I also had a problem where I would go from nothing to absolute black out and back again. There was no "grey" to "Black". When you pulled any G's that woudl start to bring you into grey out, the screen would go competely black. Again, just another bug or anomaly within the game that I fixed through a video setting.
I am having serious issues with this problem. Quite often my screen goes completely black while pulling low g turns (2 to 3g).
Could you point me to the thread where this was discussed?
thanks
