Claw of Jormag event
Yes, it happened to me also. First skipping sound then GW2 crashed. Had to set the graphics settings to low to stop it. Strange thing is, that this is the first time I had to set the graphics to low, in the rest of the game I can set everything to high without any FPS or crash problems.
The game crushed 5 times at the end of phrase 2 Jormag. Contributed so much in the previous hour and in the end no chest. This is the 1st time game crushed so badly in my Jormag huntings. I usually face the audio problems too. It gives out pulse alike sound nonstop until i had to turn off the game’s vulome.
The same has happened to me twice. During two different playing sessions, when participating in the “Claw of Jormag” event (never on any other part of the game, even dragon bosses) suddenly my sound controler goes nuts and starts to emit a VERY annoying high-pitch sound, and after about 1 minute, the game goes to desktop with an error and crashes.
The first occasion though, the game did not crash, but the only way to make the sound stop, wasto close the game client app.
I have the same problem and I missed 2 chests because of this stupid crush. It shows a box of ‘Serious error occurred’. The ironic part is I actually have a same laptop, bought at the same time with my roommate and she runs fine everytime. PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP, wasted few hours and got noshing because of this problem!!
Yes I also crash easily up to 10 times during the Claw of Jormag, or any event with lots of people, just like you say, my sound cuts out, starts doing that “Vooom… Vooom.. Vooom.” thing, then the came crashes. Losing patience with it myself.
lol it would be funny if not so depressing. Crashed on my server near the start of jormag, went into the overflow was lucky and got into jormag again, crashed just as dragon was about to die. Same issue, sound crashed then game. Strangly happened now for the first time.
