What works
Game runs stable and all game mechanics work.
What does not
There are many graphical glitches:
- Changing the brightness/contrast changes it for the whole desktop, and it stays after closing the game. Opening nvidia-settings resets it.
- Parts of the terrain are positioned at incorrect altitudes.
- Building doesn't progress as it should. Instead of "growing" individual parts of buildings suddenly appear.
- Shadows don't work.
While the game is technically playable, the broken terrain makes it a less joyful experience.
Workarounds
What was not tested
-Multiplayer, but that should work according to earlier tests.
-Custom maps

Additional Comments
Runs pretty fast on a Nvidia GTX 650 TI. Cutscenes with camera movement showed a big frame-drop.
