Watch Dogs players have experienced a string of technical issues on PC this week, and Ubisoft has discussed some of them on Twitter. The publisher has also assured fans that a patch is in the works as you read this.

No really, this is hacking a ton of people off, particularly the whole uPlay DRM thing. Catherine’s compiled a gallery of some of the most-vicious Watch Dogs Steam reviews yet, and Pat’s even penned a blog on why this whole debacle needs to kill off Ubisoft’s DRM.

Now, Ubisoft’s Sebastien Viard has taken to Twitter to discuss the game’s PC issues, starting with a few posts about RAM:

Watch Dogs can use 3+ GB of RAM on NG consoles for graphics, your PC GPU needs enough VRAM for ultra options due to the lack of unified mem — Sebastien Viard (@SebViard) May 29, 2014

If you experience lag/stutter on a fast PC, try to lower one of those settings to reduce the GPU VRAM usage: texture quality, AA, resolution — Sebastien Viard (@SebViard) May 29, 2014 Subscribe to the VG247 newsletter Get all the best bits of VG247 delivered to your inbox every Friday!

Making an open world run on NG & CG consoles + supporting PC is an incredibly complex task, the team did a fantastic job. Congrats guys! 😀 — Sebastien Viard (@SebViard) May 29, 2014

He then offered fans some assurance that some sort of patch was in development now:

And finally, our PC progs are also currently working on a patch to improve your experience thanks to your reports, stay tuned 🙂 #WatchDogs — Sebastien Viard (@SebViard) May 29, 2014
