Assassin's Creed Syndicate specs released

I use steammover to put my older games over to a 2TB HDD. That way they are still close by if I want to return to them but put the newer important one's on my SSDs

Didn't know about that.

Yeah I've got not very important games on my 1TB HDD but now everything is going on there as I have no space. I'll have to have a see what I can move about.

Nifty little program and quite handy. I actually have 3 x 2TB drives with 2 of them for games and 1 for my films/programs to stream.
 
I just have a Steam Library on each of my 4 SSD and HDD's that when I intall a game, I decide on how much I'll use it and whether I'll need the speed of an SSD or not. Then I just install it to the respective library on a drive of choice.
 
I saw someone give this away for free! I skipped Black Flag and previous due to 60hz limiter built in and disliked most of the complicated story. This is deffo my first outing into Assassins Creed and London it felt right now that they apparantly fixed the engine since Unity and DX12 is hopefully included along with the confirmed unlocked framerate.



It will be a while until i can keep 120fps in that with 1080p/8xaa i guess this will go nicely with Pascal yum yum and by then will be affordable for me as i need a new HDD first and like 5 other £39.99 games!

Ye a 660 is roughly equivalent to the PS4s graphics processor,
so not particularly high specs, though I dont see why the graphics setting cannot be lowered to make it work on older cards like 470, 550Ti etc

I got burned by watchdogs, havent cared about ubisoft since,
have tried AC games but never really got into them, in AC:3 it was a combination of lack of challenge, unsatisfying controls / movement
and inconsistent story, like you played as one guy for the first few hours and he was kinda cool and then it switched to a different person for no reason.

Just remembered I did a recording of this part where its basically impossible to lose
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mdWgbC31ZI

that was one of the more entertaining parts of the game and it was still a complete joke, I heard syndicate is even more casualized.
 
Loved Black Flag and I have the hitch of playing Assassin's Creed every two years, so definitely going to check it out (Jim Sterling didn't destroy it, so there's that too).

I hope - also seeing the disappointing sales - they'll start releasing them every two years.
It doesn't matter how good they can't make it, I can't put 30 hours every year on the same series.
 
Did you play AC Rogue? get it because you will enjoy it although for some reason it's underated & seemingly passed by almost unnoticed for PC, it's more or less similar to Black flag but even better with more weapons etc. Even the Legendary ships are there
I didn't even notice it was available but have not stopped playing it, you get a grenade launcher with sleep grenades that will drop a group of soldiers & a dart gun with sleep, berserk, rope & 'firecracker' darts.

One new area is the N Atlantic with icebergs which you can fire at to cause a mini sunami to swamp enemy boats.

This game also introduced 'gangs' now in AC syndicate, you have to capture gangs hideways by killing the leaders & cutting down the flag. There are female assassin ninjas hanging round in the shadows who leap out & stab you :p

The reason Rogue was largely ignored is because it was viewed as the poor man's Unity due to it being an old gen's sorry you're not in the Unity club here let me throw you a bone title. I read the PC version was flawless in comparison to Unity though and do plan on getting it once it's cheap enough (I've yet to play more than a couple of hours of any Creed game even though I own them all up to and including Unity). I keep meaning to play them but never do so I see no point in paying too much any more.
 
these games are getting released far too often now. AC, COD, FIFA (atleast this has a tiny excuse to do it - transfers and honours). i stopped playing COD years ago as the releases where far to regular.

im hoping dragon age inquisition doesnt have another sequel any time soon (in the next year atleast). otherwise i wont bother completing it.

Not sure if you know this. But if you close down steam and copy the game to another drive and then open steam again and delete the game. Next time you click install and select the location you copied the game to steam will auto find the files and install.

That's all I do for moving games from drive to drive.

Not always worked for me this but i beleive it's because you need the steam.dll to be there too.

So on other drives i have Steam/steamapps
within the steam folder there is steam apps folder and the steam.dll file
And in the steam apps folder all the normal subdirectory so common, downloading, temp etc.

Having it set up this way on all other drives ensures when i copy another game over and delete it in the other drive. Next time when i go into steam and go through installing again but choose the new drive location it will 100% recognize the game for me.

This is in my experience any ways.

When deleting from steam don't go into folder and delete, for it to work you must delete it from within steam. So it's grayed out on your list, then when you click install and it ask you where to install so long you select the correct location steam will find all the files and continue the install.

It'll be at least another couple of years before any more Dragon Age. Mass Effect: Andromeda is Bioware's next big thing.
