Hi Brolin, Sorry to hear that.
The ground is using a shader that makes the texture of the rocks, cliffs and the rest have a 3D pumps and stuff like that, but in-order to render all these details it requires Direct X 11 or above to be installed.
Can you please let me know if your computer specs are above the minimum tested specs that I mentioned in the front page?
Thank you.
"System Requirements (Minimum tested specs)
OS: Win 7
Processor: i5
Memory(RAM): 6GB
Graphics: Geforce GTX 460
Direct X: Version 11
Storage: 4 GB available space"
Very strange it should work just fine, since it works with lower specs. The only thing that would cause the black terrain (ground) is Direct X
As I mentioned it needs Direct x 11 or above to be installed, if you'd like to check follow this link:

However I'll look into it again, but since you're unable to play the game please let me know if you'd like a refund.
Thanks.
