Yeah, it started working for me too on Uplay. Nearly a half hour later. Now to DL these high res textures.

None of my Join DedSec dlc is showing on my Uplay DLC section. Dangit
I skipped through most posts in this thread and haven't read the Nvidia article, but this seems to be extremely demanding for no good reason? A GTX 1070 to hit a locked 60FPS on Ultra settings at 1080p? What is this game doing that's so technically demanding to warrant such performance? If I recall, The Division ran mostly stable 60FPS at 1080p on Ultra settings on a GTX 1060.
*Ultra settings exclude HFTS for both games.

Yay, it unlocked after I verified my files, don't know if that helped but it might be worth trying.
Yeah they look a little better, still be intresting to see what sacrifices it needs to hit 60fps, hell 50 fps locked will do as my KS7000 has a 50hz mode, think 4k is out of the question though lol.

Guys/gals, go to where it's installed, go into the BIN folder and just open the Watchdogs2 exe from there, BOOM works! I just happened to go to see what APPID it was for launching with steam big picture and it worked.
I just did - US Midwest. Downloading the High Res texture pack now, going to take awhile on my slow internet connection. Probably just going to wait and give the game a shot sometime tomorrow.

I'm getting smooth as fuck 60fps on a 660ti with temporal filtering turned on, I'm kind of shocked.

hoping steam fixes the high res texture pack download soon.. I'd really like to have that..

TXAA is a no no on my 980ti, unless you want to play at 30fps with frame skipping. Use SMAA or Temporal Filtering which also enables MSAAX2 by default, you will get MUCH better performance.

Nope and it's driving me mad, I need it

Must be an issue with it because I couldn't get steam overlay to work. FRAPS worked though.

the UPlay overlay settings has an option for in game FPS display.
Shift + F2 - Settings - Display FPS counter in game.
Same here, not working. No idea what kind of FPS I'm getting. Feels smooth but would really like the overlay itself to work.

the steam overlay is working for me, but afterburner is not.

Can you take screenshots? I wasn't able while in big picture mode.
Robobandit
Member
yes, I can. I took one earlier.. but I don't use big picture mode.
edit - they fixed the high res texture download on steam. downloading them now.. 5.6GB
I've been playing for an hour. Everything on ultra (even for the options that go higher), no SF fog, hbao+, TXAA2 (no post AA, the TXAA alone cleans things up really good) @1080p. Flawless 60fps so far. It seems very well optimized. They have to know this engine in and out by now.. GTX 1080, 4790k.

I uninstalled it too (just now), but I got a steam refund because I wasn't pleased with the performance. Might buy it again some other time when it receives additional patches/improvements.
Good. It was about time.
Dang I can't get steam overlay to show up and I wanted to try the steam controller in this.

Hmmm, the game isn't recognizing my Xbox One controller at all, even after restarting a few times and making sure everything is updated. Never had this issue with any other game before, but this is my first U-play game. Has anyone come across this? I really hope I'm a moron and missing something obvious here... I hope

Native? No
Temporal? Yes
On my 1070 I'm able to hit 4k(temporal)/30 and 1440p(temporal) + 1.2 pixel pixel density/60 with the following settings.
Geometry: V.High
Extra Detail: 0%
Terrain: Ultra
Vegetation: Ultra
Textures: Ultra
AF: Ultra
Shadows: V.High
Headlight: 2 cars
Water: High
Reflections: High
Screenspace Reflections: OFF
Fog: On (not encountered yet)
DoF: On
Motion Blur: On
Bloom: On
AO: HBAO+
AA: SMAA
The game looks good.
4k (downsized to1440p, original 4k screen capture was 17mb, too big for abload)
1440p + 1.2 pixel density

Not sure how to help, but the Xbox One controller (wireless) is working fine for me. Sorry, man. Make sure it's on and connected before starting the game, maybe?
Ubi finally unlocked the Steam version of the texture pack about 45 minutes ago... 17 hours after the game released for select Asian territories. That is some genuinely stunning ineptitude.
Edit: 5.6GB download.
Cheers. I'll update my OPs once I'm at my PC.

yeah...I can confirm Afterburner and RTSS not working with this game
why would that happen?
why would that happen?
You know what, my aging rig runs this okay.
i5 2500K @ 4.4
2GB GTX 770
8GB RAM
Running off a Samsung SSD (The reason I have the game at all)
Set it to high, turned on temporal filtering, and I've been between 45-60 at all times. Now, normally I'd be upset about being below 60 at all, but the game looks good and the motion blur seems well implemented enough to not cause me to hate being so low FPS-wise.
That being said, I can't wait to get my 1070 at Christmas.

Game runs well on 6900k 1080 sli @ 1440p. About 80-90 fps (Gsync) 80% usage on each gpu, 375.96 driver. 20mg Indica.
By far the superior version. Played a few missions on PS4 pro already.

for anyone that has a GTX 1080 how many FPS are you getting at 1920 x 1080 - ultra and 1.25 pixel density?
re_fan1996

I double checked that and it's all working. I am using the Bluetooth version though so maybe that's it. I'll try plugging straight in and see. Thanks tho!
