My Subnautica is currently un-playable. Upon starting the game up it will take me to the title screen and show new game, load game, options, the news board, etc. However the background which is usually water is black. Upon starting a new game it will get to the point where it says "press any button to continue". Upon doing so the screen will just go black and nothing happens. I have to open task manager and force close the game. I am using the stable version, not experimental.
If I choose to load one of my two games it will go to the loading screen correctly and the game will start playing. However if I open my pause menu, the menu comes up but the game doesn't pause. I can hover my mouse over the menu options and they turn orange but when I click they won't do anything and I drown with the pause screen up. Upon further tinkering I found that I could swim away from the pause menu. It will stay in place where I opened it and I can swim towards it and away from it to the point it is no longer in sight. I also found that pressing F8 will not bring up the feedback menu.
I don't have any more information as a month ago I was playing the game with no issues, but when I started it up a week ago these issues started, so I have no idea what possibly could have triggered this issue. I have even completely uninstalled the game and deleted every file pertaining to subnuatica on my computer and re-installed the game, however the issue persists. I have uninstalled and re-installed 2 times with the issues persisting. I'm at my wits end here pulling out my hair because of this. I looked around on google and I can't find anyone else having any similar issues so it seems to be just me. I payed for this game and I can't play it, this needs to be looked into. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated but if Un-installing and re-installing didn't solve the issue I'm completely out of luck it seems.
