  1. Crashes and freezes45 of 275 (16%)

    6) The game was a pain in the butt to run, as it required a somewhat obscure change in Windows of the hertz sound output to my speakers (of all things!...if I'm recalling correctly) otherwise it would crash at start up.

    I can't even start a match up without the game crashing.

  2. Performance and stutter19 of 275 (7%)

    Then there are the FPS drops, and these are way too frequent.

    Steam review, 23 June 2021 · 19 hours played · 31 readers marked it helpful

    The framerate is all over the place.

  3. Will not launch or install9 of 275 (3%)

    I can't even start a match up without the game crashing.

    EDIT 2022-10-13: Interestingly, restarting Mission 59 can kill the sound, and I had no idea before but this game doesn't run in anything higher than 1280x720.

A further 9 reviews call the game buggy or broken without saying how, which is why they are counted separately rather than assigned to a theme. Counted by keyword across review text, so a review discussing two problems is counted under both. Read the reviews yourself.
