blu4 Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Has anyone tried Assassins Creed Unity on PC yet? People say it has got stupid hardware requirements and it's badly optisimed. I want to get it but I'm not paying for a broken game.. Any experience with it?
jaminben Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Not yet... hopefully if I get time tonight I will. I've also read its badly optimized not just on pc but consoles as well... I think the PS4 version had a 1Gb patch made available to it.
blu4 Posted November 13, 2014 Author Posted November 13, 2014 This is fcuking bullcrap from Ubisoft! How can they release an unfinished game? I mean- look at Batman Arkham Origins- wide open spaces and everything is silky smooth. Let me know how you get on- what computer specs have you got?
jaminben Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 I'm not overly fussed about AC:U to be fair... more looking forward to the new Dragon Age next week.
Sunnyknight Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 It's on PC?! SINCE WHEN! Buying tonight. If my PC can't handle it, i'll kill myself. Buying DAO next week too. Specs:- 3930k @ 4.5ghz (1.36v) Rampage Extreme 2011 socket 16gb Corsair Dom Red @ 1866mhz (seems to fall over after 2133mhz, new ram inbound!) GTX 780ti x2 clocks OC'd to 110mhz more. NZXT 1000w Modular psu Evo pro 120ssd boot evo pro 250gb ssd storage CPU WC (GPU once i find a decent block) Phantom Enthusiast USB 3 case (full tower) All running on max settings as cool as 38 degrees (gpus top out at 42)
korifugi Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 To be honest - I'd give the title a miss for a while, if not completely... Low framerates - they're calling it 'cinematic' (What next - truly cinematic edition aka a slideshow?) Microtransactions - for a full price game? are they mad? REALLY shoddy glitches - drop through the floor? yup, cut scene with only the eyes and tongue of a character displaying? yup (although you may have to make a microtransaction to see the whole face) They've REALLY messed up this time.
localzuk Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 It isn't out in the UK yet is it!? Tomorrow is the launch date I thought.

korifugi Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Will we get nightmare fuel like this ? [ATTACH=CONFIG]27533[/ATTACH] Yes - that is exactly what I was on about, I can imagine a "download the facepack now for only £0.99" message at the bottom.
Theblacksheep Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 dem single player "micro" transactions. No more money to Ubisoft from me. They are worse than EA now, which is quite a thing.

DalekSec Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 AC is going the same way as COD, why do they have to do one every year? give it time make it better
mikeyd101 Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 I found out last night there releasing 2 new ACs, AC:Unity and AC:Rogue, Both are coming on PC but Unity is for next gen consoles and Rogue for last gen consoles. Sounds like i'll be holding off for a while let them get a few patches in, still not finished Black Flag yet so no real rush.
Garacesh Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 I would not buy.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PkzIGSyjLQ (Apologies for the terrible music )
jaminben Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 BBC News - Assassin's Creed: Unity criticised for widespread glitches
Sunnyknight Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 Looks like i won't be buying it then Stupid EA v2.
tmcd35 Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 Ubisoft. Assassins Creed. Environmental collision detection shot to hell. Is this really news? As no body played previous AC games? I'd almost be disappointed this far into the series if NPCs wasn't half buried in roof tops. This is par for the course. Also, nightmare characters with missing face parts are cool!
localzuk Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 Its getting to the point of only buying games after a few months of patches, like with Windows OSs. The publishers seem to be giving nonsense reasons why too such as "the online component makes it complicated" - yeah, it does, why not hire some people who have experience in that area? There are plenty of games with millions of online players... It looks like they simply released it before it was finished.

Suggestion. Can we stop calling games/studios AAA based on budget? Ubisoft have shown, once again, they suck at making games.
3s-gtech Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 I still await FC4 with big hopes - possibly because the FC3 engine was so good they don't actually need to change it, so 4 could be a mod for all I care.
localzuk Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 Definitely. FC3 was fantastic. I don't think I ever experienced a glitch in FC3.
jaminben Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 I still await FC4 with big hopes I believe the review embargo is set for tomorrow for FC4 which maybe a good sign that things are ok.
Theblacksheep Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 I believe the review embargo is set for tomorrow for FC4 which maybe a good sign that things are ok. ACU review embargo was after the release. Something to hide. Apparently alot of the framerate issues are down to...... Uplay! disconnecting from the internet (or not allowing connections to uplay) improve the framerate considerably on consoles, PC users might just need even more powerful hardware to overcome that issue until they fix it. I hate it when game rely on websites or companion apps in order to do more stuff in games. Not using the companion app shouldn't limit the content of the game. I really want to ignore the $99 "micro" transaction for single player content. Ubisoft are banking on people buy AC games yearly out of habit and they have got lazy and arrogant. The main bit I didnt like about FC3 was the party dudebro's at the start, I didn't want to rescue them. Having Uplay nagging me about signing in didnt help either. Hopefully FC4 is more than FC3 with elephants.
