*Might be lagging but can be quite stable *Good if not, one of the best in terms of graphics *Good, very easy to master
Steam *Unstable to a degree
  • May take more time to load/download files than desktop and Microsoft App combined
  • Slow/moderate installment
  • Often glitchy, quite known for it
*Good and stable *Good if not, one of the best in terms of graphics *Good, very easy to master
Microsoft App *Stable
  • Quite fast at loading/downloading files
  • Unfortunately, it's often prone to be the last PC-Variant to be updated
  • Might experience lagging during gameplay
-to test- *Good, much better than the mobile app but inferior to the Desktop version
  • The ctrl +/- shortcuts to toggle the debug camera do not work
*Good, the same as the Desktop app
Mobile App *Stable
  • Quite fast at loading/downloading files
  • Unfortunately, it's often prone to be the last Device to be updated
  • Moderate/fast installment although that depends on the mobile space
  • Can experience glitches
*Good, one of the best in terms of MMO however, it displays lesser players *Less quality, models are prone to have texture and/or model glitches or look outright wonky *Harder to master, can be quite tank-ish and slippery all at once

*Stability of connection: experiencing server connections time out, or game crashes.
