I've been scouring the internet, and I seem to be the only person to have this problem :/

Basically, the startup is fine, the login, joining and starting a match, only once the match starts, the whole screen is covered in this odd red grain effect.

I don't know as much as I probably should about these things, but the first thing that came into my head was a shader problem, but I wouldn't know how to help that. Damn this lack of advanced settings.

My system specs are:

Intel Core2 quad Q9000 @2.00ghz
Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit
4gb DDR2
ATI Radeon HD 4850 (well, the laptop version)

I've only ever had a slightly similar problem with Cryostasis, and that was never fixed. I've attached an image to show you what I mean. Please help, because apart from this glitch, the game runs smoothly on every graphics setting.

I've tried re-installing the demo.

Haha, well, I see your point, but it's been fine at playing other things so far, I don't think that's the problem xD

could be that...

I say it's a "feature"

your so special, your suit has special "RAGE VISION" making everything ANGRIER.

it's a feature.

It certainly creates a feeling of rage, yes... maybe I should be more optimistic about these things xD - I'm just gonna hope that the finished game will be fine...

GPU overheating maybe?
Run Rivatuners graph thing in the background to check the GPU temp.
