bobstefanio 24 Posted August 25, 2012 That sir is a graphical bug caused by some items in the game most recently dead soilders some tank traps and barbed wire fences.You have few options to resolve it in game.You can try changing your video memory to high and then down to default. This resolves it until the game has to redraw those graphics again such as when you go out of range and come back to the place where you saw it before.You can hit escape and hold shift then tap the - key on the numpad and type flush this will cause your screen to go black and give you the message receiving you may need to do this 2 or 3 times to fully flush the graphic memory and resolve the issue.You can restart the game exit it fully right out to windows.Finally some people say disabling threaded optimization in your graphics cards main control panel will resolve the issue.Hopfully one of theses will suit you and hopfully the issue will be resolve in future patches. :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
