Guild Wars 2

Ok so as i said a week ago in a different post ever since the weekly maint last thursday i have had 5 fps anywere on the map with th egame running in slow motion with robot sex for sound now before anyone gives advice or opinions i have run this game before that date with 40fps + on highest settings anywhere in the world it is not hardware or driver related i have tried multiple g card and motherboard drivers old and new all other highend games run as they are supposed to with no driver or hardware crashes all loads and tempuratures are completely normal i have repaire and re downloaded the entire game and i have tried on a new OS on a seperate drive on this computer bf3, dishonoured, arma 2, LoL, ApB are all running normal with 40+ fps on highest settings guild wars 2 is the only thing on my computer that refuses to run after running so well since launch any advice or even anyone with same problem is much appreciated i have laso submitted a support ticket to which i was asked to take multiple benchmark and specifications tests which i uploaded and they had agreed i should be getting much higher fps

Well rickie its your CPU…..wait or is it your GPU? Well I have forgoten what the community is claiming this week is the bad part.

In the the Beta I used to get 70 fps and now I get 40 fps most of the time. Its A-Net great codeing that is makeing you get the great Frame Rate of 5

see thats the kind of kitten i want to hear im just looking for reassurance that it is not coming from my end because i am going insane taking my piece of kitten apart trying gto figure out the cause off this issue and its going to end with me accidentally breaking my hardware ;(

It actually can be either depending on your system. But then again, that would be evident if you actually followed such posts closely.

@rickie, It’s sounds is if maybe some of the game files got corrupted during that last patch. Have you tried repairing the game files?

yea i did a full repair and an entire new download and install

Have you checked the ping to the game servers to see what kinda ping times your getting?

latency is actually the only thing unaffected when on guild wars lol

This may seem a stupid question, but when was the last time you did a full power down reboot? I know it seems simple but you’d be surprised how many issues I’ve seen fixed by a power down reboot.

In fact I had a similar issues in another MMO not too long ago and it went away after a reboot.

i clean my comp with advanced system care pro and reboot everyday before school

im running on 6gb ram, ati hd 6850, and an amd 6 core processor i bought 3 weeks ago which ran the game perfectly fine up until last thursday im not going to say the name of the processor because i dont want some kitten with a 600$ processor talkin kitten on how thats my problem when it has actually worked really well for the price of it

Well there are only a few AMD 6 core processors so I don’t think it’s much of a secret. Besides, those people don’t actually know what they are talking about. I run an AMD Phenom II Black edition and have never had any problems running any games at highest settings. Same with GW2, and typically get around 70-80 FPS average.

That said, I run a similar setup as you (dual HD 6850’s) and am stumped as to what could be the issue. It sounds like a latency issue. You haven’t changed anything at all just prior to this happening? No new application installations? Running all the latest drivers?

Hi groundhog – I’d like to collect a Network Diagnostic report from you. To do this, please follow the steps below:

1. Navigate to your Guild Wars 2 folder.

2. Right-click on “GW2.exe” and select “Create Shortcut.”

3. Right-click on “GW2.exe – Shortcut” and select “Rename.”

4. Rename this file to “Guild Wars 2 Diagnostic.”

5. Right-click on “Guild Wars 2 Diagnostic” and select “Properties.”

6. Locate the “Target” line and add the following to the end " -diag"
Your target line should look like this: “C:\Gamse\Guild Wars 2\GW2.exe” -diag

7. Click “Ok” to save your changes.

8. Double click “Guild Wars 2 Diagnostic” to start the test.

Once completed, please click “View Results” and save the results to a text file on your desktop. Once saved, please attach that to the thread for review.

Give this a try and post the results here.

Are you using the authenticator?

i am doing the Diagnostic now and i noticed whenever i do these guild wars 2 advisors and diags that the ‘’tracing network paths’’ takes a really long time compared to the other area’s amd authenticator ?

here are the results

also here are my speedtest results http://www.speedtest.net/result/2260434634.png

No, the Google Autneticator used for Guild Wars 2 for dual autnetication. If you don’t know what it is then your not useing it. I asked because there seems to be an issue with people using the authenticator and constantly getting disconnected from the game. It sounds like a possible similar issue with what might be happening with you. When people removed the authenticator they stopped getting disconnected.

guess its time to sell my guild wars 2 account i dont have the slightest clue on what it could be on my end especially when every other game and application is running normally all i can do is wait for them to undo w.e they did on their end and judging by what ive been reading people havent been able to play since release im not patient enough for that guess its time to go play Tera ;(

Ok, seeing some higher than normal ping times in there and a few 100% packet losses during traceroute. This seems to jive with other people having connection issues. I am going to wait until I get home and run this from my system and see what I get, then compare the two. I’m still leaning towards some connection/latency issues.

ok i didnt know latency could do that to your fps though ;( the skill and chat response times are perfectly normal other then the fps

Yes if it’s a latency issue it should be affecting all aspects of game play (chat and skills included). Hm, still interested in what the results of my diag would be. Not sure what it could be if not latency then. I had a very similar issue in LotRO. Extremely low FPS no matter what settings I used. It turned out to be the particular GPU I was using. I even went so far as to exchange it 3 times with no results. It was an Nvidia card so I traded it for an monetarily equivalent AMD card and the game ran fine.

Not saying it’s your card, because in my case it was a new card that I hadn’t previously used with the game. Your case is different. The only other thing I can suggest is to submit a help ticket.

well was just playing planetside 2 with all settings high with 30-80 fps stuff like that is leading me to believe this is arena nets side
