to hear a click but don't make it expload imidietely as it is now. Make it explode when you move again. If you keep staying on it it won't explode till you decrease pressure. Just like in real life. It would add a lot to RP. You can call E.O.D to help you out - shooting from the Littlebirds and cars would be really epic. - CQB mission - cleaning buildings, using breaching charges and shields

Well this helped a lot in Arma 2. Game was much smoother and responded better. Not sure If I got more FPS but I realized big change. Lets see what it does in Arma 3.

Throwing grenades around the corner with nice animation is really great idea.

Well I though I should try something too but after seeing this awsome art-work I can give up. Really great job guys.

Give it a shot lol

The Alpha just blows me away. Far beyond my expectations. And I'm truly amazed of graphics. The game is very smooth and CQB is is much better then it was in Arma 2. Physics (cars) needs some changing but I believe its gonna change in beta or in full game. Keep up the good work. The game is amazing!

I got it via e-mail after 6 hours of waiting yeh :p
