I had a nice surprise when I first played it - I played with Nvidia Surround turned on. All was looking great until I came across the door with the gun jammed into it. There were no hints displayed, nothing I pressed worked and I tried fiddling around for a few minutes, running up and down the train.
So, giving up, I looked online for how to get past the door. I quickly found that everyone using Nvidia Surround was having the same issue and the workaround was to go to Windowed mode. Full screen over three monitors, for some reason, either disables the on-screen hints or makes them hidden.
My use of 5760x1080 was a tad short-lived, however, when I got to the first (real) mission; it laggeed like a pig. It's SLI for me from then on.

Is that a driver issue or game bug?
