I just wanted to ask that when will the Watch Dogs Performance Patch be released cause right now from my opinion it is badly optimized. I am getting 100% Cpu usage with 30% max GPU usage and i know it is not a bottleneck cause i get 80 to 100% gpu usage along with the cpu in other games.

To be honest i am fairly disappointed that there are 4000+ experts here on games and nobody care to even answer and do a little research, seems like this forum is getting too old!!! Leave it as it may be i have found a solution to the problem. It is not as much of a solution cause it didn't fix the graphic card problem but i did few tweakings in the profile file that made my game run smooth.

First of all thanks to Nvidia for making things clear for me (even though i use ATI card) http://www.geforce.com/whats-new/guides/watch-dogs-grap...

Here is what i did, i went to the "GamerProfile" in Documents and than My Games->Watch Dogs and edited the following things in custom settings. Remember to use the custom graphic settings in the game because if you don't and use Low, High, Ultra mode of the game than game will not use these edited settings. And remember change only the settings i am changing and first backup this file in case anything goes wrong and i don't take any responsibility if it mess up your game!!!

1: Change "EnviromentQuality" to "low"
2: "PostFxQuality" to "low"
3: "TextureResolutionQuality" to "low"
4: "WaterQuality" to "low"
5: "ParaboloidReflectionQuality" to "low"
6: "VegetationQuality" to "low"
7: "TerrainQuality" to "low"
8: "GeometryQuality" to "low"
9: "ShadowQuality" to "low"
10: "ShadingQuality" to "low"
11: "ParticlesQuality" to "low"
12: "SuperSampling" to "0"
13: "RenderRain" to "0"
14: "SSAOQuality" to "off"
15: "DepthofFieldQuality" to "off

That's all the things i did. Basically i just reduced all the graphical loading things that make my processor stress since the game is not using graphic card more than 30%. And to be honest i saw major performance boost but major Quality loss but it is only temporarily because i hope soon Ubisoft release a patch for ATI cards (i hope).
