Issues unresolved

No icons in Main Menu

Some users have reported the game failing to render any menu icons. Running a certain AMD APUs may be the cause. No solution is known currently.

Enemies disappearing

Sometimes the game removes enemies and other NPCs if they are still relatively close to the player but not in plain sight anymore. This can cause the randomly spawned side objectives (like saving a civilian) to just disappear after running around a building.^{[citation needed]}
