It probably takes up more resources to be connected to an MP game. I remember games in the past stating that the multiplayer experience wouldn't be as good as in SP.

Many of the settings are set based on the server (IE; view distance, terrain detail, etc), best thing you can try is to lower the resolution and see if it runs any better, also test several different servers to see if one runs better than the others (if they have AI enabled on a server it tends to slow you down)

Pardon my boldness but the best idea is to quit counting those dadblasted frames every single cotton pickin' second like your life depended on it.

If you hear nothing else please hear this--->"The very act of measuring frames slows them down. Turn OFF your frame counters and go enjoy the game." Unless you are seeing a slide show type slicker quit looking for something that will only make you crazy and lower the quality of your experience.

My FPS is capped at 33 as well. Has been on 3 builds that I have used on this game.

I can run the game full out now. Highest settings, 1680 x 1050 and I get a rock solid 33 fps that never moves. The game runs phenomenal so I'm not too pissed about it, I would just like to know how many frames I can get for my own knowledge.

I've tried everything I know and I can't figure out what the hell is capping it.

My squadmate is running a similar system and we went over every setting and matching them up and his is uncapped while mine is capped at 33.

Very strange.

Hi Folks,

Interestingly, I have the same problem as you guys. My framerate (from FRAPS) caps at 29. In cases of heavy graphics use it might dip a bit, but it never goes over 29. I tried fiddling around with the nvidia settings but can't seem to break this.

Everything looks nice but a little choppy during movement. I hope we find a solution.

My system specs are:
Core i7 - 3.33 Ghz
6 Gbyte memory
2x 8800GTS 512 SLI
Vista x64

You should be happy with 33fps , this isn't a twitch shooter.

Same here. Capped at 60 in SP, 30 in MP.

AMD 7850 @ 3.0 ghz
4 gigs kingston hyperX ram
ATI 4850 512 mb
Windows 7 64 bit

Yeah lots of people are having the same problems, hopefully they patch it out or something. An interesting thing though, last night i was on domination and it was capped at 33fps, then went on to a pvp bazerk map with around 55 players on and it was not capped and was getting nice fps of 35 to 55 fps, WIERD.

So maybee it server dependant.

Also you are right Nazul it is a more slow paced simulator than a call of duty type ..

I'd suggest giving Windows 7 RC 7100 (or the RTM) a try if you are indeed using Vista. I had the same issues as well as a few others when using Vista, where I couldn't crack that 33fps in MP regardless of any change in settings or resolution. Now I get a rather comfortable 40fps average except when I'm in the larger towns. I imagine if turn a setting or two down that it'd improve, but I'm happy with the current results. You should have something similar if not better since my card is a 9800gtx and i'm still on a Q6600, and neither are even OC'd at the moment.

Can't guarantee it'll work, but it seems anything is better than Vista when running ArmA2.
