Thank yoouuuu! Idk what was up with my game, usually it runs just fine but today it wouldn't stop freezing, I did the DirectX Setup and it fixed the issue.
I'm actually playing on an old Lenovo G580 Laptop i3 processor and intel HD Graphics lmao

Wow thank you so much for responding to this thread! Never had a developer respond to one of my threads before! Cheers to a great game!

Heya Zem,

We're always glad to see players helping others to get our older games running, so the least we can do is post to show our appreciation Glad to hear you've had a good time with Assassin's Creed!

Starting via testapp.exe in folder Assassins Creed worked for me, thx!

Unfortunately both these fixes don't work for me. I've been playing the game for 16 hours and everything was fine then all of a sudden today it's not playable. It frrezes for about 3 or 4 seconds every 30 to 60 seconds, Tried to verify integrity of game files, tried uninstalling and reinstalling and tried both fixes in this thread. Nothing,

The game start animation also skips like an old record. Tried other games they're all fine.

This is completely broken and if it cannot be fixed will never be able to finish the game and consequently the entire Assassin's creed franchise as I'm starting with the first game. Talk about throwing away 375 dollars...

it didnt work for me:(

Hey friend, not sure if you've seen the other posts about htis in the dicussion board. As of right now there's a known issue with freezing because of ubisoft updating servers. I've no idea how this supposedly works on the inside, but apparently AC1 is trying to connect to servers that don't exist. Eventually it's supposed to fix itself, but in the meantime, you should be able to play without this particular issue if you're willing to turn off the internet on your computer entirely. Unfortunately using offline mode or trying to use your firewall to block just this application from accessing the internet won't work. it has to be Completely off.

It better. It's still a pay for product and they sell it at $20. They're just lucky that it's old, otherwise it would be refund city.

Tried both fixes, no luck. It has to do with Ubisoft's dusty-ass servers being down and this game (which is a singleplayer game, mind you) is continuously trying to ping said servers for whatever unfathomable reason they need to ping them for. When said ping fails, your game freezes for a solid 5-10 seconds because that's just what they programmed it to do.

The devs keep saying "oh just turn off your wifi and you can play the game just fine :D" but that doesn't solve the core issue. What if I happen to be in a voice call and I want to play while I chat with my friends? What if I wanted to stream gameplay on YouTube or Twitch? Forcing always-online gameplay on an old singleplayer game is unprofessional and unacceptable. If you're reading this, you should be mad about it. You should tell the devs they need to fix this or patch out the always-online requirement. If we sit here and act like this is okay, then they assume we don't need anything to change.

This is the one that worked for me, much appreciated.

For me disabling my network adapter fixed the freezing issue. Very weird.
