Hey,

Just got new update and the graphics have gone weird. My character has been pulled towards the screen as a stream of colours.

Anyone getting the same problem or know what might be wrong?

It was fine 5 minutes before the update as I was playing happily, I have triied reloading and changing my graphics around -- no effect.

Same. Intel 915G imbedded which, UP TIL NOW, had been playing 100% okay with pretty good graphics settings. But I'm getting the same results on an old 4200ti card as well on a seperate desktop computer.

As an added bonus, -my- character is fine; but every other human character on the screen (town NPCs, other players, Kournan enemies, et cetera) have the stretch-to-singularity thing going on.

I have the exact same problem. Every other characters are marked with streams of colour. Just a thought, for people who have this problem, what video cards are you guys using?
Please fix this.
Someone should contact anet technical support directly.

Yeah, I'm clearly having the same probelm.

Indeed, it would be good to know what graphics chips you all are using. I'm using the Intel 945M chipset (for laptops).

OK i have and Intel, u have, and that other guy has an intel. SO obviously the patch doesn't like our Intel chips. Which i think we are all using the onboard ones for laptops.
So at least GW is going to know the cause of the problems and this should be fixed.

I am having the same issues as you all. I'm using a DELL Inspiron E1405 with Intel 945GM Express Chipset. Before patch everything was wonderful, now its so hard to even play.

Intel 915 GM here, and also a laptop. Yes it seems that there is a problem with intel cards. Has someone mailed to anet about this yet?

Mine has intel, and its glitching...loaded up on my sister's computer, which has some other card, and it works fine. Gotta be the intel.

Yep. Horrible graphics problems... I especially like the floating legs...

I have Intel graphics card.

I have e-mailed PlayNPC to alert them of the problem.

And a note to Stalker Haras and Johnathan Wilson: Just because you have Intel and aren't experiencing issues does not mean that Intel isn't the problem. Remember - every system is different, and we have yet to see someone with this issue that does not have in Intel chipset.

Yay... it did work.. thanks for everyone posting down there video cards or i might not have noticed that, but i guess someone else would have caught it after me anyways.

Well I just joined today and I think...wait i know that i will be posting on these forums a lot more...

I have to say that ANet is did an amazing job at cleaning this little mess up so quickly, and that tells a lot about how much they care about us the gamers.

Thanks to everyone!

You gotta love Photoshop!

It's a good thing they fixed the graphics things quickly. So many lines!!

Did anyone who was having this problem notice increased choppiness after the fix, compared to performance pre-update? My ping's alright but I'm getting pretty low framerates a lot of the time, playing the same areas and character I had been before.
