Hey I was wondering if Arenanet will ever look into optimizing the game for low/average computers because at the moment it kind of sucks having to play such a beautiful and well made mmo while having everything set to the lowest.

I considered myself to have a decent computer as I could easily run most mmo’s with game settings set to high or atleast medium and be able to play with 60 fps, but with Guild wars 2 I have to set everything to the lowest just to squeeze out about 20-30 fps when soloing – I’ve had to put W v W on hold because despite how fun it was, it always became a slide-show for me because of the low fps.

I’ve tried everything from changing my graphic card settings, updating it and even testing out a lot of the game’s settings but I guess it might come down to the game needing to be optimised

I know some people might suggest I “just get an upgrade” for w/e pc components, but please try and consider the fact that not everyone can afford to just buy and upgrade their pc at any given time. Was also kind of let down since my pc passed easily when I used “Can you Run it” to test how fast it would be able to run Guild wars 2

Computer specs:
Intel® Core™ i5 CPU M 460 @ 2.53GHz
4G RAM
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470 – (512 MB Dedicated Video RAM )

512mb video card isnt enough now

I have a core 2 duo (not as good as an i5) but i have a 2gb video card and WvE is playable at medium albeit laggy
