missions backgrounds
nobody knows at all? :/
Yes The mission details updates or "flickers" when a new member of the team zones to your zone or enters the mission (speaking off past experiences) Never been bothered to /bug it because its minor and the text normally reappears.
As for the contacts and their avatar/display things, countless often dissapear, dont exist or generally bug (sometimes due to graphics generated by you). Again havent bugged it myself but i am aware of it as i guess are the devs? But feel free to /bug these things in game to be fixed (:
Try changing your graphics settings if your graphics card can handle it - on low graphics settings I do quite frequently end up seeing through some parts of people's costumes, which could explain the bald head thing.
However, I wouldn't say any of the graphics flicker, for me. Might be worth updating your graphics card drivers and so on, just in case it's related to that. Posting what graphics card you have might help people answer your question, too.

It seems to be that every time i hover over a character, a link, a button, etc
that the background starts to flicker
(thats when i can see into the next room for lyk a split 2 seconds) then goes off again.
ive only joined, and ive added a new post because i cant find any threads which relate to this. (probably because i dont really know whats its called.)
Is it me or does the missions backgrounds FLICKER or GLITCH alot.. Sometimes the character shows a bald head then goes back to normal.
Thats the same with missions - If anyone understands what im talking about, Is there anyway to fix this?
