Myself and a party of three others made it to the beach post ship cutscene in Patch 6 and then the screen went to black! This replicated 3 times until we finally gave up playing

I saw the character for like 5-10 seconds, then it cut to black screen as the others were still loading. We heard sounds and the character would move around on mouse clicks, but it seems as if the screen display just went to black. It made it nonplayable for all of us.

This happened with all four of us 3 times. We tried auto saving with F5 and then loading but it didn't work.

I hope this is patched real quick as I am sure this is not just us with how we could replicate it.

You're lucky you got off the Nautiloid in Hell before that happened. I am getting the game-breaker black screen halfway through the dash to the Transponder so cannot even get into the main game. Tried many reloads, restarts, noting where the transponder is so I can blind-click on it from inside the blackness. Nothing. If I <space> the turns go past normally, but just the blackness.

I am guessing that there's a major, random bug that's not flushing memory/screen/something when there is a cut-screen and it's not putting the game back on screen properly. I suspect Larian rushed out the 'update', but with the knowledge that there were still bugs, etc.

Oh well, the game is still Early-Access so we have to accept it no matter the irritation.

Will spectate till the next update/patch/hotfix. (I wonder how many others are getting the "screen of blackness"?)
