I've been playin this game now few days. I have lvl 11 marksman and i'm starting to get in to this game. Only 1 problem. Game keeps crashing a lot..i know thats not new information but what really is my problem it also crashes my computer..many times a day :/
And as you can imagine pushing reset many times a day is no good for you computer. Or atleast no good for your filesystem.
Does anyone else have similar problems with Ubuntu 7.04 / ati radeon 9550 / sempron 2300+?
I'd love to solve this problem 'cause i'm really starting to like this game.

Edit: "crashes my computer" means usually that i still can hear sound but screen is in freeze. Sometimes screen goes black and no sound. In any case, only pushing reset/unplugin powercable helps.

I don't run ubuntu, but I do run linux. Arch linux, I have no freezing issues, but yes game des crash for me everyone once in awhile. I don't mind though, doesn't bother me too much.

Ye..game crashing is not that bad but rebooting computer many times in a day is

what about hitting ctrl-alt-f1 to jump out of X into a console, then you can kill the game and jump back to X (alt-f7)

Have tried that and ctrl-alt-backspace (should restart X). No Success.
Maybe next time i'll try to take ssh connection from my another computer to this one..but i think its not just X that crashes but my whole computer. Anyway have to try after next freeze/crash.

How do you launch the client ?
i'm on Ubuntu, and i launch it only in Terminal, that way when it crashes or freeze i can (fast) always just shut the terminal and open a new one to get it run again..
i also don't use it fullscreen, but windowed the same size as fullscreen : this way i have the whole screen used but can still acces everything on the Desktop and any command needed.

This way i had only one computer-crash so far, even if i get loads of client-crashes... well, it's a beta for now
