A few times crashing in 1-2 hours  for almost every player i know on my server, seems to be a normal thing meanwhile.  its funny that some of them think its their computer and an upgrade would solve it.  i just asked around and 8 out of 10 players have the crashes.

 

Since patch 1.2. and all the hotfixes after, it just got worse with every patch.....

 

usually the crashes happen when NPC conversations start or end. On corellia its worst.  

 

No word about all that from BioWare.......

I had this problem the day after 1.2 came out on Vrook Lamar, but haven't ran into it since. Could be a server problem.

NGE killed SWG. Get over it like the rest of us did in 2005.

I've had one crash to desktop since beta so it's not a problem I'm seeing.  I did just update my system last month.  Sorry you seem to be having so much trouble with the game.   I play on the Juyo server so it may be server related.

In my case this crashes are happening because I'm forcing AA in my video card and high resolution textures. I did solved that problem just using the game normal settings.

At the end I came back to my previous configuration, I prefer to crash to desktop each 2-3 hours and play the game at the higher settings.

Then why are you on the SWTOR forums again?  Oh right....to be a troll.

Seems to be pretty planet specific atleast for me I can't go 10 minutes without crashing on alderaan. Then again I think this is just a way for Bioware to delay fixing things until after the free month they handed out. Once a majority of people are actually paying to play I expect this to be fixed.

The official Forum is filled with CRASH TO DESKTOP topics meanwhile.  i was just one of the 1st players that posted about this crappy problem. 

Players are crashing everywhere, NPC cut scenes , MAP loading etc etc

 

I quit for now, maybe i return with 1.3 if it has enough stuff to offer....

I had the same problem until I realized it was happening to other games as well and it was in fact a hardware issue.

RIFT, EQ2, Vanguard, City of Heroes, Hellgate, AOC, Skyrim etc etc etc they all run on my PC for hours, no crash.  

SWTOR does crash...

Haven't had that complaint in awhile myself. A few inculding myself  had it right after 1.2 was implemented, but only for one day. Considering how many times I crashed to desktop in STO and SWG, this has been nothing.

NGE killed SWG. Get over it like the rest of us did in 2005.

I, for one, have only had one crash to desktop, and that was because my computer downloeaded an iTunes update in the background. Mabye it's you guys' computers and not BioWares fault?
