Hello,
Ive been playing Wildlands normally for like a week and today suddenly it started taking me 90-100% of CPU, lagging and its just unplayable coz it lags every 30 seconds and who knows how is it hurting my CPU.. I dont know what the solution could be but definately it's not something like "turn the priority to low" or "turn off TeamSpeak" or "turn Vsync on/off", "make limit of framerate", "disable one CPU core" and other generic stuff. I have GeForce GTX 980 graphic card, 16GB RAM and i5 6500 CPU.. I dont have any problem with any other game, just this one, consuming all CPU. What is weird that it was doing it in Beta, it started working normally after game release and today it came back to this problem.
Would you have any solution? Since I doubt there was any patch or fix yesterday, then it has to be something weird happening in the PC or I dont know.. really weird!

M8 same issue today around same time (aussie) (2pm gmt+10) been running fine game had issues with slight lag spikes but playable , but now it drops frame rates like crazy was getting 70 fps constant on ultra settings , now in game it goes down to 4 fps and game is unplayable as its a big lag spike . I have checked there has been no new updates on my pc at all other games BF1 forza horizen 3 no issues just wildlands . specs win10 x64 / intel i5 6600k / gtx 1070 strix ROG , 32gb corsair vengeance ram , ssd , typical of ubisoft games always ddramas , after 1.5 patch the game became worse also with nvidia driver meant to be for wildlands . Division all over again ........

Well is it possible something happened globally or Ubisoft did something? My 2 friends were also playing smoothly yesterday and today they experienced the same as me, 90-100% CPU usage with no reason, no computer change or anything, just happened overnight.. I play the game on High settings coz I cant handle Ultra textures but on High it was alright, I had spike like once in few hours just for loading big part of the map or something which is understandable but not every 30 seconds with this CPU usage.. I dont understand since this was in Beta and it disappeared after releasing the game so I was happy and now its back, wtf, Im confused :/Originally Posted by Gr8ssY Go to original post

I just booted up to play today...completely unplayable. Spikes every 20 seconds. Worked fine last time I played. Horrible input lag comes in and I can't control my character. I'll be cruising along at 65 FPS, then it just craps out for 5 seconds...then fine for 20 seconds...craps out again for 5 seconds. Non-stop. It's impossible to play this game. Why can't they get their crap together and fix this? Completely garbage. Every ubisoft game I buy on PC I get screwed due to their inability to optimize properly.

Aliens m8 that's what has done it , prob due for server maintenance or something , like division good for 1 day then craps for 6 .

I'm plagued by the same issues. CPU usage at 90-100% all the time. I have to play medium/high details just so I could reach stable 60 fps. My specs are Intel Core i5-6600K 4,5 GHz, OC'd MSI Gaming GTX 1080, 16GB RAM and the game installed on an SSD. Game just keeps choking due to the 100% CPU usage and my GPU sits at 70% usage with everything at Ultra.

My wife has been waiting to play this with me since it came out, and was excited for this morning. She logged in and had the same issue all of you are speaking about, so she restarted the computer, which caused her computer to download this week's windows 10 update, then updated her Nvidia graphics driver to the newest and logged in....just to have the exact same issue again with 0 change.
The game is unplayable for her, yet for me it is smooth as butter we are systems are twins. Exact same everything, to the letter. I have been playing the game about 8 hours a day streaming it since the day it came out. Why would she be affected and not me?

I see a lot of us are having the same issue TODAY with no reason. Im happy to hear that Im not the only one but I cant understand, I would if there was an update for Wildlands, Windows, Drivers or anything but Windows update was like 2 days ago and it worked + my friends who got the same problem have Win 7 not W10 as me, and I have drivers updated for more than a week, I think thats when the latest update was. It sounds clever that there could be some kind of server problem but Im not sure if server problem would affect user's CPUs? Anyway Im not master of computers so everything could be possible. I hope Ubisoft has someting to say or do about it and that they know the problem..

I should have added, I'm on a 6600k also (at 4.5), 16GB ram, and a 970. Seems to be an i5 issue. Very frustrated though.
