Issues unresolved
Stuttering when opening the map
- Accessing the map after using the mouse to interact with inventory items such as loadout entries or collectibles may result in stuttering.[33] Using the keyboard or a gamepad does not trigger this effect.[33]
Open and close the pause menu with Esc to stop the stuttering until the inventory is accessed again.[34] |
---|
Anchor Boss Fight Crash
- The game crashes during the anchor boss fight. The issue seems to be related to CPU cores.
Don't play the side mission containing the boss fight. |
---|
Potential Workaround[35][Note 4]
- Launch the game
- Open the Details tab of the Task Manager
- Right-click Control_DX12.exe or Control_DX11.exe, depending on what you're running
- Click "Set Affinity"
- Select only CPU 0, CPU 1, CPU 2, and CPU 3
Rainbow-colored lighting bug/glitch
- Sometimes you may encounter a lighting glitch that has very bright rainbow-like colors in places that shouldn't have them.
Restart your game |
---|
Issues fixed
Hiss voices are in a different language
- The Hiss incantation language spoken by the floating bodies is tied to that of the operating system, not the in-game audio settings.[34]
Change Windows regional format[34] |
---|
|
No choice of DirectX 11 or 12
Use the -dx11 or -dx12 command line arguments to launch the game in the desired DirectX version.[36]
|
---|
Blurry textures
- High-resolution textures may not load immediately, resulting in signs, posters, portraits, and other objects briefly appearing blurry when nearby.
New "Max" texture quality setting |
---|
|
Mod in more aggressive texture streaming[37] |
---|
Note:
|
Update to Windows 10 version 1803 or higher[39][40] |

In-game Videos stuttering and tearing on Nvidia GPUs

- A 64-bit operating system is required.
Notes
- ↑ Discouraged to buy this: is more expensive than the Ultimate Edition and it likely misses several patches for the Ultimate Edition.[5]
- ↑ Control Content Steam depot contains the Ultimate Edition and and the Control Standard Edition Content Steam depot contains the Standard Edition. Two separate Steam depots also available that contain the expansions. Can be bought for the Standard Edition through Humble Bundle, but also automatically owned when people buy the Ultimate Edition.[6][7]
- ↑ 3.0 3.1 Notes regarding Steam Play (Linux) data:
- File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data.
- Games with Steam Cloud support may also store data in
~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/870780/
. - Use Wine's registry editor to access any Windows registry paths.
- The app ID (870780) may differ in some cases.
- Treat backslashes as forward slashes.
- See the glossary page for details on Windows data paths.
- ↑ Between muting the game and enabling it to run on a toaster, this was the only thing that worked perfectly for me, running Windows 11 on a Ryzen 5 7600.
