During a match, elements of the map are constantly flicking is there any fix for this ? Is it a known issue ?

    Same here & I am also playing on a Series X. It started weeks ago immediately after downloading the last mid-chapter patch. There have been 2 bug fix patches & the 6.6.0 patch since then. None have fixed the problem. I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling, & even installing to a different storage device as well as restarting my console & performing a factory reset to no avail. I really wish this would get fixed. It is driving me nuts. It only happens in certain parts of the environment with specific assets like certain patches of grass. It seems to be really bad on the Autohaven Wreckers maps as well as with the white lines on the floor of the Gideon Meat Plant. You can also see it with books on the floor in the Eyrie Of Crows & RPD maps as well as with some of those growths on the walls of the RPD. I don't recall seeing the Coldwind Farms, Silent Hill, new Temple Of Purgation, Decimated Borgo, or Badham maps do it, though.

    Glaive, until they fix this, set your resolution to 1080p if you can handle the resolution downgrade. It makes the flickering stop.

    Scratch that. The flickering persists. It seemed to fix the issue when I posted that suggestion. Sorry about that. Is it still happening to you? There is a patch dropping today. With any luck, it will finally fix the problem but I'm not holding my breath since they don't even seem to be acknowledging it. It is driving me crazy.

    I have this problem too, on Series X, since around the same time and I've always been running that game at 1080P

    I'm glad more people are chiming in & this issue has finally gained some traction. Anyway, I played multiple matches after the mid-chapter patch dropped 2 days ago. I am happy to report that the issue seems to have been fixed. I didn't see a single instance of flickering. Thank you to the devs for fixing this issue.
