    So I'm running my system in Crossfire and the game supports ATI I would imagine as the Radeon AMD series slogon comes up during the opening credits or advertisements. But I'm annoyed by these dots that show up everytime Fog is suppose to show up which happens alot actually but I know the card is having a hard time to produce fog. My desktop 5870's produce it with no problems but my R2 is struggling at producing the image, here it looks like this. Fog shows up constantly throughout the game from the maps to the Battles, to victory and level ups.

    I'll try to check if I have up-to date drivers but I'm pretty sure I do, can anyone else who plays the game confirm this, and if you don't have this issue could you list your card type and drivers you're using? Thanks.
