Guild Wars 2

So I log on today and it seems that the graphics look better, more defined. Was there a graphics update with the last patch or am I just tripping ?

I don’t know if it was only me, but it seems loading is faster and I did not upgrade my hardware.

I noticed the same thing pre patch. I did have a driver update that I think may have had something to do with it. Did you have an update that coincided with the patch?

You know, I also thought my game looked better. Maybe a stealth graphics upgrade hmmm??!!

They often do technical updates and performance updates in the patches. SOmetimes they are noticeable, sometimes not, but they are rarely announced. Its all part of ongoing work behind the scenes.

Companies are always doing back end work to help improve the game. But to the topic I as well noticed this and was on my way here to ask the same thing. I did a auto detect on my graphic’s and they went up some but put it back to where it was cause it still looks and play’s amazingly well at what I had it at before.

I think they changed the animation for underwater swimming too.

Yeah, I did have a driver update as well. This is interesting and cool. First time I have noticed this.

Thanks for the replies, glad to see I’m not losing it …. yet lol

Mine seems to be more laggy and takes longer to load into areas.

I had a look into this – can’t really see the difference – linked it in my video:
