Is anyone else having this problem? Apart for being mildly funny, it seems to happen when the game runs for more than an hour or so.

Middle-earth: Blood Dragon

The only issue I've had is the framerate dropping inexplicably from time to time.

Now you got me picturing some impossible far off future where Mordor has become the neon wonderland on par with Las Vegas. The Orks and Uruks can be the organized crime. Haha.

I wish that was part of the game. Like some crazy AC animus breakdown. Which makes me that much more anxious to check out Unity.

Have you tried checking GPU temps while it's happening?

@ajamafalous: Its all normal.. There is not even a drop in the frame rate ! just the lighting goes bananas :)

I also get it, nothing wrong with my card, a lot of people have mentioned it. Someone stated that lowering their texture resolution fixed it. Hopefully it will be patched.

Jesus Christ man, I'd play the shit outta that.

It happened to me, I've been having a few issues with the game on PC. It's been working perfectly for ages but the past two days it's been constantly locking up after a few minutes. So irritating.

Reminds me of the glitch that GB had when they were doing a Quick Look of Tomb Raider. It's probably an issue with certain GPU models, kinda sucks especially if it keeps happening so hopefully there'll be a fix for it. Haven't encountered it myself *knock on wood* yet.

It's actually one of your wraith abilities that allows you to look into the alternate future where Sauron emerges victorious.

That looks pretty f'ing cool.

@dimi3je: are you by any chance using the built in vsync option?

because if you are that is most probably the reason for the inexplicable frame drops.

was happening to me too, constant 60 then out of nowhere it would drop to 30 for a few seconds, turned that off, forced adaptive vsync through nvidia control panel and now is smooth as hell

as for the neon thing it never happened to me, thats really strange.

That looks like a graphics card issue. Are drivers up to date? Update them if you haven't. Check the temps too.

Gotta be something with your video card, or maybe your driver version? Once I walked away for lunch and got caught up with some things and the game ended up running like 6-7 hours non stop that day and I never had a single glitch. Not even a little frame loss. I did run into a bug once during a recruitment mission where I inadvertently killed some orcs my branded captain needed to make a speech at before he got there, it resulted in a lock up and all he did was stand there and growl until I shut everything down.

That is most definitely a graphics card issue. Do the old driver update shenanigans. And dont use geforce experience to optimize settings, because it doesn't. I used it once and now my settings keep reverting to it and ducking up the game.

I dont think your gfx card os damaged, it is probably just a random issue with drivers. If it persists, it may be an actual problem with the card... try some other games and see what happens? Which graphics card do you have?

@onarum I tried to find the force adaptive vsync option in nvidia control panel but could not figure it out, how do you do that? My main issue with the built in vsync is that it switches itself off between loads :/

@splodge: Updated to the 344.11 before i started playing the game. I have a 550 ti. Dont have this problem with any other games though.

@s80007 hmm with a 550ti I would maybe just lower my settings. I have a 770 and I play with most things on high and textures on medium. Is it a recurring problem?

I've had that happen a few times on my GTX 570. It usually fixes itself if I quit out to the main menu and load back into the game. On the times when that doesn't work, restarting the program (or just shutting it off and playing it later) seems to work.

@splodge: you just go to "manage 3d settings" then chose shadow of mordor on the program list, it's one of the last options, it's called just "vertical sync" then you turn it to "adaptive".

Battle for Middle Earth: WATCH_DOGS

If this is what the game was like normally, I'd be incredibly interested.

@onarum cheers dude ill give it a shot!

I had this happen to me once, much to my fiancee's amusement.It only seemed to apply to structures within a stronghold.

@onarum: I am. I'll give your recomendation a try. Thanks duder!
