Assassin's Creed Unity is 900p/30fps on both PS4 & Xbox

[Broken Hope]

So why isnt the game limited to 900p on pc? Its deved st the highest resolution, then coded and optimised for consoles.

Thiers nothing more to this, Ubisoft dont want to put the coding work in for optimisation. Simple as that. Theris far bigger games MS would have piad for, even though theirs no previous standing for a oem ever paying a dev company for such a thing.

Microsoft don't even allow indie games to launch on rival platforms first, you honestly think it's not something they would do?

 

[MOOGLEYS]

Will just have to play it at 1440p then on my pc if no 1080p ps4.

I'm sure it will run like tripe on pc like Black Flag does...

 

[An Exception]

+1 to this.

I imagine it will be patched for 1080 on PS4 after launch.

That's what I thought to, but I guess it depends on contracts have or haven't been signed.

I assume the latest exclusive marketing contract with MS must require the XB1 version to perform the same as the PS4 version. It would then be left to Ubi to do suitable gimping to make that happen.

Did it

Lets hoping for day one patch for full res on ps4

 

[Mr Men]

What that people don't like to buy the best version of a game?
Seriously???

Not really the point he was trying to make though is it.

 

[Shamikebab]

Apparently sold 3x more on PS4 than XB1 when at the time the PS4 was not even double the XB1 install base.

That's quite a difference.

The tomb raider that everyone played last gen?


Yeah I wonder why...

 

[ic1male]

If they do the same for Far Cry 4 then my blood will be really boiling.

I think it was.

 

[Mr Men]

I think it was.

So you think someone who owns just a XB1 will not buy this game because its better on a console they do not own? righto....so therefore nobody will buy it on PS4 because it's better on PC?

 

[peahead]

Poor show again from Ubisoft but then why is anybody surprised

If i remember correctly black flag did not run that great on pc either.

Lazy coding i guess

Yet somehow does 3x the sales than XB1? How do you answer that.

 

[cu3ed]

That they could pay Ubispft to keep the resolution lower, and mot sell to the potential millions more on the much stronger platform?.

Its a no brainer with the IP like Assasins, let face it, after their last few outings, Ubisoft need to make this bankable for their sakes.

More other game on XO at the time maybe is a factor, more units in the market for the PS4.

Are you trying to be obtuse, or can't you help it?

If it's the latter, let me help you.
If someone is looking to buy a console. All else being equal, they buy the one with better quality games.
Many people have multiple platforms XB1, PS4 & PC and want the better version.
Why do people buy console games over PC? Well because people like to play with their friends who mostly have consoles. Also some people like me just prefer the console experience.

Dev's make dumb moves all the time. Just look at SE and tomb raider.
That must have been an expensive timed exclusive for microsoft.

 

[cu3ed]

Still nothing to do with what Ubisoft is doing.

Right so why would it matter to Ubisoft if someone bought a PS4 and their game cause it was better as opposed to buying a XB1 and buying their game as it was not inferior? They make 1 sale.

Enlighten me.

Let's also assume someone has both consoles they buy the game on PS4 because it's better why would that hurt Ubisoft that they did not buy it on the XB1? They make 1 sale.

Again enlighten me.

I thought I already had.

You have failed to take into account other areas of revenue stream.
If I was Microsoft, I wouldn't want to pay top $ for exclusive marketing rights, for Ubi to make a superior version for the competition.

Sorry you don't get it.

 

[Mr Men]

And MS have exclusive advertising rights do they?
