Heres what i tried

Verifying game cache on steam

Re-installed the game

used every amd driver starting from 14.7 up to the newest drivers

Checked the temps and GPU usuage while playing (everything is normal)

i finally formated my pc and it still didnt solve the problem, this has stopped my progression as im unable to see anything 

 

all other games run fine, wticher 3/csgo/Dragon age/dragons dogma

 

And Thanks in advance for any help!

artifacts like that are usually the result of instability in the GPU...usually the VRAM...i would try to inject a bit of extra voltage into the card (like +15mv or something) and lower the clockspeed a little bit on both the GPU and (especially) the video memory...use MSI afterburner to do that.
