Me and many other people (you can read many feedbacks on the “hub”, or on the french site www.jeuxvideo.com) have the same problem : since the patch 3.5, the “Shadow Lord” does not work…
Once we have chosen our team in “Shadow Lord”, we just run on the “Tour 1” to fight the first mimic. And we all have the same weird black screen, with “Tour 1” written in blue.
We wait again and again, but nothing happens… So me and the others players did the same thing : leave the game and restart it. And when we come back, it still does not work, but also the game thinks we lost the fight, so our fighter is dead !
Personnaly I have the cd version of the “Definitive edition”. I already sent a message to “Double Helix” on their official website, but I really need to fix this please…
The trouble also appears on the downloadable version. I tried it too… I also tried to send the screen capture on the “hub” but we can’t post anything… So I am wondering if someone will read my message and fix the game.
