Since day one I’ve had a serious issue with these areas.
Whenever I’m in them for more than a few minutes my sounds begins to distort (like static) and eventually my game will begin to freeze for a few frames, the textures will all fade, then it will snap back to normal for about a minute before doing it again.
About 10 minutes ago I was in Black Citadel (map completion) for no more than 5 minutes, and it froze my computer, I had to hard restart it.
My computer is more than powerful enough to run this game at max without problems in any other area, so I’m 100% certain that it’s Black Citadel and Plains of Ashford that are the problem.
The only abnormal thing setting I use is windowed fullscreen, simply because I alt-tab a lot so it’s just convenient for me.
I’ve never actually played the game in normal fullscreen but I’ve never had this problem anywhere else in the game.
Has anyone else had this problem?
