Guild Wars 2

When I zone into certain zones, my character model does not appear (up to 5 minutes before fully loading). Sometimes it does not load at all (within my patience level which is around 10 minutes). I can move my character around but the model is underground.

Are there any suggestions?

My computer is a laptop, Alienware M14X

Intel® Core™ i7-2630QM CPU @2.00GHz 2.00GHz

4.00 GB of RAM

Very frustrating, I always miss world events because my character loads under the map and by the time my model fully loads the boss is dead.

Any suggestions?

Try updating your graphics drivers to the latest version. What GPU do you have and operating system? With that information I can point you to the latest driver.
