    Frame-rate issues

    I have a Intel Core I5 4460 with GTX 1070 and I put the recommend settings on which is high. I hit 40/60 FPS or more at random times and then it goes down to 20/10FPS most of the time, when I go into a battle scene or when I am driving really fast, it stutters and then I get low FPS.

    I put the graphics up at Ultra and I get the same FPS, with the same stuttering and I get about 30/40FPS when running around, sometimes it hits 60FPS like it did on the first mission of the game.

    I put my graphics down to the lowest settings to check see if it was my hardware, which it isn't. I get round about 30/40 FPS... How do I get less FPS on lowest settings than highest settings and i get more FPS? I don't understand that.

    Sort it out please, thanks.

    Ok Just to make sure

    You said that you checked your hardware... Forgive me for asking, did you check software (graphics driver wise)? Maybe a new update might have screwed things up...

    Yep

    Yeah, I have checked all the software, everything is up to date, the driver and etc, it's up to date... So I'm a little confused why I am still getting bad frame drops...

    Specs?

    Can I get a specs list on your pc. Maybe I can help with the research. (Note: Sometime the latest drivers aren't the best drivers.)

    Have to say I am also having bad FPS problems, I have 1070 and at tutorial everything on Ultra get between 55-30 when I drop quality to high get 60-40 I am at 2k, am going to try 1080p

    Ok even at 1080p with Ultra setting, I am still getting 60-40 at tutorial, not playing until its fixed what a disappointment.

    Can you refund on Ubistore?

    Yeah, I am having the same issues... I am disappointed too... I thought that they'll learn from the past...

    You cannot refund a game that is digital, you'll have to read the legal and agreement about it!

    I messed around with setting I can get solid 60fps at tutorial with these settings.

    Everything Ultra and Extra details at 25% this is at 2560×1440

    Shadows - PCSS
    Ambient Occlusion - SSBC
    Temporal Filtering - On
    Post Process Anti Aliasing - SMAA

    Same issue - gtx 1060

    I downloaded it today and if I use the lowest settings I get 40fps max and then the ultra settings I get a minimum of 25fps so it doesn't matter which settings I put it on I can't get 60fps. I've even overclocked my cpu and gpu but still nothing. specs below

    cpu: AMD fx-8350
    gpu: evga gtx 1060 sc 6gb
    ram: corsair 16gb ddr3 1600
    mobo: asus sabretooth 990fx r2.0
    psu: shaw evo 995 (cancerous & unstable but it's meant to output about 500w)
    1920x1080

    i think there is a small issue with a bottle neck but you might have found a loophole. It might also have to do with the new graphics driver by Nvidia.
