I am loosing out on patience waiting for fixes.
The game takes about 6 minutes to load up and this has been going on for days with no update on sight.
I play on a i7, 1080Ti SLI and have frequent frame drops during gameplay, ultimately freezing the game making me have to restart time and time again.
The textures don't always load up properly in various areas of the game, this is what I get playing at 4k resolution.

Now, if this were a one off problem, I would let it go but this is becoming a common occurrence ever since the 16th April Patch. The casual noob developers broke the game more than they fixed anything.
The other common issue I face is while teleporting or fast traveling to any place in the game. This too is a common occurrence, happens at least a few times a day. I would use fast travel but never get there. The loading circular loop on the left side would not budge and even if i wait 20 minutes, it would stay the same, I can't cancel it or do anything else except having to start the game again which takes 6 minutes or more to load up.
The other problem is constant stuttering and freezing during combat. I thought my system should not have these problems, I have this high end system with two 1080ti graphic cards but I am wrong. I thought it could be a problem with 4K resolution with all settings on ultra, so I toned everything down to medium to see if performance improves. Just to reiterate, I had no such problems before the patch on 16th April, 2019. I was playing everything without any issues. I did not have to tone down my settings. I was fully dialed up. Now, even if I play at 1080p resolution and all settings on medium with minimum FPS of over 120, the problem still stays. I look up my processor and it's under 50% usage but the game stutters and freezes leaving me no other option but to restart it again.
I have more time invested trying to log in than in the actual game the last few days (maybe a bit of exaggeration but that's how it feels).
Now, problems happen but so do fixes, the developers run to fix some insignificant loot bug and in the process break the game's stability entirely. It's been days and there is nothing about fixing server stability and game breaking features that impede a consumer's enjoyment. They would only act in haste if someone was exploiting some inconsequential loot mechanism but everything else can go to **** for all they care.
The Support, I have never seen a worse support system than Ubisoft. You can write a ticket this year and maybe, get a response sometimes next year ( it took them 20 days or more to respond once and another time they did not even care to respond to one of my tickets. I try and call them up and I am the 600th customer in cue and the estimated response time is 5 days on that call( if I tone down the apparent exaggeration, I was 80 in cue and waited for 200 minutes on a call just to give them a piece of my mind but eventually had to keep down the phone for having been on wait for 230 minutes).
It appears that a 1.3 billion company does not even have one full time employee for support services. Support of any kind is non existent with Ubisoft.
This concludes my rant.
Ubisoft, you are like **** sticking at the end of a stick. Shamelessness at its best.
There’re just too many things to fix. It’s going to take a whole year. Here is why “just give us time”, “it’s only been a month, game development takes time, you gotta wait” simply doesn’t work.
I will tell you this, this game is also going to go through a serious content draught since apparently there is no content ready.
The Division 1 updates were obviously cut contents upto patch 1.5. through 1 year anniversary. But here in The Division 2 the game is simply still under development, live. There is no cut contents.
They were barely finishing up all the npc hair in the beta, do you remember? The wait is going to take even much longer than The Division 1. I can see that. I might be wrong but If I’m right, there is no The Division 3 nor any more Ubisoft live service game I’m buying ever again. After this game, we’re going to be very close to 10 years of unfinished game and complaining, complaining, complaining and and bunch of lies. It’s gotta stop at some point. It should’ve been this game. I’m very unsatisfied and so much closer to boycotting all full priced live service games that I can’t even own even if I paid $100.
You lost me here. game has not been out that long and you are "losing" your patience already. You clearly dont understand what goes into a game of this size. But thank you for telling us how "loose" you are.Originally Posted by TheDeathlyRifle Go to original post
It's not just putting a stamp on it. They are very happy to take the profits from sales but when it comes down to support they shrug their shoulders. 'It wasn't us', and blame it on the others. They should also take responsibility and do some checks before they enable games and updates for download by their customers. Nobody bought the game directly from Massive or Red Storm.Originally Posted by Rogue_Agent_JPN Go to original post
