    @Konform103 Indeed a problem during update .. Click on Repair in the Origin game Library.. For me it was a 13gb repair and the black shadow/textures went away

    For people who have limited monthly bandwith this 30+gb update/repair is too much.. As respawn stated hopefully the coming updates will be smaller in size

@Zeelmaekers Hey thanks for your post, It's appreciated 🙂

I've just verified game files and It's given me a 2 and a half hour download (Boooo!). Will update after and see if the issue is fixed.

I think we can completely rule out any form of Driver related issue though, given that there are multiple people with different brands and models of GPU's reporting similar issues.

Had the same issue, using a 1660Ti.  Never had any issues before this update.

    I have this as well. The temp workaround seems to be going into your video settings and setting the Texture Streaming Budget to "none". This solves it for me.

    The game might not look its best at that point, but it beats playing in a black hole.

    I don't have the black textures bug but I see low res textures of some parts of skins when on main screen and legend selection screen. I can fix the main screen textures glitch by either opening the legends menu or by turning on the supersampling option in settings.

    Running Windows 10 with GTX 1070. Just updated my gfx drivers to the latest version as well but nothing.

    Weird stuff.

      Same issues here.

      Using AMD RX480 and the latest drivers. Everything clouded in darkness! ☹️

      Repairing game files + downloading an update fixed this.
