we need a high res texture pack as an optional download

no thanks and bad idea! Imagine the high res texture: your PC or PS4 system has way more to handle than before for graphics and even more in raids with 24 people! The System can get behind resulting in Frame rate drops, game freeze, system overheat + damage, or even client crashes. and.. uhh... I dont want our nice game gets minutes of long loadscreens like FF15 has...

When was the word optional removed from the dictionary?

I haven't gotten much dlc from the mog station. But if this was done correctly and a one time op in I would gladly pay for this one.

Also my 1070 feels like it's going to waste on this.


As for raids. Don't let us use it for content like that till echo out for it.

Anyway, in the subject of not wanting to wait for other people to load, it could be locked behind minimum system requirements.

In the very least it's easily arguable that the older character textures could use reworking.

This expansion really showed just how bad the overall graphical quality is right now. I never thought I wouldn't want big zones but after seeing the new zones I rather go back to small more filled areas. And all the cutscenes with jaggy armor was very bad. Luckily the voice acting and overall story was great and I can look past the graphical aspect but enough is enough! Let us have some better graphic options! Textures 100% need a boost.

While we're on this topic, supersampling would be cool as well.

I would like to see a Hi-res cutscenes texture pack released so that at least the cutscenes would be fitting to a great level of detail for the game with such a good story.

It would be nice, but I'd even take an option to make everything look permanently wet. Everything looks better wet, clothing textures and even character skin looks more natural. They honestly should use the current wet versions of textures as the base from now on.

I have noticed this is heavily an issue in new gear when trying to take screenshots and the like. the pixels are almost painful when trying to take a close up. I also support an optional HD pack. Maybe even one that can be tweaked on how/when you use it. Like, I don't need the HD in a dungeon since I'm normally zoomed out, but outside of it would be awesome and improve cutscenes so much. I cringe at them at the moment.

Yes please. The textures are awfully low res. Implement them as an option for those who can run them. And those who play on lower end machines can still play the game as it is without sacrificing any performance.

And this is what V1.0 looked like:

+1 for a high res texture pack. They could also just add the options WoW has to decrease your settings anytime you enter a raid. Also while we are at it, can we also have the option to use the 1.0 UI? 2.0+ UI has always felt way too clean for a game set in such a heavily fantasy based world.
