Technical Support / Re: Can't get past the start screen [Windows 8]
« on: January 30, 2014, 12:06:15 AM »
I'm in a similar situation. This game used to run fine when I bought it near the launch, but now I'm getting blocky graphics and other glitches as well as a horrible framerate. I checked the troubleshooting FAQ and tried everything, but I am using an old GPU, and I'm not sure how to turn on hardware acceleration under Windows 8.1 (or if it would actually solve the problem). I get the feeling that switching to the onboard Intel Graphics might solve this problem, but I'd hope for a better solution.
