Issues fixed

Game not detecting controller

Plug controller after launching game^[3]

Lose window focus and return^[3]
`Alt`+`Tab ↹` out of the game and return.

Dependency installation at each launch

Steam version may try to install dependencies that are already installed.

Edit the registry^{[citation needed]}
Go to `HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Valve\Steam\Apps\45760` If any of the `directx`, `vcredist` or `gfwl` values are missing, you need to add a string with that missing name, and set it with a decimal value of `1`.

Frame rate and online sync issues

Change frame rate options^{[citation needed]}

The game runs best when you use the 'Fixed' frame rate option under 'Graphics Settings' and disable VSync. This also fixes some potential online desynchronization issues. Using the 'Smooth' frame rate option can lead to malfunctioning attacks. The game was designed to be ran at a constant 60fps so anything other than a fixed frame rate can cause issues. If you experience tearing, you can enable VSync either through the game or your graphics driver software, but this adds a minor delay in input, though it's not noticeable to most players.^[4]
