Rage Ghosts causing locking up

So when I'm at Raven's Cove and the rage ghosts are running around knocking people out, it tends to lock up the game. I still hear sound and all of that but it will freeze up for 10-20 seconds and then usually fix itself, although lately it's been me having to control+alt+delete to close the game. Anyone else had this happening to them?

I noticed it first when there were only 2 people fighting the rage ghost (me AFK to the side as I was on the phone) and I wondered if maybe it was something involving a glitch as it was only freezing/locking up when the male was knocked out, not the female. But since it's happening more often now, I've wondered if it's just on Disney's side.

(I might add that I've got updated everything...drivers and the like...)

The same thing is happening to me with the Rage Ghosts
I found that it will usually happen when I am using my blunderbuss, but not always
The stinky part is, since you are frozen you can't even type out - HEY I'm stuck!!
All you can do is wait for everything to catch up
& hope you don't defrost looking at a KO timer on your screen

I have the same problem. It doesn't happen every time I fight a Rage Ghost, but it does on occasion. I really have no idea what causes it, but it must be something about the coding in the Rage Ghosts or something because it only happens around them. Probably has to do with Rage Ghosts being quite complicated enemies, which causes uber lag, AKA lock ups.

Talking Me too

Yeah, happens to me 90% of the time. I find it's usually when I'm using Bitter End, and my buddy is using a blunderbuss. It's Disney, don't worry.

Imagine that...problems on their end. I have a sneaky suspicion that if I went on live chat and asked about this, they would tell me it's my wireless internet that's causing it.

Going off subject, I once got a Rage Ghost angry at me, and I then ran into the water. The Rage Ghost followed me into the water and I DIED. It didn't KO me like usual, I just fell over to the side like pirates did before the KO system.... VERY weird.... o_o
