Changing the refresh rate
The game seems to choose the lowest screen refresh rate available to the monitor. In order to change the screen refresh rate, press ~ (or the key above Tab) to open the console, enter the line: gap_iRefreshRate=60 (or whatever refresh rate you want) then restart the game.

Alt+Tab ↹ crashes to desktop
| Alt+Tab ↹ will eventually crash to desktop. Happens very rarely, but best way to fix it is to either use Windowed or Borderless Fullscreen. |

~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/227780/in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (227780) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
