Guild Wars 2

I never mentioned upgrading anything.
And has arena net confirmed that this is a known issue?

My last thread was closed so I will try this again.

My specs: (nothing is OC’ed)
AMD 1090t @ 3.6Ghz
16GB of DDR3 Ram @ 1300 and 9-9-9-24
Crossfire 6970 × 2. 4GB of Video Memory. GPU clock speed @ 890MHz, memory clock @ 1375MHz.
Windows 7 ultimate 64-bit.
Control Catalyst version 12.8
Internet speed 10mbit download.
Running on 1920×1080

OKAY?!

Now,
the “auto-detect” graphical settings the game gives me is everything maxed. Fine, makes sense.
But what doesnt make sense is that the game runs at 15-30 fps at the “auto-detected” settings.
Okay fine, I turned off reflections as that seemed to have the biggest impact in performance even when not close to water… Not as bad but still lags. Turned shadows to medium and that seemed to have a bit of a performance increase too.
Okay, now don’t get me wrong I am not here to complaint that i cant run this game on maximum! But even after turning down those settings and trying much more, and although the game tells me I am getting 30-50 FPS, it still feels laggy. If you are reading this there is a good chance you’ve been playing PC games for a while and know what micro-stuttering is. This is basically what I am experiencing here. I am told it is running at say 45 FPS but when turning the camera it stutters, its not smooth.
AND I am getting CONSTANT dips in the 20s. I am questing by my self, it is running say at 50fps, I turn around then boom a quick dip into the 20s, enough for the game to lock up for a split second and go back to “normal”. This is also constant and annoying.
I’ve experienced true smootheness in this game but only indoors where there isn’t much to draw.

Okay, so I guess noone is experiencing this as my last thread was closed and directed to a technical support FAQ? Yes, I know I need to upgrade my video card …
I like the game and I would like to enjoy it but it is impossible as this constant lagging is breaking the immersion. Thanks!

PS. I have AA off and I have set the CCC settings to PERFORMANCE across the board.

Is Arena doing anything about the terrible performance I am getting on a beast system?
Have they even aknowledged that this is something they are working on or that they are even aware of?
I like the game but cannot fully enjoy it as the lagging keeps destroying any sense of immersion I get!!
