Zombie torsos disappearing

  • On some configurations, a common problem are enemy torsos disappearing in many moments of the game - this makes playing House of the Dead: Overkill extremely difficult. This issue seems to be mostly related to GCN-based AMD Radeon graphics cards and can often be solved by reverting to Catalyst 13.12.[2]
