Test your game
you have got to be kidding me?
genuinely, i appreciate the post - BUT THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE
a user should never have to tweak the registry to get a game to play...
War Thunder and Insurgency sand storm work perfectly fine - its the game that has issues and its the developers responsibility to fix these......not the user to tweak the registry....
@HeroCllass Thats not correct , with respect. its your EAC that causes issues ! you can leave registery steps, do the other steps !
Thank you for your reply
All that should be done, is the "repair" click on the game - and the game should fix it
i should have not have to do these extra steps.
it is the game that is the issue - it makes no difference if the game uses 3rd party software..
new patch
still not working =(
