Need to resist buying at launch, must not fall to pressure.

Need to resist buying a PS4 Laughing

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Mon Oct 06, 2014 6:03 pm

My plan since I got a PS4 and realising the ridiculous prices of brand new games was to buy NBA2K15 on release and PES too (because it's £35 for some reason) but not another game on release till Witcher 3.

They'll likely be sales around Christmas and January which is when I'll get the rest I want but this game is going to try and *bleep* ruin my plan.

This part is *bleep* bullshit though.....

Assassin's Creed Unity will run at 900p/30fps on both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, Ubisoft has confirmed, with the publisher opting to aim for platform parity to avoid discussion over the differences in performance.

"We decided to lock them at the same specs to avoid all the debates and stuff," senior producer Vincent Pontbriand told VideoGamer.com

Why should PS4 owners suffer because the competition's console can't replicate the same specs, I hope this doesn't become a thing.

They are doing it for quite few games already. The exclusive edge could go to Sony because of this if developers really care about getting games out in higher tech. Doubt it since Money is not there.

Unless you are Naughty Dogs :bow:

Tbf money could be there but for different reasons, PS4 has a much larger install base so it's liable to sell more copies.

In any case I'm going to be pissed if they downgrade games I want just because Xbone can't run it.

defeats the purpose of next gen ffs

by M99 Mon Oct 06, 2014 6:30 pm

Funny thing is that Ubisoft did not do this with AC 4 and Watch Dogs which were being marketed with the PS4. Now that Unity is being marketed with Xbox One...

Expect the same shit with The Division.

It's not the first time they're doing this tbh, they did the same thing with the PC port of Watch Dogs. Ubisoft :facepalm:

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Mon Oct 06, 2014 6:40 pm

Exactly M99 which is why I'm concerned, what if the same thing happens with other games being marketed with Xbox One?

If it's just Ubisoft I can sort of deal with it but if others start joining in.....

Can't wait for this game. AC3 was trash & cba with AC4's setting.

Ubisoft have released their 2nd statement in 24 hrs Laughing

Dat damage control.

Ubisoft wrote:We understand how Vincent’s quotes have been misinterpreted," reads the statement Ubisoft sent to IGN. "To set the record straight, we did not lower the specs for Assassin’s Creed Unity to account for any one system over the other.

Assassin’s Creed Unity has been engineered from the ground up for next-generation consoles. Over the past 4 years, we have created Assassin’s Creed Unity to attain the tremendous level of quality we have now achieved on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC. It’s a process of building up toward our goals, not scaling down, and we’re proud to say that we have reached those goals on all SKUs.

At no point did we decide to reduce the ambitions of either SKU. Both benefited from the full dedication of all of our available optimization resources to help them reach the level of quality we have today with the core Assassin’s Creed Unity experience.

Final specs for Assassin’s Creed Unity aren’t cemented yet, but we can say we showed Assassin’s Creed Unity at 900p during our hands-on preview event last week. We’re confident that gamers will be thrilled with the gorgeous graphics and how Paris is brought to life in Assassin’s Creed Unity.

Wasn't gonna buy their rubbish anyway....

Series has sucked since they released that nonsense AC3.

Been downhill from there.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Oct 07, 2014 4:42 pm

AC4 didn't suck.....

AC4.........?

Surely you mean Pirates of the Caribbean......? hmm

by RealGunner Tue Oct 07, 2014 4:44 pm

Didn't like AC1 so gonna hate on all of the other games.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Oct 07, 2014 4:45 pm

In any case it didn't suck lol.

Was one of the best AC games made and it far from sucked.

I never personally played AC1, liked the others apart from Revolution though.

by izzy Tue Oct 07, 2014 4:47 pm

Oh, it sucked........

But then again, I'm one of the few who liked AC1.........

by M99 Tue Oct 07, 2014 4:54 pm

In what way did AC 4 suck? I bet the people who say "its a pirate game not assassins creed" did not get far in the story. It was more of a AC game than 3 was actually. It had the best sandbox of the series, the story was the best thing Ubisoft ever did since Brotherhood and Edward Kenway was a fantastic character who went through the best character development the series ever done. Not to mention the supporting cast is the probably the best of the series and for the first time the story had a satisfactory ending (non cliffhanger).

This is how I rate the series.

AC II
Black Flag
Brotherhood
AC
AC III
Revelations

I loved this scene in Revelations. One of the best moments of the series.

by LeVersacci Thu Oct 23, 2014 11:30 pm

I can't wait for this game ffs.

Heist missions in AC: Unity from the get-go.

Still no heist missions in GTA 5 rofl
