===Random Freezing on PCs with multi-core CPUs===
By default, the game is VERY poorly optimized for multi core systems and may randomly freeze on systems with more than 2 cores. To fix this, open task manager during the game. Right click on assassinscreediigame.exe and click 'Set Affinity'. Uncheck all but 2 of the available CPU cores. The game should discontinue freezing. NOTE: This has to be done every time you play the game. You can set this permanently with a utility like RadeonPro. It will detect the game and set affinity dynamically.
