Look at that known issues list shrink!

These drivers are extra unstable. I'm getting lockups sometimes when loading Heroes of the Storm. In game it flicker. I get random lockups in Windows. Overclocking is unstable. Radeon settings crashes a lot. Roll back to 18.2.2 and no issues.

there is quite a lot of people in forums having crashes with ROTR on the Geothermal Valley section, at least in all the 18.x releases, but I think they started happening before, in 17.10 or 17.11, don't remember.

Yet, that isn't on the known issues list..

Also, since I updated to the Adrenalin Edition drivers, the AMD app won't notify me of driver updates. Any ideas why?

Did you file a report w/AMD?

Sure have.

are there any beta updates for the game? on somewhat rare occasions, graphical anomalies are at least circumvented on public beta builds that include reworked code that isn't officially supported or released. might be worth taking a look at unless confirmed otherwise to not make a difference.
