Did anyone have performance issues in this last beta? Seemed like my PC was running slow as molasses. I'm hoping there are still tweaks to be made. one thing I can't stand in MMOs is slow video response, and my budget for upgrading to an i5 hasn't quite been topped off yet.

I may pick this game up. Which they would open up a beta for the general public so I can get a taste of it before purchasing.

Yeah, I get a few framedrops on some scene.. I checked gpu usage, it was @ 50%-60%. Havent checked the cores though. Its waaay better than beta weekend 1 however. I was getting 15-20 fps average during the 1st beta weekend . Id expect more optimization on their game binary side and on the gpu driver side.

We should all decide on a server to play on so that we may assist each other with grp quests and such

I will likely be on Jade Quarry. Though Maguuma for the goon guild is awfully tempting.

I've been out of the GW2 loop for too long. I had no idea we would even know what servers are called. I'll join whatever you guys decide to join.

So, it's saying I will need to purchase a world transfer if I select a server now. Which shall I choose? *Jade Quarry seems to be mentioned alot. I'm going for that.

2nd edit. Jade Quarry is Full. I chose the Gates of Madness... i think.
