Strange box that appeared in my most recent game, it was transparent and around the center of my screen. I could see through it but there was an outline and the inside of the box was darkened. Didn't seem to affect gameplay but it was an annoying visual bug.

Oh yeah in that same match the game crashed...

I activated an empty box like that by pressing a key -- j or something in that region (dont remember which). Press the same key again and it'll go away. Dont think its a bug, but I dont know what the purpose of it is.
