Guild Wars 2

Nothing quite that bad here but I am noticing that the game is not using hardly any of my available resources... CPU/GPU usage are in the 30-40% regions. The gw2.exe forces itself to be 'Low' priority on my processes list, as well... quite puzzling for a beta test, really.

Do you even understand beta? You should have seen the beta we subbed this week :eek:
 
Had a couple of hours, it's busy like Time Square at Christmas. However, I'm struggling to get decent frame rates even with my rig. Anyone had better luck? CPU load around 30% on 4 cores, GPU load about the same on both, so it's doing some crossfire, but not really well.

Arenanet have said there isn't proper SLI / Crossfire support yet and to turn it off. My game ran smoother after turning SLI off, but battles were still unplayable.

It goes low when the screen isn't in focus, I believe.

I ran EVGA Precision up for a bit and its using 30% of my GPU. I checked and V-Sync isn't enabled in game or in the control panel :S

Of course I understand Beta. All I'm saying is that it's strange that it sets its priority to Low on the processes list and then consumes very little processing potential... doesn't seem like a great way to benchmark performance.
 
Meh I give up pretty much.

The server I selected in the previous test is still stuck and is the FULLEST server. It's unplayable. Nothing happens for a minute then it all playbacks in a huge chunk.
 
After *4 1/2* Hours, I've still yet to get past the character Selection screen..

Not a good start, and at the moment, not showing any signs of getting better, just wasted an entire evening trying to login (almost needing to buy a new keyboard)
 
The login is not broken, the logout is broken.

Log in to your guild wars 2 account here

https://forum.guildwars2.com/

Go to the security settings.

Clear up your active connections (log out / game crash didnt log you out, hence you were still seen as logged in and couldnt relog).

Now load the game, log in and enjoy.

Bed time, loved every minute of it. PvP is pretty mental, hopefully they will iron out the problems and it will be easier to get logged on.

+1 to that, this is such a refreshing game. Just killed some colossal effigy from the flame legion, somthing that would have been a raid boss in WoW, and it just came out of us kicking them back abit, just amazing.

edit: I was playing on Gandara sever if that helps, got kicked twice but was pretty much stable. Hope everyone can get some awsome gameplay tomorow
