Bug: Exploding Submarine

• On all versions of Red Faction except Dash Faction, if your framerate is high (60+) when the crane releases the submarine, it will be instantly destroyed. It's highly recommended that you play the game with Dash Faction to avoid this bug (as well as countless other severe bugs).
