Currently playing Revelations and hope xfire/sli works by the time I get to Unity. D:

That's where i gave up on the AC franchise.
I made one mistake, i kept buying AC games with no intention of playing them.

I only really liked Black Flag. I was going to give Unity a bash but after the initial reviews and comments of problems i gave it a miss. It's now getting more likely that i won't be buying it at least not at full price. Had Ubisoft done a proper job the likely hood is i would have completed it by now.

The shame is however, that it does look pretty and the game is actually quite good. It's just performance which is crap. It's a bit like Watch Dogs. Technically broken.

And this is why I have always said I hope this company goes bust! least then the games could be bought out by a company that really gives a dam.

And anyone saying its only PC that has the issues you be very wrong..
I have had the same bugs in both PC and console from Game save corrupt to Online never working, even to this day I don't think they fixed Ghost Recon future solider's Online on PS3.

Now you expect a new game to have some issue and be patched, but why is it that a Ubisoft game takes so long to even patch a game? I mean look at how long FC4 is taking?

Didn't ubisoft blame AMD at one point for one of their games running bad? Can't remember which one that was. The balls they got blaming anyone for their sloppy development. TBH i dont think it's nvidia nor game works im sure if Ubisoft took the time and effort to use gameworks properly it would work fine and other problems wouldn't exist too such as SLI problems or xfire or bugs n glitches. Just bad PR and bad as a business so far.

Untill gamers take notice and refuse to buy their games they wont take any notice.

You're thinking of far cry 3, multi card regardless of which camp broke the game, Ubisoft blamed amd and nvidia, claiming it was a driver issue, both replied with 'nope your game is broken' evidently it wasn't as 10 months and many patches later it was magically fixed

No it wasn't , it was better, CF/SLI worked, but its still a stuttering mess, like FC4.

 

[Tonester0011]

FC3 was horrendous.
The stutter on FC4 is nothing compared to that game, lol.

 

[pgi947]

Well, defined fixed as became somewhat playable, by that point I had zero interest in the game so only have an hour or so on it. FC4 isn't too bad on the latest beta drivers, the ghosting has gone but still get the random 50+fps frame rate dives for no apparent reason, again it's getting left well alone by me.

Ubisoft have a team that are fantastic at marketing a product, every other area is dire. A combination that will always end in disappointed customers.

EA must be loving this though, it's really taken the spot light off of them.

 

[Gregster]

Sorry I disagree with Greg as I don't think Jamielicious gets it.

The fault isn't with anyone company but it's with the likes of us the gamer and the consumer who time and time and time again will go out and willing handover £30 for broken, unfinished, buggy games. Unless people wake up and recognise their buying Alpha releases game publishers have zero reason to change paths and we can all expect to be treated like the fools and get ploughed up the backside the next time a AAA title is due for release.

If I were Jen I would seriously have consider Nvidia's ongoing relationship with Ubisoft, having your brand associated with the rubbish Ubisoft puts out isn't good for them especially considering Nvidia's core market and how noisy the PC community are about bad game developers.

Perhaps if Nvidia did put out a press release which effectively dissolved their relationship it might shame Ubisoft into change?

Yer, some very good points there Freddie

 

[Silent_Scone]

Nvidia aren't likely to dissolve anything at the moment, they're too focused on Tegra that they've probably not even realised that people are making the association
