Upscaling? Wtf? This is a game not a dvd.
Get a life. There are more pressing issues with this game than the res.
The Ai. needs serious tweaking so it can’t see you through wood/trees/buildings etc.
Stealth in this game suck.
Clearing an outpost and leaving results in total respawn of enemy as soon as you’re gone.
Prison Glitch at 77%.. Stuck. Can see the exit but seems to be no way out.
Everybody hates you in a country this large and they all know you by sight from a mile away.. with the exception of night-time you get a slight advantage.
Weapons need to be tweaked for more realistic physics and such
Vehicles need more speed as the enemy seem to be able to chase you on foot and catch up.
Game gets way too hard with enemies around every corner in act 2.
Etc.
Lolz!
And you are worried about the res.?

Yeah, the farce they call widescreen support needs fixing.
Surely that is the most important fix.
Ubi promised so much and have delivered so little…
