Originally this was the Player List but I'm remaking that so that it's like the VLLD Roll Call list - just one post.
Random GW talk. Go!

yes, but when they sign on as a different character, that chars name will be displayed instead of the one you added, you will just have to ask who it is that signed on to distinguish who it is

you guys started on that character when i was like level 5. thanks to my game constantly freezing up. im only level 8. >.<. im conversing back and forth with the tech support, but they really need to get their act together. enough of this plug and play bullshit, they need to fix this common problem already. |
Yeah, I am also having a lot of problems with GW. I can play it fine on my brother's PoS Desktop, but my laptop with 512 ram, pentium 4, etc can't handle it for SOME reason. It will start out running just fine, then it gets slower and slower and once it is getting about .5 fps, I get a "Not enough memory" error and the game quits on me. Tech support says it's my video card...wtf?

The processor is good enough. It is the video card that is causing the slow down. As has been said before this game is very video intensive. I noticed that it slows my computer down and mine has what was one of the best graphics cards around 14 months ago. We also have another computer that has a Ti4200 GeForce3 in it and after about a half hour of playing time the screen will simply go black when the video card finally can't keep up anymore. I need to try to update the drivers on that one to see if I can improve the situation because they are at least a year old.
If you really want to enjoy the game you need to have a decent video card installed.

a Geforce 5200 fx is a decent card, is it not?

i would recommend any card that has 128mb of Vram or more. the game will run on my system that has a 64mb card, but it is the fastest card that was made for that "period" of cards, which wasnt even 6 months ago.
RAM, 512 is enough, a Gig is nice though if u went up to 1024, a lot of the "lag" you expierence(well, in your case you really havent experienced it) which about 40% of it is files being paged, will just go away.
P4, good enough to run it. processor really doesnt make a huge difference in this game, althought anything below 1.5 will show a bit of a strain(and you'll also notice you wont hardly be able to do anything if you minimize GW)
other things to look out for:
hard drive speed. if your computer is over a yr old, its also likely your HD just aint spinnin quick enough. if you can find a computer savvy friend to help you how fast it spins, make sure its 7200 rpm or 10400 rpm, the 5400s just dont cut it for todays games anymore(and sadly, i still see gamers still using them)
Your internet connection. If you have broadband, your set. If you have dial-up, only homes in newer areas will be able to run it decently, as phone lines any older than 2 years(and even some that are younger than that, depends where you live) wont even connect at the full bandwidth that a 56k can achieve(53.2kbps)
and one that most casual users can figure out: dont try to run the game at higher settings than your PC can handle. i.e: dont set the resolution any higher than your desktops res is set at(unless your atoned to the classic w98 800x600 setup and leave it like that all the time) things like environmental effects and antialiasing look pretty, but come at a huge videoprocessing cost.
i think if i wast so high i wouldnt have wrote as much, but hey, good luck getting your GW to run

What exactly is antialiasing? I played around with it for a few seconds and didn't noticed any huge difference.

traditionally game graphics used pixels. they still do. but now they have made it to where the video card will smooth out the rough edges on pixels so that they dont have a jagged appearannce
