  1. I agree. This tiny little bar is really hard to see in a pinch and I'm using a 27" monitor. They really need to rethink its design. Just a completely flat, plain bar like Necros have would be far superior to what we have now.
  2. It looks like roughly 20% more single core performance than the 7700K/8700K-type chips that many people are still hanging onto, unless you were one of the folks who bought a 10900K then it really isn't a worthy upgrade. Even so, world event and WvW zergs can drop below 20 FPS even on monster computers, and 20% more than 20 FPS is still only 24 FPS or so. Granted this is an oversimplification of how PC's actually process things, but it still makes the point: it's not going to be a huge difference just because of how Guild Wars 2 is. No matter how good your hardware is, world event and WvW zergs are still going to tank your framerate well below your typical average.
  3. The octave delay and missed notes can affect people who play by keyboard and not script as well. I'm like 98% sure octave swap delay was introduced somewhere down the road and wasn't in the game when instruments started being a thing. Something made them worse than originally designed.
  4. More female variants of armors for Asura Females would be really appreciated, too. Right now, Asura Females generally get male variants of armor.
  5. Haha, I main Ele and honestly, in a heated ranked game, it feels like you're playing a piano. Fingers moving so fast, next thing you know, my UI is gone ??Ah, that I get. I main Weaver also.
  6. As much as I begrudge many of the design choices Anet makes (cough paid build templates cough), gameplay-wise I believe GW2's present era is the best. I love the playstyle of Weaver, the current story surrounding the Charr is pretty interesting in my opinion, and I love my mounts. I absolutely loved Vanilla GW2 as well, but in hindsight that was primarily because it was new, and no one knew what was good or bad. Dungeons were absolutely brutal before people optimized the fun out of them, many of the hidden secrets/gems in the maps had yet to be found, and the world was dangerous (also because we hadn't yet optimized our classes). Power creep or no, it was inevitable that the world became a pushover. Such is the way with MMOs. See: Classic WoW.
  7. Perhaps, but if Anet where smart they could cash in by making it a Gem Store item. This is exactly why we don't want ArenaNet to make another in-house replacement for an addon that already works well enough.
  8. Hello. I've had a ticket open for five days now with no response. I'm alright with waiting, but I'm just wondering how long I can expect to wait.Thanks.
  9. I'm 100% for a guaranteed-over-time sort of thing for this. I've played GW2 since beta and I've only gotten one Ascended drop from Tequatl. It's pretty stupid how low that drop rate is.
  10. I've noticed it permeating most of the game as long as there's a large enough group of people, not just LWS4 now. For example, I was map-completing Queensdale the other night and the moment Shadow Behemoth popped, I was getting massive skill-lag despite being nowhere near the boss. I really hope this gets better, because it's really, really annoying and has lead to several deaths. Edit: I'm on NA.
  11. Lag on NA is really bad during some world events. I've been spending a lot of time in LWS4 maps and Bjora Marches these last few days, and after getting giant lag spikes I'll ask /map if they are getting them too, and the answers have been a resounding yes, so I know it isn't just me. Just this morning doing Drakkar I got a lag spike so large I thought I DC'd, and then after a few seconds things went back to normal. Once the lag ended, I saw a ton of people in squad chat complaining about that giant lag spike. Something is up with the servers. They weren't like this in the past. (And just to note, I am talking about Internet latency spikes, not FPS lag.)
  12. I'd love to play under MacOS on my laptop because of how hot the thing gets under Windows, but we probably won't ever have a real choice unless you're okay with 30 FPS on subsampled graphics.
