Issues unresolved
Steam overlay is not available
Opening the Steam overlay in the retail game causes all input (keyboard or controller) to be ignored, requiring a restart of the game.
Game won't launch with Steam Controller connected
The game will fail to launch while the Steam Controller is connected to your computer. This also means the controller isn't compatible with the game. Possibly related to the Steam Overlay not being supported.

Use Elisha's Windows 10 Patch[citation needed] |
