Gibson.4036 Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 I can run old zones at highest settings, but the newest zones are more taxing and I need to turn settings down. And then, of course, when there are a lot of players in a small area for WvW or Metas, settings need to get reduced. The highest/autodetect/performance settings are really crude. There are excellent guides on line for tweaking your settings so that you can max the ones that don't impact things much but tweak the ones that do. Unfortunately, though, every time I need to go "performance" I lose the dialed in settings and have to manually reset. It would be amazing if we could set a few templates and easily switch between them for the various parts of the game that tax our systems differently. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parasite.5389 Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 would be nice if there was a Custom option is addition to Best Appearance/Perfomance and auto-detect that just remembered the last setting you used so you can quickly lower your settings for big graphics hogs like Dragon's end, and then return to what you had before 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSD.4673 Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 "Dialled in" settings? C'mon, it's a couple of drop down boxes. This isn't 2004 (despite the engine being from then) where you could tweak every aspect of the graphics in a game. You have a handful of settings to work with. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoftFootpaws.9134 Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 (edited) i agree with the op, this has been one of my biggest issues since i started playing. i think the most notorius is that "character model limit" is how you solve the issue of the game losing over half its framerate when there's other players around, however many players don't know that this actually hides entire armies in the story (for example, in the battle against joko), or that sometimes it hides the boss you're attacking because their priority isn't clearly marked compared to players. having graphics setting profiles (and settings profiles in general) would help alot, i think, so we can fine-tune it to the situation.
