Issues unresolved
- Check out the official known issues thread to find unresolved issues currently being worked on.
Game session ends abruptly when connection to Steam is lost
- This is a bug actively being worked on by the development team.[3]
Movement speed differs in cooperative mode
- The movement speed of the player is based on various factors such as the weapon currently selected. Part of the movement speed seems tied to the frame rate of the player, meaning people with low frame rate will move slower than those with a higher frame rate.[4]
- The user affected by the slower movement speed can try and lower the graphical settings in an attempt to increase the frame rate to where the movement speed more matches the other players.
Issues fixed
- The official known issues thread might also include instructions on how to fix commonly known issues.
Game does not save properly
Whitelist the game executable in the anti-virus suite running on the computer[5] |

Notes
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in
~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/704270/
in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (704270) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
