My game has been flickering constantly ever since beta. It does NOT happen with any other game (CSGO, Heroes of the Storm, Rocket League).

See here:Example

Computer Specs: AMD FX-8350 8g RAM GA-990FXA-UD3 AMD Radeon R9 290 - I am using the latest firmware and software version for the video card
What I have tried so far:
1. Going from low -> high and high -> low settings
2. Disabling AND enabling Vsync (usually off)
3. Lowest texture filtering quality to highest
4. Changed anti-aliasing methods from multi -> adaptive and back
5. Windowed -> Fullscreen -> windowed borderless
6. Changed resolution and refresh rates offered in game
7. Tried on a different monitor (since i run dual monitors)
8. Rolled back drivers to 2 versions ago (perhaps I can go further back?) 9. Clean wiped drivers and reinstalled

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!
 
Unfortunately that sounds like a game glitch. If it appeared right after an update it seems very likely that software is the problem. I would report it to the game devs and wait for a response. Not much else to do.
 


Hmm this happened when it was in beta as well. Couple of friends do not run into this sort of issue. However they are running r9 390..
 


It could be something weird like the specific motherboard/gpu combo. Some little piece of software doesn't like it and is giving you problems. Try a different card if you have one. Just to see if that's it.
