NVidia GeForce Experience & NS2

NS2 ain't on nVidia's GeForce Experience list.
I'm using the 320.49 driver, which comes with the option to use the tool.

Is there a way NS2 can benefit from this technology, and if so how do we get it on the list?

    All it does is download new drivers automatically, and adjust ingame graphics settings. Both of which you can do by yourself. There are no actual gains this "technology" brings. ;)

    Yep, also nvidias definition of playable is totally different than to a gamers perspective. for example nvidia might have high settings 30 fps, gamers would want medium settings 50 fps. So use that geforce experience software with caution.

    the software is ment for either a global indication of settings or to help gamers who havent a inkling about settings, change them to a more beautiful apearance.
    Yes there are many many gamers who run in lowest resolution for example because they simply have no clue. You' be surprised.

    I dont follow its advice 100% because it never likes windowed mode, but for new games it may give a hint in which area you can test your own settings.

    It's no surprise really, if you didn't game in a time where resolution actually meant your game looking either horrible or great, why'd you pay attention to it.

    There's probably a zillion things like these that just aren't that important anymore so nobody knows about them.

    I'll still continue to be amazed that I can download one megabyte in a second. One MEGABYTE. In a SECOND. That's HUGE! :P

    I use nvidia experience, and it is pretty helpful. Most games it says to max everything though. I guess it's good for people with lower end pcs. Considering the performance problems that ns2 has it might help.

    Ok, I know enough about drivers to pick my own settings, I guess.
    But for people who want to use it for NS2, the game first has to make it on the list...at least, I didn't see an option to add games manually.
