Assassins Creed Origins players are having trouble using the CPU from the game. Although the game is known for using too many of the computer resources, Voksi cracker says that what really blames is the development and distribution company's efforts to protect against piracy.
Those who deal with the matter know that their protection Denuvo has gone on a walk, and so Ubisoft allegedly has called for reinforcement forces that stick to the most powerful engines.
"It is an anti-consumer and disgusting move."
There is a war on the Internet. On the one hand, game companies, publishers and anti-piracy companies, and people who, for different reasons, want to play or try games for free.
Although both teams are free to fight in a way they choose, there are collateral losses. Those who pay for their games are equally at risk with those who use broken software.
In the last few days, some of his players Assassin's Creed Origins they reported too many problems playing the game.
"What is the normal CPU usage for this game?" asks an Assassins Creed Origins user on Steam forums. "I have between 60% and 90% and I wonder if the percentage is very high or not."
This particular user reports that he uses an i7 processor, which is very powerful. However, for those running a CPU with less oomph, things are even worse.
Another gamer, with an i5 processor, reported an 100% workload on all four processor cores, even when choosing lower graphics settings in an attempt to release resources.
What could be causing these problems? Bad computer settings? Poor coding? Probably not…
According to Voksi, whose team "Revolt" broke Wolfenstein II: The whole problem is directly linked to the desperate anti-piracy measures the company has taken.
As mentioned in previous posts Denuvo's anti-piracy technology has been breached by crackers. Several release groups break the protection a few hours after the game is released, making the software lock almost useless. However, at Assassin's Creed Origins, Ubisoft decided to double the security, Voksi told Torrentfreak.
"Basically, Ubisoft has implemented VMProtect over Denuvo protection, raising the game's resource requirement by 30-40%. This requires an expensive processor just because of DRM. ” "It's an anti-consumer and disgusting move."
