so just tried the above game, i think it is the worst console port i have ever tried.

the ui is shocking i couldnt get it to play at 1920x1080 i had to select 5760x1080 just for it to run at 1920x1080.

i cant get it to run past the very first cut scene except 1 time i got just past it pulled the trigger and it crashed instantly.

but the biggest LOL is that even when using keyboard and mouse when your told to press a key etc it still has the xbox pad symbols on the screen.

FOV is too small.

screen tearing is very bad also.

damn you ubisoft...
 
Yet another brilliant franchise gone down the crapper thanks to consoles then, makes me worry for Far Cry 3, I'm relying on that to be good. :/
 
Ubisoft... are you really that surprised?

They might fix the bugs for a month or 2, and then just leave it to start the next project to make more money.

I promised myself to never buy one of their games again.
 
the first 2 GRAWs was like this as well.....bug infested/ screen tearing/ AI getting stuck against walls etc...in the 2nd game the AI used to get stuck at the spawn point, you had to do the missions without them...... but VEGAS/ VEGAS 2 were ok

it's not a console port that's the problem, it's simply a buggy game it always has been, dont get GRAW yet wait a few weeks
 
Try before you buy that's my moto, wasting £30 on this trash would make me :mad:


it's not a console port that's the problem, it's simply be a buggy game it always has been, dont get GRAW yet wait a few weeks

lol it uses console controller symbols for keyboard ones, it has dodgy resolution options, it's another Ubi **** port.

I have all of the consoles and so I just buy it for the platform it was intended and then at least you are getting the experince the developer intended.

However, either do a good job or not at all. If a dev is going to release for the PC then the should 'release for the PC'. There is really no excuse and I would love to be in those meeting at the dev, where this is discussed:

dev: so we are going for a PC port of the console version?
producer/publisher: yup
dev: so shall we spend a short amount of time ensuring that our PC customers get the best experience that we, experts in our field, can offer?
producer/publisher: hmmm, we could, however we have decided that we won't bother with that and just give them the Xbox version.
dev: but.................
producer/publisher:.... No one will buy the game then, it will get shoddy reviews and we will blame lack of sales on piracy and then never have to create a PC game again and be blameless.
dev: /facepalm

or something to that effect....
 
Ubisoft are a bunch of french idiots. They care nothing for the PC market and clearly only put out releases these days to make a few extra quid.
 
GRAW is also tactical and a bit boring as well, you have to use Drones etc when there's no need to, or RPGs etc, plus it's not fun like Vegas 2.... or Crysis.

and by God it can be hard to play, you can die over and over again before you even know why, i'll never forget that ****** bridge that you had to cross in Mexico City in GRAW 2, the most annoying map i've played in a game, no matter what i did, i could not get over the bridge.

Future Soldier is deffo a game to read the reviews first before buying, because if it's anything like GRAW 2 forget it.

does it !!!.... hell, it's even worst than GRAW then, this was one game that i was looking forward to.....this aint good
 
Whoever is responsible for all of these terrible PC ports really needs to have their incompetent ass(s) fired, seriously this is such a terrible joke and it's getting tiring.
 
they're not testing the game on PC to see if it's ok before releasing it, because these faults are pretty basic mistakes to make and they should have been found two months ago

the first FAR CRY was like this too, it needed 2 or more patches to get it working... but i've no idea what FAR CRY 2 was like.

you might not notice this if you downloaded FAR CRY from Steam recently, but years ago when it first came out it crashed all the flipping time..it was a pile of junk !

strange because VEGAS Rainbow 6 is perfect, both games are perfect

Poor sales of this game will result in Ubisoft saying that everyone just pirated it and then they will reintroduce their DRM into every game again, then Ubisoft will become just another POS developer to avoid.
 
Wish id read this before purchasing it, been in game about 10 mins, total bull***t. FOV is ****, controls are ****, graphics, well at first i thought it was my xfire and i guess it could be, but first impressions, pure dross. Do not buy! do not buy! 30 quid wasted.
 
Got quite far into it, i would say the game is pretty average. I do enjoy the stealth takedowns where you time your shots to kill 3-4 enemies. But i think i will finish the game then thats it i wont touch it.
