Friend lobby requires open NAT settings (or port forwarding) since it's P2P-based (not hosted by Ubisoft). This makes it impossible to play with friends with most aircards.

Issues unresolved

"Press any key" start screen doesn't respond

Disabling AA incorrectly raise VRAM reported usage

(This is technically misleading or incorrect. Setting Multisample AA to Temporal Filtering does use less VRAM than OFF as it renders the game at half resolution and applies MSAA 2x to cover up the downscale.)

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>/359550/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (359550) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
