It's probably not the best sign when 'Ubisoft launch' has become gamer shorthand for "give it a week or two." Obviously some of the bugs and glitches of Watch Dogs: Legion should be viewed with a sense of proportion: these are incredibly complex products, and watching a motorbike randomly spin into the sky can be as amusing as it is annoying. It's unclear just how serious Legion's faults are though: there was a game-breaking-bug on Xbox, while the game's general PC performance currently leaves an enormous amount to be desired.
The PC version is due an update tomorrow. It's unlikely this will fix the current issues, including precipitous frame-drops whenever a character dares look at the Thames. Tomorrow's hotfix only mentions improved performance for RTX cards, and nothing about CPU load, which seems to be the issue for most people.
We'll report further on the serious side but, meantime, some of these glitches sure are funny. Quick acknowledgement: some of these clips are from the console version.

720 noscope baby! This is the kind of glitch you almost want them to keep.
