From the comments I've read so far, it seems everyone's blaming the developers or whatever instead of blaming the exploiters! :/ Yeah, the developers made some muck ups and such, but ffs, they're only human!! Anyways, hope you guys can fix this up. Was looking forward to that companion when I saw it was deactivated.
Got the same problem here too. Go into launcher, login, and press play. Cryptic logo comes up, goes fine. Once that Neverwinter Logo pops up, it freezes on me and says "not responding". Which really sucks cause I so wanna get on and play :( I've tried safe mode, running it as administrative, turning my Avast! off then…
I'm having the same problem with Avast :( it was PERFECTLY fine last night, so I don't know why it's doing this ;_; and it keeps taking my NWN2 launcher shortcut out but that's not in the virus chest O.o'
My only wish is that it supported the video card AMD Radeon HD 7470 Series XD because it doesn't, makes me lag and it saddens me :( I LOVE this game so far!
