Yeah. My fps went from ~45 to ~55 just by turning that one setting down.
This will be the longest 2 days of my life.
Search for "boot camp" under start. Then in that under keyboard you should be able to set what the f keys do.

Damn it all I just woke up and missed the stress test. Oh well. Two more days to see the sunshine one last time.
DUDE. Same.
Was showing my friend that event. But before that, I blew his mind with the fucking carrier pigeons.
Yeah, think I was taking her down with you, I recognized your toon's name, I was "Charred" ("Charizard" was taken) :-(.
And I don't know about these carrier pigeons that you speak of but I'm sure if it's related to GW2 it is indeed mind blowingly awesome.

ArenaNet sure loves to test.
Retro sounds like Batman. How could you mix that up?
its all going to be a mystery to me come saturday morning. I have no idea what the rest of you bums sound like
No headset, wooo!
When you send or receive mail, pigeons actually carry it to and from you.
I can probably recognize Retro, Jira, Ashodin, Wallach, itainteasy, and Billiechu without an overlay.
;~;

I just expect the Batman voice to be a voice he uses sparingly! I'm looking for his *real* voice, understand?
Yup, that's awesome.
WvW was designed by the same guy that made DAOC's RvR.
EDIT: So yes, it's fucking good.

Did you do anything special? Now that -useoldlauncher is disabled it doesn't work for me.
He could also go to his system settings and have function keys enabled as default. Then he has to use the functon key modifier for brightness, volume, etc - which should be fine considering how often you ever really use those keys.
Realistically you should be bypassing the cult of GW2 fanatics and trying to find a way to play the game yourself. If the only available option is to avoid purchasing it, then all one can do is to wait for a multitude of opinions from places and people you trust.
I haven't touched the WvW section of the game outside of a sporadic 5mins here or there, but it seems to be everything that we've always wanted regarding epic PVP with hundreds of people. There are thousands of players out there who have bought this game and will touch nothing but the WvW mode. I would say that if you enjoyed the old RvR in DAoC then you might fit in right at home with GW2's WvW. But don't blame me if you buy it on my word exclusively and find out it's not to your liking. Gather as many opinions as possible if you're still on the fence.
No, it just came on for me after one of the patches yesterday.

You're doomed man. Dooooooooooomed.
Yeah, their patches plus the beta drivers from nVidia is giving me a pretty good boost! Lion's Arch is ~10 FPS faster and WvWvW runs maybe 10-20 FPS faster if I'd have to guess.
Will not pick this up day 1. Never doing that for any MMO ever again. But when the times comes, and it will, I'm thinking about doing a Asura Engineer.
I mean MMO with no monthly fee that looks this great. Might as well pick I. Even if I don't love it I can install it occasionally when the MMO urge comes crawling.

Oddly enough, your non-fanatic opinion sounds a lot like my fanatic one. Perhaps we're not all so unreasonable? Hell, I've suggested some people not buy the game because it didn't sound like something they could get into. But then, it didn't sound like they'd ever like a MMO.
No. All areas were unlocked.
This is great to hear, the framerate yesterday was unbearable at times during the dynamic events yesterday.
But yeah, they only had a short period of time to get to it. I think that's why he's asking, if there was a portal that went to it that wasn't open before.

That hour was so not cool. It was fun while it lasted but I want it even more now!
Where were you running around, man? I saw you during the stress test before this one during a dynamic event in Norn territory.
This is what I'm thinking. I'd be shocked if really low-level toons could reach Ebonhawke, even if they ran for it. I mean, it's possible, but this seems like the most plausible conclusion. Besides, they took a gate from Lion's Arch to Ebonhawke in Ghosts of Ascalon.
I thought the Ebonhawke asura gate was broken or something.

We had about 5 people running around in SPvP just trying new builds and such. Had a good time and checked out a few new builds and such.
Too bad you missed THE LIGHTNING ROUNDS

Managed to take a few screenshots:
In the book, yes. But that doesn't mean it wasn't fixed by now. The book took place a while ago.
Nope. They were able to get there just fine, it just took some underhanded methods. GW2 the game takes place years after Ghosts of Ascalon (which in itself took place before Edge of Destiny too) so the portal should be operating by now, unless something else happened.
Edit: Time to fall asleep and force time to skip forward a few hours.
