I have the same problem. I can't believe I can't find a fix for this. First time I ever had a crappy buy from Steam.

You're computer does not meet the min requirements for this game. If you end up finding a fix for the black screen you will only continue to have performance issues.

For everyone else: If you are using SLI or Crossfire, disable it for this game. This was my issue and may not work for everyone. Also make an exception in your antivirus software. Especially if you're using Avast or AVG, both have known conflicts with steam and steam games.

What I can say is, never ever ever buy two gpu's to do SLI. There's no point. So few games support it and if they do, they don't continue to support it after patches. Just take the money and buy a better single gpu.

You played an illegal copy...A) I would never advertise that you did so in the steam forums. B) Those versions are never given support, so there will always be issues. Always buy the full version of the game and support the devs so they can patch or add content...if you don't like the game at that point you can always do a steam refund, if it's within the parameters for a refund.

Try my two suggestions. The most common issue would be SLI. There are only a handful of games that support SLI. Out of those that support SLI only a fraction of them have it coded properly so that SLI will work well. Only a fraction of those will continue to support SLI after launch and fix any issues that may be caused by SLI. When it comes down to it, there may be a dozen or so games that truely support SLI....This game is not one.

Another program that I've been seeing issues with is Razer Cortex. If you have that running when launching, try disabling it then go into the game.

EDIT: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=9828-SFLZ-9289 - here's a link to all known programs that have conflicts with steam and steam games.

This game is bad for black screens, played for 5min today and the screen went black while game music still playing, was there ever a solution to this or a work around, can't remember. When it does go black the fans in my pc like to ramp up a bit lol but temperature is definetly not an issue
