Guild Wars 2

What the header says, we need to be able to scale the particle effects. (like dang near every other MMO has) When there’s a large number of players with all of their spells, explosions, etc. letting loose with all of that at once the lag is, to say the least, spectacular! In WvW the lag it causes gets so bad that you cant react in any way except to die.

As eye candy it’s useless because you cant tell any individual effect from another and, personally, I couldn’t care less about how cool a special effect looks, (especially if they interfere with gameplay) I’m more concerned with playability and massive particle effects that majorly lag up the gameplay is worse than useless.

So give us a option to scale down the particle effects please.

Thank you kindly!
