    [BUG REPORT] Blinking red lights glitch (Far Cry 5 PC)

    I'm stuck with these blinking lights on my screen. They look like radio tower lights that blink in the distance but it seems as if they are stuck permanently on my screen.. I have no idea how to fix this and it's VERY annoying. It never goes away

    Thanks for the videos.

    This issue persists even after restarting your game?

    Apparently this bug has to do with overclocking the graphics card. I was reading on the forums for other people having the same problem and one person said that changing his OC profile fixed this for him. I had a custom OC profile too and when I changed to a standard OC profile, not my own, the blinking red lights was gone! I was using Asus Gpu Tweak II.

    I'm just not going to use the OC program anymore.

    I had the same blinking red lights.

    i5-8600k
    Gigabyte Z370 HD3P
    16Gb DDR4-3200
    Gigabyte GTX 1070 Xtreme Gaming Edition
    Running 2560x1440p on Ultra.

    Overclock: Nothing but the card running its OC Program, and it has three modes: OC Mode, Gaming Mode, and ECO Mode. (CPU, Ram not overclocked - it don't need it, really)

    When I installed the game, I had the red flashing dots as well. The card was running in its normal OC Mode.

    I quit the game, changed to Gaming Mode, reloaded, and no red dots!

    Now here is the funny part:

    I quit the game, went Back to OC Mode, reloaded the game aaaaaand......... no red dots.


    Anyway, hope the info helps.

    It might be a nvidia or OC 1070 thing. I have the same issue with my founders edition gtx1070. Once i take off the oc there are no longer flashing red lights.

    No DLC glitch

    I have a weird bug that whenever i fast travel for some reason my game just deactivates all of my dlc weapons, vehicles and etc. this is easily fixed by just simply restarting the game but it is extremely inconvenient because i actually tend to use them i.e i really like the look of the carbon fiber AR-C. if someone could look into this for your next update that would be great.
