Messaggio originale di Saint Andrew:

I suggest that anyone who is even remotely serious about potentially fixing issues with their PC’s while gaming and outside of it, try my suggestion above and let me know your results. I am completely unapologetic about being unhelpful earlier by the way, but I’ve decided to help in ways the fools on Reddit and Steam can not, AFTER my coffee. Consider it a gesture of good will for the Rainbow Six community that I love so much, because if I didn’t say I love everyone Ubisoft would ban me so quickly my head would spin because anything other than love isn’t inclusive enough. Thanks!

Hey, Sir i was getting 100-90 fps before the patch now im getting 80-60 sometimes in 54-50 in low settings my system is:

ryzen 3 2200g
1050ti 4gb
xpg 3000mhz 8gb ram
windows 10

Make sure that any settings haven't reset since the last patch, as they did for me. TAA in this game is very necessary for your PC. You have a budget system which is ok, just realize you have to hold back expectations for a consistently high framerate. Move the TAA resolution slider down and move around in-game until you get a feel for the fluidity of movement you’d like and keep an eye on the framerate counter as it should be getting higher as you move down. Compensate for the blurriness of TAA by playing around with the sharpness setting to your liking.

Once you try this let me know, and if nothing changes we can move on from there.

Messaggio originale di R.P.Feynman:

Jager : Give me acog
UBİ : After HALF LİFE 3

Jager just might be getting his ACOG back sooner than you'd think. After all Valve is losing many games from big name publishers. In a few years they'll only have indie Anime trash and their own games if they're not careful.

Messaggio originale di Shekel Hound:

CPU: I7 7700K
GPU: GTX 1080
RAM: G.Skill 16 GB
OS: Windows 10
CPU usage always at 60%-80% while playing. I have never had any issue with any other game. I have played this game 1000+ hours and have never experienced anything like this before this patch.

Basically the same PC as mine, in other words you should be having exactly 0 issues hardware wise. Please download "LatencyMon" for me, run it while you go about your day/next time you play the game. You just hit the green arrow once opened and it will start logging the latency between the software and hardware inside your PC. Sometimes driver updates/lack of driver updates will cause latency issues that manifest themselves as stutter or framerate drops.

You'll be looking for any spikes into the red. If you see any spikes, press the Red Square to stop the logging, then click on the "Processes" tab and look for the Filename with the highest "Hard Pagefaults" count. Write it to me in your reply the highest file name. Also in the "Drivers" tab look for the file with the highest execution time and write it to me. Let me know whenever you're done with that. Thanks!

rainbowsix.exe hard page faults: 94464
tcpip.sys highest execution time: 1.344141 ms.

CPU: I5 8300h
GPU : GTX 1050 ti
Ram : 8GB 2667 Mhz
OS: Windows 10.

I've under volted my CPU for -0.125 & did a small under clock on my GPU, also put my cpu maximum processor rate at 85% for low the temps down to around 68-71 C on GPU and below 66 C on the CPU.

Before Wind Bastion update everything was okay, also it seems Ubi will put the fps issue fix on this monday.

Fine then tell me why my game isn't Launching after this patch. i haven't done anything to my computer other than update siege, uninstall because it wasn't working and then reinstalled it and still not LAUNCHING.

Specs:
CPU Intel core i5 6500 3.2GHz
RAM 8GB DDR3 1867MHz
GPU AMD Radeon R9 M380

Don't tell me to upgrade my computer. it worked perfectly before, it should still work after a 1.9GB Patch.
