question for mmorpg staff

bishbosh

when you guys play-tested gw2 before the NDA was lifted was it as laggy and "poorly optimised" as it is now? because your articles never mentioned the lag, the poor framerates and the clunkyness, infact your articles were extremely postive

excelllent question! They would have to have experienced the same sort of server environment as a sold out prepurchase BWE. I really doubt there is much difference between a few thousand and fifty thousand or maybe more.  I suppose you don't want my opinion though, as you directed it to staff.

poor framerates and poor optimisation is not really affected by number of players. from footage people have posted in WvWvW there seems to have been a fairly crowded so yeh.

all im doing is asking a question. you should settle down and hopefully a staff member can explain.

Edit: Sorry staff question and I should have left it at that.

Haven't played the game, but how laggy are we speaking. Like Vanguard laggy?

Not sure if I'm remembering right but I think from a video they said they were running it on medium-low so that it performs well.

Do you have a vid or something you are refering to? like as far as the lag goes? 

 

thanks!
