Key points

Reports from a beta version of the game indicate an exceptionally bad PC port, with many of essential PC features such as text chat, ability to modify FOV or support of non-16:9 display aspect ratios missing in addition to many, many more issues.[Note 1] It is unclear how much of these features will be added or fixed by launch.[1]

Notes

  1. Since this note would be absurdly long otherwise, it's kind of a list:
    • Reports indicate poor optimisation
    • Gameplay is tied to framerate (reportedly capped using Vsync instead of busy wait)
    • Lack of FOV customisation (default 80)
    • Lack of native support for non-16:9 display aspect ratios
    • It is possible to play the game in wider aspect ratios, but elements of UI will often end up outside of screen
    • Lack of option to adjust or disable effects such as "Motion Blur" and "Depth of Field"
    • Lack of option to disable mouse smoothing
    • Lack of text chat
    • Lack of option to set voice communication to push to talk (Open mic only)
    • (As always) Loads and loads of bugs
    • Limited keyboard rebinding options and overall unintuitive controls (i.e. ESC opens a map)
    Make sure to update this, with each patch!
