As the post is titled I can log in, patch, then when I click engage it goes fullscreen (just black) then resizes to a window (just black) and then it does nothing. I open task manager and it shows it to be non-responsive. I have tried running as admin, changing my desktop resolution (default is 1828 * 1026), running in xp sp3 compatibility, Reinstalling the entire game (at least the game does install fast after the hours spent downloading)
my system spec is as follows

It said it was sent and it took a LONG time to send it have you any advice please? I preordered the CE for 80$ and am gonna be really upset if i am unable to get this game to even launch.
I am having the exact same issue. I have not been able to log in even once. I have no idea how the game is. All I know is that when I get to the Cryptic logo with the loading bar it loads about 10% before it stops responding. I have to end the process where it says gameclient.exe has stopped responding. Anyone know what's going on?
Okay, here I have a "TEMPORARY" solution but need more information to form a better, more perminate solution. When you log in, in the upper left corner (BEFORE YOU CLICK ENGAGE) there is an options button. (THIS Options button is placed in a ludacris place as it is hard to see and is placed far from the point where your eyes focus, this needs changed. Anyway, back to the point, if you click options then put the game in safe mode it will play, although it will appear as though it freezes on the loading screen but just let it be a second and it resumes the load. THE ANSWERS I NEED is EXACTLY what does putting the game in it's "safe mode" change about how the game is executed, in what (unconventional) cfg file is this change made? with this information I could change this 1 setting at a time to find out EXACTLY where the problem lies and help to make the actuall game launch more sucessful. I understand that this is a beta but A: It is very close to launch B: Although I understand that it is a beta and the point is the prepare the game for launch many other people fail to see it as more than just being able to play the game early. I would hate for word of mouth to cause a decline in the number of players at launch as I have seen this make other mmorpg's fail. Thanks for the reply ahead of time I just would like to help. And please make the options button stand out more.... perhapse move it closer to the engage button as that is the main point of focus for people EAGER to play.
