I have no idea what else to call it. But if there are missiles anywhere near me my screen goes all yellow and crazy. I know the fix was supposed to be drivers but I updated them and still got it.

I7 3.4ghz
Gtx 680
16 gab ram
1tb hard drive.

I have read the thread but didn't help - any ideas?

I don't think there's a fix yet if drivers don't work. My brothers' laptop with a 690m and similar specs does it in at least 1/3 of matches... alt+tab fixes it temporarily but on occasion it will do it 5+ times in one match. I think only nvidia gpu's are affected now, and it's mostly laptops with the problem. Lower settings MIGHT do something..

"The way it's meant to be played." lol

That's completely unacceptable. It's impossible to play while having psychadelic interludes interspersed with closing the game mid-flow and re-entering and then having to do it over and over again. This is a game breaking bug and needs to be fixed immediately and not left to some horrendous work around.

I barely play the game anymore because of this issue. The only thing that I've found that ameliorates this issue is making sure your computer screen resolution matches your in game resolution setting. But this is not a complete fix and while I was able to manage 5 games in a row without the bug, rather than getting it practically every match, others have done the same and the issue re-occurs.

ALT+ENTER will fix it temporarily but it's not a permanent fix. I updated my Nvidia drivers for the 570m to the latest and haven't gotten it since. Update your drivers and see if the problem reoccurs. Mine had been from February of last year.

I wish I'd screen capped it. It was by far the worst graphical bug ever in MWO, many times worse than gold vision because you could at least turn your HUD off or make out shapes through the fog. On top of this, the polygon bug always happened right when you engaged the enemy in most instances.
