Known Issues

  • Game performance is poor despite meeting specs and using optimal settings → Updating your NVIDIA drivers to the latest version may improve performance. Please try this if possible

  • Game may crash under certain conditions (hopefully resolved, but if it persists, please report via the form below) https://forms.gle/NB88NzwcRNVaWJFp9

  • Desynchronization issues where the game state doesn’t match across players → This often occurs when the host environment is unstable. If possible, please have the most stable player host

  • Crashes when enabling FSR (e.g., when changing quality presets) → If FSR causes crashes in your environment, please avoid quality presets and adjust settings manually. FSR has been confirmed to work on GPUs listed in the minimum specs, but results may vary by system

  • Other minor bugs may occur when using the reconnect function
