About 3rd match since client start, everything is set up, in trail mech, hit launch button, hit game, screen is 100% pitch black, can hear humming noise. Start hearing mech footsteps, I can fire my own guns. This has happened before quite a bit. Alt+tab trying to get anything back, enter game window and I can see. But everything I see is a solid rectangle. Every number, icon, picture, is a solid rectangle of the proper color. I see lots of ghost images of long gone LRMs and shadows of buildings.

Just so happens I got the super low FPS bug at the same time.

If this happens to you, stand on your own base cap zone. I did help my team by calling incoming mech and keeping him from getting any cap points, and getting target lock on him for teammates to fire at.

Eh? Someone changed the topic title? That's not the problem at all.

It's not caused by alt-tab. Alt-tab simply makes the black go away. You can see flickers of the bad screen if you turn your mech to face away from the enemy base. It starts flickering in and out of view. Alt-tab just gets the black to go away and you can see the borked screen all the time.

So it's screwed to begin with and has nothing to do with alt-tab. It just has an extra screwed thing piled on top of it.
