Poor Performance

Instructions
Instructions

Control issues

Many users are reporting the mouse + keyboard controls being unresponsive.[4]

Pop-in issues

The game has severe pop-in issues, and there are no settings for changing the render distance.[4]

Crash to Desktop

General

The game will crash to the desktop if your system does not meet the minimum GPU requirement.[5]

Corrupted Settings File

If the game crashes to the desktop even if you meet the system requirements, your settings file may be corrupted.
Instructions

Screen Tearing

The game has screen tearing while in the borderless mode. The borderless mode does not seem to be real borderless mode which is also proven by the fact that the mouse cursor moves at the fps of the game, and that the screen flickers very shortly on alt tabbing/windows key. Also has screen tearing regardless of settings except if the ingame vsync is turned on, and fullscreen is enabled. Forcing Vsync through GPU control panel has no effect.[citation needed]

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/275850/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (275850) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
