Guild Wars 2

Habib Loew: Hah, yeah we have seen a lot of the skepticism on the Internet. The change we made in January was really just a tweak to the system. It changed the priorities of Culling but did not eliminate it. The change in March will turn off Culling completely. You will now see every character within range of you. There will be several different options for how other players are presented to you, on the client side that you can choose from so you can control how it works for you.

I have a I5 2500k at 4.4 ghz clock speed, with a 560 GTX. It’s in the middle-high range of PC specs, I would think. I get 10 FPS during intensive 30 vs 30 zerg battles. If culling is completely off, how many FPS exactly will we get? Is it going to be worse than usual?

Will there be any improvements on FPS in the future? Is my card the limiting factor in Zerg vs Zerg?

How can you have such terrible FPS during 30v30 battles with a PC like that? What are your graphic settings?

Mostly low to medium settings, all reflections, shadows and animation set to nothing or low. Shaders are medium, textures high. LOD low. I think 60 people casting spells at one go is the real problem.

PvE settings like FOTM can go with high settings at 60 FPS.
