Game Updates: Traits

How about this idea:
Instead of just giving a specific trait when someone does one of those challenges, he gets a token, so he could choose which trait he gets.
So the idea of seeing the world and everything in it is still there (since you would have to do that for all traits) but the player would still have the option to choose which trait he would like to have.

(But I would still like to have the old system back, where you could experiment because you don’t have to go and collect them like pokémons.)

To keep it simple.
I like the fact that you just need to do 3 dailies to get about 10 AP.
I don’t like the fact that these dailies are sometimes forcing me to go to places I don’t like or do things I don’t like that evening.

My take would be to get the old ones back (the ones from the beginning) or just combine them with a specific theme. As an example: Do 4 Events in Diessa Plateau, Ascalon Forager and Ascalon Veteran Killer. That way you could do all of them in one map and still have fun without being forced to stray too much from your own path in the game.
And a bit more PVE dailies would be nice. It’s not everyones cup of tea to play against other players and the other way around. So a bit more options would be nice.

Sound problems while playing the game

I used the sliders, moved everything to zero, moved everything to full to no avail. I tried what you suggested but it already was at 24bit 48k. I tried 24/96 and 16/48 but the noise was still there.
The thing is that I hear lower static in the character screen. I guess I haven’t paid attention to it before, but as soon as the intro music sets in it’s kind of gone.

Okay, after testing some more games it seems that this is a hardware problem not connected to GW2. As soon as my GeForce is in use the static gets louder as the card is used more.
So I guess this thread can be closed. Seems I need another PSU…

After getting my new GTX 660 TI i was thrilled that GW2 looked that amazing – I was using a GeForce 8600 GT before switching to the new card. But after i plugged in my sound system I got noise as soon as I was playing the game. Loading Screens and Character Screen are okay but as soon as I’m ingame I get some static noise. And well it’s driving me crazy. Even muting the whole sound in windows doesn’t fix the problem. Only way to get rid of the noise is to unplug the whole sound system.

I’m using Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit, Realtek HD Audio and a Gainward GeForce GTX 660 TI with the 306.23 WHQL Driver I just downloaded yesterday. I tried Sins of a Solar Empire and there was no noise. I also tried to repair GW2 but the noise is still there.

Any suggestions how to fix this?
