Last night, I had a terrible experience in WvW…I mean, everything was fine, it was a blast and i’ve never seen anything like it before.

At a certain point, there was an insane battle. I don’t even know how many players were involved, I think it’d be impossible to know. When the action got insane, my sound (only in the game) completely bugged/crashed. I didn’t hear anything anymore, just a loud and intermittent beeping (sort of?) This had happened only once before, and it stopped when i closed the client. When i had restarted the client it was fine.

This time, however, seconds after the beeping started, the game completely froze, now generating a different sound. The only way to quit was to start task manager, etc…

Is this something others have experienced? It’s only happened twice in the countless hours of GW2 i’ve played over the last couple of weeks, and ONLY when i’ve been in the middle of some crazy action.
