If this is all accurate, I feel terrible for those that have pre-ordered this game.
-The game's frame rate is atrocious. Not as bad as Unity's, at least not so far, but it doesn't make it any better.
It's great, too. Definitely the best Assassin's Creed game since the first, which was the best of the whole series before. Highly recommend it. Loved it. A+ game.
Very excited for Syndicate based on how great Unity was.
It's really fucking sad to see what Ubisoft has done with this franchise.
i think the real issue of Unity is the boooooooring gameplay and not the technical problems.
wtf this game is coming out on Friday? Yikes

Yep. I bought Unity on day 1 and never had any major issues with it. I thought it was the best since AC2. Seemed to me most of the hullaballoo was based on reports of glitches in pre-day 1 non-patched version of the game. Just like what's happening to Syndicate right now in this thread. Everyone's going to get it into their heads that Syndicate is a buggy broken piece of shit, whether it turns out to be true after the day 1 patches or not.
just some very quick bulletpoints because I am really pissed by all the seemingly unwarranted hate the game is gettingn reddit and on gaf these days (and it's not even out yet)
- finished the full game last weekend (PS4)
- day one patch (1.11) is ~250mb (some people don't appear to have it installed)
- does not look as good as Unity but it's still pretty (it's by no means "ugly" as everyone on the internet currently makes it out to be)
- framerate appeared to be smooth with the occasional dips here and there, noticed no terrible slowdowns
- no major glitches for me during my initial playthrough (carriages physics are admittedly wonky, yes)
- parkour is smoother, still clunky, but way better than Unity
- I personally like the setting, Jacob is an idiot, Evie is just lovely, together they make a good team
any questions? just shoot
Well he doesn't have the day one patches, so it's not complete. No need to jump to conclusions.
Bullshit
I'm not an Ac fan, the only two I liked was Ac2 and Black Flag. i think the real issue of Unity is the boooooooring gameplay and not the technical problems.
I think Syndacate, after just a couple of hours, is one of the best game in the franchise.
Your turn, haters
Is Unity in fact safe to play on PS4 now? Been curious about next-gen AC after finally upgrading.
He was banned? :/Not touching this game with a 10 foot pole. Crossing Eden is rolling in his Gaf Grave not being able to respond to this.

Apparently there will be two patches on the day it's released. Pretty ridiculous, but at least they're working on it.

At least AC ships with all the chapters in and not missing a third of the ganr ¯_(ツ_/¯They desperately need to STOP annualizing this franchise. They're producing these massively on a conveyor belt. The attention to quality and passion just isn't there. Compare that to the 5 year in the making non annualized open world MGSV and it's not even a competition.

Then we have other impressions right here on GAF:
Posted by Funo in the makeshift OT. And even others who are reviewing it have noted that they are also enjoying it. Opinions vary, so draw your own conclusions.
I'll let you in on a secret: Day one patches are most of the time available days ahead of launch.
Wow. I have to disagree with you hardly regarding the first AC. Of course, it's just my opinion but I firmly believe AC2 is the best one by far.It's great, too. Definitely the best Assassin's Creed game since the first, which was the best of the whole series before. Highly recommend it. Loved it. A+ game.

So he's basically playing it without the first-day patch then?
If this is all accurate, I feel terrible for those that have pre-ordered this game. That being sad, hopefully this will spur Ubisoft to just put a bullet into this IP's head, it "jumped the shark" a long time ago anyway.

That video make me want to praise the sunWhat the fuck is up with Ubisoft and people floating in the air?
