So, these glitches have started recently, but rapidly, popping up. I'll make a list..
- Many images, such as mission cards, loading screen backgrounds, and weapon/item icons, appear totally white or black randomly
- Game can become very laggy while in the in-game Steam community
- Level backgrounds can become messed up occasionally, one time I was in a devilite city and the background was completely white, and one time I was on jigsaw valley and the background was misty as if I had turned the render distance down, plus all the particle decals were white like in the first bug.
- In trading, if Crowns or CE is selected, the typing cursor rapidly switches between the two which can make offering either crowns or CE in a trade very difficult
- A general increase in game lag
Probably more I can't remember. All this is seriously starting to make me think my PC has been hacked and the hacker is subtly messing with me...
Various Graphical/Game Glitches

read the first comment by Helios
And read the last comment. It doesn't work. Clearly there is something going on with the steam client as a lot of use are having similar problems. I can launch the game from a browser & can go as far as the log in screen but because of the loggin mess (Steam Vrs Forums ) I cannot go further yet when I try & play through steam, I cannot even get to the log in screen. Also from the browser launch the game does not crash while using steam, yep you guessed it. We'll have to wait until tomorrow for a response as I highly doubt they work on a Sunday.
I encountered another bug, all of the game models were inside-out and paradox-ish as if they were shot by the transformation ray gear on ROBLOX, if anybody gets that reference.
Graphics issues can also be caused by out of date video drivers when it isn't corrupt game files. Update yours. After that, change the graphics settings to low when you run into these graphical errors. It could be that certain settings are not able to be displayed by your graphics card, such as higher AA effects. If your problem still persists, I guess we'll have to wait for Helios or another GM to give some tips.
Thank you for your help, Extribble. To be honest, you're really the only person that's given me serious tips so far.
Can you post a link to a screenshot of what you are seeing? Normally, as Extribble said, sudden an unusual graphics changes that occur during gameplay can usually be attributed to problems with the graphics drivers or hardware, but that does not mean other causes don't exist. If you could please submit a bug report when the described problems happen by pressing F2 or using the /bug command in chat I can check to see if there is anything unusual happening.
Yes, will do. I believe that these problems only occur when playing on High graphics settings, as one user said. Thank you for your assistance.
Unfortunately, I will not be able to do what you have requested at the moment. A new problem has arisen, which I have also made a post about.
Actually, I was wrong. They happen on all levels of graphic settings. This is quite unfortunate, as I can't really take a screenshot because all of these graphical errors cause any screenshots taken to turn up black...
Additionally, when I tried to take a screenshot of the scenario in which the background was all white in the devilite level, my game would randomly freeze up. When I attempted to take a screenshot of the matter, the screenshot would always turn out 100% black. This only happened during that time, I could take screenshots afterwards.
