I made a post around release with an issue that I cannot seem to find many(if any) others having. In the opening mission when approaching a corner(not all), looking through a keyhole(always) and moving through an door into a new scene or opening a door(almost always) an thus rendering a new scene I get get the same type of visual issue. This does occur past the first mission but is prevalent there regarding the area leading into the catwalk and the door on the that second level . Solid Blue if it is approaching a corner it will be along the edge of the corner or if it is rendering a fresh scene it is block-like. I have lowerered all in game settings, no overclocks total default setup across the board including my OS(aero included), only ati display drivers with no CCC and with as well as with as well as with and without CAPS(all versions and combos between 11.12 and 13.4) using the ati uinistaller utility for swaps. I have also ran every type of diagnostic, benchmark and monitoring tool to figure out what the issue is to no avail. Even tried the game on a different monitor as well as disabled and enabled overdrive on each monitor. I have a list of about 20 current titles(released in the past 2 years) and none of them have issues anywhere remotely like this. The game is un-enjoyable and thus unplayable and I have been very patient hoping a driver update or a patch would remedy it. I will say the game is smoother now than on release in regards to the general stutter that tons of users across the board had experienced.

Still I shelled out 59.99 on this game pre order on Steam and have waited patiently to enjoy the immersion that I expect when I buy a stealth game. It isn't about max graphics......I have a more than capable system but would be totally happy playing with xbox 360 quality graphics without the issues and that isn't even possible which leads me to conclude it is a game issue as any issues reported with dishonored on the new 7xxx series cards were fixed in the latest driver release.

Anyone with any suggestions whatsoever are totally welcome as I really want to play the game and don't own(nor plan on ever owning) a console.


PS: The back wall of the boathouse in the opening area vanishes from max view distance on stairs near princess and this issue has been duplicated by numerous Overclock.net users running all different types of configs including both Nvidia and AMD GPU's and AMD and Intel CPU's. Step it up! Bethesda: You won numerous awards for this game please support the PC players who purchased it. Also Texture Streaming is my guess which is a bad thing and you need to stop using it.

Also it isn't overclocks so don't try that everyone has experienced the issue above running default clock speeds on both GPU and CPU's as well as systems that have never been overclocked even once.
