Does anyone know what graphical changes were made in the past 2-3 weeks that would result in all the visual effects and AA looking terrible in my game? I haven't altered my graphical settings since I had the same issue after they changed the way AA works back in the Halloween event of 2018.

I've not been playing regular Siege in years, only doing the Training Mode mission once a week while pondering getting back proper into the game. It's always looked the same until just recently where I now get significant amounts of noise around dust clouds, impacts, sparks, explosions, etc, and corners are incredibly jaggy.

I'm looking for the screenshots that aren't in the folder I've assigned because Uplay has *for the third time* decided to change the folder locations I set from my D drive to the default C drive location. This change seems to coincide with the new disgusting visuals.

I'm going to try reinstalling Ubisoft Connect for the fourth time to see if it actually remembers the drive location it's supposed to be putting things, though I doubt it will fix the graphical issues. When I do, I'll be able to post what visual settings I've been using for years.

@marshmallow_fox Hey! Sorry to hear that you are experiencing these visual issues and thank you for these images they are most helpful.

There have been no changes of note to the game that would cause this behaviour. Have you tried updating your GPU drivers? You can find how to do this and many other helpful troubleshooting steps to try here.

You also mentioned some issues with Ubisoft Connect not saving screenshots, can you try running Ubisoft Connect in Admin mode and seeing if the issue still happens.

If these issues still continue please let us know.

Thank you.

Hey there.

That's odd. I don't believe this issue has been reported to us previously. If you notice this still occurring after enabling admin privileges please let us know. Wherever possible we would always recommend installing both the launcher and the games to the same drive, based on your description the D drive might be the most suitable location.
