Days after the release of "Watch Dogs" to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC, gamers started to complain about the various bugs and issues found in the game. However, Ubisoft assured that it is currently working on a fix.
uPlay is reportedly causing a lot of issues to gamers of the newly-released title, "Watch Dogs". Ubisoft received complaints for its DRM built into their uPlay service mostly from PC gamers. Users vented out their grievances to the Ubisoft forums to express their disappointment and frustration on the bug that disturbed their gameplay, which is now to 94 pages long. This shows that the issue is widespread to multiple players.
It seemed that the bug causes the game to stall at 90% on the loading screen. This issue is caused when a user checks the uPlay store while the service is down. Some users reported that the bug persists even after they closed or reloaded the game. It was found out the bug is affecting a great deal of PSN users playing the game on either the PS4 or PS3. Aside from loading problems, the uPlay service also caused a number of other issues. Some users were unable to access the game on the day of launch.
Unfortunately, the aforementioned issue is not the only bug that "Watch Dogs" gamers have to deal with. A large number of PC gamers, particularly those who were using AMD cards, were reportedly experiencing massive performance issues. The problem was also found even on PCs using high end AMD cards. This suggested that the game was poorly optimized.
"Watch Dogs" was definitely one of the most anticipated titles this year. A lot of fans were disappointed with the number of issues at launch. The game was launched on May 27 for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC. The game will arrive on Wii U later this year.
