So far, Seafarer’s rest has been absolutely amazing!

Alright then, so if your server has no players on, or few players on, they will lose badly, per your new graph – Earlier however you said that would not be the case?

You mean that not only do they gain less points when we are outmanned, they also crush us when we are outmanned?

I don’t get it.

Either you have an even (linear) curve, or you don’t. In an uneven curve, there will always be an equilibrium of perfection, where you have less people that them, and any added people to your zone will decrease your pointgain, or their pointloss, whatever way you wanna see it.

So according to your model:

If another side is beating you, the best tactic is to log out, because then they gain less points?

  • So in a few days you will see mapchat filled with randoms yelling in caps: LOG OUT YOU FFF YOU ARE BETTER USE WHEN NOT INGAME
  • You can follow that up with: No point in going to WvW, Server X doesn’t have anyone online anyway so we can’t get score.
  • Noone is allowed to go into WvW unless it’s Y o clock. Zoning in alone will hurt the server, etc etc.

You cannot fix this by making it unfair, you will just break it even more. – A little more though has to be put into it.

Id like to know where our other EU guilds are myself.

On a more personal note though, as an Alliance member myself i too have hive mind overlords who seek to restrain my right to free thought, how did you manage to break free and go against the will of your overlord?

It’s not my fault we constantly have to carry you Vegemite-eaters around on our backs all the time! Can’t blame the guy for feeling plowed.

Don’t be jealous Sky! You know you can just jump into my channel and ask for WvW lessons everyday!

HoD sweeping in WvW

You could naturally also change that around and say that the only people who are unhappy about their current WvW situation are the ones losing.

The trouble is not a population one, the trouble is that when you are taking a beating, too many are quitting while on the other hand on HoD and in TA, noone quits. There are no breaks, when we take it in the face, we go again. Everytime. Go again. Winning. We drink Tiger Blood.

I’m really happy for you, so I’m going to let you finish, but HoD has one of the best fightingspirits of all time!

dx9, no sli support and 32bit client

in Account & Technical Support

Posted by: Ernesto.7894

As far as I know and I know very little:

The only reason to use a 64-bit client would be to allow the program to use more than 2048Mb of RAM – However, GW2 never uses that much RAM, unlike Aion, which in sieges would eat up to 2Gb and then naturally crash due to buffer overflow or similar.

Crossfire/SLI is up to nvidia / AMD to fix I think. Only problem with Crossfire that I have bumped into so far, is that the map flickers and you lose crossfire capabilities until you tab in/out of the game. (Doh!).

SSD and 7970 Issues.

in Account & Technical Support

Coilwhine is very, very often due to slightly broken capasitators and it was reported as a problem with multiple Sapphire 7970 cards.

I do not know where you live, so I am unaware of your rights as a consumer in your country, but I would try to return the card and get a replacement. The latest revision seems to have reduced the problem.

About the writes etc for your SSD you should not worry. By the time it would start seriously dropping in performance, it’s time to buy a new one anyway so just go for it.

(You could make sure TRIM is enabled and defrag is turned off, you can google for that.)

Just to poke a little fun at you Mike, here is a good read!

http://www.troyhunt.com/2012/09/10-lessons-for-uncultured-web-developers.html

Just a little poking fun at the fact that you formatted the dates in a US-only manner, also a pretty decent read if you are interested =)
