Guild Wars 2

scootshoot.6583:

OP, been pointed out many times by the wizzes in the tech forum. GW2 basically utilizes the old GW1 engine that is optimised for DirectX 9. Direct X 9 does not utilize the latest multi core processors which is why you see the heavy CPU usage during gameplay. It will take a complete rewrite of game code to take advantage of Direct X 11 which properly utilizes 4+ cores but it’s just not gonna happen months after release.

and this brings another question “WHY?!” we live in an era of new tech.. not “fixing” an old used paper bag with duct tape…why in the hell i wanna play on a supercomputer a game made for a 486 computer?? this judgement i really don`t understand.. why using directx 9 when u know the specs that u posted… who the hell is still using directx 9 ( except WoW [but i believe that even they changed to directx 11=> don`t know for sure so don`t yell at me] )

ps. Release date(s) August 28, 2012 in 5 months u can think of making a change that can be in the best interests of your game..

Did you check you network ping? if its higher than 160 then i’m sure you will be laggy when casting spells

mate.. i have a uber internet band.. with us servers i have between 100 and 130 ms with a download rate over 5mb/s and upload 4mb/s … but again is not the internet..or the computer..
i know that the graphics are awesome in this game.. but they need to work at the engine because is not normal to have problems in WWW and not being able to see against who are you fighting.. and just spam buttons 12312312457890 … it`s not normal.. with a high end computer.. in WWW u`ll get 17fps or lower in a big battle.. that IS NOT NORMAL

Its engine problems and server, not client.. i thought people understood that.

the culling is engine base code

I had ALL your problems and were running at 30+ fps at ultra settings

you are the 1st that really knows about what i`m speaking..

yeah right! in i7 920, 8gb ram, 1kw supply, 2tb hdd, and that hd 6850 (2gb video/256 bit) i`m having problems and your giving me the tech specs that an on the site.. GOOD JOB!

aahh i forgot.. FIX THE AUDIO BUG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1st of all i wanna ask the team from anet what Uber computer should i have just to www???!!!! because tonight while i was in www ( sos-bg-jq ) i couldn`t see anything ( except when i was dead already )
2nd please upgrade ur servers beacause there is a delay on spells (ex: i heal.. after 10 sec )
3rd i`m not having networks problem of any kind.. my comp has 1 year old and in the rest of the games my proc doesn`t go over 50% of loading..

i`ll apreciate a true answer to my question .. what are your specs that u want us to have just to be able to play in www?!?!?!?!!? btw my video card is Ati Radeon 6850 hd.. and when i`m in www i`m playing on low just because ur servers are TO BAD!
sry…that`s the truth.. and yeah IS MY POINT OF VIEW…

No grind (any type) = no money.

GW2 is a “money makes the world go round” game. GW2 is a grinding game…an ingenius one that hides it well…atleast at the start. Then u realize they lied to us when they said “no grinding” in gw2.

I want a game that doesn’t revolve around the pure definition of grinding.

Imagine if they included shoes in the cash shop….just………………imagine!

oke… it`s 21 nov 22:33 in romania now.. and again i`m gonna ask… when us ( 1.100 ) players that reported not receiving any chest because of the disconnects, glitches, or client crashed.. ??? when we gonna have the chance of getting our self deserved precursor? if you can tell me this.. then i`m gonna say that it worth 2h of my time.. until then… IT DIDN’T worth the effort!

The only solution i think they can do is send everyone mail’s with a 20 slot bag >_>

( i dont think they will give more “free” exotics and rares )

Good Luck guys !!

no offense.. but i don`t want a 20 slot bag.. if i want a 20 slot bag i`m gonna buy one.. i want my high chance at that PRE… DUSK or Down or whatever one…

oke, we are gonna wait.. but do you really think that ANET will give us the chance that we could get a freaking precursor? i don`t think so.. i personally know some guys that managed to do this event TWICE!!!! meanwhile us… THE rest of people.. were disconnected/client error or couldn’t logged in our account.. so … WHAT about us?!? i personally don`t like the idea of 1 time event.. instead you could do something like 1 time per account.. that i believe is the best choice.. anyway… let us have a freaking chance at a precursor..
