Battery Performance:Made Changes To Improve

set refresh rate to 50. set tdp limit to 5 watts

Significant Bugs:Yes

game will stutter constantly if you set the framrate limit to half the refresh rate.

Runs perfect! I tried enebling half rate shading but it did not reduce power draw so thats not worth it.

Input:Responsiveness

Could not get controller emulating an Xbox 360 controller using sc-controller to work even though steam detected it and showed it as plugged in in steam input.

Performance:Slight Performance Problems

In some areas the game stuttered when I dove, might be an issue with an early version of the game
