Dear lord am I glad I waited for Guild Wars 2 to go FtP before trying it out. That was the most frustrating buggy experience out of any MMO I've played, and I'm including the Matrix Online beta where, when I tried to enter a building, the game sent me floating into the air and then dropped me to my death.
On the bright side, my drivers and BIOS are all completely up to date now, and I've installed the latest Windows updates on my system.
That's interesting, I've generally heard nothing but good things about GW2 in the past, though since I'm not an MMO guy, I was never going to buy it anyway. Maybe the servers are overloaded by the people flooding in now that it's free-to-play?
Nothing like that. The game pretty much crashes my entire PC after a few minutes every time. I've done pretty much everything you can to troubleshoot short of hardware replacement and an OS reinstall, and nothing has made a single bit of difference. Apparently this has been a problem with a small percentage of people who have tried to play the game since the beginning, and as far as I can tell, no definitive solution has ever been found. Looks like I'm one of those people. Yay, me.
I was kind of getting the MMO bug again, and I thought this would be a good one to get into. Apparently the game feels otherwise. Maybe I'll try FF14 next.
