Okay so yea I bought the game and I played for a few hours, no problems whatsoever. Then I decided to go check out Lion’s Arch, so i step through the purple Asuran portal/gate thing going from Rata Sum and my game crashes, it reads.
“A serious error has occurred that prevents the program from continuing to run. You can help us prevent this error from occurring in the future by reporting it to ANet. Please press the Send button to report this error.”
Ok I’ve restarted the guild wars 2 client multiple times to only be at the Lion’s Arch loading screen which is then followed by a crash and this error. I’ve seen this error once before while I was just exploring and stuff and my friend said it happens sometimes, so I reported it and continued my journey. I’m level 12 I believe Asura/Elementalist. I can only get out of the Guild Wars 2 client after the crash by using Ctrl/Alt/Delete.

Had the exact same thing happen the other day. What finally worked for me was to turn my graphics down to low. Give that a try – can’t hurt.

Turning the settings down fixed the game lol, I can play now but I’m not sure if i can handle looking at the screen now. Is this a problem on ANet’s part? Nothing is wrong with my rig.

My guess is that we need new video drivers that conveniently haven’t been created yet. As far as playing with low graphics, I only turn them down when going into L.A. and then as soon as I’m done I turn them back up again. Haven’t seen the crash-loop anywhere else.
