I have to say I have noticed an improvement since your last patch. It is not right, but I have found the game to be playable. The game loads quicker and the startup pictures before playing your chosen character are much smoother.The game does still hang, but seldom and not for as long. I changed to Direct X 11
I have:
Intel Core i4770k
Nvidia Geforce GTX 1070
8gigs dual DDR3 Memory
Places where it is inclined to hang occasionally :
While editing the Anno Chronicle
While clicking on Happy Farmer/ Worker's Happiness/ needs
While using transfer menu between ship and harbour.
That is what I have noticed so far while playing a new game.
I doubt playing one of my old games will be as successful.
Hope this helps.
