oh no

I'd hold off if I were you.

Well I already payed it off, and I can return it within 7 days if it is really that bad, so I will get it tomorrow and see for myself.

I hope you enjoy it.

I got nothing to lose, I get my money back if I don't like it. I just like to see these things for myself.

I'm just taking the safe route and waiting for the fixes.
All of the free games from GwG and DA:I will hold me over.

Just saw a video comparing both versions of the game. Xbox had a better optimised game since it usually had more frames.

So far, Rogue has been the far superior Assassin's Creed game this year.  Unity looks fun and I WANT it to be fun, but it's just so fucking sad when the frame rates drop in large crowds (and Ubisoft said that it wouldn't happen), the camera fucks up...I've even had it fucking lag on me.  LAG.  IN SINGLE PLAYER.

I also froze up on Arno's first Eagle Dive into the river.  Like, after the cutscene he climbed up onto a ledge without my saying so and would not move at all.  The pause menu didn't show up, despite saying "PAUSE MENU" in the corner.  I had to close and re-open the fucking game.

Unity has a good thing going for it and I want to do all this cool shit Ubisoft was hyping up, but the glitches, FPS drops and other messes just make this game unenjoyable.  I haven't quit on it, but I'm losing interest.

For now, stick with Rogue.  I wasn't able to enjoy the sidequests and powered through the single-player so I could get rid of it and my 360, but I'm regretting it so far.

I'm waiting for the PS4 version instead.

I'm really sad about Unity, because it looks brilliant when it's not bugging out or going into slideshow mode.
Hopefully they fix it asap.

I know, but the thing is it shouldn't HAVE to be fixed.  You'd think after a terrible reception to Watch_Dogs earlier this year Ubi would've learned their lesson.

This just feels like AC3 2.0.  Introduce new engine, hype fuck out of game, lots of glitches and malfunctions because of the new shit they added.

Eh. Played 2+3, didn't like them. Have up on the franchise.

I swear I thought they hyped a new engine because they said they were building it from "the ground up" >.>

Also, the combat is reminiscent of Assassin's Creed 1 and 2, so it's no longer a counter-attack-combo-kill fest that had made combat a laughable breeze the past few games.

Parkour and combat was redone from the ground up.


I know. The combat finally poses a challenge instead of just counter kill to insta-kill.

But combat was already laughably easy in AC 1 and 2. It's one of my main gripes with the series, taking down heaps of enemies who, instead of just going after you, decide to simply stand around in a circle and politely take turns attacking the player one at a time.

Yeah.

I enjoyed AC2 when it came out free with Games with Gold, but I haven't replayed it ever since I finished it. Fun game, interesting story, but the combat is so easy and the game is so easy in general that it just doesn't have any replay value. The assassinations can be done as brutally and loud as possible in the middle of a crowd in broad daylight, because you can just jump in some hay and hide or outrun the guards. Or just straight up kill them then run off.

It's fun. I really did enjoy it, but I wouldn't buy a single game of the series. It's just way too easy.

I've died or been spotted multiple times in Unity at least. Guards with guns are assholes. It's definitely more difficult.

It's flipped logic for guards. I step two places away from a massive crowd and they flip shit. Or one mission there were thousands of people but they single me out, lol.

On top of all its technical issues, the game isn't even fun. I'm so pissed off, I've wasted so much money this year on shitty games; Watch Dogs, Destiny and now Unity.

Literally,  the best game I've played this ear is second son. And if that doesn't say something I don't know what will.

Next year at Ubisoft:
