Issues unresolved
- Couldn`t enable any EAX through Creative alchemy(X-FI).
- The game filters very slight mouse movements, making it nearly impossible to perform very precise aiming on the medium-high mouse sensitivity (including the default mouse sensitivity). The issue is unresolved, and as a workaround, you may lower your mouse sensitivity.
- Rarely, after having used the tactical tools (Binoculars, Thermal vision), the game may re-open another tactical tool when you try closing it, and once you exit, you cannot use fire and pick up firearms anymore
Issues fixed
Graphics not being rendered correctly
Disable Software Vertex Processing[citation needed] |
