Known Issues

Player may observe some momentary dips in frame rate during intense combat or in specific situations but do not affect gameplay in a significant manner
When quitting to the main menu, additional enlarged menu UI may appear in headset view momentarily
Hands and weapons may momentarily go through or touch UI elements in game
Grenade trajectory trail may not display properly when pointing straight ahead
Players may observe some text overlap or overflow on certain UI elements
Player progression can become blocked if attempting to activate the Delta Main Elevator in Delta Labs 1 before restoring power to the reactor core – this is a legacy issue from the original release
