How could this game not work with win 8??

This is the only online game I play and the colours of the skins and maps are distorted and in yellow and black mostly

I have the latest graphic drivers etc

When will there be a fix?? or will I have to park up my brand new machine and get my old xp machine fixed to play the game?

    It is working fine with: Win 8.0, 8.1 and 10 MOHAA, Breakthrough and Spearhead. If you are playing from laptop and you have graphics card Intel, there can be a problem but it can be also fix. My colleague is playing on intel graphics card, it need probably old DirectX but I'm not sure about that. If you have another graphic card in your laptop. Click right button of mouse and change graphic processor to Radeon or GeForce. It should help. Default it's always worse graphic card use - Intel, which is not good for moha.

    Hi Support and thanks for getting back to me,

    1. No error messages
    2. I dont use a browser for the game I play (MOHAA) played from the disc once installed
    3. HP desktop p6-2388ea - win8 - 8gb ram - 64bit - AMD Radeon 4.40GHZ

    I tried compatibility mode (no difference)

    I removed and re-installed the game and tried again with a brand new copy of mohaa

    I downloaded and tried the new beta graphics driver from EA games website

    (AMD_Catalyst_12.11_Beta11)

    I re-installed the graphics driver

    The game loads and starts but the graphics of the players and game options are not useable. I can send you some screenshots?

    Thanks

    Gavin

    Hello, 

    I recently installed mohaa on my computer and I believe I am having the same problem as you..

    after install and start up, the game seems normal.. everything is fine.. then i go to multiplayer and the player models graphics are like black and the in game graphics are all black and yellow and weird, unplayable.. Is this the same kind of problem you had? and what fixed it? is this just a bad copy I got?
