He's not seeing the targets until 2-4km. This is NOT correct, at least as far as the game goes. With a zoomed in HUD, I can start to spot specs at about 24km, At default zoom I see them easily from about 12km.
This was a problem I had during 1.02 days until I swapped my video card with my wife's (identical cards) and it was then normal. Very strange indeed!! The "defective" card that I had worked perfectly, except for spotting targets. I get the exact same performance with my wife's card.
The only constant that me and Russianfish can find is that our cards are both by Sapphire. This problem is not affected with driver changes or game reinstalls.
So does anyone else have some help for him, short of buying a new card?
