So I tried out WAR during the head start program and I have a couple questions.

How long is it supposed to take to get into a scenario? I leveled to 6 being queued the entire time and I never got in. Server pop is listed as med/high.

I have an overclocked Core2duo and an 8800gt that I would think can handle the game but even on 'highest framerate' the mob and other player animations appear to be missing about half the frames. When a running creature only has like 3 animation frames something is wrong. Anyone else have this issue?

I have yet to engage in any PvP but somehow I leveled to renown rank 2. How did that happen?

Thanks!
I was Rank 8 last night, and only got into the scenario RvR 2 times, and then nothing for the next 4 hours even though I was in the queue. From reading other boards this morning, the Tier 1 and Tier 2 scenarios were crashing last night.

Sometime around 10:30 pm pst, I took a break from PvE questing. I rolled 2 Engineers for the heck of it, named them Locken and Load. Before I completed the starting area quests, I was able to do 2 RvR scenarios. After I logged out, it was too late for my main R9 RR8 to queue because I already bound myself in a Tier 2 area, and can't queue to Tier 2 scenario until R10.

I have a Core 2 Duo lap top with 2x Go 7950 GTX and had to disable SLI. It was clunky when I set it at High Quality. I got a better result setting at Highest Framerate. My resolution is 1920 x 1200.

My AMD 64 Dual Code 4400 desktop have 1x 7800 GT @ 1680 x 1050 loads faster than the laptop, and it's also set at Highest Framerate.

As for getting some Renown XP via PvE, there are some quest, PQ that are RvR related and give Renown xp. Even if one grinds that way, it would be slower compared to the EXP + Renown XP via scenarios. Or you can just do RvR objectives too without doing scenarios.
