Issues unresolved

Crashing during gameplay

Some players have reported crashes to desktop unrelated to having files remaining from the beta.[24][25][26]
Downclock Nvidia graphics card to reference speeds[27]
  1. Open the NVIDIA Control Panel by right-clicking on the desktop background or by other means.
  2. From the Help menu at the top, enable the Debug Mode by clicking on it.
Disable the option to retain optimal performance in other games.

Sounds missing

A number of surround sound users have reported audio issues ranging from missing sound effects to no sound in the game.
Switching from surround to stereo output may serve as a workaround.[28][29]
Set speaker configuration to stereo
  1. Open the Sound applet from the Windows Control Panel or search bar.
  2. Select the default playback device and click on Configure.
  3. Set the audio channels configuration to Stereo and proceed through the following confirmation steps.
In the event of unexpected loss of all audio output, restarting the game may help.[30]

Resolution locked below 1080p

A number of dual monitor users have reported their 16:9 game resolution being locked to values below 1080p in fullscreen.[31][32]
Set Window Mode to Windowed, and maximize it to fill the screen.[33]

Game freezes

The game may occasionally completely freeze for seconds. High CPU usage is a possible cause for the issue.
Limit FPS through the Foreground Framelock option in the video settings.[34]

Issues fixed

Crashing on launch

The game may crash on launch for players that have participated in the open beta.
Remove a game file remaining from the beta[35]
  1. Go to <path-to-game>.
  2. Delete DataPC_TGT_WorldMap.forge.

Mouse stuttering

A number of players have reported stuttering of mouse and cursor movement in the game.
From the video options, set Vsync to on and off, applying the change each time.[36]

Inability to Alt-Tab

The game may not always allow to task switch between itself in fullscreen and other applications.[37]
Press Alt+ Enter twice or set Window Mode to Windowed and back in the video options.[38]
