  4. Verified by User:MasterBlaster on 2024-03-12
    Tested by playing the game with my computer set at 2560x1080 resolution. The game's display resolution options didn't present me with my set resolution or any other ultrawide or ultratall resolutions, either.
  5. Verified by User:MasterBlaster on 2024-03-12
    Tested by taking several screenshots at the same scene during the opening cutscene and comparing them. The game appears to force 4x AF at all times, as disabling and testing AF through Nvidia Control Panel resulted in blurrier textures at lower strengths and sharper textures at higher strengths in comparison. Forcing 4x AF through the Control Panel puts it at a match for the AF set by the game.
