This seems to only happen when fighting Claw, and when there appears to be a lot of people (Which there always is) About close to the end this weird noise, comes out of nowhere, and all game sounds are muted. About a few seconds, or few minutes the game freezes/crashes and have to start up again.

It’s happened once with Shatterer, and possibly once with Teq, but always with Claw.

I’ve confirmed this with other players, mostly friends that they also have had this issue, or still do, but not as frequent as I have it. At first I thought it was some sort of strain? I know MMO’s tend to be CPU-Oriented, and I’d like to think my i5-2500k is MORE then enough, and so is my 6970.

During any major event, especially the dragons the frames take a massive beating (15 – 20fps) with everything High, no AA at 1080p. I thought that maybe that would cause’ this sound bug leading to crash… Now I’m not so sure.

Also… Is that an actual issue with the events? This horrible fps issue on good gaming rig’s is still very disappointing. Not sure if it has to do with all the amount of people on screen, or the events themselves.

I get that bug whenever there’s a lot of stuff going on. It happens a ton in WvW for me, as well as the dragons.
