Guild Wars 2

I’m having the same issue. I’ve only had it in the human starting area once (when the final animation triggers) and when I’m in Queensdale on the “Help farmer Diah” heart twice pre FPS cap, once after when you trigger one of the worms to pop up.

I’ve played hours upon hours without the crash outside of that zone.

I tried limiting the FPS to 60 and installed the recommended drivers which seemed to fix it at first, untill I made another character and went to do the “Help farmer Diah” heart again.

To be safe I’ve further limited the FPS to 30. No crashes since, though that was the same when I had the FPS capped at 60.

This does indicate a problem with the game rather than heating issues (GPU doesn’t go above 62 celcius), haven’t checked the CPU but I’ve got some serious cooling on it and it’s running stock speed.

My system is as follows:

2500K
8GB ram
Geforce GTX 570
Asus P8P67
XFX 600W PSU

I’ve had similar issues with Diablo 3 which were sorted by capping the FPS to 70 and turning off vsync. That’s also what I tried with GW2. I’ve not crashed in D3 since, but it has happened in GW2 (as described above).

As the area where the problem occurs is limited and it doesn’t happen in high load situations, with tons of players on screen blasting away, it does seem to be software related.
