Game was crashing immediately after hitting play in the launcher. Deleted all files, reinstalled, verified, repaired. Nothing seemed to fix it.

Running “-windowed” allows me to get into the game. I assume I can play normally, I haven’t bothered to try because of the crappy reso. Immediately after changing from windowed to any other display mode, the game crashes immediately like before. If I hit maximize, the game appears to go fullscreen, but with black bars around the same small resolution that was in the window by default. Alt tabbing kills the game. Resizing works, but I hate windowed games.

Crash first happened while running the game in windowed while using eyefinity. I cannot remember if I was changing display settings at the time.

The Overwolf client is crashing GW2. Either uninstall it, or disable it from running at start up.
