Black screen after falling off the map.
Anyone else having black screen with audio when you fall off the map especially on the underwater area? If i fall again the screen comes back but kind of annoying losing adrenaline.

It happens to me everytime I fall now. Closing the software doesn't lose the progression, at least there's that

Happened to me about 1 time per Act.. Alt-F4 like previous poster said.

Really seems like if you don't take damage the blackscreen doesnt' fade. If you keep falling until your various shields fade and take damage it goes away sucks to lose all your shields and adrenaline but it stops you from Alt F4 (assuming you can find the pit)

Same here. :steamsad:

Seems to happen quite a bit in Abyssal Scar, after falling into the abyss. Thankfully progress isn't lost doing Alt+F4.

well, this is happening to me too. May likely have something to do with having a shield. Can we get the devs' attention on this?

They are aware. I already opened a ticket and i think i'm not alone here.

Dude KillScreen. I am not falling off the map. Maybe you should verify your game integrity?

Confirming this is still an issue

Confirming again that it is easily repeatable and still an issue in game. To see this bug for yourself --
1. Obtain a shield with any item in game that grants one
2. Fall off the map
3. Screen will go black

TEMPORARY FIX -- I found if you manage to lose your adrenaline level (i.e. by falling off the map until you take damage and adrenaline resets to 0), the black screen will go away and you can continue playing as normal.

It sucks to lose your shields AND your adrenaline levels but at least you don't have to ALT+F4 to continue playing the game. Hope the devs fix the issue soon.
