Widescreen resolution
- Many common resolutions are not available on the options menu.
Edit DefaultEngine.ini[2] |

High frame rate
- Forces standard V-sync on regardless of in-game setting, which prevents Adaptive V-sync, causes drops to 60FPS almost constantly (aka stuttering).
- Game's physics will malfunction at high frame rates, recommend capping below value to 62 (i.e. 60FPS).
