Assassin’s Creed Syndicate Patch 1.4 Improves Performance
John Williamson / 9 years ago
Prior to the release of Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, Ubisoft promised to learn from their previous mistakes and ensure the game was properly optimized across a wide range of hardware configurations. The previous title, Assassin’s Creed Unity was a shambles, and became a source of mockery due to the hilarious bugs, and broken gameplay. Despite Ubisoft’s best assurances, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate didn’t run that well and had some fairly hefty system requirements for high resolutions. Furthermore, the game’s SLI support was terrible and exhibited poor scaling. Thankfully, this has now been resolved in a driver update from NVIDIA which helps users with dual card setups to leverage extra performance.
On another note, Ubisoft has just released patch 1.4 with a raft of performance improvements and enhanced stability. Here is the changelog in full:
