In fact, this is Ubisoft&#8217;s standard for open world games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ubisoft historically has been pretty bad about PC optimization for their titles, and it keeps getting worse. Breakpoint still has a number of bugs that have been present since the technical test 2 years ago. Even console players are finding themselves unable to play the game, which is reminiscent of Cyberpunk 2077&#8217;s launch issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ubisoft support typically runs through the standard gamut of canned responses for issues before you can actually get anything new to try, which isn&#8217;t surprising, but it is surprising that they seem to entirely ignore what you&#8217;ve written in your ticket (in my situation I stated that I had already performed the steps I knew that they were going to recommend in order to troubleshoot).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With any luck the major game-breaking issues will be resolved soon, but it has taken a significant amount of time before they would even add them to the issue tracker despite the countless reports from users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For me, the greatest source of irony is how Ubisoft&#8217;s own launcher is the source of my latest issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;ve had any conversations with Ubisoft support, I&#8217;d love to hear what your issue was and whether you got anything different from the canned &#8220;Launch Ubisoft Connect as admin and rebuild your local game files&#8221; response.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I initially reviewed Far Cry 6 I had very few issues aside from the low-quality textures and some rather fast respawn rates in certain areas.
