Default Counters pixelated and 'flashing' after latest patch. Help?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FejRDr8NOhI

Video of what I mean (sorry about the quality, it wasn't that bad when I uploaded it).

This has ONLY been happening since the August 8th patch. It can't be my laptop, because I was playing for over 2 hours just the day before, and everything was fine - in fact, I've never had an issue like this. Also, it's ONLY affecting the counters - everything else is fine and working normally.

I thought it was a mod/CC at first, but this is happening (and the video was recorded in) a completely vanilla game; no mods, no CC and a new save. I did tweet SimGuruNick about it, but I don't think he's seen it, as I've had no reply as of yet. In my opinion, it seems to be a glitch tied to the patch, because it was working in the hours before the patch, then as soon as I updated, this started.

I've tried repairing the game through Origin, but it didn't make any difference.

Is ANYONE else having this weird glitch?

Would an uninstall and reinstall work, or should I just wait and see if it's mentioned by the gurus?

I'd like to get back to playing my legacy, but looking at those flashing counters constantly is driving me nuts.
