Issues unresolved
Game crashes randomly
To help mitigate the issue, make sure the frame rate is capped no higher than 60.[11]
- Only the camera logic will run uncapped, while the rest of the game runs at 30 or 60 regardless of the frame rate setting.
- Crashes are less likely to occur at lower refresh rates. This means 30 is the most stable.
