Would it be possible?

For example: GW2 runs ok-good most of the time for me at an average of 30-45fps depending on the situation. However, I can’t seem to hit 20fps in HoT. I don’t mind having to dial back the graphics a bit but I think it’d be a bother having to do so for the rest of the game where it runs great.

Basically, that’s how lazy me came up with the idea. Would this be feasible?

Hmm, a global graphics setting with map specific overrides … sounds interesting.

We are heroes. This is what we do!

I don’t know how the back end would work, but since some changes require rezoning maybe some areas could be given special overrides as you said. Southsun would also benefit from this. For some reason it runs worse for me than the Maguuma areas.

if its technically possible it would be great but dunno how difficult it will be to change this

It would require saving additional graphic settings locally and apply them when the client is told what map is being loaded. And a button on the graphic options screen to set the players default settings vs applying these just to the current map.
