    Media groups now commenting on FC4 Stutter.

    It shows you something is wrong when media groups like Euro Gamer and Kotaku start reporting on the horrendous stutter in games -

    "The PC version suffers from regular micro-stutter"

    Even with a GTX 980 in play, we still see frame-rate drops as we move around the landscape - with 50ms micro stutter.

    +1 for wanting stutter fixed... ruins the game ALL MODES.
    PVP with stutter is unplayable.
    co op and single player are not enjoyable.

    8 days of silence from ubi on this matter so far.

    Eurogamer final assessment kinda says it all; doesn't it? And........................they didn't even mention the widely reported (and experienced by me) significant worsening of reported shadow/flickering issues in the north portion of the game world.

    The thing I find strange most is that it seems Ubisoft are completely ignoring the issue - if they would at least acknowledge the stutter issue that would have to relive tensions somewhat.

    That said the mouse issue is the top priority fix in my humble opinion

    I would like to see more of a focus on issues like this by the gaming press/media. They should come down hard on the publishers for releasing broken games. It should be reflected in the review scores and consumers should be warned not to buy the game. This will force publishers to release complete games that have been optimized and gone though proper QA. The current trend of releasing broken games is unacceptable. Ubisoft is the worst of all publishers in this regard.

    More info is needed as soon as its availiable if you could please keep us updated.. The lack of info and announcements is more frustrating than the bug at this point.

    Has the stutter been replicated and seen in house yet?
    If you could find out the answer to this question for us it would go a long way to calming the community, for a day or so at least... lol

    Thanks for responding. Do you know if the devs are actively pursuing the particular issue that is mentioned in the articles and that people have been discussing on the forums? It would be nice to know for sure if they are looking into the severe stuttering problems more deeply than just a general performance issue, because it seems like there is something specifically and demonstrably broken with the way the game is running right now.

    This would never happen, the media is as Greedy if not Greedier than UBI and they do not want to loose all the revenue from the Ads Companies like UBI, EA & Activision pay to the media. Why do you think that all you see in the news is sad, death and negativity... that is what sells? nobody cares about the truth, lemmings only care to know when is the next title going to be out and don't care whether it will be out unfinished
