    When I reinstalled Windows 7 this year I tried downloading the games thru Uplay again. 1.5 years out and still CRC error every damn time. GG Ubi$hit!

    Maybe I should do the same. I just can't make all that "deluxe edition" crap to work in my games.

    I remembered I cloned my desktop's SSD to a backup SSD, and luckily for me it still had patch v1.05 before Utter$h!t broke SLI. Promptly fished out the old Disrupt_b64.dll file and dropped it in, and BAM now SLI works again. With the exact same settings, I can now manage 80+ frames with 1440p downsampling, whereas after this latest patch I was barely pushing 65 at 1080p rofl. Granted the driving experience isn't as smooth anymore, especially on fast bikes, but overall it's much more playable.

    So as you can see boys and girls, it does pay to backup your stuff every now and then.

    It was always running great for me. Now it runs like crap.
    Anyway. That's honestly the last game I'm buying for more than $5 from these shills. They can crash and burn for all I care.

    They do nothing but cock-block.png the PC platform since they know their bread is buttered on the consoles.
