They just didn’t anticipate the move to 4k.
I’m on Mac, so even if I have a 4k screen the mac Client barely runs at a playable fps even in 1080p.
Just a suggestion:
I have a 4K Mac too, and played on the Mac Beta client for a year (3 years prior on a MacBook Pro). I finally installed Boot Camp and made a Windows 10 partition with GW2 on it … and I’ve never looked back. It runs INCREDIBLE at maximum everything in graphics settings. I tried the new Mac client and it just doesn’t compare.

For GW2, the wow would be mounts, love them or loathe them. Not unique to MMO’s for sure but a wow nonetheless for GW2.
The mounts might not be unique, but it’s a very different approach than most mounts take, which is something I appreciate. I haven’t played much WoW, but I think their mounts are more like two-staged acquisitions: the ground mount, which gets you across land faster, and the air mount, which allows you to fly over obstacles. Meanwhile, the PoF mounts each have a specific use and while some overlap, each will have a situation where one is clearly better than the others.
I think the fact that we’re going back to Elona might be a bit of a wow factor for some players, those who remember Nightfall and have fond nostalgia for that. There’s also that option for players who weren’t interested in HoT to go straight to PoF, not needing any of the content from it to complete the story. Most games when they offer an expansion will expect you to have the previous ones for a long while or lock you out of the content entirely.
THIS too.
PoF is a content expansion, HoT was a mechanic expansion. This means that HoT introduced new ideas and new ways to expand the game that would be used in future expansions, while PoF uses those new mechanics to give us more content. This means that they are giving us more things that already existed in HoT, instead of brand new. New elite specs, new mastery points, a new GH and so on
Raids and fractals are coming, that’s been confirmed on the forums, but they didn’t announce those because apparently, they are not part of the expansion but part of the living world, which has a separate release schedule.
THIS.
There IS hope for this … as they just did this for the new Mistlock Sanctuary. You go to the portal that has all the Tyria city ports, and one option is to return to the location where you scrolled into the Mistlock Sanctuary. Perhaps they will do this for the other exclusive lounges as well in the near future.
Now if only they made these places “return to the map you ported in from” with a UI exit button/panel, like the sPvP lobby.
I thought it was quite easy, tbh… and I’m no pro player, either.
The trick in LWS3 E4 is to stay in the air. Also, during the part were you need to break the anomalies, clear a small portion of the surroundings from destroyers.
Good luck.
I think you meant E5 …..
That’s a really good point, Drarnor! It would have been just that little bit more impressive to have some race-based differences.
This was, by far, my favorite episode of LS3…. favorite map of LS3… favorite new mastery… and most FUN final “boss” fight of ANY story instance. Massive props to ANet for this one! Can’t wait to see what they have in store for us in the final episode.
This is by far the most impressive map of the new season. Zero problems getting around… and the new mastery is SO MUCH FUN.
Do you have the new mastery? 
I highly doubt Zinn made his own tombstone
Same problem here. I just bought all of the Living Story 2 with gems to complete all storylines… stuck now and can’t complete Episode 7 because of this bug. :-\
Same here. I’m getting really sick and tired of seeing well-known EXTREMELY-WELL-DOCUMENTED bugs in this game that the developers are REFUSING to fix. I’ve encountered 5 today so far, and this forum has clearly indicated these exact same bugs going on for 6 months, 1 year, 2 years… it’s ridiculous.
Anvil Rock server (US) here. Same problem. It works, then it boots me, then it works, then it boots me, lather, rinse, repeat…
