What works
Singleplayer.
What does not
Accessing NETRICSA might sometimes cause the game to stop drawing frames. If this happens, just return to the game, and press your quick save key, and restart the game.
I have also reliably experienced an issue with the game not receiving keyboard input after resuming the game.

Additional Comments
Ran at Ultra with my GTX 970 no issue. Though I was warned about having outdated drivers (due to a Wine bug which is linked here). This is a non-issue.

The game can only be installed using Wine 1.1.34 or newer.
However it's recommended to use the latest Wine version to install it without doing anything.
To install the game on older versions you'll have to bypass the "Error 53" problem.
Use the patch from the following link: bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=24845
Then compile Wine and run the game.
