Below are some FAQs and known issues for the final DLC chapter for Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus. FAQ and Known Issues: Release Timing: The Deeds of Captain Wilkins will unlock at 7pm ET, March 12 for Steam users. ​ ISSUE: How do I access the DLC? RESOLUTION: The DLC content can be accessed by selecting “SAS Machine” on the main menu, or from the actual SAS machine located in the vault on the Evas Hammer submarine. Both methods require the player to have progressed to the part of the Main Game where the player can freely explore the Submarine Hub (after Chapter 2 - Section F). ​ ISSUE: All Platforms – DLC3 Mission – Kodiak Island: Player can activate cannon aiming lever while in a button press animation, causing a control lock. RESOLUTION: This is a known issue with that can only be recovered by loading a previous save. When the player is tasked with destroying the Super Cannons on Kodiak Island using two different Gunstations (Alpha and Beta), there is a lever that the player must use to rotate the Gunstation, and a button the player must press to fire the Gunstation. If the player activates the rotation lever during the fire button pressing animation, it can cause the player to be control locked. ISSUE: When Alt+Tabbing while in a SAS Combat Simulation, the game does not pause. RESOLUTION: This is a known issue that is inconsistent with the main game campaign. We do not officially support Alt+Tab. ISSUE: Unplugging a monitor while playing in fullscreen on Windows 7/8.1 will cause the title to crash. RESOLUTION: If losing connection to the monitors is a likely scenario for the user, it is recommended that they play in windowed or borderless windowed mode. ISSUE: Resolution does not scale properly when changing from fullscreen to windowed mode when using multiple monitors. RESOLUTION: This issue is resolved by exiting and relaunching the application.
