Must Haves

Summary - A short, clear summary of the issue, this is the title assigned to the ticket.
Description - As detailed a description as you can provide on the nature of the issue, this can be supplemented with screenshots or video footage of the issue. But it must be clear what the problem is before it can be escalated.
Player.log - This is the output of the game's log files and includes useful information for troubleshooting problems not readily obvious. Included in output from Debug Tool.
- This may be skipped if you can provide reliable information on the nature of the issue and perhaps replication steps / screenshots.

Should Have

Screenshot - A screenshot showing the issue in situ. Sometimes this may not be possible. A screenshot of the state of the game is included in a Output from the Debug tool.
Save File - A save file generated with the issue present. The easiest way to get this is via output of the Debug Tool.
Player.Profile - The file which includes the player's current progress. This is included in the Debug Tool's output.

Supporting Info

Replication Steps - If the player is able to replicate the issue themselves then step-by-step instructions to do that would be incredibly useful. It is worth asking the player if they've been able to replicate the issue for this reason.
Video Footage - Many bugs are not easily explained in a screenshot or in description so seeing a video of the issue may help to identify the issue and the nature of the problem
System Specification / DXDiag - Generated report which details the user's System specification. See DX Diag Instructions
