So after the most recent update I've had a lot of graphical glitches. Shadows are all out of whack and the image can go from dark to light. I'll being in a shady area, I turn and then it is extremely bright within the exact same area. The shadows randomly appear. In addition the shadows can be pixelated. Also, objects and NPC's pop in a lot. In addition, some textures have just disappeared. Walls of houses and huts are not there visually, but if I look at the house in a certain way they'll pop in. Was working fine with patch 1.04. Dammit Ubisoft... Also, -skipintro movies (Ads, let's not call it anything else.) doesn't work anymore. More importantly though, is the graphical issues I now have. It is basically unplayable, due to the annoyance.
