Crashing Bug Warning
Not sure if its been noted, but there seems to be a strange bug rippin' through this current build, has taken quite a few out from the look of the reports forum. Even my genetically disturbed dwarf (from all those free race changes!) has taken one for the team. The Northern Barrens and some Outlands areas are the major culprits atm. Basically a forced crash after the client spams you with some windows, citing "access out of bounds". Often locks the players out of the char entirely. Just a heads up, for my fellow pet finders / explorers / general muck-runners on the beta.
Re: Crashing Bug Warning
Northrend was doing the same to me. I haven't been locked out yet, but crashing once a minute makes it hard to fly across Howling Fjord.

Re: Crashing Bug Warning
I've been crashing a lot in Beta. Just randomly. Sometimes when I take a Zeppelin, sometimes when I tab out quickly. But it happens a few times a day at least.
Re: Crashing Bug Warning
And ... I take back my statement. My primary Mania copy is now a ghost in Dun Morogh and locked out of the beta. The other characters still work, though. (I think I have 4 copies of Mania on Lost Isles now.)

Re: Crashing Bug Warning
Does crashing in WG count? I was flying over WG and suddenly was dismounted even though there was still an hour and 30 minutes before the next battle and got DCed after I died

Re: Crashing Bug Warning
I crash all the time, and I'm not even in beta. If i even blink, I d/c. it's only been happening since the patch.

Re: Crashing Bug Warning
Can confirm that the WG dismounting bug is back on live, though I haven't been d/ced from the game because of it - possibly because Kalliope's an engineer and avoided death.

Re: Crashing Bug Warning
Everything counts! But I think we were talking about a very specific crash that's taking a lot of people out in the beta right now. Last I heard, there's no fix and no work-around yet. And while some areas do seem to be worse than others (Howling Fjord, I am looking at you!) I've been getting it in almost every zone, usually a couple times an hour.

Re: Crashing Bug Warning
I wonder if it's some particular visual effect that's triggering the crashes. A zone like Howling Fjord definitely has a super-amazing fire burning at all times, for example. Otherwise, you'd think a zone untouched by Cataclysm would be safe.

Re: Crashing Bug Warning
I did try turning all my settings down to minimum manually but it didn't seem to have much effect. *shrug* It could be anything in there, though - maybe some setting I always have on minimum is rendering something in a way my card can't handle this build. I know what the out-of-bound error means in a programming sense, but I have no clue about graphics at all.
I just hope the next patch has a fix. Until now I haven't had that much trouble.
(I was about to post 'And the next patch should only be a day or two off since today is Wednesday.' And then I checked and realized that it's Saturday. *sigh* I don't even know what month it is anymore.)

*comforts Mania* And we're changing months in a few days too, which won't help that feeling any.

Re: Crashing Bug Warning
I'm systematically sacrificing hunter clones to the crashing bug now, seems to be in quite a few zones. I even tried fully reinstalling, after the settings idea didn't work out for me. Sort of like a really delicious pastry behind thick glass now. I'll let you know if I discover a method around it! Nagrand being so vicious with it really surprised me, mind you.

Re: Crashing Bug Warning
Nagrand makes sense, actually. They might have done something funky to remove the Thrall quests.
