Curse

Hi.

My game is always crashing. One minute I am walking to the merchant and the next I am talking to a tree.

I thought that it was my old PC, buy my partner and I built identical computers last week and I still have problems. His account works fine, I will crash every 4-5 mins, sometimes for upto 30 seconds.
We are online with the same internet connection.
When he plays his account on my computer, he has no problems, but when I play my account on his, I still have problems.
I think that there may be a problem with my account [which I purchased new from HMV].

Please help, as it is spoiling my gaming!

Is your game CRASHING, as in closing, shutting down, end of program, or STUTTERING?

It sounds like low FPS, are you running the same settings in-game and windows as your partner?

Hey,

The game is freezing. I will be walking, the screen would freeze [like a non-responsive windows program] and then I will reappear somewhere else, because my character keeps on walking..or dying.

He is running on a higher setting that I am, I turned mine down because of the problems.

My FPS are the same at his, and it is generally 60.

Thanks,

the lag in gw is absolutly stupid, i know its not my computer..run every single test there is. updated it all..computer meets specs etc my internet connection is the fastest available in south west england.

to put it simply gw CAN NOT handle the amount of players who login at peak times.

only way i manage to avoid lag is play late at night /early morning.

at those times lag is non existant.

ping will go from average 500-1000 at peak to average 30-100 at night...

It does not matter what time I am playing. I have been online at 10am all the way to 3am, still the same.
It's very annoying.
