Black Screen After Joining Game

Product: Battlefield 1
Platform:Microsoft XBOX One
Summarize your bug After loading into a game, screen turns black. Unable to see terrain, buildings, weapons, or people, but menus, spawning positions, minimap, crosshair, player icons, and objective icons are viewable.
How often does the bug occur? Rarely (0% - 9%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Quickmatch conquest (unsure about other game modes) from the main menu, after loading in, it may occur. Only has happened twice to me since last update, never before.
What happens when the bug occurs? After loading into a new match, the screen goes pitch black. I'm able to see objectives, spawn points, and classes from the spawn map, with a white/yellow static like flash just before I spawn in. After spawning, I'm unable to see the ground, any buildings, my weapons, or other players as the screen remains black. However, my minimap, crosshair, player icons (green/blue/red class dot above players), and objective icons (A, B, C, D...) still show. When killed, the follow cam occurs, but the screen still remains black, with the enemy shown as a red outline. All player controls, such as moving, shooting, etc. work normally.
Please select your region North America
In what game mode did the bug occur? Conquest
AMD or Nvidia Model Number ...
Enter RAM memory size in GB ...

Unfortunately, my only recording of this bug is a clip recorded on my Xbox One, and I'm unsure if it's possible to attach it to this post.

    Well, that sucks. I haven't gotten the black screen since I posted this, but when I did, it fixed when I quit the game to the main menu, then search for another match.

    FIGURE IT OUT EA! This happens to me 75% of the time I try to join my friends game. This whole game is glitchy and garbage. Consistent minor annoying glitches. Figure it out.

    Hey, the game may have some annoying bugs, and I'm sorry this is happening often to you, but it's pretty far from garbage. I'd say it's the best FPS of this year.
  • I posted here (Ingame graphics disappear) a similar issue, but on PC. Now I realise that it also happens sometimes when I join a game: fullscreen goes windowed, world goes black and I have to re-apply fullscreen video setting to make the world appear again.

    I uploaded there screenshots, do they look similar?

  • black screen on PC also  sometimes when I try to join a multiplayer game after the fall update. once it starts doing this, quitting and restarting several times hoping it will fix this. it takes a while until I manage to get in again. I am having this problem now and couldn't get into multiplayer after 4 time quitting and restarting the game ... Argh !!!!!

    Dice, please fix this !!!!!!

  • when i start the game and game going to open fullscreen its freezing to black screen. However music still plays but screen all black, i only can see mouse icon. have to minimize and get back to fullscreen again everytime i do this when i start the game.

    I have had this happen about 1 in every 4-5 times loading a conquest game only on the original maps though I have never seen it with the "They shall not pass" maps
