Guild Wars 2

So i don’t play this game a lot, like next to never but i like to log on every now and then on my lvl 29 charr which i have had for like 3 years now (yes i know lol) Last time i played i had 70 fps on max settings, now though it reccomends half of the things on low and half on high and runs bad with drops to 40 and mid 20’s. I don’t know what has changed from my knowledge nothing has.

I7 2.6 GHZ
16GB RAM
GTX 960M 4GB

specs should not be the problem as the game ran well before but i thought i’d post them anyways.

You’ll have to unhide both folders. Your graphics will all reset, but keybinds will not.

this will fix it. I don’t know why no one from support answered your question.

The engine has changed, so it seems. Many are experiencing a drop in FPS. You might have more luck with the 32-bit client, rather than the new 64-bit client. Some have found the change in clients caused issues; some did not.

I’m not sure resetting your preferences will make any difference, but it may. You can also do it by adding the Command Line Argument, -prefreset.

As a note, the Tech CS Team answers all support tickets submitted, but rarely just posts on the forums.

Good luck.

I noticed a pretty big drop in zerg fights any area where theres alot of players around..My fps dips to 15 lowest,that never happend before where it usually stayed atleast 30+.Ive tried reinstalling drivers but it didn’t help.The issue just came out of the blue,and cant figure out why.
