Assassins Creed Unity Hype Thread GS: 7, FLOOOOOOOOP

I heard the COOP is only select missions. Is that true?

Yep the pop in and draw distance is terrible on all platforms. wtf did Ubisoft do

This is PC on max without AA:

The grass rendering distance is a complete joke.

Maybe that is just as far as the grass goes...............

I would have to see this part in motion to see if more grass pops in or not. I'm not going to lose my mind over a screenshot with no context.

Woh boy. Dark clouds are forming over AC Unity right now. This is going to get quite interesting.

I'll just leave this here...

Just got my copy, quite liking it so far. I really like how many enterable interiors there are.

Performance seems good on my rig, better than Black Flag in fact while looking much better.

Welp, 6 minutes

Lost interest in the game when Ubi stated that the game was going for parity across the consoles. I may pick it up in the bargain bin next year when it's $20.

Review?

Flopped. 7/10

7

I wonder if Rogue will outscore this. I think they'll score the same.

Ubifail...

No from loltaku.

Loltaku's review.

It's atrocious across all platforms. Dat Parity.

Holy shit this game has been assassinated.

Ouch flop.

Why they didn't mention performance issues ?

Gamespot: Where games go to flop.

Anyways not surprised. I'm beginning to nee a cycle.

..yea I noticed that too. Infact they went on about how gorgeous the game looked.

This game runs at 20fps with stuttering on the Xbox one. I've made a huge mistake!

According to salucous site Kotaku (which has sex with female developers); Ubisoft are apparently, greedy.

As predicted before even the launch of next generation consoles, they are simply a push to have mobile style monopolization in every major console title

Unity also appears to be an experiment to see how much Ubisoft can atomise a game and split it into tiny component parts, the better to aggressively adopt the gameplay systems and business practices of character-levelling, randomised gear collection, individualised characters, synced companion apps and optional and temporary micro-transaction-fuelled stat-boosting that can make solo gameplay easier.

Well that settles that. Reading the criticisms of this game over multiple reviews has confirmed that I'll have to wait on this one.

A 7 is a good score still. I dont mind, since this is only my 2nd AC game that I'll play and have finished.

Playstation lifestyle gave it a 10 on the ps4 version... There's a reason why metacritic can be trash.

I FUKIN CALLED IT, DONT EVER DOUBT ME U BITCHES REHASH CREED FUKIN SUCKS

Just watching the video review it's absolutely disgraceful that they're still rocking that clanky and poorly animated shovel ware combat. They've had what about 9 years to improve it but it's still the same old shit? Mordor and even Arkham Asylum back in 2009 put their combat system to shame.

Eh don't care, when a reviewer doesn't talk about the performance issues but wants to talk about how they didn't like a segment of the game just shows how piss poor gaming journalism is.

Honestly, the only review you need.

Floppy flop

Anybody still getting the PS4 version and up for some coop?

Welp, of course I'm still getting it

Reading and watching the reviews makes it sound like they really did enjoy the game.

lol, that was awesome lol.

Actually made me want to get it sooner :P

Did anyone honestly expect any higher? Boats were the best thing about Assassins Creed 4. Get rid of those and the game is kinda crap.

It's not even just low frame rate but the audio cuts out and gets choppy just while roaming the city. Can you get a refund on digital copies?

I agree. The rest of it was bleah.

Agree too. ac4 was best because of naval combat.

oh and blu_hazy i see that you always talk about SNIPER. you are so obsess with him.

@Ben-Buja: Looks a little blurry, what AA you using?

Well AC 3 got an 8.5 and I've heard people bitch a lot about that game...

It's nice to see an AC game get heavily criticized for shitty optimization and rampant bugs for once.

FXAA, but the shitty JPG compression + imgur compression doesn't help either.

Looks great in motion.

Well damn what a dog.

Boy oh boy am I surprised....

What went wrong?

LOL its a GS review, getting this game as soon as i can, very excited for it!

After running through the tutorial the combat just feels like the same shit, only slower and without counter instakills.

Another Joystiq editor, playing on PS4, encountered similar bugs. On Xbox One however, these issues were exacerbated by a framerate with less structural integrity than the crumbling roofs of Paris. Whether I ran through the crowded streets or shambled along the rooftops, noticeable drops in framerate almost constantly distracted from the experience.

Parity in full effect lads.

Loving that parity.

Ubisoft wanted to stop debates and stuff, so they tried their best to make an equally shitty game.

If it's shitty on every system no one will ever debate which one is better.

Genius.
