If I want to RAID I would still be playing WoW or go back to possibly FF 14. I'm tired of these MMO thinking that the only way to get people to do their group content is by putting item only obtainable in that game mode. I don't feel like Raiding even it's PVE content, I don't feel like doing any of the "traditional" group content that is part of the MMO gaming trope.

In the most recent update that introduced Colin and Grouch back to team, it was brought up about the design philosophy of putting players first. GW 2 is one of the few MMOs that exist that I feel has the robust crafting system that allows you to almost craft all top end gear. I say almost since currently Jewelcrafters can't craft ascended and unfortunately, seems that the game has falling victim to what has befallen every other MMO that only certain legendary items can be obtained by playing one of the three game modes, PVP, WVW, or by Raiding. This is the same restrictions that every other MMO has in terms of "vertical" progression that the "best" gear can only be obtained this way. I know that Ascended and Legendary share the same stats so it's not about "more power", yet the convivence of Legendary Armor as well the big game addition of the Legendary Armory where does that leave causal players. I am currently playing GW 2 and returned to the game primarily due to the fact in other MMOs, you feel like you are being forced into content you don't necessarily want to play or participate in to get anywhere in the game, or for the "vertical" progression. Even though Legendary Armor, Trinkets and other Legendary pieces are horizontal due to no power upgrade, they are a vertical progression in terms of convivence in the ability to change stats at will for the versatility of being able to run more than one build with out having to worry about a second set of gear. Since they are already long term projects to begin with, crafting any legendary in the game, why the restriction behind only 3 forms of game content to get the armor? Since returning after a 7 year break from the game, the addition of being able to craft precursors and legendary weapons was added, a nice addition. So why not armor?

Well I just crashed for the first time outside of Malchor's Leap, while doing Meta in The Desolation with the Jundu Wurms. And of course I get put onto the overflow map

Well I know this issue literally made doing daily yesterday impossible for the bonus events in Malchor's Leap. It was frustrating, I literally crashed 3 times in five minutes.

I don't think I had any issues as well until Tuesday, after updates to game.

I had no issues earlier today, but once again a crash in Malchor's Leap, I have submitted ticket and followed Tech Support Advice. I don't think this is something on our system side, this is something taking place on their side I'd have to say. I don't get the crash while in other zones and can play for hours, but once I got to Malchor's Leap to farm some Elder Wood and Mithril, crash.

Aye, I'm glad it's not just me. I know Nvidia had Driver updates recently and also Windows just did an update today. It could also be the server as Danger Ferret has stated.

I literally just had it happen again a minute ago. I did submit a support ticket to see if it's an issue I can fix on my side. Yet, it only just started yesterday I believe. Now it's almost a constant thing taking place.

I could see this being an issue, if I was having crashing in other places in the game. Yet, it is only taking place in Orr of all places.

Well each time I crash I am sending reports. I just had another happen just now.

I keep seem to be having an issue with game crashing while in Orr, in particular Malachor's Leap. I've had it happen twice now in the last 30 minutes, and I also had it happen yesterday while in Cursed Shore. I don't seem to have the issue in any other zone that I have noticed beside the Orr zones.
