Issues unresolved
Unreliable performance
- Due to the game being designed for 30 fps, many users report erratic performance at higher framerates, including stuttering and severe framerate drops.[7][8][9][10]
- These issues are observed regardless of detail settings and resolution, even on high-end systems.
(partial fix) Limit framerate to 30 fps[citation needed] |
---|
Locking the framerate at 30 fps (in video options) seems to alleviate most of the problems, resulting in much smoother overall gameplay. |
(partial fix) Set borderless windowed mode in game video options[citation needed] |
---|
Can give greater stability boost than above. |
The game shows white screen during ingame daytime on AMD cards
(partial fix) Downgrade to 18.2.1 version drivers or older |
---|
Developer is informed about the issue. |
Change the camera[citation needed] |
---|
Disable all Uplay, Steam, Fraps, MSI Afterburner overlays[citation needed] |
---|
Update your drivers to at least 18.5.2 version[citation needed] |
---|
Problem is entirely fixed by these drivers. |
