WvWvW lag

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: Caedmon.6798

Caedmon.6798

  1. It’s not WvWvW, it’s just WvW
  2. I don’t ever hear of anyone having lag who has an okay gaming computer. Sounds like a computer issue and not a game issue.

Do you play on the lowest pop server or something ? because everyone has SKILL DELAY LAG when 2 Huge zerg meet,or there is a huge fight in sm going on,or when 3 zergs c l a s h ( why is this word forbidden ? ),it makes the game unplayable.No matter what your system is,it is Connection related,and its on anet side.

Now that "everyone" has access to portals

I think you guys missed the point, in fact, I think you guys didnt even bother to read. This isnt about “mesmers are now useless since everyone can get a portal”, this about “mesmer were never allowed to have speed boosts because they would bring a unique mechanic to the game that would allow them to transport anyone, having a speed boost would only increase the strenght of this”

Now everyone who really wants to can bring said portal and a speed boost to back it up. I think it is time we move from that archaic way of thinking and give mesmers the uncalled for lack of movement speed for exploring without having tyo spend 15 gold in runes and having to occupy a weapons slot that most likely than not you will not like.

You already have dozens of ways to escape every single kitten fight whenever you want,lets ask for Warriors to be granted teleporting and portals and stealth aswell…because ehhh we need it !!!

Any sign of a real FoV fix from Arenanet yet?

Are you kidding me ? What you have been using is a bannable offense,you by using a Fov hack gain advantage over other players who are not being able to zoom out and see as far as you can,by using that hack you can also use ac’s to shoot at places no other person can without that tool.

Im glad the latest patch broke your tool,i hope it stays that way.
Also,smart for posting this…

This post should be deleted for being not only rude but downright silly. OP, I can assure you that the number of people who actually believe this inane rambling are slim at best.

Unfortunately, though, I doubt we’ll be seeing a fix to your FoV problem any time soon. That level of fix will take Arenanet probably a year+, and they certainly won’t be making any changes to accommodate a 3rd party application, since it would set a precedent that would have others asking “Oh, hey, btw- I have a quality of life addon that I would love to use. Please mod the game for me so it will work! You did it for -blah-”

Some people get motion sick very easily. My boss, for example, will not play games for that reason. Just watching me play GW2 for a moment would make him ill. Just because others don’t understand it, doesn’t mean it will go away. I don’t understand how someone can get car sick- doesn’t make the ill feeling not exist.

For stating the obvious ? Anet stated that using any tool that gives an advantage over other players is a bannable offense.Since you never played wvw by the looks of it and have absolutely no clue that this is giving people a Huge advantage over other people with the normal fov and basically screwing up wvw for what it is.There are Loads of people using this type of stuff,and it is considerd to be a Hack.

By all means,send anet an mail with the link to the program you used ( Wich is only available on Hacking/exploits sites with the warning that you might end up getting banned ) ,and see if anet gives you the “ok” to keep on using this type of stuff.

Whats the point of the first line .. “As a programmer and a Lifelong Gamer & working at the moment as part of community team on another MMO” .. Does this mean that Anet has to listen to you now ? They do fix bugs,they just dont reply on them,how annoying it may seem,i can actually for a fact show you they Do listen to bug reports.

Fixed 23 days later ago.
etc etc

They just dont have the time to give a reply on every bug report…You as a programmer and a lifelong gamer Cough must surely understand this right ?

The only thing i would like to see is a confirmation of the bug and a reply that it’s being send to the development team so no double/triple posts of the same bug are being made.

Destroyers have an immunity to burning and I hate it as an engineer.

I can imagine Guardian and Elementalists hate it too. World of Warcraft had resists when it first release, and they got rid of it because it’s established as bad and just annoying.

Yes lore blahrghghahh. Gameplay is more important.

Imagine as a mesmer, something was immune to confusion. You’d be upset too.

I actually wish they added more mechanics where you need to use your brain instead of spamm your skills around.

The patch reset my graphic settings to highest possible. I had to lower it all back down for my four year old 295GTX to play normally.

Hi!

This is not the issue, my fps is the same whether I run the game at the lowest settings or the highest.

Patch changed something in the code and how CPU gets utilized. The 5% utilization only (in any core) is the issue.

Please learn to read already youre making a reply that has absolutely nothing to do with what i said and who i replied on in the first place.Again,"every Skilled player in the proper gear is “OP”.Maxing out one stat lowers your other stats significantly.Doing a dung in full berserk vs a mix of certain stats makes your run go what,2 minutes faster with the probability of going down in two hits ? Thats the downside of going full bersk..Like i said in the previous post wich you didnt seem to understand,Full bersk is less sustain= less toughness = less vitality = less survivability overall and the chance of getting youself downed much faster then someone build for sustain..thats all m saying here.

Culling on steroids now

Posted by: Caedmon.6798

Caedmon.6798

Please ANET fix this ridiculous culling in the new pavillion area. I’m sorry but I can’t do the Pavilion events until this culling is fixed, in order to see the enemy I am forced to turn enemy name-tags on and then all I see are names with no bodies so I continually die not seeing the enemy.

