Arma Reforger - Update 1.2
Not using mods
PC
Having played AR for several months, I'm now experiencing a total freeze during official server conflict matches (48/48). Usually, after about 15 minutes, but sometimes later, all characters, including AI, will freeze, leaving me/ my avatar in the game but not synced in real time, with an increasing loss of functionality—unable to open doors, change weapons, drive a vehicle, or do anything.
In essence I am rendered a ghost in a frozen server. The only thing I can do is exit the server. A few times, I've had the message server cannot be found/ or lost/ or does not exist. Other times I try to re-enter the server only I'm to be blocked reconnection.
It's a bit confusing, but it seems like the freeze happens when I'm near other players, not AI. This makes the game unplayable. I've tried everything I can think of, from checking drivers to reinstalling the game. I hoped the new update would fix this, but it still needs to.
I am trying to figure out what to do.
UPDATE: Not sure if this is relevent. I live and play from UAE (I'm British). I join EU servers. Despite the higher ping 120ms better for me to enjoy mostly english speaking.
