Surprise?

"Assassin's Creed 2 PC has moved to the first quarter of 2010," Ubisoft revealed via Twitter. "A bit more time for the dev team to deliver the best quality game to you."

I guess Ubi didn't learn from their mistakes the first time...

It's a real shame that Ubisoft's "best quality game" will still almost definitely be mediocre.

zzz Ubisodt sucks in game development. Anyhow we can save money by taking a peak on how repettive the game is from the console versions.

Would it be better for them to build the game as a Pc port first and adapt for the console after? Could it shorten the time producing for pc and not make the console release too far either?

No way is Assassin's Creed 2 looking mundane - everything that I've seen and read about this game suggests that Ubisoft learned from its mistakes with the first game. This second game promises to be everything that the first game wasn't.

I'm disappointed that the PC version has been delayed. That said, if the developer needs more time, then they need more time. Do whatever is necessary to make the game great - and if that does include DX11 support, then I certainly wouldn't mind waiting a little while longer.

This game was high on my list, and it still remains high.

Well it's a shame, but Ubisoft has been on my ****list as of this entire generation. I can honestly say that out of Vegas, AC, GRAW, PoP, and Double Agent, GRAW was the only game that met my expectations.

While the delay was no surprise, I was practically waiting for it, I'm still going to get it, yes, buy it, I brought the original AC and loved it and I have no doubt that i'll love this one too.

Yosandeep410, every1 agrees with you. Any1 who thinks AC1 was awesome sucks.

On a more serious note I must get me a PS3 now because I can't wait 3 more months for this and since my computer won't run this on high anyhow I really don't care about the supa awesome graphics they will promise us when the console versions are released.

once again the pc version of a hyped multiplat is delayed. guess we should just assume we will get every multiplat late then when one gets released simultaneously it'll be a nice suprise.

Ubisoft is by far one of the worst PC developers. Even when the first Assassins Creed delayed for extra development time for the PC, the performance was still very rough; Assassins Creed 2 is shaping up to be no different.

not forgetting the month-early leak, which just shows they simply put the game on the shelf until they want to start selling

The leak was bugged, like Batman's leak. Or like all the Stalker and Clear Sky leaks.

I personally think ubisoft's upcoming lineup is pretty good --- Silent Hunter V, Settlers 7, HoMM VI, but then again I don't really have much interest in their console games which I find prettycrappy

I should have been more specific. I meant the 360 version. I liked GRIN's PC versions for 1 and 2 though.

I'm not really concerned about this coz its not very high on my list. I did enjoy playing AC 1 though :D In fact, i thought it was awesome ahahahaha.... Sure it was repetitive...but I love it! haha whats wrong.... oh boy... Anyways, I will have like...Gothic 3 (CP patch), Risen, Dragon Age, King's Bounty, NWN 2 expacs etc to tide me over...and these are not even half the list of my backlog games I'm supposed to complete.

Dragon Age and Modern Warfare 2 will be released in November. This may cause Ubisoft to move the release of Assassins Creed 2 to a later date to increase the likelihood of higher sales.

Well it was to be expected, I was kinda hoping that they'd be changing their policy and putting more effort on PC side of things with a big game like this coming out simultaneously, but I guess not. Though the first one was already so tedious that I can't seem to care much.

ITT: Angry and Unpatient Internet Men.

Now go troll the Call of Prypiat boards because it launches in Q1 2010 in the West, while Russia and CIS will enjoy it in a couple of weeks.

This. Basically the same formula they used with Far Cry 2. Horrible developer.

I don't know if what You say is true.

But on this page :

http://www.vgreleases.com/pc/ReleaseDate-117376.aspx

They say that Assassin's Creed Is coming out 20 November 2009.

What to believe?

I wish it come out this year.

If you think about it, the PC version will sell badly if it is released with MW2. It'll most likely be pirated if someone can only afford one game, plus the fact most PC gamers are waiting for MW2. I doubt it was shifted for "perfecting" but I do hope they make it something worthy of the wait like AC:Director Cut. The few extra modes were worth it.

Hardly surprising - we know after the mess they made of porting the first one that they're crap at PC ports.

Funny, how was the first a mess of a port? Apart from the "problem" of going through tons of menus to exit the game (which is solved by Alt-F4).

Bad move from Ubisoft. PC Gamers would probably buy Modern Warfare 2 and Dragon Age in November, but delaying to Q1 2010 is much worse, there're even more great titles that people wouild prefer over Assassin's Creed 2.

That was kind of expected. Did anyone honestly think that Ubisoft would actually finish on time? I'll probably pick it up at some point next year. Although it was very repetitive I still thought that AC1 was tons of fun. I usually don't put in long hours at a time for video games so it never felt like I was doing the exact same thing all day. AC2 is looking like it's going to be good and I'm looking forward to it but since it was pretty much a given that it was going to be delayed I was never pumped for it.

lolwut? you haven't seen the recent gameplay trailers right? Also the first game was a good port save the menu's.
