Anyone experienced this bug?

[Scarebird]

Just played a game in the tier III Pan Asian destroyer and half way through the game I lost all HUD display.  No aiming reticle, no team lists, no module status - nothing.  To start it was flickering and then it just disappeared.  Pretty much impossible to play with no HUD so was wondering if anyone else had experienced it?

Nope, last time that happened to me was about 18 months ago, disable your mods (Play in safe mode), and try again.

Check, maybe you have some button sticking . There are virtual keyboards you can use do check it.

 

If you are playing with Laptop, then check your Pointing Device (inbuilt mouse), in my computer it sometimes thinks that somebody is using it and does allsort of weird stuff.

I've had similar in a test server a few weeks ago trying out the Yamato BB i went into hud zoom lock and screen froze showing same area i last fired at, i was able to fire but couldn't move turrets while all other game action was still going on even didn't know if i was moving.

 

Though it was in the tester and has only happened once to me and not in main game i didn't worry about it, if it was regulier i would have reported it .

I've had it a few times. Only way was to exit game. The last time it happened I was last ship alive, could have won. Team was not pleased judging by the reduction in Karma.

Yes been through that 5-10 times or so , but it was for me a while ago, happened more during first year with wows, cant remember in 2017. You might try a integrity check in the start up meny. Might help with problems maybe not this one but it does not hurt.

Use ALT + Enter to switch to windowed mode and again to switch back to full screen. Should solve the problem.

Had it once long ago, more than a year, maybe a year and a half ago. Don't even remember what caused it and how I solved it (but probably restarting the game).

 

Glad I haven't had it again, because it happened to me too in the middle of a battle and its a bug that completely screws you over.

[indycar]

hmm have you tried the CTRL+G

[Scarebird]

Interesting that I'm not the only one.  I don't use mods and am not playing on a laptop, so rules those possibilities out.  Restarting the game solved it for me when it happened and, keeping fingers crossed, it hasn't happened again since.

I had the same problem earlier this year.

I created a ticket with WG as I was not alone having this problem, very shortly after an update came from WG out and the problem went away. I remember WG gave me a link to check my system was up to the minimum specification for game play to rule out the possibility of it being my computer..

I suggest you screenshot when it happens again before you forward a ticket to WG because if you have evidence that can be viewed they can determine the fix....

As far as I remember the update fixed the problem for me and my friends who had the same problem....

 

Resolution change has been suggested by another forum member above and that may not be a bad idea until you can find the cause...

Had this once. Game crashed shortly after.

Tried to record and take screenshots of it but both the video and the image files were corrupted.

 

If it happens I would suggest restarting the game immediately to save yourself some time.
