Well a GTX260 can run the game, but not well on a 1920x1200 reso at medium setting. Between my i5 and the GTX 260, I believe the GTX260 is holding the performance back. I might wait till after the game release before deciding to get a new GC or not though.

Your laptop should be able to run it, it's better than my desktop that runs on i5 750 and GTX 260

Well I am not sure if can run on high or not, but mid should be fine, GW2 looks quite good already at mid setting smile.gif

GTX 670 is totally out of my budget, will aim for GTX560 Direct CU II

Why not get 570 instead?much faster than 560

I didn't see the price for 570, after 560 it's already 670 haha. It'll depends on how much more I'll have to pay for it though.

Wah 570 still over 1k? sure or not, if over 1k the price still the same as i first bought it lol
*
I took a lot at some price list just now and yup it's over 1k, but then I am not sure how current the price is though. So GTX 560 is the only one I can afford.

Might not choose Thief since I still find it hard to use sad.gif

Actually I didn't find it that hard though, and it was pretty fun too. Will roll an alt thief once I finish my human warrior personal story and get to level 80 haha

I mean as in like when to use this skill and when to combo etc, especially during PVP always mati tongue.gif

Btw, I always see that "combo finisher" for each skill but I can never find that skill hmm.gif
*
Oh I was trying it out on PVE,yes figuring out which skill to use and in which sequence do take some practice. There are times I feel I wasn't using the skills right but since it's low level pve area I can still survive.

Ah combo finisher, it's a combination of your skills and other players, can check out the video below for some of the combos

Yeah now it's much easier to get into WvWvW, but geting out of it you still need to go LA first though.

lol.. normally i just logout.. log back in, there i am in the PVE area i was previously in...

That works too, that's what I did when I first went to WvWvW, cause I couldn't find a way out. I was getting kind of frustrated so I just logout and login again to see what happen.

I find WvWvW is sort of like PVE too, except you fight with real people, there are AI foes there as well.

Thanks bro. Will check it out later

Btw how's Crystal Dessert? Ok tak? Might consider that place hmm.gif
*
CD is full man, it's one of the 3 servers that is full during beta and stress test. But playing pve there was fine though, no lag and smooth. For WvWvW, you''ll need to queue for Crystal Desert map, but other maps no queue.

how powerful is the AI foe lol, iirc back in my RYL days, in WvW maps, the AI like friggin tough, only well geared max lvls can take em down, and there was no lvl limit for players ahahahahhaha

it was preddy funny when lower lvl spells or ranged shots snipe a high lvl down in a major battle
*
Everything is scale to level 80 in WvWvW, so they are tough but not impossible to take down. I only play a bit of WvWvW so didn't actually experience it in full, was just following the group around haha.

In WvW, you also gain PvE rewards (exp, coin, karma)... So it's not hurt at all to participate, except your opponents are mostly zerglings.

Yeah zergling is true, I was kill but no less than 5 players ganging up on me, I am not sure where my group went at the time.

There was a video back in BWE1... A large group of player follow a warrior (warrior or guardian? got a "dash forward" skill or something...).
They come in front of a valley (the gap quite wide), the warrior use his skill and dash/jump across the valley to the other side.
Guess what the others did- THEY ALL FOLLOW and all hit the bottom of the valley, all dead TROLOLOLOL...

Can't find the video already but if anyone found it please post it on LOL!  tongue.gif

I found here that beta driver 304.79 would work better. Downloading it first just incase there's any problem, then I can just install the beta driver.

No patch note, but you can access the setting if you place this command line -useoldlauncher in the shortcut.
