Okey so I was playing this game, enjoying myself very much, kicking ass taking screenshots every two seconds, caus this game is just goddam beautiful, it looks ten times better than in the previouse beta. I played a little, and finally found the charcther that fits me and is still very usefull for me. A Zealot( monk/warrior), I also enjoy beeing monk/elemtalist but unfortunatly you don't get any xp for healing and I have no time to fight generally, I'm very busy healing which I like, but doesn't get me much level ups. So now I found a good charcter and a kickass party, we were just minding our own business and kicking ass, whne all of a sudden my screen went bazerk, and then I remmebrd why i left the previouse beta. My stpid comp when there is a lot of action on the screen messes up and I get this stupid message "send report ot ATI"( yeah right like they are going to do a shit about it), but anyway I do that, and then i have to restart my comp.
Jezus freaking Christ this is not cs or ut pub match where it doesn't matter this as a freaking rpg, It took me ****ing time to get to the level I'm at now and to find the right character and party, it takes gooddam hours, and I'm not going to do it again cause I know from my first beta that this shit is going to happen every time when there is a lot of action on the screen.

For all you that don't know Guild Wars, it's a kickass mmorpg, a little like diablo2, only not as stupid, or monotonous, and way more beautifull, really one of the most beautifull games today, technically and especially art wise. It's party missions are kick ass and it's PvP is just incredibly fun, unfortunatly I have never played another rpg's PvP so I can't compare.

Here is it's official website:
http://www.guildwars.com/

Anyways there are no screenshots online that show how it looks now, maybe on the offcial page but that is incredibly slow.
I wanted to upload some of mine to imagshack but it wont go for some reason, there is soem problem, and they still wouldn't do the game right, atleast but more than the other screenshots.
(edit: wait some will upload.)

And my specs are 2.4 ghz AMD Athalon(VIA KT400 motherboard)
512mb ram, sapphier radeon 9800 pro 128 mb atlantis

Tell me has anyone else experinced this problem, and have you fixed it and how.
I'm going to look at the GW messageboards to try to find a solution, mybe something like turning fast write off in the ATI control panel or something liek that. In any case share your experiences good or bad about this beta and GW.
 
Currently playing and enjoying myself greatly :), such a sw33t game \o/
 
AMD Sempron 2.0ghz
768 RAM
9800pro
and same mobo as j00
 
Regarding that problem, try disabling the VPU recovery.

Regarding the game, yeah its pretty good. Very pretty, very fast. Excellent interface.
 
Ok, I'll try I have allready turned agp acceleration from 8x to 4x, cause that stopped BG&E from chrashing.
 
Don't disable VPU Recover itself. That's what prevents the computer from having to restart. disable the report message, that's what crashes the game. I have this VPU Recover problem with EVERY game. I just disabled the message, and everything worked like a charm so far. (So far is the key word)
 
hey I did what Dawler said, and thnx it worked like a charm, now I can finally enjoy this game, and I'm going to take your advice ray_MAN to. So everybody thnx.
And BTW did any of you win the last fight in the PvP match, I came very close to the end with one group and we nearly beat it but the other group managed to recover and won.

Oh yeah and be sure to post your nick in the game, mine is Jane Black, I created a female character becasue they are a lot more fun to look at them the males ;).
 
looks nice
im definately gonna check this one out since there's no monthly fee :)
