Server list lag
New, NormalPublic

Description

Every time I navigate the server list, there is sporadic lag time. When I first open it up upon starting DayZ, it generally takes 10 seconds before the list is populated. Then, if I sort or use any filters, it's another 5+ seconds before the UI responds and gets moving.

Same problem, using windows 10.
Server list freezes the game every 2 seconds while refreshing but it works fine when it has finished refreshing the list.

Would like to add that changing the server pooling rate from steam from 5000 to around 2500 fixes the issue.

how I do that ?

In your main Steam app window click Steam in the top left then go to Settings then go to 'In Game' then at the bottom it says 'In-Game server browser: Max pings / mintue' change that to 2500 or 1000 depending on your internet. It pools severs more slowly but that is fine if you just want to join a high pop or another low ping server.
