PLAY WATCH DOGS BELOW MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS:
Hello Everybody...
WATCH DOGS IS A TRUE NEXT-GEN GAME... its Experience is Awesome... but it has many optimization issues with it... . by looking at the official minimum specs the first thing that comes to my mind is that... "Ubisoft made it only for rich peoples".The game was optimized only for Nvidea Chips... AMD was helpless...
Many peoples are/were very sad because they can't play Watch dogs properly on their pc on their system because they have 2 core processors like mine, have AMD Graphics card but have other good mid to high end gaming parts of pc...
NOTE: This Post's gonna be long, so please read carefully...
Earlier this month... I was happy because watch dogs came out... i Purchased it ... installed it ... and now i can't play that game because game freezes for 5 sec and then resumes... it stutters like a hell on road with cars and bikes.
My sys specs: * AMD Athlon 270x2 3.47ghz
* Saphirre AMD HD 6670 1gb gddr5
* Kingston Hyperx Blue 8gb gaming ram ddr3 1600mhz
My friend specs * AMD fx4130 black adition 3.8ghz 8mb cache 4core (outperforms mine)
* 4gb 1333mhz (bad than mine)
* saphirre AMD HD 6450 1gb ddr3 (bad than mine)
game was working perfect on my frnd system with inferior quality of pc parts except his processor...
so, i was still curious why it was not working on my pc... so the guilt part was the processor... it will work on 4 core processor...
here are the official minimum and recommended req for wd...
| Minimum System Requirements | |
|---|---|
| Operating System | Windows Vista (SP2) Windows 7 (SP1) Windows 8 and 8.1 Note that Watch Dogs only supports 64 bit OSs. |
| Processor (CPU) | 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Quad Q8400 3.0 GHz AMD Phenom II X4 940 |
| System Memory | 6GB RAM |
| Video Card* (GPU) | 1,024 MB DirectX 11-compliant & Shader Model 5.0. |
| Hard Drive Space | 25 GB |
| Sound Card | DirectX 9.0c Compatible Sound Card |
| DirectX Version | DirectX 11 |
| Internet | Broadband connection required for multiplayer mode |
| Recommended System Requirements | |
|---|---|
| Operating System | Windows Vista (SP2) Windows 7 (SP1) Windows 8 and 8.1 Note that Watch Dogs only supports 64 bit OSs. |
| Processor (CPU) | 3.5 GHz Intel Core i7 3700 4.0 GHz AMD FX-8350 |

Conclusion: The game doesn't even look that good according to its demanding resources.
Ubisoft downgraded graphics giving explanation to increasing performance... but added more performance issues with bad graphics.
even gta4 with icenhancer mod enhance its visuals than official watch dogs...
But i found Something...

According to AMD’s Robert Hallock, it’s terrible news for the PC gaming ecosystem on the whole.
“Gameworks represents a clear and present threat to gamers by deliberately crippling performance on AMD products (40% of the market) to widen the margin in favor of NVIDIA products,” Hallock told me in an email conversation over the weekend. But wait, it stands to reason that AMD would be miffed over a competitor having the edge when it comes to graphical fidelity and features, right? Hallock explains that the core problem is deeper: “Participation in the Gameworks program often precludes the developer from accepting AMD suggestions that would improve performance directly in the game code—the most desirable form of optimization.”
So a partner studio like Ubisoft can suggest or write enhancements to the GameWorks libraries, but AMD isn’t allowed to see those changes or suggest their own.
“The code obfuscation makes it difficult to perform our own after-the-fact driver optimizations, as the characteristics of the game are hidden behind many layers of circuitous and non-obvious routines,” Hallock continues. “This change coincides with NVIDIA’s decision to remove all public Direct3D code samples from their site in favor of a ‘contact us for licensing’ page. AMD does not engage in, support, or condone such activities.

but AMD some how managed to optimize their drivers and came out with amd catalyst beta 14.6 drivers... the performance gain for watch dogs was up to 30-40 %... and it worked too... but still stutter can't go... game still freezes but was smooth than earlier...
so i kept searching for performance mods... ubisoft was making its performance patch... and even after it's release... it maked gaming community sad...
i ended up with The mod u must be familiar... "The Worse Mod" for watch dogs...
He enabled peoples to enjoy original 2012 e3 graphics with smooth performance... Not only worse his team maldo, vaas and himself made a mod to smoothen the game...

unlike it's name... This mod is savior to the gaming community...
I also modified my xml file... peoples still don't know much about that... there are still many hidden options that helps to gain performance... also modified catalyst contol center 3d gaming settings for optimum performance...
So, friends u dont need 6gb ram... 4gb is ok... i m damn sure on this because my friend completed this game without any problem... u don't need 4 core processor... i m damn sure because i m playing wd with 2 core processor...
the detailed procedure will be available to you all very shortly... thank you all very much....
