Guild Wars 2

I found hostile tigers all over the place… none of them were charmable… they all wanted to eat me

Has anyone found a place to charm a tiger pet?

Sooo… unless they patch it over night… will we even get another beta weekend? Or any raid beta testing?

Please don’t tell me the game will be released with out any end-game content testing…

I mean… come to think of it, not a single major content patch since the release of this game wasn’t released as intended. Karka even had lag spikes with over a few minutes, FPS was down to single digits, fractals weren’t accessible at launch, LS stuff was (and some of it still is!) bugged…

You guys REALLY need another testing server for your content because this is getting ridiculous. Especially if you intend to give us raids every 2 months!

Other companies have raid testing alone for months and months before even pushing it to the live servers, and we don’t even have a working UI a few weeks before launch?

I still cant create a raid squad, only a normal squad. Is there a trick ?

Yea – it’s not working at all at the moment XD

Armor: Order of whispers medium legs

Once you equip the Order of Whispers medium legs armor, there’s a gap between the lower and the upper part of the character’s body – like someone sawed you in half.

The upper part of the body is floating several pixels above the legs. If I take the leg armor off, everything goes back to normal. I see there are several complains about this piece of armor already and I hope you fix it soon cause it’s really annoying running around Tyrija with a hovering torso

OK, so apparently a lot of people are getting this error. The game runs normally for 30min-1h, or even more and then just crashes with an error report or a BSOD.

I’ve experienced the same thing on a brand new high-end PC and I’ve tried all the tips and hints you can currently find on the internet.

1. Run memtest – Sure, this will show you if your memory modules are faulty, but in most cases (including mine), all ram modules are just fine and the game still keeps crashing

2. check your drivers – yup, another classic. but my drivers are all up-to-date since i bought my PC like 3 days ago

3. check the PS and make sure it has enough power to run all your components. the PSU is often an overlooked component and can lead to system crashes if it’s overloaded

4. Are any other games crashing or just GW2? If you get errors and BSODs in other games then you might be having hardware issues after all. If only GW2 crashes – then read on!

I’ve tried this on several different specs and on several versions of windows (XP, win7 32 and 64bit) and in every case it actually helped!

First – check how many RAM modules you have and make sure they’re not mixed pairs (always use same brand and same latency modules for your RAM). Then check what’s the frequency they run on and the latencies. (use Speccy or CPU-Z)

Even though RAM i have declares it can run on 1600Mhz (DDR3), and I manually set them to run at that speed – it was this BIOS feature that was causing the problem. Check your RAM SPD clocks and make sure your BIOS is set at that speed.

What happens is that (i guess) GW2 tries to allocate a specific memory address that doesn’t get allocated in time since your motherboard is forcing different RAM speed

After configuring all the RAM clocks in BIOS manually – GW2 runs perfectly with no crashes at all.

Still… It’s interesting how this affects only GW2 and not a single other game I have on my PC (for example – Skyrim, Diablo 3 and WoW run just fine for example)

Hopefully this helps someone
