Guild Wars 2

Hello. Since the newest patch, I’m no longer able to play for longer than four minutes or less. I usually gets as far as loading Southsun shore, were I was when the new update started, but then the game crashes and I get the message: A serious error has occurred that prevents the program from continuing to run. You can help us prevent this error in the future by reporting it to ArenaNet. Pleas press the Send button to report this error. (etc, etc)
I’ve sent the report and done the recommended repair afterwards, but the problem prevails.
I’ve had a lot of trouble with guild wars the past month, but thought I might be out of the woods now. I’m running on Clean Boot, without any results. Anyone else got this problem?

Thanks everyone

I’m attaching my test report:

same problem but i cant even enter the game.

hmm serious problem here .. me and 3 other gets the same every 6-8 minutes game crash since the patch

Getting same problem, consistant crashing every 5 mins since update. Mainly in WvW.

I can’t enter WvW map since the patch. Game crashed each time I do so.

Only crashed twice today – but still annoying. Both times in WvW and it was a ‘hard’ client crash. Could not alt-tab or control-esc. Had to bring up task manager and exit the client.

FWIW I have been lucky – today are the first two crashes I’ve had going all the way back to the beta weekends last year.

3 times in under 15 minutes. Mostly would freeze in game and I would have to Alt F4 out.

Please fix this Anet!

Yeah, same here. Had to Alt F4 twice in under 5 minutes. One was so bad actually couldn’t get task manager to stop the game at all and had to restart my PC. Lost out on two meta events….

Same Problem, Crashed during loading screen, Waited about 10 minutes but progress Bar wasnt moving at all, Had to Enter task manager to close program, Was in the middle of Loading into a meta event too. :/

Before this patch, 1 crash since headstart. Tonight, 3 times already. Trying different video modes. Two crashes full screen 1080p, one crash windowed full screen. Now trying windowed.

Crashed again in window mode.

I usually don’t crash (last crash was more than 1 month ago) but today after the update i got 2 crashes, one in PvE and one in WvW. Each time the game freezes on the lastest image but the sound keeps playing in the back.

I’ve got three machines in the house running GW2 and three separate accounts. All of them are doing the same thing… crashing within seconds of starting. Most of the time it doesn’t even get loaded completely but crashes with the message;

The game client lost its connection to the server.
Please wait a few minutes before restarting the
client and trying again. (Code=7:11:3:191:101)

…and then goes back to the Login screen when you acknowledge it

At first I thought my internet connection was the issue and tested my connection. I ran a ping /t and watched a clean no-hiccup screen on my second monitor while it crashed.
I even went so far as to replace my router with a backup unit to no avail.

What’s up? Surely, with three machines getting the symptom at the same time, there must be an external factor at work?!

Hi there,

Intel i5 / Nvidia GTX 280 here.
Since 17/06 updates, the game freezes with video artifacts, in McM and World Map, even with minimal quality settings.

No change were made on machine except GW2 updates.

Other games and 3d benchmarks are still running fine.

Same problemm, crashes and freezes… If I set the minimum settings I can play for a while, but then again GW2 crashed… It’s started in May for me.

I reintalled a game, a video drivers, a DirectX, I cheched a RAM and HDD, but no errors founds and nothing helps.
