Support NeoGAF

[StuBurns]

Using the Gyro to turn would have been cool
As a DS owner I take offence sir!

Spoiler

Fair point though

It seems like people can't win. Either it's just a port, and that's lazy, or you pick up some old artifact and you have to scrub it clean with your finger, then they've babyified the game for the Wii U audience.

 

[Zero-Crescent]

Because it didn't include specifically horrible lock pick mini game gimmicks?

Because they didn't replace the currently-horrible lockpicking mini-game.

How does the framerate compare to the x360/ps3 version? I never saw AC games on console but there are some framerate issues in the wiiu version.

From what I'm seeing the framerate drops on the same sections as the PS3 version that I t own. Wii U hardware isn't helping this game run any better at all. Actually this ship part might be worse than I remember.

 

[Y2Kev]

it looks choppy. but ac3 on 360 and ps3 ran like total shit so i would not be surprised

 

[Zero-Crescent]

That bloody ship. One of the most dragging parts of the game.

 

[Coolwhip]

Holy shit, so many cinematics. This is why I don't play cinematic games.

 

[bucknuticus]

Wish they would get into more exclusive games, watching games already out is not exciting at all. Especially when those games do nothing interesting on the 2nd screen.

 

[Sophia]

He keeps preforming a counter and not a parry, lol...

 

[jett]

Those bloody first several hours

fixed

They already uploaded three, hour long quicklooks of the exclusive launch games so what do you want to see? I am sure they will get to sing party soon.

Edit: By soon I mean by 11pm at this rate

 

[StuBurns]

They need to show Ninja Gaiden, it's the only potentially decent thing left.

 

[Conciliator]

Assassin's Creed 3 looking mostly status quo.

Did not know this, I will go watch them now!

Thanks!

 

[cyberheater]

Nice to know a USB ethernet adaptor will work. I'll get one.

 

[Candeldandel]

Eeee!! I wanna see the baby yoshis on the new Mario game!

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Frozen

 

[Twilight Princess]

what's the other "big" guy's name who's not jeff?

 

[Impeccable]

Frozen, lol

 

[StuBurns]

what's the other "big" guy's name who's not jeff?

Ryan.

 

[Gattsu25]

The obnoxious one that's always talking like he has something interesting to say (but doesn't)?

That's Ryan

 

[Sophia]

That makes two streams I've seen so far where the system has frozen. Oi oi.

 

[Effect]

Mine just froze up as well a few minutes ago as well. Crazy.

 

[theDeeDubs]

Mine hung at the same spot, but it eventually started. Thought it was a weird loading screen since there's no where to hit to progress or a "now loading" message on it.

how dare you

 

[giancarlo123x]

Pulling the power cord. How dangerous.

 

[Zero-Crescent]

There were some other parts that needed trimming, but the ship part was the most blatantly dragging section of the game. It was "fight tutorial, talk to these people about the mutiny, follow this guy, talk to more people about the mutiny, turns out all that talking was pointless because

Spoiler

there was no mutiny

, arrive in Boston for the late title card. And none of these people ever appear again." They could have easily shortened it to "Fight tutorial, see the results of 'mutiny,' arrive in Boston."

Spoiler

I mean, at least the other parts of the beginning served to introduce the villains and settings. The ship part was pretty much pointless filler that kills the pacing that the opera house set up.

 

[cyberheater]

Had to pull the power cord. LOL. That's bad.

 

[Booshka]

PULL THE CORD

 

[maniac-kun]

Hm maybe ill wait a little to get a Wii U

[vilmer_]

Holy load time :/

 

[Hoo-doo]

thanks, what about the teenager? i know the better looking dude's brad.

Patrick Klepek AKA Scoops AKA Tricky.

 

[Threi]

Lol gaf shoutout

 

[Broken Hope]

That loading time is horrible for apps, they better fix this shit up for the EU and JP launches.

 

[giancarlo123x]

Saw that "Shoutout to NeoGaf" friend request. lol

 

[BlueMagic]

Someone shoutouted at neogaf.

 

[Gattsu25]

thanks, what about the teenager? i know the better looking dude's brad.

Patrick. If you remember exxy from older GAF days, that's him.

 

[Kandinsky]

Holy crap, that took like 15 seconds.

 

[TheChits]

I'm fortunate to not have experienced any of these problems

 

[opticalmace]

OS seems really slow.

 

[Twilight Princess]

wow, patrick looks like he just hit puberty

 

[Tucah]

Holy shit this OS is slow.

 

[StuBurns]

Going from PS3 to the marginally slower 360 OS is irritating, this looks like it'd suck my humanity right out.

 

[Data West]

Holy shit this OS is slow.

but it's the ultimate way to interact with your tv!

 

[Bumhead]

That's he first time I've seen the OS but.. wow. That's really not acceptable at all.

 

[Twinduct]

Nintendo's got alot of work ahead of them. Gonna have to crunch on getting that shit moving quicker. It's borderline inexcusable! (Talking about the OS level stuff ... not the game loads and etc)

 

[KageZero]

They have to fix the loading problem with apps. It really takes long like 10 secs just to show you the friend list, how couldn't they see this as a problem while testing. ..

It may not be the prettiest but I love the XMB for how quick it is to navigate.
