yep there is something going on with the CPU optimization...could it be Denovo DRM?

Could be how they implemented it for sure, but there are a few DX12 titles that don't have this issue so maybe they can patch whatever is going on. just didn't know if others were seeing this and hopefully Ubi can look into it.

So installed this game and decided to do the benchmark after changing the graphic setting and what I saw was very weird drops in performance that I don't see in any other games (WD:L, BF5, Witcher3, AC:Ody, Doom, or 3dMark)

i read some thread that processor priority could be an issue and relate to these drops and so i tried "High" setting and what i saw was similar drops but less frequent so i tried "Real-Time" and the results were more favorable.

Am I misunderstanding what the issue is...as it seems to be how ACValhala.exe is spiking the CPU which then creates stutters in performance. 

Thoughts?
