AC Unity Flickering Issue
So I recently purchased AC Unity and everything was running great until I got to this one part of the game then it started flickering like crazy. My gpu and cpu temps seem to be fine so I don't think it is hardware related, and I have my drivers all updated.

Here is a video I recorded of the issue https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQm9rdkbCu8&feature=youtu.be

My Specs
Windows 10 64 bit
Nvidia Graphics Driver 353.62
Corsair H100i cooler
I7 4790k @ 4.4ghz
Gigabyte Z97X-UD5H-BK
Corsair Vengeance ddr3 32gb @1600mhz
GTX EVGA 780 6gb
Intel 730 SSD 480gb
Crucial M4 SSD 128gb
Western Digital black HDD 3tb
Western Digital Green HDD 1 tb

It's a driver problem. It happens inside the Helix Rift missions right? Try 347.88 or below.

I seriously doubt Ubisoft or Nvidia would lift a finger to fix this issue.

It's the same issue as this one:

I have to revive this old post to say "Thanks!" for this suggestion.

I thought the flickering was some idiotic idea they implemented for the Bridge/Rift missions, but when I noticed the YouTube artifact walkthrough for Belle Epoque didn't have the same flickering, it dawned on me that maybe it wasn't by design and could be fixed! That led me to this thread.

After getting two migraines from the Bridge missions, and symptoms starting as soon as I began Belle Epoque, bumping down to 347.88 was a lifesaver for me.

Much appreciated!

Well I have 376.33 and it is NOT fixed. Pathetic they don't fix and support their game.
i have 378.66 and it's not fixed at all :(

381.65 on a GTX 1060 here, still occurs in all of the Rift sidemissions. "The way it's meant to be played", eh?

I just recently started playing Unity and came across this problem too. Upgrading to the latest drivers (384.76) seemed to resolve it for me.
