    Guys in a helicopter with saws..... That must be hackers, or some undescribably professional people :p
    About your lag, I have no idea. Perhaps you need a better network?
    Could bots probably make you lag? The whole map is empty, you see, to prevent as less lag as possible. When a player arrives at an area where zombies tends to be, the zombies are spawned automaticly. If you stand at a distance with binoculars or a scope, you can see no zombies in the city, but if you run over there, there can suddenly be a hoard of them, even behind you. Do you lag less when in forests than when in cities?

    Also, the playerbase can make you lag. I've experienced this in minor degrees; Full servers tends to lag a little more than empty servers. At least they do to me.

    I would turn down the Quality to a lower setting, and also get some good anti-virus stuff. $20 a year for Trend Micro Titanium (that's what I use).

    Also, you may just want to get some more RAM, or just clean up your PC.

    ^ actually the developer of DayZ (it might have been the guys that were making ama3 instead) said there's a better way of making it run faster without lowering the quality. I'll try and find the link.

    Dude,sometimes the servers are just far from where you are connecting,so just try to use near servers.

    Haha, how come I didn't think of this?
    Very true. Wether the server is day or night, wether it lags least or most, is very dependable on which country it is bound to, and what country you are in.

    I think that it is actually the developers of ARMA II, though I would think it odd if they weren't the same people...

    So anyway, December release date, correct? That's what I heard.

    Bumped because i found a way to help you if (like me) dayz fps is driving you nuts

    1, open your cfg file in my documents/arma 2/
    2, in the document look for
    GPU_MaxFramesAhead=1000;
    GPU_DetectedFramesAhead=3;
    and set them both too 1 so it looks like

    GPU_MaxFramesAhead=1;
    GPU_DetectedFramesAhead=1;

    also turn off mouse smoothing in the control menu

    (thanks to the lovely people at Armaholic.com for this infomation)
