- Updating the driver to the latest version may improve performance (NVIDIA only)
- There may be some delay in unlocking achievements entirely on savegames before or during the Day 1 patch; there may there may be some issues, which can be solved as follows:
a) In case the achievements were not unlocked, although their progress was achieved, it will be necessary to re-execute all the conditions by starting a new game;
b) In the rare case where all achievements have been obtained, but for obtaining them all has not been unlocked achievement “The Motherland Does Not Forget its Heroes”, the problem can be solved simply by starting a new game at the launch of which will occur recalculation data, which will entail the unlocking of an achievement.
