Could this be the update that finally fixes the PC issues?




I opened up ME:C and found out theres an update just now. Hopefully it will fix some bugs us PC players been having.

Leeching, ty for the head's up.

(And there I was, trying to put the game down for the rest of the day )

Cutscenes appears to be fixed. I don't see stuttering on GTX 970 with Hyper textures, but still it isn't smooth despite having 50-70 fps.
Can't Alt-Tab out of game with windowed and borderless window modes. The window is now always on top... One bug less, one more...

Still they didn't fix most important problem - lack of community support.

Everything was fine for me before this update; smooth on a GTX 1080 with 1.5x Supersampling at 1080p, except for the cutscenes behaving very badly.
Now my screen turns black 3 times when loading the level (like after falling). Also, checking/unchecking options in the Gameplay menu like "Enemy Position Reticule" causes the screen to go black for a second as well. Very weird and annoying.
After all that the cutscenes are still messed up. <sarcasm>I think congratulations are in order.</sarcasm>

I just get this:

it didn't happen before the patch, that's for sure!

The black flickers seem to definitely be a part of the update. Going into window or borderless window mode fixes this, but I find it to decrease my frames a few.
Also, the game minimized every 10 seconds after a while.

delete the file that has your settings and start the game - it works.
