Bug makes game almost unplayable.

I bought BRiNK today and I love it.
However this is marred by the bug im experiencing that ruins the gameplay for me.
All the particle effects - grenades, muzzleflashes, bullet impacts etc - do not show up at all. Instead I get an opaque black box where the textures for said effect should appear.

This makes aiming down iron sights impossible as the guns muzzleflash now completely obscures my aim, as it is just a big black box.
I tried reinstalling the game and it made no difference.

I checked for similar bugs of this type reported on the forum, but the case of this occurring that I found had no replies and no solutions.

Im using

2.27GHz i5 CPU
4096 Mb RAM
Nvidia GeForce GT330M
Direct X 11

I honestly dont know whats wrong but this bug has made the game so unenjoyable as to be unplayable.

Please help, I love this game and wnat to be able to enjoy it as intended.

I dont know. Im not sure how to check the version no. of my currently installed graphics driver. So i dont know how old it is. It shouldnt be that old, my computer is set to automatically update these every so often. But like i said i cant be sure, because idont know how to check tge version numbers.

Right click your desktop and see if you get a NVIDIA control panel option. If you do, click it and go to "help" > "system information"...your driver version should be one of the first things listed in the bottom box.

If you don't have a NVIDIA control panel option on your desktop, you should be able to get there by going to "control panel" > "hardware and sound" through your start menu.
