Essential improvements
- It is advisable to download the free Hi Res Movies DLC which increases cutscene quality significantly and shouldn't affect gameplay performance. The resolution and frame rate of the high resolution videos are identical (1280x720, 29.97 FPS), but the bitrate has been more than doubled (from ~6.7mpbs to ~15.9mbps), getting rid of almost all compression artifacting.

Remapping
- The game uses a strange implementation of key binding - the player is not allowed to change an action to a key which is already bound to another action. Lost Planet 3 will not allow the player to unbind an existing key bind, swap key binds, or let two actions be bound to the same key. This is a problem because Lost Planet 3 has several actions bound by default to one key, yet players cannot move all the bindings to another key. This issue also makes swapping keybindings a significantly longer process.

Issues fixed
Campaign progress is not saved
- A crucial folder stopped being created after the Steamworks update; this was promptly fixed, but this fix remains posted just in case of issues.

"Rotate WASD" not working
- At some points in the game, you will be asked to use the Claw Arm on your Rig to turn a wheel. It will tell you to rotate WASD, as if using a joystick. Since moving in eight cardinal directions doesn't count as rotating, nothing will happen.
