Ubisoft has released a new live-action trailer for ‘Assassin’s Creed 3′ directed at its European audience. As stunning as it may be, its tone is distinctly unique from the marketing seen here in the United States.
Behind XDefiant's toxic work culture, crunch, delays, and a group of directors and managers internally referred to as 'The Boys Club'.
Man the industry just keeps on going with all this bs and to think this is ubisoft again remember what happened with that skull bones team same crap.

This game will be tossed out broken unplolished with a bloated budget trying to be cod but will fail sense ubi can get there shit in order. If i was me i would have gotten rid of this boys club asap there is alot looking for work out there.
Every industry has these issues
Some companies I’ve worked for were great and some were toxic as hell (UPS when I was a teenager was extremely toxic and I have heard it still is) It all starts at the top. They either hold people accountable , set standards and treat people with respect or the crap rolls downhill.
Skull and Bones surprises with second-highest player engagement in Ubisoft's history, marking an unexpected success story.
Funny how all the clickhate was trying to spin that it was "struggling" to reach these very numbers.
Over 700 Ubisoft staff in France strike due to failed salary talks, highlighting a major dispute over fair compensation.
Ubisoft is eroding from within. They used to be such a great publisher, but their hubris, greed, ignorance, and willingness to embrace crappy business practices such as intentionally releasing broken games with a "patch it later" mentality just so they can garner Black Friday sales, their in-game cash shops to sell you virtual junk, over priced collectors editions where their price increases but their quality remains the same, giant open bland land masses to explore packed with copy & paste boring filler side quests designed to waste your time with menial tasks.
And let's not forget their employees constantly getting pissed at the executives treating them like crap, which has been an on-going problem for years. Yeah, Ubisoft had rightfully earned their title of Ubi-junk.
What a shame.
Couldn't happened to a more deserving company. Here's to a AAAA Strike for all those well deserved AAAA Salaries.
🖕 Choke on it U-beSawft.
The industry is hitting some issues I'm seeing games not selling as well, Sony projections are down, games cost way too much to make and are not hitting return on investment, and now employees demanding to be paid more.
It reminds me of the movie industry. The cost to make movies aren't making their money back yet you have everyone demanding to be paid more. The things that needs to change are cost of development including employee/contractor wages, and I'd even say to lower the MSRP on games. I know they are trying like hell to monetize games to bring in recurring revenue like mobile games, but that's not the answer. The onus is on the industry to correct this and I think the way to do it is cutting back on costs.
I don't see how employees can demand to be paid more when sh*t like Skull and Bones isn't bringing back money and god knows how much they spent on the development of that game. I think I remember seeing that after Black Flag or when Sea of Thieves was announced.
It's directed at Europe and yets it still give off a pro American vibe to it...what the hell gives.
They should be showing the total opposite, they should be backing up what they've said in the past about Connor being netural and not trying to make one side look evil. This was their chance and they've failed to do that...again
"When I decide...it will be them, not us"
As redcoats destroy the house to kill an American mother and her children...well done Ubisoft /s
AND THEN...Showing "RISE" as Connor has just slaghtered Redcoats taking from the Pro American E3 trailer.
This trailer just prooves that in AC3 the redcoats will be evil for the majority of the game and Connors main side will be the Americans. You can't say he's going to be on both sides and not show one single bit of footage of him doing a British mission.
I wouldn't be that arsed about this if Ubisoft wern't bloody cowards and just admitted it instead of filling gamers heads with lies to cover their arses but this type of marketing all because of greed is ridiculous. It's not about that British people are being killed for me...it's just the horrible lies and terrible marketing.
At least someone made an article on this and pointed it out...finally.
Honestly I hate when developers lie, they loose all respect from me.
WAIT! This game was meant to be about connor working both sides...
This is a brittish trailer as stated by Mikecosgrove, They should be showing both sides what is this now 2nd or 3rd trailer now.
I am planning on buying this game just like i have since AC 1,2, brotherhood,revalations. But i wont be happy if all i see is nearly all this game is about one sided, Witch is clearly what it looks like to me.
Yes im brittish but i like to see this game the way ubisoft said it was going to be so i can follow a good story.
....who cares if they are killing redcoats in the media...are people really that over sensitive?
