Patching 656MB

I've read on the AC subreddit that some guy got his account suspended using a VPN, but touch wood mine was fine with regular Uplay.. I shall wait and see.

 

[RobotXander]

Wait...we can play in the UK already?

EDIT: I assumed it unlocked tomorrow at 4pm UK time

It officially unlocks in the UK at midnight tonight but as it unlocks at midnight local time, you can holiday in Australia at the moment and unlock

 

[RobotXander]

Ah, I'm with you. Sorry, aware this has prob been discussed more than once

Patching 656MB

Ubisoft Connect just applied this for me too...seem to have a free Sigrdrifumal tatoo set for Eivor amongst other rewards.
That's me all prepped for midnight

 

[Tombstone]

Lunch break from work, so decided to pop to the New South Wales branch of Subway and check out AC Valhalla on my lunch break

 

[eekfek]

good lad ^^^

It runs very well, far better than Odyssey.

 

[RobotXander]

any PC players? Hoping my 2060 Super will be decent at 1440p. WD Legion was running well with Ray Tracing on and everything on high/Very High

 

[Gelly54]

Anyone with a 1070ti (or similar) running 1440p Ultrawide could share your performance experience please

 

[Tombstone]

Interesting...there is an option to make assassinations a guaranteed one-shot. That should please people who dont like the way AC has moved away from going around and assassinating everyone

 

[SS-89]

Haven't loaded the actual game yet but got 70fps on the ingame benchmark maxed out at 1440p on my OC 2080ti.

 

[Tombstone]

Well, my first run of the Benchmark came out at average of 40fps. Might have to tweak a few things down here

Ok trying again with reduced shadows and volumetric clouds settings.... (1440 on a 1070), I seem to recall that volumetric clouds whacked the performance on the other AC titles

 

[SS-89]

Had two random drops to desktop with no error so not a good start...not sure if VPN related so may give it a pass on this until official launch.

All the usual in-game short cuts are there sadly, buy maps, buy treasure locations, buy Legendary armour set locations etc etc Although some of the armour sets look really nice!

3440*1440 1080GTX mix of High to Very High and it's really smooth. Wants me to restart game to change settings higher but I'll fart about with that when I get back home to UK

The shortcuts dont bother me in a single player game. Turning down the volumetric clouds helped my performance, seems that yet again those clouds smack your performance

This gives me hope! Im guessing Freesync or GSync is helping though

Using Uplay+ and VPN worked for a while, in the settings then crashed randomly. I'll wait till midnight.

Same issue, think it is VPN related, I noticed when I did drop to desk with no error it says in the UPLAY client that had a connection issue. Using NordVPN here.
