No crashing here at all only time I had crashing was on release and using DX12 I switched to Vulkan and its been perfect.

Any tips for best settings, default frame rate is low!
1080ti, 3440*1440.
DX12 or Vulcan?

I'd just suggest setting the slider to medium at that res on that card.
AA is an absolute killer, so run with TSAA instead.
Great settings on page 116. That is if we are on the same page... If you get what we I mean

Are you talking about this post? I'll give that a try, thanks.
Thanks! I have a GTX 1070. I'm currently using these settings:
Edit: @imginy @physichull @Strudders I had to reupload the video, so the ones listed in your replies are no longer working.
The Hardware Unboxed settings are too much for my 1070 which struggles even running at a decent overclock, I've had to use a combination of their settings and the settings recommended by Joker which gives me much smoother gameplay and still looks stunning.
I have put my settings on a Google Docs spreadsheet

Running this same card and have a constant 60 FPS at ultra settings using DX12 , turn of GRASS ! its a killer and is not needed and doesn't make much difference to the game look , also make sure Water is on Medium settings you dont need that on ultra , Everything else can pretty much go on max settings , TAA Max ect.

Are you referring to grass shadows or grass LOD?

Using the hardware unboxed settings I cant even lock 60fps at 1440p. And 1080 looks terrible so its 4k 30 for me.

I usually let gsync do it's thing, but this seems to be one of those games where gsync doesn't really work. I've locked out to 60fps, vsync on (in-game) and triple buffering enabled.
Much, much smoother.
Much, much smoother.

Agreed, gsync works perfectly on my 1070 and 32" at 1440p. Vysnc off in game, as normal.

It's poorly optimised.

@Doogles
It can be breath taking. I don't think it's poorly optimised (in the way you mean) but it did suffer from very annoying pauses and stutters on release for certain configs as it didn't balance the load across cores for certain processors, e.g. mine, 4690k. That's been patched out and my game runs flawlessly and it's the most visually impressive game I've seen. Great story with some real laugh out loud moments, elements of pathos, and of camaraderie, and of place ... or perhaps of time. It's a masterpiece.
e: @String, disagree per my above comments.

I haven't had a chance to absorb the story yet, so looking forward to that.
I know the game looks great, but on ultra it's hitting around 30-40 FPS in a landscape that's 90% static snow. In don't think that's the best optimisation.

Snow? You're on the 2 hour intro tutorial by the sounds of things. It's a massive pain in the arse and isn't indicative of the 'proper' game.
Ultra is huge overkill and there's quite a lot of comment online about how demanding the game is when you push it to the max. There are many guides out there, some posted earlier, which will get you 90% of the effect (made up figure, sue me) at Medium/High/sometimes Ultra (where beneficial) without having to go Ultra on everything. The terms and definitions (med, high, ultra etc) are not common for this game compared to its peers (where you might go Ultra because that's the best and isn't generally punitive).
