I bought the game just yesterday or day before yesterday (12/5 or 12/6) and had no black screen issue and played nearly all day. Encountered apsolutly no noticable bugs even.

After the recent patch that downloaded from Steam on 12/7/2010, I load my game with a black screen. Only the compass, and experince bar show. In other words, just the HUD. I can move and hear and control the game. I just have a black screen making nothing visible.

The update said it was suppose to fix this. Instead it caused it. Please help.

I use NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470 graphics card.
