Frequent crashes in Gendarran Fields

[Xainou.1502]

Whole map getting dc'd like every 2 minutes to character select. Also does a mini rollback, progress of the last minutes isn't saved.

Possibly related to something with the beta chars since they tend to go there from LA?

[Rockhound.9605]

Same. Waypointed out of Gendarran Fields fast after the last crash. Not sure if that'll fix it, but worth a try.

 

[Novaris.7156]

I wonder if it’s related to the beta stuff, something in this update weird, I was in Harathi Hinderlands, accepted the new spotlight episode mail then crashed in the process, now it wants to run a repair (and I never crashed before and was told to run a repair upon relaunching) 😕

and I just crashed again in queensdale, this time it was pulling up black lion

same, crashing in Harathi and always rolling back to something like the last checkpoint, I guess. . I'm now porting to Mistlock Sanctuary frequently, hoping to save my status. I think I chose the wrong day to level a new toon.

 

I'd rather opt out from this beta, really.

[Cugel.5236]

I've had 5 crashes in about 5 min total playtime. Different maps. The game is unplayable.

[Cameryn.5310]

Queensdale too.  I'm trying to do map completions and it's now rolled me back FIVE TIMES in the past 30 minutes.  Doesn't keep my waypoint/heart progress between them either.  UGH.

[Luminoxic.5812]

Same just happened to me on a non-beta character at Plains of Ashford. Rolled back 10 minutes ago and none of my map completion counted. Gonna try disable DX11 for now to see if it helps.

[nobleboivin.4102]

Same here.  Non beta character, plains of ashford.  Don't use add ons (Didn't know gw2 supported addons tbh).  So much for getting a character to 80 today TT

Constant rollbacks, mainly in Gendarran fields, game is unplayable as of now... I am getting kicked to char select every 2-3 minutes...

[Cameryn.5310]

I believe it's every map... certainly the Central Tyria ones.  On average it rolls back about every five minutes - the game is UNPLAYABLE at the moment.

[kharmin.7683]

Yeah, this is probably due to the beta.  Getting dc'd quite a lot.

[Dami.5046]

thought it was my ascension getting me grief, code7 every time i set the stats.

[darksome.1697]

@Fire Attunement.9835 Same thing here, and like last character beta, it starts in Gendarran (where you end up with your beta chars) which now kicks you out every 2 minutes, and then people spread these beta characters around the rest of the game  like a virus, and it'll crash everyone in those zones too. If you're trying to mimic covid, job done.

Put a Lockdown on Gendarran please, close the airport, close the portals, pull beta chars back to there and let them crash that zone in a separate instance for beta chars only. 

Edit: Gendarran now kicks me out every 15 seconds and does a rollback.

I don't like the DCs either, but quarantining the beta characters to one, low level zone won't help bring in the data Anet is probably looking for.

This was happening last night in Dragons Stand and Auric Basin as well.  

 

Its happening more frequently now today though.

Now that you mentioned that, I did have a dC a couple times yesturday but I thought it was my end cuase my net was slow

[Tiamat.8254]

Getting the same. Just completed some events in harathi for the daily, including discovering and getting hero points and bam, booted to the character select screen.

The metas were more or less unplayable last night, we had crashes + rollbacks every ~3 minutes in AB and about as frequently in DS. 

[Sunsetter.5637]

Same, multiple maps. The update broke the game for me 

EDIT: POSSIBLE FIX

Disabling DX11 seems to have stopped it (no crash for 10min whereas before I couldnt last 2).

Thanks to Luminoxic.5812 for suggestion

I've not got the DX11 beta on 😕 I turned it off a while ago as couldn't handle the crashes.

[Gildersleeve.4792]

also having multiple connection losses in either Gendarren or QDale with the two betas I've tried so far. Guess I'll build the Ranger and suspend playing for a while 'til it gets stabilized. Love the Mech, though .. holy cow!

[Sunsetter.5637]

@Tiamat.8254 Sorry to hear that 😞

Maybe turning it on now will help? 😛

EDIT: Nevermind, still crashes, just took longer. Hope devs fix this

no fix

[Mogsterfortytwo.6712]

Affecting beta and non-beta, so far I've had problems in Gendarren Fields, Sylvari home instance, LA an Caledon. The Caledon one one exiting the game went for a full 'verify game cache' run. DX11 disabled; the Labyrinth does not like it! It seemed fine when I played this morning but unplayable this evening with the beta!

[kharmin.7683]

DC in Wayfarer, Queensdale and Dredgehaunt.   Didn't get to other maps as I grew tired of the DCs.

[Tamahera.1487]

DC and rollbacks in Gendarran, didn't have the patience to try other maps.
All was fine until the patch/Beta.
