So ive decided to compile a little list of bugs ive encountered in this pre-alpha release Ubi sold for full price. I know there are already shitton of other post for every bug listed, but since devs obviously dont give a [censored] why should I. From gamebreaking to mostly annoying it is:

• Stuck in Asgard: Stuck during the quest View Above All - after "closing" the door, nothing happens, only quest directions dissapear, i can try to close the door again, move 20 meters, return back, kill newly respawned Jotuns and again try to close the doors, or load old save and avoid this [censored]-fest untill devs actually decide to do something about it
• FPS Drops: After 10-40 minutes of playing (apparently varies according to weather outside) FPS starts spiking down to 8-14. I tried pretty much everything to change it. Nothing helps. Currently the game takes about 30% of CPU, 45% of GPU and incredible 2Gb of ram while it slideshows itself. And no, no background apps., installed on M.2 disc and minimal requirements fullfiled with being more than half-way to recommended.
• Aim freeze: During fights with bosses (and very rarely normal enemies), when I pull out my bow, game freezes mouse movement for 1-2 sec. I can run, shoot, but cannot aim. For a game that places weakspots on enemies backs so you have to dodge and quick-shot them before they turn around, this seems like huge oversight
• Screenshot button randomly crashes the game: nuff said... really...
• Remapping block broke fishing: For convenience ive remapped block/offhand weapon to Right mouse button, which completely bugged fishing. Fishing wants you to aim with RMB before throwing with LMB, but since my RMB is now offhand, instead of aiming my fishing line, i kill random civilian (or a flower). Also couldnt find fishing in Keymap so i cant even change it to different key.
• Sudden mid-air death syndrome: During jump theres a chance you get stuck in midair. After flailing about for few sec (falling animation, while frozen in place), char just die without hitting the ground. Saw it happen to some NPCs and in more annoying parts it happened to Eivor.
• Horse doesnt spawn on call: Sometimes it apparently takes a vacation and wont spawn when i call it. Its nowhere in sight and nowhere on minimap.
• Weird camera placement during cutscenes: as much as i like avantgarde, i dont appreciate looking at ground texture from bellow during some cutscenes. Especially since the mentioned ground is about 20 meters away from where chars should be standing.
• Game doesnt remember helmet visibility setting: I got a nice helmet i want to see it.
• Patch notes are not aligned properly in in-game menu: Patch notes start about 60 cm right off a wall of my room. Problem is my monitor starts about 70 cm right off that wall. You should get those measurements right.
• First treasure map has wrong directions: Well theoretically, if you go East from the Alrekstad, eventually you will arrive to the treasure location on a island WEST of it, but in reality theres too many invisible walls.
• And many more... and these are just bugs I encountered myself

Frankly when i see Ubi game release i expect it to be unfinished and buggy mess for at least 6 months, but this is too much. The game is almost unplayable, heavily unfinished, feels like Beta-testing is a swear word in Ubis dictionary, and i haevnt seen any sufficient response in any of the posts concerned. This is like Unity, Syndicate and Breakpoint together.

Same here, tried everything, have it installed on M.2 disc, tried to lower resolution, effects, limit FPS, switch to fullscreen, borderless, windowed. Even tried to turn off fullscreen optimalization. Only thing i achieved is that now the game only uses 23% of CPU, 35% of GPU and 2/16Gb RAM while it stutters at 12 FPS. Honestly, following traditions is in itself no bad way, but Ubisofts tradition of releasing games that are unplayable for months is getting very annoying.

You cannot expect response. They already released the game, we already bought it. Ubisoft is already on christmas vacation.
Frankly after Breakpoint i should have expected this, but i guess i was naive, since i though that after Breakpoint fiasko Ubi would actually thing about what they [censored] up, and change something about it, but apparently since Breakpoint was selling after all, this technical garbage is the new Ubisoft standart.
Games released without any testing, riddled with gamebreaking bugs everywhere you look, Futches that create more bugs than fixes, patch notes that are 1/3 made up bugs and fixes and 1/3 just outright lies, and lazy uninspired "support" answers, because noone is apparently actually working on product they are selling, since i guess unlike my company, Ubisoft treats home office as paid vacation.
If [censored] like this happened at lets say car industry, reprecussions would be unimaginable. Considering what happened at dieselgate, what would you thing would happen, if car company released entire series of cars without working brakes or steering wheel. Its just this [censored] industry, that lets companies get away with unfinished and untested products.

I am [censored] sick and tired of this [censored]. I would like to love this game, i love combat, i like the story and characters, i enjoy the exploration, but if it was up to me, id hang entire team responsible for technical state of the game in draft by their various genitals until they tore.

@tyranusvader Well it was, today. Which means depending to your region it might be a week before you can download it.

@tyranusvader I just hope it will fix it. Having same issue (among plethora of others) and it is driving me crazy.

Since i still have that naive idea, that one day devs release patch that actually fixes at least one gamebreaking bug this game has, id like to know when can i excpect next patch. I kinda hoped that with end of Broken Festival we might get one, but that was apparently false hope.

Id like to know too. My guess is second half of January.

Pretty much everytime i collect treasure from soldier, it doesnt count toward completion and its radar icon changes to unidentified. That is at least two in Grantenbridgesterscire and four in Ledecesterscire. Also had one in Rygjafylcke, but reloading game and returning there solved it.

Pretty much the same, but only when in fight. When i try to use bow during exploration with no enemies, its okay. When in fight with regular cannon fodder, its usually okay, but when i try it in bos (or demi-boss) fights, the game fucks up.
