It's even worse now. I love this game so much that I reinstalled windows as a Hail Mary. The first tech didn't even read my ticket. I got a form letter response telling me to do some of the things that I already did... in the ticket. My ticket it wasn't even read. Then the next tech tried to put the onus of this onto me. It worried previously and my machine can handle AAA games with no troubles at all. This is very disconcerting. The the amount of people now having my same exact problem has increased, going by all the other posts in the forums where people are having the same problem as me. Sure regret patching the game now. If I could roll it back I would do so in a heart beat. The cherry on top? The tech guy never even replied to my last response. No one did.
