While the latest patches have made it drastically smoother to play on "high", I have notice an increased crashing of the game now. Fun times.
Follow along with the video below to see how to install our site as a web app on your home screen.
Note: This feature may not be available in some browsers.
what I did to finally get the game to run smooth:
- download the Worse Mod that has the newest patch files + worse mod together (google)
- All settings on Ultra
- then change textures to 'High'
- Change Anti-Aliasing to 'Temporal SMAA'.
- Overclock my memory on my GPU a bit more than I had (6700+)
With all that done I have yet to not have the game run smooth as butter. Also I am using the latest nVidia drivers.
Now if I could only make the game fun......

How much single player stuff is in the Season Pass? Kinda want to try the Bad Blood DLC, but I NEVER play the online stuff. I could get a buddy to do some CO-OP mission with me but I didn't really see much of that in the base game.

The Bad Blood DLC seems really fun so far. had to stop and help a buddy setup his new Sennheiser PC 350 SE headphones. Otherwise I'd be rolling through it right now!
I'll be playing it tonight. I have much hope that I'll have blast with it.
Better character for one.
T-Bone is so much more of a man's man than Aiden ever was. At one point in the DLC, Aiden is referred to as childlike. I wanted to hug the writer at that point.
So, the game is on sale right now on steam. Is it worth getting or are there still problems performance-wise. I stayed away until now. Thanks!
Could be hit or miss. I was playing the game initially on my rig with 4GB 680's SLI'ed and the performance sucked. FPS was fine, but I got shuddering that was so bad the game was borderline unplayable. Driving was a chore.
After switching to playing on a rig with a single 980, performance was just fine. I never went back to explore what the problem was. Could have been issues with the install... could have been SLI... I don't know. Performance wise, the two computers are almost identical. SLI is my guess, but I can't say for sure.
