Guild Wars 2

I totally agree! it’s annoying having to open my inventory and click on my minipet to activate it over and over

OK just tried this out and yes, I like it! Much better than the in game FXAA. No more aliasing!

Philo.1542, I think you’re going a little overboard with the whole refund thing, but I do agree, Anet needs to fix this, or at least acknowledge it. This is not an issue with just NVIDIA cards as my ATI card also isn’t performing how it does in more powerful games.

Can someone take some screenshots of Guild Wars 2 with this tool enabled and again disabled so I can see the difference?

I also get lower framerates in other areas, not just Lions Arch. Areas with lots of grass and vegetation. I can’t be CPU bottlenecked, my CPU is a powerful one. Reading 21 pages would take too much time, but it’s clear I am not the only one with good hardware and poor fps.

Here are my specs:

Intel Core i7 2600k @ 4.2 GHz
8GB DDR3 RAM
MSI Radeon HD 6950 2GB Twin Frozr III Power Edition
Windows 7 x64
Catalyst 12.8 with the latest application profile.

I can run powerful games like Max Payne 3, Skyrim and The Witcher 2 on maximum detail (or close to) while still achieving 40+ fps. Why is it on Guild Wars 2, I go into Lions Arch and in some areas, I am in the low 20’s?

I have the graphics setting on maximum detail (with exception of the renderer which is on native) You would think a PC like mine would be able to run this game at high fps with high/ultra graphics enabled. While the game looks nice, it’s visually no where near the standard of the games I mentioned above.

I have tried the 4GB patch and it didn’t make a difference. I can confirm that my graphics card is running in a x8 PCI-Express slot (should be 16x but I think I plugged my sound card into the wrong PCI-Express slot so it’s forcing the card to go at 8x but even so, the performance impact of 8x vs 16x is about 1%). I can also confirm that the game is using all cores of my processor.
