Guild Wars 2

Be careful Kemaro, you may not be aware of what happend during the Diablo 3 launch where ATI really messed up one of their driver updates and rendered the game unplayable.

Its not always in your best interests to update to the latest drivers, especially for ATI users who get poor support in their drivers.

Speculate all you want on this however, feel free to update whenever it comes out, just don’t complain when things don’t work. Its recommended that you wait at least a week after a new update has been released before updating, to identify any potential game breaking issues.

Just a tip (and I know its not going to help those that have updated) don’t update your video drivers unless you have problems in the first place, this is especially true with ATI cards.

I’m going to use Diablo 3 as an example here, users were told NOT to update to the latest video card drivers upon release of the game as ATI had stuffed the driver update again.

Been playing since launch with absolutely no problems at all, had a brilliant experience up until now.

Problems started after the first of the two client updates were released today, now I am getting 10-15 second lag spikes in between combat, and cities while FPS is at about 100.

I have reset my modem to attempt to resolve this, with no luck.

I can keep a stable connection to Skype perfectly fine, so I know its not my network connectivity.

I’m quite upset now as its stopping me from playing with my friends…
