Issues fixed
No sound
Disable surround sound on audio drivers[8]
|
FPS Drop/Issues
Disable MSAA in Display Options[citation needed]
|
- This should fix issues with huge FPS drops that come from opening doors or cutscenes.
|
Game doesn't show up in Windows 8.1
- In Windows 8.1, sometimes the game will appear to start minimized, and any attempts at restoring the game will not work.
Disable Exclusive Fullscreen[citation needed]

DX 11 Crashes on Nvidia GeForce 500 and 600 series
Increase Vcore to the GPU slightly or Drop the GPU Clocks[citation needed]
|
- It seems Nvidia have set the default Vcore too low on the 5xx/6xx series cards. They do pass stress testing but crash in a few Real World DX11 intensive games.
