ER Main Menu Icon System

System is a menu that allows the player to adjust the settings for their game experience. What options are available differs depending on the platform. For example, PC has additional sections deticated to Graphics and Keyboard and Mouse settings, meanwhile console platforms have more options in the Network settings than PC, namely being able to toggle voice-chat in-game and being able to switch between what kind of player-names are displayed during multiplayer. PlayStation in particular also has additional settings regarding motion controlls.
