Guild Wars 2

For the past 3 weeks or so, I’ve been experiencing frequent game crashes at the most inopportune times. The following meta events have caused my client to crash:

Dragon’s Stand
Auric Basin
Tequatl
Tangled Depths

Frankly, I don’t mind the crash. It’s not such a big deal. But the problem is this: once you’ve been removed from the map, your spot isn’t reserved and getting back in is very improbable.

It is EXTREMELY frustrating when you spend ~1 hour in any map and are rewarded with absolutely nothing. It makes progression difficult and ultimately deters me from playing this game.

I’ve tried all of the suggestions from updating to 64 bit client (my ram is fine) to ensuring that my graphics driver is up to date (it always is). Nothing has made a difference.

I really love this expansion and want to continue to enjoy it but it’s been difficult. Begging the devs to address this in a timely fashion. Couldn’t care less about the new Shatterer at this point.

Could you post your crash log?

I have been experiencing this since HoT launch, with random crashes most often during metas. It is immensely frustrating, particularly in DS. Just now I’ve been kicked as the dragon died, so I get returned to an empty map and killed by the timer, and I’ve wasted two hours on the events and still can’t get any rewards, xp or credit or get to the vendor to buy the collection item I need or work more on map completion.

It’s been months now and it’s getting ridiculous. This is a serious bug, IMO, not a minor one. Why is there no fix? What exactly is causing the crashes and what is being done to address it?

Edit: full search turned up the crash dump log, but it’s way too long to post – 55 pages in my word processing software.

I know I’ve been having massive crash issues during meta events with my Mac client. Usually the large ones that require an organized map or a full map like Auric Basin’s Octovine, Tangled Depths’s Chak Gerent, or any part of Dragon’s Stand. It wouldn’t be as frustrating if there was a system in place to ensure we get our maps back after a crash or lag out…
