So.in short.for me, disabling all cutscenes from the game itself (by renaming the video folder) and using VLC to play the cutscenes did the trick. I did find that at higher resolutions the game is much darker (and changing the brightness didn't help), but that just added to the feel of the game.

I could then change resolution and settings to my heart's content. This caused the game to just not play cutscenes and go straight to the game. To address this (which worked into the cutscene fix I mentiond above), I renamed the "Videos" folder to something else (in my case, it was "videosa"). Not great, and it's a hassle, but see more detail below.įor me, if I changed the resolution, I would lose all sound once a cutscene tried playing. I elected to do the following: I skipped the flickering cutscenes then used an external video player to watch the cutscenes (VLC player works nicely and the cutscenes are located in the games "video" folder). That worked to fix the cutscenes, but then the game itself crashed (and changing compatibility didn't help). Some folks have reported that the game crashes or loses sound if you increase the resolution over a certain point.įor the first one. You *can* address it, but some of the solutions to fix that will break the game itself during play.Ģ) resolution. For the record, I've got an i7-6700k with an AMD R9-390 video card and 16 GB of RAM.ġ) filckering cutscenes. If not, there's a few common glitches that others have noted. It's not a perfect balance, but the game is working (with some issue).įirst: if you try running it in Windows 10 and it works out of the box, then great. I worked on it for a couple of hours today, and found a "balance". I got my copy from Ubisoft, but it looks like the issue with gameplay are the same. If you or others are having problems, you're not alone.
