Issues fixed

Color corruption

Color corruption may occur if a program other than Windows manages the systems color profile (e.g. f.lux) and the game is run in fullscreen.

Workaround for color corruption^{[citation needed]}
Play the game in windowed or borderless fullscreen mode.

Serious stuttering on Linux

WBPlay has issues with Linux 4.9+, causing serious stuttering in Mad Max and Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor. Feral is aware of the problem and looking for a fix.

Workaround for Linux 4.9+^{[citation needed]}
Play the game with Steam in offline mode. This prevents a connection to WBPlay and stops the stuttering.

Stuttering when auto-saving

Every time the game auto-saves (which is very often), the game hiccups. This happens when the save gets written to the Steam save data location.

Workaround for auto-save stuttering^{[citation needed]}
Prevent the game from saving to the Steam save data location. Go into Properties of the 'remote' folder, open the Security tab and deny write access for all groups/user names. Auto-saves will continue to go to your Documents folder.

Confirmed myself by removing the offline token file and blocking access to revalidate.wbgames.com. This triggered the typical Denuvo offline activation prompt. Different from other protected Steam titles is that the offline token is stored in the \Steam\userdata\<user-id>\234140\dbdata file.
