Dead Island: Riptide Definitive Edition Tips

VSync Recommendation—24.0.5

VSync doesn’t affect game performance but impacts control responsiveness:

- **Off**: Offers faster, snappier gameplay with better control, especially during fast action. Occasional screen tearing may occur.
- **On**: Eliminates screen tearing for smoother, visually stable gameplay, but slightly sluggish mouse responsiveness reduces control precision.

**Recommendation**: For faster, more responsive controls, keep **VSync Off**, but expect occasional visual artifacts. For smooth visuals over control sharpness, choose **VSync On**.

Pick your poison! :D

**Note:** These were tested and confirmed to work specifically with version 24.0.5 on my setup. However, future updates to the game or CrossOver may introduce changes that could alter the effects, making this less applicable in later builds.
