Graphics Glitches

When I first began playing, everything was gorgeous except for a bit of clipping. Which I understand is a problem for everyone. However, the longer I've played I've developed more and more glitches.

They have become invasive. When I say glitches, things floating such trees, birds, rocks, lots of miscellaneous terrain. I've got surfaces that are supposed to be in shadow but the shadows never resolve leaving a completely black wall or stone face, like onyx black. 

I didn't have any of this when I first started. I tried to repair the game. I've tried to reinstall. I tried with a fresh game without info loaded from the cloud. HELP! It's really getting on my nerves and is taking away from enjoyment of the game.

    Our member had an existing message thread about the same thing, but two months old.  Instead of reopening his prior thread, he wrote another message,  I chose to answer the other, older question, and report the duplicate as suitable to be merged, but the CMs chose to ignore the suggestion.

    Nvidia GPUs are a bit fussy with the Frostbite engine the game is built on. Try the following settings.

    In Nvidia Control Panel See images under spoiler.

    Spoiler

    In Game

    Post Processing Quality LOW Restart the game after making this change.
