A truly funny video of the "black screen" effect if you get it and can get into the game. Some folks have suggested spamming "start" will get you past it. I don't have any personal experience with that. |

I've seen it happen to a few people... thought it was pretty funny. My teammate somehow survived an entire match at the center of Manus Peak in a skirmish match. |

Yea the only way to fix is somehow go to your map or something. Or hold R2 and go to map. IDK but if you see somebody having a stroll on the battlefield- walking without a gun, means they just came from the blackscreen. I went into a match with the blackscreen just now, then came out with no guns. But you can hack and hope into vehicles. Turrets etc. I went 5/2 using a turret. Apparently its funny as hell seeing me walk around- reported by my squad.
All in all this is bullshit, and should be fixed immediately especially for people who spawn with aur items equiped. Or have boosters on... |

I already mentioned how to get out of the black screen in Post #32
Dpad Down, Dpad Up, Circle, Circle
Which equates to:
Open the map, open the team sheet, cancel out of both
Then you can see.
For more details of my testing, go back to Page 2, Post #32. Others have posted additional details after that.
... .As for that vid that's posted just above here.. lol, that is awesome with the inertia dampeners.. Though it's also worrying just how many people are being effected by this.. that's 4 people straight off who can't contribute to the map. |

Same problem here. Everything is fine until I spawn in match, then black screen of death.
CCP take note: it is complete fail to upload a patch on friday and then go home over the weekend without seeing if it breaks the game.
Fail CCP. Fail.
Do this crap on Mondays or Tuesdays.

Last map half of the other team and half of our team spawned w/o weapons and I would assume had the blackscreen stuff.
BTW opening the map or pressing start menu is not a complete fix, it just allows you to see that screen, but the black will come back till you restart the game. |

Haven't had this all day.
Read this thread, suddenly I'm walking around without a gun.
Dear reds, I don't have a gun. Please stop shooting me.

Updated the game and also ran into the black screen on Ambush (playing from U.S.). It appeared immediately after the game transitioned from the lobby after you choose a fit. I could hear my character on the battlefield and got to hear someone murder me with a shotgun. |

Given that CCP just patched things that happen when you select your dropsuit, and now we're all getting a black screen when we select our dropsuits... it looks like CCP badly needs to revert whatever they did today. |

I have not encountered the black screen or seen anyone running around without weapons while playing from europe. Maybe it is different depending on which server you are connected to.
There was a time a few weeks ago where I had a team mate walking around without weapons, sounds like an existing bug that was rare back then but is triggered more often now. |

Black Screen confirmed for funniest glitch. Just mash select and start until you can see and move around. You'll Walk Real Fast about the place and maybe look on the ground and find Wepon. I spent an entire game just waddling up behind oblivious reds and waiting for them to turn around and see me staring at them. Handicapped my team but we won anyway.
seems to be a failure to transition from "lobby mode" to "run and gun" mode when you select your spawn location and loadout. |

Re-installing the game is something that will take hours to do and we don't know if it will fix it. So he played 8 matches without getting the black screen after he re-installed. I restarted my playstation and played 10+ matches without having the blackscreen hit me. It would still affect half of the team at a time, but not me. Does this mean restarting the playstation perma fixed my problem?
No. |

I believe that this glitch is more random than that.
Just to outline.. I in no way am related to CPP in any form of development, but i am a game programmer myself. So simply using an edjucated guess (Which could still be wrong). I believe that doing a reinstall will change nothing.
My explanation for why i believe this, i do not believe there are any corrupted files, in my perspective reinstalling will simply restore the files to the state they are currently in, then your just waiting on a 'random' occurance to happen again.
There doesn't seem to be any way to force yourself to get this glitch as yet from what people have reported, it may happen, or it might not, that is the nature of 'random'.
So personally i'll wait for a patch, and just provide feedback in the meantime.
On a seperate note, remember everyone... the game is still in Beta. Which is what we call builds when they are not 100% ready for mainstream release. Sure it's open beta, which means more people can join in, but in the eyes of the developers the game is still not ready. Therefore we are their eyes and ears, their testers and our feedback is important to a developer.
So there's two extremes, those who demand fixes and complain about the state of the game, and those who think that giving constructive feedback to the developers is 'whinging'.
What you should all be aiming for is a midpoint, where you are not 'blaming' ccp for the state of the game, but just submitting feedback so that they can use the information provided towards creating a fix.
The more testing we do and feedback we provide leads to a more well polished game.
So please don't whinge, please don't mistake constructive feedback for whinging, and please supply the developers with test case information which can help them resolve any issues.
The Dev's have seen this post and let us know they've seen it which we are grateful for. They've also said there may be information via the announcements forum, so we just need to keep our eyes out there for a potential fix. Until then, just continue to supply information from any testing you have done and i'm sure the dev's will be grateful for it.
Cheers.

Another question:
Do you have circle of death when you select fittings from yesterday?
YES/NO
If yes.. bad fix.. if no good fix, but another fix is needed ;) |

Had the black screen problem most of the evening (UK/GMT) of the 15th March after starting game with new update.
Screen went black after trying to pick suit for initial deployment after merc lounge. I could hear and talk with squad mates. If I died I could see the map screen, but if I selected deployment again I got the black screen. Deaths did seem to be registering on the battle report / team list screen
Restarting the game did not fix the problem for me.
Found that if you could get a team mate to direct you into a vehicle, you could enter the vehicle and then see again, even fire turrets.
Did make for some fun Beta play though

Played on evening of 16th March after downtime and did not experience any black screen problems. Did not see any announcement that CCP had fixed the issue, but did notice that there was an extended downtime |

Still had this happen today, and yesterday. Today, in Ambush map going solo, yesterday squadded up with mates during Skirmish.
Not really a workaround, but if you do get black screen, you can go to the map view (select button?) that lets you view overhead as battle rages, and give God's Eye View play-by-play to your squad.
We did this (myself in one match, and another squaddie in another match) and we still managed to get decent SP and ISK.
At least until they patch this. I know it sucks bad to reboot PS3, but until you have to, hang in there, don't leave the game, unless kills are important to you?
