So can someone explain this whole map system thing to me. I'm still in the area I first started out, so obviously not a lot of the other members are here. So am I supposed to be beating quests or something to move on or how does this work.


Start by doing the 'heart' quests shown on the map. Specifics of the quest will show in the top right corner with a completion progress bar. You'll also get events while doing the heart quests.

Can anyone invite me, user = antiparadox.1543 whenever I try to click the play button now it gives me the error "Either there is no current Guild Wars 2 event or this account is not authorized to participate in one" and its already 28th of august so it should work regardless if I have a pre-order or pre-purchase, no??

This is the same bullshit as when Diablo came out, you buy the game but you can;t log in:(

Meh
Got an i5 running at 4Ghz stable... 8gb ram and a GTX 670
Running latest drivers and surprise surprise get about 30-40 fps lol Smile

Card should be eating those settings going by how some people are running with slower gfx cards without any issues... Seems to be an optimisation thing their end, some people with lower specs get higher fps.

On a side note the game is truly beautiful. You can tell that theyve really spent their time creating the world instead of sticking it through random terrain generator Smile

The human city (in the very centre) is nothing short of spectacular... Kinda blew me away. I loved Wow's visual style, more importantly it was how the artists had created the world with the engine they had... In my opinion this impressed me more. Can't wait to get the fps issues sorted so I can get more into the game.

On a sidenote, i'm getting wtfpwned a lot with my thief, need to L2p lol
Ranger was far easier at earlier levels.

Ouch

Mine isnt that bad... Found that even turning down the settings to medium made no difference to my fps. remains the same. bloody weird.

Also using a monitor program the gpu is only ever at about 55% gpu usage max... CPU never seems to really go above 30-40% on all cores... Its like the game just isn't trying to use the full power of the machine Sad

I played the beta with the client installed on SSD disk and had zero fps drops with lots of people on screen. Maybe there is a solution.
Especially that in any other MMO that I played (on HDD) I had drops in fps with more than 20 people at the same time on screen.

For pvp get a shortbow, learn that first then i strongly suggest double dagger.
When you are fighting vs a big group, use your poison area (4 with the shortbow) quickly followed by 2 (flame arrow, can't remember the name) and if you got the damage venom apply it after firing the arrow. It's area weakness + damage poison + burning + a shitton of damage from the blast. Pull someone with scorpion wire, switch to dagger, kill him and gtfo Very Happy

There's alot of good stuff going on in this game. Just I wonder, a chest dropped and when I try opening it the game sends me to the cashshop. Do I really need to buy a key in the cashshop to open the chest?

No, you get keys as you play the game as well. Though, it can take some time.

There are probably other ways to get keys - but I don't know them.

Any help? Sad
Thanks.


The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.

That's a common error related to the login server being busy. Of course, it's not necessarily the case here - but unless you have general connection issues, I'd say the login server is simply busy.

47FPS playing solo, I assume? What's your fps during PvE event with more people and NPCs on the screen?
