Guild Wars 2

Hey all,

Title pretty much says it all. I’m wondering if the helm on the armorsmithing window background exists in-game. I’m talking about the top one, with the face mask, and horns curved towards the front.

I thought it was the Barbaric helm, but the horns are towards the back, and there are tiny horns lined along the top, which I find silly.

Thanks!

New error message, with no option to send report:

Guild Wars 2 has encountered and unrecoverable graphics driver error and must terminate.

So what are we doing wrong?

Bump! Same problem.

I haven’t played in nearly a week because of this. And in the same while missing all the Halloween stuff…

Hello,

So my game has been running fine (with the exception of all the common mass errors, that is) up until this week. A few days ago I started getting my first game crashes, two of which allowed me to send in reports. One was what seems like the commonly widespread c00…..5 error. The other one mentioned graphics drivers. Unfortunately I don’t have the reports, unless they’re saved somewhere.

Today, I haven’t been able to play for more than a minute until things start going haywire. When typing in the chat, it seems to link to random items. Then, the text in the chat starts to be overlaid on everything, from event pop-ups to the game menu (Esc) options. Then the screen freezes/“buzzes”. Minimizing the game helps for a few minutes and it starts all over again.

I have updated my drivers to the latest. Problem persists. Help?

Specs:

Windows 8 CP build 8250
i7-2600
12GB RAM
128 M4 SSD + 1.5 TB HDD
HD 6950 2GB

What else do you need?

EDIT: I just tried again, and this time, as I kept on running around Lion’s Arch with the misplaced chat texts, the ground became black. Obviously graphical issue. Then the game crashed, and allowed me to send a report:

Out of memory? Really?

Still bugged. Dragonbrand server.

I don’t think this has been posted before. If it has, I apologize.

I think the interface and general graphical design of windows feel very PC-like, and less like they are integral parts of the game. An example which causes most of my distress is the ugly X (close) button. It is too reminiscent of a classic Windows XP interface. The general feeling is that the interface windows feel very box-like and somewhat ruin whatever immersion is intended.

I do however, greatly appreciate the possibility to open multiple windows (inventory, hero, etc) at the same time, and to be able to move them around is very nice.

Anyone else think that? I think this would be a very easily solvable “problem.”
