    Flashing shapes

    I'm having flashing shapes (triangles, rectangles etc.) all over the screen and can't see anything. The cutscene was fine, it appeared when the gameplay started.

    Hey again sz.a!

    Thanks for getting in touch and sorry to hear you're having another issue with the game.

    Just to double-check - is this something that doesn't happen right away however after a while starts occurring and will gradually get worse?

    If so, this very much sounds like overheating issue, as I do recall having the exact same problem with a notebook, where due to high CPU usage, fans were essentially not good enough to keep CPU in low temperature and caused it to overheat, which then brought these flashing shapes to the screen, therefore can I ask you to check your CPU usage and if you do notice that issue is exactly as explained and if you do happen to use a notebook, this will most likely be the cause of the issue.

    Let us know!

    Hello there

    I have to apologize, I totally forgot about this post. I tried to delete this thread but couldn't find any way to do it.
    I had corrupted graphics drivers and that was the problem for these flashing things on the screen. Uninstalling and reinstalling the amd drivers did the magic and there is no issue anymore.
