Looked through the bug lists on both the forums and the website and didn't see this, sorry if it's already been noticed:

Occasionally when I'm playing in Fortress mode, the game will freeze all visual movement, leaving just a still shot. It looks like the game is frozen, but only the visuals don't work, and the game runs as normal, sound and all. Hitting F11 fixes it, but I just thought I'd give a heads up for a possible fix. I'm using an NVIDIA GeForce 6100 video card.

Any other observations of this?  I think you can get into a hidden system menu somehow, but I'm not sure if that stops the visuals or not.

I notice it usually happens if I'm scrolling along the map without any options selected (with the Numpad), or when I quickly hit A then space to make an announcement at the bottom disappear. However, I hit keys quickly all the time, and it only rarely locks visuals (maybe once every two hours or so when it does happen, or not at all.) Other than that it appears to be random.
