Guild Wars 2

I’m having similar issues. It gets to the character select but kicks out to the desktop before any character models load. Mine does bring up the crash report window, but I have to use the task manager to get to it. The mouse pointer is in GW form rather than the regular arrow otherwise. Interestingly, this only happened after a partial internet outage – there was something wrong on the line that dropped my line to 0.08Mbps down, and I did launch the updater during that time.

Now that is just bizarre. Issue still unresolved. Still need help, crakittens not withstanding.

Same problem, except that mine crashes as the character select is loading. Started after the update.

After the last update, my game client is crashing right as it is loading the character select screen. I see the background, the character slots, name and level of the last active character. The client then crashes out to my desktop and the GW2.exe crash reporter window appears.

I’m running Windows 7 on a standard HP Pavilion dv6-6173cl (which has Radeon switchable graphics). I have been playing the game for months now without any problems.

I’m just wondering if this has happened to anyone else, and whether ANet is looking into it. Thanks!

Edit: Why in the world is the topic “Client crakitten start up” when I typed “Client crakitten start up”? That’s still the topic title, as far as I can tell. This i just a really weird day.