I think it’s also related to your own systems capabilities.I barely have any culling at all there…none to be exact.

Also,posting your ingame video settings might help…instead of screaming culling culling.

My quad-core 32Gb ram SLI system is just fine running triple digit FPS in every other game I play with all GPU settings on highest with zero noticeable lag even with browser open and 8+ tabs open and torrents running along with Core Temp and other assorted apps running on my other monitor, but, in GW2 I get double digit FPS and single digit FPS at World Bosses(between 3 and 8) with all GPU settings at their lowest. It is most definitely not on my end, sorry.

Im just saying..if you make a post like that you start with system specs,it’s simple.Also its well known the gw2 client runs pretty bad even on high end systems,but tbh i really do not encounter the culling you are describing here and def not getting as low fps as you are describing here.Also,getting between 3 and 8 fps is a clear sign something Is wrong on your end,with such system specs you should be getting much better fps all around.

Name one, and watch the rest of the dungeon regs laugh at you…

Why would i name one now knowing that i will be laughed at by people like yourself unable to listen to other people because you all know best ? Also,it’s common sense,maxing out one stat provides you with lower overall stats..i think you can work that out yourself,or do you need some help with that ?

GW2 freeze on startup

in Account & Technical Support

Posted by: Caedmon.6798

Caedmon.6798

I am having the same problem, every time I go to load the game, I can log in, but right before the character selection screen, the game freezes. Sometimes, it goes to a partially black screen, other times it will remain a frozen desktop screen with my widgets removed.
The only way to escape this endless freeze is to CTRL+ALT+DEL my way out of it. The task manager will say GW2 is not responding. I am unsure if this is what the forum posts have been referring to as “Black Screen”, but the posted solution to this problem does not work for me.
I have a Radeon HD 6670 graphics card, and am running Windows Vista. Everything is up to date. GW2 has worked fine for me for the past 11 months, and even up to this morning. I did not even turn off my computer—it merely went into sleep mode.
There is another question I had I was hoping someone could answer: On the forums there is also a solution to a similar problem by deleting the .dat file at the GW2 location. I have done this, but all it seems to do is delete all the patches, etc. that I had accumulated thus far. It has been nearly a full year since the game’s release. It will take all night and some of tomorrow before the game is re-patched and hopefully playable. My question: Is this supposed to happen? Did everyone who did this procedure have to wait for the game client to reload everything from scratch? Or did I just delete the wrong file, unknowing of the true problem?
Looking for help to the freezing/black screen problem, possible solutions.

The .DAT file holds the patches,wich is located in the games main folder.The Local.Dat file is located in your user settings folder wich holds the Video options etc.I guess youve been mistaken the two perhaps ? Because the first solution would always to be deleting the Local.dat before even trying to remove the .Dat wich is not recommanded anyway..Simply do a -Repair on that file.

110 fps in wvw

Posted by: Caedmon.6798

Caedmon.6798

For the error part ,that’s just windows noticing that a program is demanding high utilization of resources, it wants to turn aero off, just to provide more resources to the demanding program. As the program is turned off, it automatically returns to aero.

But if you really get annoyed by this message.You can either make sure that whenever you launch guild wars 2 it switches off Aero on boot so you wont get the popup atleast.

Doing so by rightclicking your GW2 shortcut select Properties > Compatibility > And put a check behind Disable Visual themes and Disable desktop composition.

If you want to have Aero always to be enabled and windows to stop asking you to turn it off,since your system is well capable of having Aero enabled while playing demanding games.You can do so with the following registry edit.
____

In regedit go to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\DWM

Set a new DWORD “UseMachineCheck” with a value of 0. ( Without the quotes )

This will keep Windows from checking if your computer “performs slowly” and thus attempting to disable Aero.

Warrior heals doesn’t need to be on par with the other classes,we were in need of sustain heavily,and still do.The extra healing buff was and is necessary and should not be toned down whatsoever.Just for the fact that you want to UP necs ( the most OP class ingame atm,even survivability wise ) healing and guards healing is what’s making this post absolutely ridiculous to say the least,were finally being able to withstand some of the constant condi spamming,the healing buff doesn’t make us “immortal” we’ve just been granted some sustain wich we were in heavy need of.

I just..how do you even buy the Wrong amulet ? YOur looking at the screen,you make a decision,you know they cost alot…and you still manage to click on the wrong item..i just dont get it…

People occasionally make mistakes, even about expensive things.

Hence,you should be carefull when clicking,and looking at your screen..instead of randomly clicking without bothering to look hoping you pick the right item..You cannot expect anet to give everyone another amulet of their choise because they are to blind to pick the wrong one ( sry if it came out harsh,i dont mean it like that..)
For instance,many people would like another amulet instead of the one they picked now,so expect 500 ppl sending tickets all claming they picked the wrong item,while they didn;t but they just want other stats.Do you see what a waste of time this will be for anet ?

Tbh,i would like to have new stats on my amulet aswell,shall i create a thread claiming the same thing the OP did … ?

So if you have an oc’d system,get lockups because of heat,or worse performance,or just worried about your high temps..turn it down a notch and increase those fanspeeds,opening your sidecase can also help alot to get that heat out.
