You could still rebind them, hell I use Q E R X C for my skills and 12345 for my abilities.

I was at first going to answer with this too… but it doesn’t solve the OP’s problem. If they want a CC on 5, for instance, the CC is currently different depending on the weapon. This means each time they log in a new toon, they’d have to reassign their keybindings.

That is very true, kittenilber said more options, people love options. Edit what is kittennibler? I said silber.

Even without changing colors/saturation/etc you can use sweetfx to get rid of the blurriness of the vanilla game, which is incredibly nice

That’s the only use of it that I endorse. Most of them are awful, the one you linked literally changes the time of day. Turning storm clouds into a clear day.

I tried using several presets and custom ones, the different areas/locations already have drastically different colour pallets to match the overall mood adding a general preset over the top of that ruins it, nothing I did made the game look better only worse. I use sweetfx on tons of other games but with Gw2 I stick to vanilla.

Any tips at all? I want to keep playing I was going to buy the expansion.

“broken” seems to be the running theme with Arenanet.

Oddly enough, when I search the forums for “fps” or “frame rate” only my post shows up. That is strange.

As I said Ive tried all the obvious things like background programs etc. It’s a shame because the game is really fun I just cant get over the inconsistent and unexplainable performance. I play rift like 80+fps on everything max beyond the ultra preset even. Its really not acceptable. Arena net clearly doesnt give two kittens either.

Ive had Gw2 since just after launch, stopped playing for a varied reasons.
I recently bought myself a new gaming rig and decided to go back.
Here are my specs

i7 4970k
geforce gtx 980
8gb ram

My framerate in game is wholly inconsistent and drops close to 30fps in some ares while maintaining the 60fps its capped at via v sync most of the time (v sync on or off makes no difference to my framerate so I use it to stop screen tearing). Unless I turn the camera quickly. Bottom line is the gameplay is not smooth, it feels stuttery and the drops don’t seem to coincide with anything in particular.

All other games run amazingly I am extremely impressed with my system, Ive tried the normal etc reinstalling graphics drivers running with no background program etc.
So I dont really know what to do now, I don’t intend to continue playing if this is the performance I can expect from a game that really doesn’t look very good.

If anyone has any ideas please let me know.
