    This happens to me every time I update my Radeon drivers. Lasts about a week or so then seems to go away. The bots at tech support are no help at all with this issue.

    Okay, after looking over the AMD fixes I didn't see my card listed, so, I said F-it and ran system restore. Back in the game. Now to see if it stays stable.

    If they can't get this fixed, this game would easily be the one dropped rather than the new patch to amd. I'm tired of Cryptic breaking things and never fixing them. Just look at the mess Champions is. Hopefully they fix it BEFORE the winter event, but it seems a bit ridiculous that some issues are still in game a year later, if not longer for some major issues.

    As far as i'm concerned, this is up to Cryptic to fix, since they're the ones usually not optimizing, or just plain breaking things. AMD can take as long as they need though, if it's something on their end, simply because I know they at least seem to care about the players and fans enough to actually do something about fixing things.

    The sad thing is that even if Champions Online is a mess I can still log into the game without any problem. Crimson works fine with it. STO is the only game with a problem.

    Why hasn't a dev weighed in on this yet? I really don't want to roll back my drivers for one game, but I still cant play and it's been months.

    Try typing -d3d9 in the sto launcher options this worked for me

    -d3d9 didn´t work for me, also try to use safe mode, verify files, etc. seems that this problem is related directly to an incompatibility with new AMD drivers and STO.
