    Hills and mountains morphing like a strange drug trip

    Anyone else ever notice this? It happens to me alot on Kubra Dam. I'll be flying around any random mountains and the mountain "warps" or "morphs" as if I just took a microgram hit of you know what. It's kind of like the mountain is animated. The effect goes away once you get close but you can get it to appear by moving away. It's not really a gameplay destroying bug but then again, I have yet to see anyone hiding on these hills and mountains that morph suddenly.

    Been happening since day one. Doesn't mess with my framerate any, but it looks weird.

      Yea it sure does look weird. The first time I saw it I thought "WTF!?". Of course it didn't help that I was high at the time.

        Yeah I know what you're talking about, I have draw distance at 100% and it does it on many things.

          What other objects do you notice it on? I have 100% draw distance too and I only notice it on mountains and hills.

            It has to do with the low detail textures of the terrain and what the viewdistance of the map is set to I believe. It doesn't do it on static objects like buildings, just on terrain because it does change based upon how close you are to it.

              Only ever noticed it on Kubra dam.
              I quite like it.
              Seems to happen to me most on the upper hills, right up close to the dam.

                  I like it too. It would be interesting to see what this "glitch" or effect would look like on other objects.

                          It's like seeing the crop circles.Or whitnessing the exploding crates of sinister pink teddy bears.

                          .....You're bloody relieved other people see this too.

                            I like when the terrain is supposed to line up with a model like a dock but it doesn't until you get close, and you can see it warping into it. Good times.

                              The whole crawling landscape thing bugged me at first. But then I got used to it. Sometimes, if you're lucky, you can see snipers hovering in midair above a hillside. What bugs me more is the stationary weapons disappearing at a shorter distance than the soldiers are. They hop in one at range, and they just disappear. Poof!
