I've been noticing screen tear seemingly getting worse and worse in the last few updates. It got real bad after the patch that came before 2.00. Well........I just completely cured it and I now get absolutely no screen tear at all now.
With the new update adding so much hidden stuff and I wanted to see if there were any new specific sound adjustment I was going through the menus. And I noticed something in my display options. I hadn't even looked at this option since launch. And back at launch before I even played the game I went through the options and I had turned OFF flicker reduction. I don't remember which I set it to, normal or sharpen, but launch day I know I specifically thought I don't need flicker reduction.
Well today I noticed it was back on. So I'm thinking one of the updates set that setting to flicker reduction by default. Well when I saw that I didn't even set it to normal, I set it directly to sharpen, just to see if I noticed any diference in visuals, I wasn't even thinking about screen tear. Well since I set that I have had absolutely ZERO screen tearing. Nothing noticable anyway. And I was getting it bad every time I took a corner, especially if I hit the rumble strips.
So to anyone getting the screen tearing, check that setting in display options, and set it to sharpen and see if that doesn't cure your screen tearing. It worked miracles for me.
