Online play | Friend lobby requires open NAT settings (or port forwarding) since it's P2P-based (not hosted by Ubisoft). This makes it impossible to play with friends with most aircards. |
Issues unresolved
"Press any key" start screen doesn't respond
Disabling AA incorrectly raise VRAM reported usage
(This is technically misleading or incorrect. Setting Multisample AA to Temporal Filtering does use less VRAM than OFF as it renders the game at half resolution and applies MSAA 2x to cover up the downscale.)
