Vulkan will attempt to launch from steam and will cancel the launch after the mini r6 screen comes up. Everything has been reinstalled (steam, uplay and siege (twice)). All my drivers are up to date (GPU, monitor, windows, kbm, you name it). Everything is running as administrator. Temp files are cleared. No background services, only Microsoft services enabled confirmed. Tried messing with .ini game settings file, didn't work so I deleted it, reverified integrity of the files, still nothing. I just don't get it. DX11 works fine, but I heavily prefer Vulkan and can notice the difference.

PC specs

i7-6700k
16gb ddr4
gtx 1080 ftw
3tb of ssd storage

my preferred graphical/ display settings

Very high textures(tried high doesnt work (in reference to vulkan having issues with vram load.))
anisotropic x16
everything else is low or off
anti aliasing t-aa 2x 25 render res/ 55 sharpness

the game was running butter smooth no problem for weeks and all of the sudden, it refuses to launch with every trick in the book. Ubi, pls.

Hey GrossBeat69,

Welcome to the Forums, sorry to hear you're having issues, however thank you for the detailed steps you've already attempted.

When attempting to launch the game have you checked Task Manager to see if the game responds with any activity?

You also noted messing with the .ini file, could you confirm exact what steps you attempted with that file?

What happens:
I am starting the game then the small pre window pops up and after that nothing happens it just closes after 5-10 secs.

What have I tried:
  • Reinstalling the game
  • Starting as Admin
  • and some other stuff I found using Google


My PC:
Intel I7700k
RTX 2070 Super with the latest Driver
16GB DDR4

I would really appreciate if someone could help me.

Best Regards
