Issues unresolved
High FPS issues
- Some aspects of the AI seems to be tied to framerate, resulting in fights being harder to complete above 30 FPS. For example, the AI may dodge out of combos that it would not normally be able to above 30 frames.
- Certain combos may become harder to perform when running the game above 30 FPS.
Issues fixed
Game crashes at launch
- The game's config files can sometimes cause the game to fail to launch
