Key points
- The PC version features high resolution textures, high quality shadows, tessellation and more PC-specific features while also being fairly well optimized.
- The OS X version also suffers from multiple issues, one being the complete lack of multiplayer, due to the GameSpy services being shut down.[2]
- The ambient occlusion setting should be set to SSAO, due to the way it performs.[3][4]
