    Dis Ubisoft lied about Specs

    Guys I need to ask certain question:

    1. Does the quoted Amd Ryzen 1700x or Intel i5 6700k support DDR3 Ram
    2. U said before launch some 760 card 3 gb for 1080P but now it has been raised to 1070
    3. No Phenom processor support even though earlier ubi games such as Unity and Syndicate ran well and that too same specs as Syndicate.

    Does it mean just to boost the sales you have lied and once launched you have changed the entire specs. Even after lot of consumers trusted you before that last 2 failures you still want to ditch the game buyers.

    I haven't expected such a kind of worthlesness from this huge company.

    I THINK THESE COMMENTS WONT AFFECT YOU SINCE YOU WILL BE BUSY WORKING WITH NEW TITLE.

    Go Guys Enjoy.

    fix your **** Ubi****

    Does this look like I have a **** pc for you? I spent a lot of money to play games like AC and my rig can't even run AC without having 100% usage on my cores..

    Corsair Obsidian 450D
    Dell Ultrasharp U2515H
    Corsair Gaming Strafe RGB
    Logitech G502 Proteus Spectrum RGB
    Logitech G933 Artemis Spectrum
    Asus MAXIMUS VII HERO
    Intel® Core™ i7-4790K @ 4.4 GHz
    Corsair H100i GTX Extreme
    Corsair 16 GB (DDR3-2400) XMP 1.3
    MSI GeForce GTX 1080 GAMING X 8G
    ROG Xonar Phoebus Solo
    Samsung SSD 850 EVO 250GB
    Samsung SSD 850 EVO 250GB
    Samsung SSD 850 EVO 120GB

    Just please remove the protection layers or optimize idk. it's always the same with Ubisoft dude.
    if you like it or not, this game is gonna get cracked soon. shame I spent money for a game what
    even can't run decent. I'm getting like 100% usage on my cores when I'm in a city or a place where
    is a lot of movement. Last time I buy something from Ubisoft. I even bought a wireless adapter for my
    xbox controller to play this game comfortable. the f#ck you guys doing seriously.
    can you please fix this??????

I won't be able to test the game myself until the SLI profile is released, but from the varying reports I'm seeing on both Ubi's forums and Steam forums, plenty of folks with 6000 and 7000 series i7 CPUs are seeing crazy high CPU utilization even on lower settings and resolutions - you said on the Steam forums that your testing indicates the DRM is not causing the high CPU utilization, so what else could it be? It's certainly not the game itself or the console versions would be having the same issues and that leads me to the big question -

    The thing that's causing the big hang up here for most people is this - the CPU and GPU in the consoles are light years behind even mainstream gaming rig PCs these days, so if they can "manage" a struggling 30fps with their ultra low end hardware, then gaming rig PCs that have significantly more powerful processors, GPUs, and memory capacities should be able to handle the same resolution at MUCH higher framerates without issue as well as at much higher image quality, yet people are seeing extraordinarily high CPU utilization at aforementioned similar resolutions, and this is leading to inconsistent or just outright low framerates, creating bottlenecks that prevent the CPU from feeding the GPU as needed. SOMETHING is eating excessive CPU on the PC version that doesn't seem to be there on the console version.

    Thanks in advance.
    Put simply, the configurations of console hardware have very little variation between them, making it easy for developers to optimize performance on the fixed environments. Conversely, PC has a high amount of variation within their hardware configurations, with hundreds of parts that can easily be mixed and matched to create a gaming PC. This can lead to possible issues that are difficult to pinpoint without the assistance of players submitting their game files and system information to our support team to investigate.

    Appreciate the response -

    Semi-separate topic question - do you have ANY semblance of an estimation on SLI functionality? I mean at this point I'll take just knowing if it's going to be the month of November, December, etc. ? Reason I ask is if you think it's going to be months rather than days/weeks, I'm going to go play all the AC games again in order which I've been itching to do for a while and then come back to this game in 6 or so months to see what state it's in and consider purchasing at that point.

    Thanks.

    @UbiJurassic

    How can I submit the file to the support team? I think I'm 20 hours into the game and there haven't been one single gaming session where I haven't tried to fix things. I think I'm done with the game for now until the next patch, it's just too frustrating and today has been particularly painful to play. Sttuttering everywhere, in places that were fine just yesterday. Good thing I didn't buy the season pass, I would be pissed if I did.

    Ubi Support is largely a joke amongst those of us who are hardcore PC gamers. The majority of regular PC gamers have likely already restarted, or disabled this or that, gone into the BIOS, disabled OCing, or done any # of PC troubleshooting recommendations long before they jump into the long slog of a back and forth with an Ubi Support rep. The one time I had to deal with Ubi Support took 3 weeks to resolve, and I resolved it myself.

    This game has been out a week and the CPU utilization issue has not even been acknowledged directly by Ubisoft. You're right, the consoles have similar architecture, so optimization is easy for the most part (except with AC Unity). Many PC players are also smart enough to go into process explorers and the like to see exactly whats causing CPU usage to spike so crazily, and every test points to the insane DRM your company is employing on this game. This is counter-intuitive and only creates more animosity especially when its not acknowledged. You have had plenty of games come out in the past 2 years that have run well from the start on variable configs (i.e. Ghost Recon Wildlands) , but not this one.

    You point to consoles having similar architechture, yet other PC developers with and without the cache of Ubisoft are able to optimize and protect their games effectively without creating animosity with such blatant anticonsumer practices and the refusal to acknowledge a problem that your product is the cause of.

    If you follow this link, it will walk you through how to get the files you will need to send and then, at the bottom, tell you how to send them to the support team. If you do make a ticket with them, please be sure to let them know any troubleshooting steps you have already tried so that they can work forward from there.
