Eragon Tanker.3281 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Hoping to find some help here, my game is freeing quite frequently lately. I play allot of PvP and it will freeze as a match is about to begin, when I click on the gem store, or moving around. I have not found anything that will consistently trigger the lock up. When it does I must power down my system to get out of the crashed game. I have sent a few reports to Anet when the game asks. This is very annoying in PvP because you will get dishonor and lose PIP. One thing new that has started to happen, that never did in the past, is when my game launches after log in GW2 will minimize down where I can see my desktop and then come back up when I reach the character selection screen. It will then again minimize down and come back up when loading into the pvp lobby or launching into a pvp map. Any ideas on this??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlippyCheeze.5483 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 If your system freezes to the point you need to power-cycle it, you have a hardware or driver level problem. Start by ensuring that your graphics drivers are completely up to date, and go on from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eragon Tanker.3281 Posted May 24, 2018 Author Share Posted May 24, 2018 I switched the GW2.exe to run in W7 compatability mode and so far no crashes nor does the game flash to my desktop when loading zones anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eragon Tanker.3281 Posted May 26, 2018 Author Share Posted May 26, 2018 Still locking up.........even in compatibility mode. any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eragon Tanker.3281 Posted June 3, 2018 Author Share Posted June 3, 2018 The game still locks up and this is getting frustrating because when it happens during pvp play I need to shut down to unlock the computer. Even when I return to the PvP match AND WE WIN............it gives me dishonor. I went from PLAT to Gold last pvp season because of this happening. I have updated all drivers. W10 is updated (i should have stayed with MAC) I even took the OC off my PC, its at stock now. System: Ryzen 1600, Asus GTX1070ti, 16 gb 3200mhz ram Any ideas?

Linken.6345 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 You could always try downgrading your graphics drivers sometimes the newest one make gw2 act up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When i first built this machine everything worked great, the crashes just started happening in the last pvp season. any other suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
