What tracks did you put in each playlist?
Tech support told me to install new drivers, so I completely uninstalled my old ones, and then installed new ones. I am now running Catalyst 14.4 drivers. However, I am getting the same problem. My PC is still freezing, but it only starts freezing in SPvP. The thing is that I don’t know what could be causing this issue. I do big World Events like Tequatl and Triple Trouble, yet these seem to not give me problems. On the other hand when I go into SPvP I might be able to get one match in, before the PC freezes.
I wanted to also add that this problem was happening two days ago in the Twilight Arbor dungeon instance.
I am going to do a clean install of GW2 to see if that fixes anything. If anyone reading this has information that could be helpful in solving this problem it would be appreciated.
I sent in a support ticket, so let’s see what they tell me to do. I will probably open up my PC to see if there are any anomalies on the inside.
Problem: The last few times I have tried to play SPvP, my PC just freezes up during a match, and I have to restart my entire PC to play again. This problem namely occurs when I waypoint after I am dead (during the load screen). What happens is my sound messes up and I am stuck at the loading screen (there is no loading circle on the screen). I cannot exit to my desktop or start my task manager. This problem used to happen before when I played, but it stopped for a while, but started again when I started to SPvP again. Any information on how to solve this problem would help.
PC Specs:
OS: Windows 7 64bit
CPU: Intel® Core™ i5-2500K CPU @ 3.30GHz
RAM: 16 GB
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 7870 Sapphire
Catalyst Version: 13.12
If you need more information, let me know.
Edit: This happens to me in PvE as well now. It is not only on loading screens anymore as well (in accordance with the poster below).

15% chance to block ranged attacks.
Anet said they want the 6th bonus on runes to be more reliable, but they made a 30 point GRANDMASTER trait pretty unreliable.
Does this trait only affect arrows from longbows?
If that’s the case, then I don’t understand why Anet didn’t just add this effect to Eagle Eye… This trait is just improving one thing on one weapon. Imo a grandmaster trait should do more than this.
Did you guys honestly expect lucrative rewards from WvW? If they did, then it would completely break WvW balance because everyone would flock over to a winning server.
If you want good reward-time spent ratio, then PvE is that way —-——->
I’m glad that Anet didn’t make WvW into a reward-based system.
Why, exactly, shouldn’t WvW be properly rewarded? What warrants for WvW having worse rewards than, the much easier, PvE content?
It seems only 1st place worlds got an exotic weapon. This is so dumb… These rewards can be obtained in a fraction of the time it took to get the achievement through champion farming. Anet needs to think about this stuff before putting it out….. The very fact that they gave greens is disappointing.
I think one thing people should keep in mind is that releasing rewards that everyone gets at the same time can be damaging to the economy. Something account bound like achievement skins might have been a good option for them, but its not like they were going to flood the market with exotics.
That sounds like it would’ve been a better route to take, rather than a handful of greens and yellows.
Giving out rewards that a player can acquire in literally a few hours was bad decision making on Anet’s part.

Ever tried running Slaver’s Exile without a ranger running Frozen Soil? GL!
Actually I have, several times…as well as Vloxens. But I’d also point out you never needed a Ranger just to keep Frozen up anyway. Usually your SpiritSpammer or MOP Necro dropped it.
In that instance, most rangers are spirit spammers. But it is brutal without FS.
looks like this is as close as we’re getting to some kind of recognition from the Devs.
The “missing the entire point” comes to mind here following that conversation….Yeah. Unfortunately that reply seems typical of them as of late. I don’t think they realize that they’re almost at the one year mark and people will start being a lot more critical of such a crucial thing as class balance. Especially with a few notable and hyped MMOs around the corner.
It seems like they are risking losing a lot of playerbase just to chase the eSports thing.
Actually you would use a rit over a ranger to do spiritspamming and frozen soil, because rits could have more effective ritualist spirits (using the rit runes which rangers couldn’t use) and to use FS effectively you wouldn’t need to spec too far into WS, so rits/ necros were the better choice in those situations. Also, rits could effectively do splinter barrage as well, due to the runes that gave them +attribute, which made splinter weapon deal more damage the ranger could make it do.
In this game, I believe rangers need to be paid more attention to, especially in dungeons/fractals.
