    Make sure to post hardware specs when encountering technical issues like this too.

    Most likely an issue with the new 64-bit client that was made the default with yesterday's update.
    Workaround would be to revert to the 32-bit client:

    I too, am having this issue.

    Before now, my PC ran the game excellently if I keep the graphics low, and it is a 64bit PC.

    It still runs quite well, outside of crashing. The crashes (for me), seem to revolve around loading new areas, as that is the only time it happens.

    Same here, I crash about once every few months. Now it's happened maybe 4 times a day since.
    When you see "TRIBBLE" in my posts, it's because I manually typed "TRIBBLE" and censored myself.

    I just looked and it's not on mine either. The linked image shows (under game) Full Screen, Safe Mode, and Use 32-bit Client. My launcher, in that same section shows only Safe Mode. Nowhere in the options is there a check box for either full screen or use 32-bit client.

    Which is strange as the Launcher version shown at the bottom is exactly the same.
    LTS and loving it.

    Never mind, I found it.

    I noticed that in the linked image it was showing "Ready" and "Engage". So, I logged in. After logging in, once my "Ready" and "Engage" buttons were lit, I went back to options and voila, the Full Screen and Use 32-bit Client are now there.
    LTS and loving it.

    I am trying to remember what I was doing last night when I had another one of these bizarre crashes that does not generate an error report....

    Oh well...I can not remember...I should have written it down.

    Either way, I thought it was dumb continuing to let my program do this, so I switched it to 32-bit when I signed back on that time.
