-'''Key points'''
-{{ii}} Some players report different framerate caps. It may be 60 FPS for some immediately, while it will be 30 FPS for others. If it is locked at 30 FPS, try the solutions below.
-{{--}} Some poor optimization and heavy on performance.
-{{--}} No controller support.
-{{--}} The game is running with D3D11 renderer which causes slow down and poor performance.
-{{++}} Switching from D3D11 renderer to D3D9 renderer with this [[Glossary:Command line arguments|command line arguments]] <code>-force-d3d9</code> caps the framerate at 60 FPS with no known issues.
