- 2560x1440 was not available when the game was launched on a 1920x1080 desktop despite being the native resolution. This option only became selectable when desktop resolution was set to 1440p.

- Resolution-scaling became disabled when TAA was disabled. The engine uses MSAA for vegetation-rendering, which is forced on in all versions of the game (even on the original PC-release); disabling it leads to transparent and heavily aliased grass. DLSS-version specified in the nvngx_dlss.dll properties menu.

- At 144Hz, framerate-drops cause a consistent 144FPS to drop to a consistent 72FPS.
