So I try to run guild wars on my pc...
I find that this is a short, yet amusing story:
So I get home from work yesterday to find that my mother has taken my Laptop to work with her, cause she does that sort of thing. So, I go to my PC and say: It's only a 4 year old computer, surely it can run guild wars, right? Wrong. Warning: The folloing screen shot is horrific, only view if you dare. It is a screen shot of the Login menu... you have been warned. http://img504.imageshack.us/img504/9...ildwars3cs.png Well, that's it. That's my story. |

I had my cable go out once and had to use dial up on my husbands computer. It looked like color tv fuzz and it was SO slow that even chatting was painful. I felt lucky that I could even see the chat.

I'll be honest with you, I play on dial-up since I've gotten the game and have beaten it, ascended many characters and do many activities on a daily basis and I barely get any lagg.
I'm not sure if I have some "special" kind of dial-up but I have no problems with using it. AOL FTW! |

"What color was the smoke?" Heh... I had no idea that you could make it look so very bad! My older computer (the one I'm on now) makes Guild Wars all... Laggy and... silver shiny crappy... But nothing as bad as that man. Not even close. I think I'll have to give your character a pat on the back or something when I see you again... |

Omfg. THE INHUMANITY! And GW runs surprisingly well with older video cards (Geforce 4s and 3s), as opposed to the newer generation of games that are quite demanding. GW has its requirements too, though. What is that, some built-in-comes-with-your-comp intel crap? I'm curious as to what horrific specs it has to cause that.

It wasn't graphics card, it was Gwen drowning the entire civilisation in a sea of virgin blood.
