From the windows event log:

NONE of my other games have any problems, and this one has CONSTANT problems. I love this game, but this is effing ridiculous.

Bumpga IV. Fix this crap!

For me, the game has been getting progressively worse. At first I didn't experience any problems, then every maintenance something new pops up.

Now I'm getting the occasional lag spike, that stupid negative queue when logging in, and also every once in a great while the game will crash when about to engage a crowded FATE (even with all effects turned off)

I'm having a similar issue, and have been sense about 3 days after official launch when I got the game. I can play perfectly fine on custom settings based off the High Desktop settings, without any lag or latency issues. However randomly, with no common event or place so far as I can tell, the game will crash.
Could be 5 mins after logging on, or 5 hrs. No error or anything, just a FFXIV has stopped working and windows is shutting down the program. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it, and I've not had this issue running WoW when I played that. It does, much less often then FFXIV, happen on a rare occasion when playing a game in my Steam library. Any tips or advice, or fixes if someone else has found one, would be GREATLY appreciated!!!

I usually play in full screen, but have crashed with both min and max graph. settings, in windowed and full.

Same here about Fate grinding, so I'm not the only one. I've openned a new thread hoping to have some answers...

[RoxasVentus]

I had the same crashing problem every 10mins. I thought it was a software issue that is why I tried to reinstall the game. Now I can't even patch it back up and keeps saying I lost connection with the server. One problem after another. Sigh.

My system is exactly like yours except I only have 4GB of RAM. I've pretty much stopped playing for the last couple of weeks because the crashes got so bad. It crashes with both the 331.65 and 320.49 nvidia drivers.

[Miachu]

Yeah..one of the many constantly crashing here..

This is not something that can really go on for like, forever. If it doesn't work I just have to stop playing. :x

[Kennitus]

I recommend you to wait until SE do something... they'll surely do.
