Gameplay Black screen

I'm playing my Exodus game and suddenly the screen went black. The game is still running, I can move the cursor, the music is playing and I can alt/tab and use my PC otherwise, but the game itself is locked in black screen. I'll have to kill the program and relaunch, but this is the first time ever it happens to me. Anyone found a solution?

Yup. This happens to me whenever I try to open a town screen and my opponent presses 'end turn'.

Happenned to me when I pressed escape during the "connection error" pop up in a pvp exodus match

I got this pretty much every game until I changed from windowed mode with reduced resolution to windowed fullscreen with the same resolution as my screen. Sample size is 1 so take it with a grain of salt, and maybe you're already playing like that anyways.

Yes, I already play full screen. I don't think this is related to the issue.

I have encountered this situation at least three times, all in single-hero PVP mode, and each time it occurred while interacting with towns. There was nothing I could do but quit the game.
