Notes
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 Notes regarding Steam Play (Linux) data:

~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/976730/. - Use Wine's registry editor to access any Windows registry paths.
- The app ID (976730) may differ in some cases.
- Treat backslashes as forward slashes.

- "Availabliity:
- Players can purchase each title one-by-one along the way or wait until the collection is complete at the end. We don't have any plans for a 'season pass' model.
- I think we've covered most of these except #1 - we plan to support Windowed Mode, 21:9, 16:9, 16:10, 3:2, 4:3
- Yes, support for FOV-sliders is the plan. We will adjust what level of FOV is supported on a title by title basis. As an example, if adjusting the FOV causes significant player/weapon model distortion, we may need to put limits in.
- Uncapped framerate is the plan, but the specific level of support will vary by title.
- re: Crossplay - PC players will be able to play together regardless of which store they choose to purchase from. In terms of Xbox One to PC crossplay, it's not something we're currently committing to at launch but it is top of mind and the team is actively investigating this.
- re: Dedicated servers for Reach - our goal is to continue using dedicated servers to power the matchmaking experences within MCC. We'll definitely share more details as development progresses.
- A custom games browser is of course very important to us and something we're looking forward to bringing to MCC on PC and Xbox One.
- Currently our focus is on Win10 and Win7. Win8 is still being investigated."
