Guild Wars 2

@Alpha, then answer why I have 15 fps on absolute highest settings, and 15 fps on absolute lowest settings.

^ But then why are the requirements so much lower than say bf3? If this game requires a better processer than a intel i5 750, and a better graphics card than a sapphire radeon hd 6950 toxic, it should say so on the box, which it doesn’t, this is what’s on the box:

Windows XP Service Pack 2 or Better
Intel® Core™ 2 Duo 2.0 GHz, Core i3, AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 or better
2 GB RAM
25 GB available HDD space
NVIDIA® GeForce® 7800, ATI Radeon™ X1800, Intel HD 3000 or better (256MB of video RAM and shader model 3.0 or better)

And with the amount of lag I get with my setup(10-15 fps in towns, I never dared trying wvw) I can’t imagine the slideshow someone would get with the specs listed in the requirements.

I don’t know if my computer counts as a high end or whatever, but my specs are;

Intel core i5 750 @2.67 GHz
16gb’s of ddr3
Sapphire Radeon HD 6950 Toxic

I suppose it’s decent, but still. The amount of lag I get in GW2 is outrageous. If I am to compare the specs of GW2 and say, BF3 they are as follows:

GW2:
Windows XP Service Pack 2 or Better
Intel® Core™ 2 Duo 2.0 GHz, Core i3, AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 or better
2 GB RAM
25 GB available HDD space
NVIDIA® GeForce® 7800, ATI Radeon™ X1800, Intel HD 3000 or better (256MB of video RAM and shader model 3.0 or better)

BF3 Recommended Specs:
Windows 7 64-bit
Quad-core Intel or AMD CPU
4GB RAM
DirectX 11 Nvidia or AMD ATI card, Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 or ATI Radeon 6950.
Graphics card memory: 1 GB
15 GB for disc version or 10 GB for digital version

I for one don’t see how with my specs I can play BF3 on close to highest settings with a fps of over 45, whereas I play GW2 on basically lowest settings with spikes all the way down to 9 Fps.
Don’t know if driver or me beingkitten and not getting how specs works.
