Refresh Rate Issues

Issues can occur with the games fixed refresh rate when using a monitor with a higher or lower refresh rate.[1] NVIDIA card users can fix this issue using a Refresh Rate Patcher which locks the frame rate for all games, and can easily be enabled/disabled.

This appears to be caused by the game process being set to 'low'. This can be set to 'high', but restarting the game will reset this to 'low'.[2]

Reportedly using Game Booster will fix this issue.[3]

Unable To Move

This can be fixed by disabling the anti-virus program running (such as Avast).[4]

The game currently prevents users from installing on Windows XP. Currently the only solution is to install the game on Windows Vista or Windows 7.
