    first,let me say that am i a total idiot when it comes to computer gaming.i have zero idea as to what in the fuck im doing. now that ive said that,ive been trying to play it since it went free to play and it seems im having some issues. the game seems to play fine,even on the higher settings. yet for some reason there are either black bars or colored bars constantly blocking the screen. somtimes if i move the camera around they go away but usually come back.ive tried messing with the graphic settings,even putting them as low as they will go and aside from it looking uglier,the problem remains.

    other than that ive enjoyed what ive played so far but this is an issue that is seriously making it allmost impossible to play. any help would be great.thanks guys!

    If this isn't happening in other games (which would be an indicator of corrupt graphics drivers or a bad video card)

    It could be a corrupt install of TOR and/or something wonky with your current video criver.
