Guild Wars 2

From crowded maps like Tequatal, to being all alone in my guild hall, every 30 minutes or so the game simply crashes.

And no, it has nothing to do with my computer.

I have an i7-2600 CPU
r9 290x Graphics card
And of 8GB of ram.

People with specs that are a third of mine don’t have this issue.

Can somebody please try and help?

1) You might have better luck posting in the Tech Support sub-forum.

2) When the crash report comes up, click ‘Show Details’, so others can provide some suggestions.

Good luck.

There is a very long thread in the tech support forums on this issue. Your best bet is to keep that thread up top and watch for any users who have fixed the problem themselves (or until anet does).
Good luck, I’ve had my fair share of tech problems with GW2.

Hey DaniTheHero, I had that problem the first day and I found out somewhere on the forums that it has to do with windows 32 bit and 64 bit. Apparently, I don’t think GW2 supports 32 bit anymore. Ever since I reinstalled windows 7 64 bit, the crashing stopped!

Are you sure you aren’t downloading a new patch? Sometimes the game automatically closes to download the new patch.

If not, then try tech forums.

I keep crashing, too. It surely is not on my end, but rather on anet’s end as I’ve heard many people complaining about this.

You have to click show details, otherwise this is useless.

HoT is on the edge of the 32-bit memory limitation, which you can do nothing about since GW2 is a 32-bit application. On a 32-bit OS, the limit is a little lower, so it’s easier to trigger, resulting in the OOM crash. The new zones crash fairly frequently even on a 64-bit OS, about once an hour or two for me. I restart the client after every meta event cycle to avoid it.

Lowering your settings might help. It’s what I’ve had to do.

I seem to crash more often when I have my setting on “auto-detect” (everything switched to high settings). Is that coincidental or is it the graphics crashing me?

I’d crash occasionally before the expansion, but now it happens several times a day, especially if I set my settings to how they were before the expansion launch (high).

I have 16GB of RAM, an i7-3770k CPU, and a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 card. I’m on Win7 64 bit.

I built this computer to play GW2 back at launch, is it out of date now?

I got GB of RAM, i7-4790K and GTX 980ti, on win8 64 bit. Never crashed before xpack, crasing now all the time. I play on highest settings, but never had an issue before. I seriously doubt it’s on my side, but it’s getting annoying as hell.

Also, as it seems to be happening to more people, it must be on Anet’s end.
