Guild Wars 2

Custom Graphics Profiles are in my opinion much needed.

Guild Wars 2 versatile as it is deserves more then just 3 fixed option settings. With all this game modes, places (WvW , sPvP, Dungeons, Fractals …) and new content that is coming out so fast, we need to be able to make a Custom Graphics Profiles in order to achieve great visual and gameplay expirience in all aspects of the game.

Everyone has a different PC and i believe that i’m not wrong when i say that we all have to change our setting more often then we would want to.
Usually i have to change everything from top to bottom after pressing autodetect or best appearance/performance in order to play in WvW or casual PvE to gain better visual experience or more FPS.

Example of using Custom Settings
If i want to record gameplay during WvW battles i would use my WvW Recording Profile with lower resolution and lowered graphics settings, and after i’m done with recording i could simply click and change Custom Profile back to my Casual WvW Settings.

Good thing in GW2 is that we can change setting very fast without having to restart the game or wait for crazy amount of time before settings would apply.

I don’t know if topic like this has already been posted because my search is not working, and sorry if my English is bad

I would second this. While my system runs ok (35-40ish) on best appearance in normal pve, world raids tend to drop the framerate horribly. On the other hand best performance just looks lame compared.

So, I’d like to be able to set my own high and low settings, and be able to switch between those, without having to manually set every setting every time. In my case “my visual” would allow framerate closer to 60 for solo pve without too much loss of visuality, and “my performance” would cut off most of the unnecessary things for raids/events/wvw/etc. without going necessarily to the extreme low on everything.

I certainly can live with the current ones extremes, but I can’t see how adding customized profiles with save option could be too difficult? Even one savable custom “preset” would be great, but I guess some people would appreciate it, if there were room in their bags for a few more
