Additional Comments
Packages what I have installed using winetricks (Maybe not many of them are necessary to run the game). - amstream.dll - comctl32 & comctl32ocx - devenum - dinput8 - dirac - directmusic - directplay - dsound - ffdshow - physx - vcrun (all) - xact & xact2010 I use a patched executable to remove security protections. In winecfg (libraries) the box are empty. No DLL overrides. in the previous version of wine, required dinput8 in native mode for the cursor to work well. And various DLL more. It's fixed. The game is 100% playable.

Bug # | Description | Status | Resolution | Other apps affected |
In general, game inherits most of bugs from Dead Space 1 (engine is almost the same).
Use wine-1.3.6 or revert commit f0b0c1b1dddf606177651deb45c0afd6259076aa as described in RegressionTesting wiki page
For NVidia users:Requirement for winetricks d3dx9_36 was reported at least twice. fglrx users don't need it due to, probably, some effect not working
Workarounds for known bugs:Switch off "Decals". See Generic instructions, part 5
To navigate in menu use arrows to control selection, Enter on non-submenu option is "accept", ESC - "cancel". Or you may try to guess mouse position watching at highlights.
Connection to EA is quite fragile - few glitches and it goes down (and no reconnect was ever seen). Just restart game, load near shop and enter it instantly - it will work.
