@topic: that AO glitch was always there if you run a driver version which got AO at the CP settings while having it enabled while running native-redersampling in-game

nvidia AO constitutes a graphics driver hack, so don’t expect support here.

i was like “wtf” then i googled and they indeed use some sort of graphic hack to apply/force AO in games which creates weird bugs and glitches most of the time

i wonder why it is turned on by default in the first place and why it is even there if it’s applied to games by a “hacking technique”…i mean most of all common games nowadays are online-multiplayer…

i’m even more confused now _

i never really thought much about that glitch since Squall mentioned the word “hack” but i’m pretty sure that could be abused for unfair scouting in WvWvW

sounds like you turned AO on globally :p

thats not microstuttering, its resource loading, when you do the camera spin around it fetches data for alot of resources that aren’t in memory yet.

Different OS same idea. Ram is meant to be used, unused ram translate to wasted ram because ram is always consuming power. Unused ram should be used as file cache to boost performance.

Don’t talk about stuff that you (and the site you refer to) don’t really have a clear understanding of.

Unused ram is wasted ram refers to SUPERFETCHING.

Windows 8 is insanely popular and actually a very good operating system.

no it isn’t, on both counts.

Both corporate and consumer level people are moving to Win8 in a very fast rate which pales Win7 conversion rates. These are also facts you can find everywhere on the webz.

It would be helpful to know (from OP), if he/she was referring to the public or the internal IP, but I’m pretty sure it was the public IP.

And in this case we might have a severe security issue.

Though I have to admit that I don’t know the exact criteria for when a prompt is needed. A minor change (still in the same region) of the IP might just not trigger it.

Which would be smart and not a severe security risk but just less annoyance.

While we are at it. “IT Security” is the “Art of balancing risk and usability”.

What part of

Several times now, i have had my modem desync and reconnect, supplying me with a fresh IP Address."

Would imply that I was talking of anything BUT the external IP. The internal one certainly would not change because of a desync. A power cycle on the other hand, if was using DHCP…..(which I’m not)

But, no, heh, I tried logging in through a vpn just to be sure it wasn’t doing anything like taking isp into consideration and the login still succeeded.

Which CPU for more FPS?

Squall Leonhart.2075

you can’t compare them at all, ones a quad, ones a dual

the dual performs better in dual core optimised situations, the quad performs better where the app can use all 4.

if you found a similar intel chip with 4 cores, it’d dominate the phenom in all quarters.

Shame I can’t get mobile auth due to my phone type, but some of the players hacked are using mobile authenticator anyway. Once they change your email they can login and disable it I believe?

So the root of the problem is how are they changing the email to begin with.

Actually they can’t disable the link to the mobile authenticator unless they have access to the phone itself.

Yes they can, via account recovery.
which requires pretty much the same info as opening a support ticket.

thing is, apart from having access to emails or having stolen the physical game key from your house, theres no way for anyone to be seeing your serial key without having access to the Anet database :|

That is, of course, if its not actually a disgruntled Anet employee taking accounts for himself and his friends.

Several times now, i have had my modem desync and reconnect, supplying me with a fresh IP Address.

On none of these occasions have i had the authentication prompt either via email or 2x 6 digit mobile authentication

This has been an issue only introduced in the last 3 weeks.

Trusted connection (assumedly) only relates to the current IP address, which prior to the last 3 weeks, always prompted me for ReAuth when it happened to change (Thru connection issues). Since then, i am able to log into my account with no authentication prompting at all.

This is obviously NOT a good indication of ongoing account security improvements.
