Anti-consumerism at it's finest. Apparently VMProtect is at runtime non stop. Basically Denuvo needs protecting with other protections. Ubisoft are ridiculous. They value DRM more than the customer. Ubi and the shareholders will remain happy and consumers will continue being an afterthought in the development process.

Whot ?? Afterburner make the game crash ?? Only played 8 hours but had no crash yet, and used afterburner the whole time. Is that something to look forward too ?? :eek:

On another little note, found this a tad funny earlier. Saw that I had a ? on the map so walked over there and once I got close enough turned out to be a kill this animal quest.. but.. ehmm well...

Never seen a animal in mid air though.

So since it looked like one of those horned ones I had to walk around and kill them until I found the right one.

Really wish they come with a update where the HUD becomes more modular and you can remove what you don't want to see, maybe even put so you can toggle them on and off with a button too.

Ya for some reason afterburner was running fine for me for about 10 hours then I installed new Nvidia drivers and game crashed when loading in from the menu.. I disabled AB and all been fine since and just haven't bothered enabling the OSD again just kept it running in the background for the GPU OC.. so it may be fine for you..

I hate having the reminders popping up and also hate the Objective in range use senu message aswell wish I could get rid of them.

I'm loving the game but confused by the level system, if I attack a higher level bandit with a red tag then I can shoot him with 15 arrows & hardly make a dent to his health but if he shoots me with just one or two I'm dead

Its not a Skull tag he has is it? Cause those are mobs who are much higher level

That's the point! He's higher level, don't bother trying until you've levelled up a bit more. You can usually go for them if they're 1 or 2 levels higher but yea, they will kill you fast!

Early still on first town.

I've been exploring the Siwa region and some of The Great Sand Sea so far, no crashes and I hope it stays that way.

Punt · 1 Nov 2017 at 17:27

I like the look of this but a bit concerned my lowly 4690k won't be up to the job, going off recent reports.

Never played an AC game before but I do have Black Flag in my steam library, never played it!

Digital X · 1 Nov 2017 at 17:30

I'm running it OK with my CPU, just cannot alt tab to browse etc that's when it hits hard.

The1nonly1 · 1 Nov 2017 at 17:34

14 hours in, level 17 and 22% complete. Next mission is at the hippodrome but still have a few quests in Alexandria. Loving this game.

Digital X · 1 Nov 2017 at 17:51

Only hippodrome I knew of was Herne Bay!

Bet it aint like that eh.

Radox-0 · 1 Nov 2017 at 18:18

Still not got to Alexandra yet, but thought I would gun it for the Isu armour. I think a art Director from Destiny joined the team

darkgen · 1 Nov 2017 at 19:04

Hmm come across a weird bug. Just started the game and the language had changed to Polish. Several minutes after working how to change it back to English and restarting the game has placed my Save game in the second slot (with the 1st and 3rd slot empty). When I start that save game I have side quests at level 16/17 and my main quest is to get to Alexandria in an area which is not accessible as yet!

I'm only level 6 and I was

about to be taken for a guide around the temple in the second area

What the dickens! I may have to restart again.

A few possible very very minor spoilers, but worth watching -

Very cool. I noticed the peeing one today - a guard was doing it into a bush allowing me to sneak up behind him

Can't fault this level of detail!

Is a familiarity with the franchise a necessity to play and enjoy this game?

I have not played any of the other AC games and enjoying it so far, but yes there is references towards the other games but you don't have to know the others.
