Hopefully they keep their promise in optimizing the game so that I can actually play it in my native resolution and everything not turned down all the way.

I could play it in 1920x1080 with everything maxed with barely any FPS issues even in WvW. They have a whole month to optimize, balance, and fix bugs. That's a lot of fucking time in the game development world.

I hope so. They said that if you could play GW on max (which I can) then you could at least play GW2 on medium settings, but that idea seems to be fading. However, I only have a 9400 GT so I'm a fool for ever hoping that I could run this game on anything more than the lowest settings ;_;.

my current vote for servers is isle of janthir
played with some cool guys last beta weekend and that's what they are likely to be running on.

I'll play on any server. Just avoid the fucking gw2guru and /r/gw2 servers

I really want to see a final list of servers and what communities are playing one each. Just gotta avoid 4chan and RP servers. Reddit is usually a disorganized zerg guild thats not usually annoying. Crystal dessert was alright and it looks to be one of the top WvW servers with team legacy (they did 100 golem march) but I'm fire as long as we steer clear of 4chan and RP servers.

Hopefully more people will use this before launch. Would be very useful if every major guild/community put their guild on here.

so i guess isle of janthir will be our server unless anyone else wants something else.

as i've said before they're all in the same datacenter so its pretty much irrelevant which one we choose as far as ping goes

You gotta optimize that shit by picking the server that's in the corner closest to your house. Otherwise you have no one to blame for lag but yourself.

This is a public notepad and some ass monkeys on 4chan keep spamming it

This is owned by someone, unsure of how up to date it is.

Well fuck, RIP laptop that could run this game.

[LV15GAMER]

we should probably just wait and see where the big communities settle down and pick a server a day before it goes live.

If you're using spreadsheets to play a game that isn't EVE, something has gone horribly wrong.

I mean stuff has still gone wrong if you're playing EVE, but still.

You don't need to, the video maker is just extremely retarded. The trading post tells you like, the top 100 items demanded from highest to lowest. So you can make lots of money selling those.

Stress test from 2-6cst tomorrow. Also midnight pre-launch confirmed (2am cst on August 25th).

He was actually buying lots of something like copper at the market price then putting out multiple small buy orders at like double the market price. This created an artificial bubble that many people tried  to take advantage of because the trading posts showed a huge gap between the sell price and the buy price. He then proceeded to sell his copper seemingly cheap but still way above the normal market price. By the time the market started to correct itself he pulled out all his remaining buy orders and let the market crash back down to normal price.
