Red Faction: Guerrilla is a singleplayer and multiplayer third-person action, open world and shooter game in the Red Faction series.
The game originally made use of Games for Windows - LIVE for multiplayer though this was replaced with Steamworks in 2014.[3] Retail copies were made redeemable on Steam to allow existing owners to migrate over to the Steam version.
The retail GFWL version may experience performance issues and glitches in DirectX 10 mode. The Steam version is not affected due to the DirectX 10 render backend having been replaced with a new DirectX 11 backend.[3]

Issues unresolved
Scrolling the map with the keyboard is very fast or very slow
- Because the speed of the map scroll movement with the keyboard is calculated depending on the frame rate, it happens that if the frame rate is high (+60), the map scroll is very fast and if the frame rate is very low (-60) the scroll of the map will be quite slow
Issues fixed
Game doesn't start/can't save
Check GFWL sign-in problems[citation needed] |
