Poor Performance

Control issues
- Many users are reporting the mouse + keyboard controls being unresponsive.[2]
Pop-in issues
- The game has severe pop-in issues, and there is no settings for changing the render distance.[2]
Crash to Desktop
General
- The game will crash to the desktop if your system does not meet the minimum GPU requirement and does not have a CPU supporting SSE 4.1.[3][4]
- The developer is actively working to reduce the required level of SSE support.[5]
Corrupted Settings File
- If the game crashes to the desktop even if your system meets the system requirements and have a CPU supporting SSE 4.1, your settings file may be corrupted.

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
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 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>/275850/. - Use Wine's registry editor to access any Windows registry paths.
- The app ID (275850) may differ in some cases.
- Treat backslashes as forward slashes.
- See the glossary page for details on Windows data paths.
