Am I the only one really disappointed with the voice acting?

Completely agree. Some in game reactions are very cool, but especially the cutscenes are meh. Conversation cutscenes are astonishingly very bad in every way, especially for a game like GW2. Better remove them already.

Generally I agree that voices also need more variety.

Random disconnects

I’m using a wireless network, and I occasionally get DCs. I think this is because of the lag spikes. It happens like this:

Everything seems normal, I’m in game. Then I notice the NPCs are not moving. The skill button I use keep flashing and cannot execute. Then I know I have to close and relog.

When I was playing lotro, lag spikes were delays, the game could resume after like say a 5-10-20 second lag. IMHO it is just GW2 non-resumably disconnects on lag spikes.

I tried everything. I bought a better and more expensive wireless adapter. I am even using another modem for WLan, unfortunately the disconnects still exist.

Nvidia drivers vs OEM Brand drivers?

Hi,

Do you advise using latest Nvidia drivers instead of manufacturer supplied drivers (in my case Sony Vaio – Geforce 540m latest driver is in 03.2012)?

game minimizes sporadically every 30 - 60 seconds

I advise check the programs running in the background. Look for a program that is taking the focus from GW2. I had a similar issue for some time (not latest patch), not only in the game, but also my browsers were affected. I disabled several programs from windows startup. I guess it is better now.

My first advise would be Samsung KIES and related services.

Yes, it works sometimes, but mostly we need to type a player’s name manually to invite. Very embrassing bug for a such an advanced game. And these seems no progress through all new updates.

It’s best if the pets automatically changed name to something such as “Tamed Brown Bear”.
