Guild Wars 2

I play on a laptop, and whenever i’m in wvw, i set my video settings to “Best performance” after the 4/30 update, i logged and found out that settings reset to “Show enemy colors only”. I tried changing it to “Show no team colors” ( [None] in the settings) and it only made it show both, allies and enemy colors. I switched to higher settings and it was working just fine, but when i set it back to ‘Best performance’ it went back to [Show all team colors] instead.
Fix this please.
Seeing all those blue/red/green masses with all their helmets and shoulderguards (Even though they have them disabled, they don’t show on higher settings) just makes this look ugly, killing every desire to play.

just noticed. Even humanoid minis that wear armor (Seraph, Svanir, Balthazar) start wearing team colored Ascalon Catacombs looking armor with shoulderguards and helmets. Come on, guys… :/

it’s due to the low wvw character quality, less customized character models are shown

You have to adjust the WvW quality settings on the number of detailed models shown. The first one is how many players to display on screen and the second is how many of the displayed players do you want to see their actual detailed armor appearance. I would suggest starting at medium/medium and then adjusting it up and down based on what you like.

to me, it’s an obvious bug. It wasn’t that way before the update. You can still choose between “Show enemy team colors”, “Show all team colors”, “Show none”. But these options just don’t work. If they wanted it that way, i’m quite sure they would simply make them not clickable for the ‘Best Performance’ settings.

i’ll try that.
