It's not really a big deal, it's less than a month of a difference.

Hopefully they nail the optimization this time. I'd like this to be the first Assassin's Creed game that runs 60fps without dips.

Scum bag companies treating PC gamers like second class citizens. Nothing new about this.

I've never really had a problem hitting 60fps in AC games accept for the first one.

No surprise really.

And usually we'll get some nice mini free DLC for it like Da Vinci's Disapearance or the Assassin's Tomb and so on, I'm absolutey ok with it.

The only one who didn´t see it coming was a hermit and his dog. A good bet is that this delay will become December or Jan 2013

GameSpy: So when's the PC release date?

Ubisoft PR:October 30th.

GameSpy: Yeah, but when's therealPC release date?

Ubisoft PR:It's October 30th.

GameSpy: Uh huh. And can you say that with a straight face?

Ubisoft PR:You can ask me as many times as you like, but the answer will be the same.

GameSpy: Very well, let's move on. So, when will you announce the delay of the PC version?

Ubisoft PR:...

I said DIPS. DIPS. It ran mostly at 60fps, but the game would dip into the 40's, about 50% of the time. I find it annoying. My opinion anyways.

Yes, i can imagine how painful it must be having the framerate at 40 FPS for a split second. Oh teh horrors :P

I planned on getting the ps3 version anyway. I feel Assassin's Creed is easier to play with a controller

It was always going to be after the console version because if you notice on the trailers it always said consoles release Oct. 31st but said "PC at a later date" or something along those lines. I was prepared for a few week difference.

But this is good, means we can see console footage and determine if it's worth the release cost and if it seems to be below expectations then wait for a price drop

I have never bought a single AC game. I've literally borrowed all of them. Ubi must hate me.

This is just wrong, we know the PC version is lead platform (all the footage of AC3 shown at E3 was on PC, even at Sony's)

hopefully skidrow leak it a week early again, no one wants to buy delayed console ports

Though it often requires extra programs while X Box Controller doesn't.

But in the case of AC every part I own for PC (and that's ALL of them except for Bloodlines) plays fantastic with a standard USB Controller when you set it up right. Another great thing about the series on PC: Fully customizeable controller layout.

Yes, since we're talking about Ubisoft. Though I am surprised it's only delayed this little ... Meh, probably gonna be delayed further for early 2013 ...

I never played Ass-Creed 2. The first one was kinda fun to play at my friends on his PS3 but I never bought the port. Now they are making a third one? Doesn't surprise me at all, innovation is dead in this industry. Half-Life 3 is still in development too, but that's an actual good game that I'm looking forward to.

Bleh, it's Ubisoft, they are doing it because of piracy concerns. I'll take it late ahead of intrusive DRM any day.

I really think im gonna give this game a skip this time around. Frankly I think the series has lost focus somewhere along the way. I like AC1 and 2 because they were stealth games. But right now its more like prince of persia with bombs!

A month is no big deal, especially since I refuse to even acknowledge all Ubisoft games' existence until I'm sure they don't have the dog leash DRM and therefore I can actually play them.

Yeah I'm disappointed, but thanks for the link. Guess they want to make all their money on the console versions first!
