Stuttering Graphics

Occasionally, the graphics in the game will appear to 'stutter', despite having a high frame rate. This can occur no matter what the system spec (including OS) of the PC running the game. No worries though; restarting the computer will solve this one.

Crash when installed in a Storage Space

The game will refuse to run when installed on a drive which is managed by a Storage Space on Windows 8 and later.
