Hooray. Good thing I'll be at work during that time =)

Maybe when I get home I can catch the tail end of it.

This is silly. I seem to always work whenever a stress test is going on. Usually exact start and finish times too with an hour before or after just to be sure I miss it.

When the game goes live I'll have to make sure to get on as soon as I can to set up the guild. With my luck I'll work the 25th.

I'm starting to think all these stress tests are really just to keep players that were in the latest beta from going into GW2 withdrawal.

I love this game, seriously. I only have one problem with it, and that is the WvWvW lag.

I only played for a short time today; I'm ready for the real deal. Very excited to level a character that I can actually get attached to.

Looks like I need a new PC to play it at decent framerates in intense WvW sieges, but it's at least playable otherwise.

Arrrhg, played another hour today, but then the test stopped.

Even though I've only encountered one dynamic event it's pretty clear that they're going to be great =p

Does anyone else tend to have a absolute ton of lag in WvWvW? I realize that there are up to 2000 people there, but when I can play the game normally on the best settings, I still even lag on the lowest ones and lowest resolution in WvWvW.

When you say lag do you mean in terms of FPS or internet connection?

FPS, freezing, typical issues when you dont have a good enough graphics card or your at 100% CPU.
From what I checked, my graphics card should run the game perfectly, and im normally at 80% CPU used when i play GW2.

i only lagged with more than 60 people on the screen ... on the highest settings.
Maybe you just ran out of vRAM.
What card do you use?
