"We optimized some of the performance issues that were causing some users to experience high amounts of stuttering while playing Watch_Dogs." This was the pronouncement made by the team.
They further add: "Instances of stuttering during gameplay should now be reduced, especially when using 'High Textures'; however, some players might still experience some stuttering while playing with 'Ultra Textures' settings on."

For PS3 and PS4 gamers, loading issues are now finally addressed. By reconstructing the corrupted save files, players can now get past the 90 percent marker in loading screens. However, according to Examiner, some of the collectible items may no longer be recovered. Another major fix targets to keep players from using hacks in a game.
