Guild Wars 2

I’m the same as you Moriel. I got my gifts from the chest no problems. I’ve just logged in to find another set of gifts in an e-mail.
Perhaps an admin could comment on this to let us know what happens now?

If you have a widescreen monitor you could try the FOV beta switch?
“C:\Program Files (x86)\Guild Wars 2\Gw2.exe” -testVerticalFov
Just tag the -testVerticalFov on to the end of your desktop shortcut.
Worth the try.

Tried rolling back CCC (was running the latest beta). Updated latest drivers. Still the pc switches off or reboots.
Never happens during normal game-play only on personal story line. Getting frustrated now.
Anyone else having similar problems?
Any chance on some advice from a dev? Much obliged.

I’ve tried a GW2 repair, disabled the testVertical switch and got rid of the asus ram disk.
Still crashes at the exact same point in the story. In the orphanage quest I get to clean up the ground floor. As soon as I fire of a shot at the goon on the half-landing…crash….
It cant be a hardware prob if the crash happens at the same point every time.
Anyone else having similar probs?

I am running Win 7 x64
8Gig ram
Radeon 6870 HD (so no PhysX probs lol )

As I said I can play for hours but cant get past this point in story.
I made a human mes as my 1st char when game came out and got past the story no probs. There has been a number of updates since then and my hardware has not changed so I can only assume it is a code problem.

My pc reboots whenever I am playing a personal storyline.
On 2 of my chars the pc crashes at the exact same point in the story. “Light in the Darkness” and “Arson at the Orphanage”. All temps within normal ranges (cpu + gpu). I cant understand why this could be anything other than a code issue.
I can play PvE, WvW and dungs for hours at a time with no probs (I do sometimes get the previously posted issue with black screens with sound).

After being stuck waiting on “The Hatchery” being fixed I was delighted to get cracking on with my PS. 3 times on the trot my PC crashed during this story-line all at the same point. I spoke to the Pale Tree the 1st time in Orr but every time I get anywhere near her for the second “talk” my system crashes. Is this anything to do with the bug mentioned above? If so, how long will take to be fixed this time?

Thanks for the update Jeff.
Now how about some compo for all the players who have been stuck for weeks waiting on this being fixed?
