Should You Give Ubisoft a Break On Assassin’s Creed Unity?

This week is not a great one for Ubisoft. They've been hit relatively hard for their slightly lackluster release of Assassin's Creed: Unity, with reviewers finding the game less than perfect in some cases and downright unplayable in others. But what if Ubisoft had waited? What if they delayed again - past the two weeks delay they'd noted back in August? At what point does it make sense to release a product that's unfinished? At what point does a development team have to stop and release?

Hell No! I earn my money. Why shouldn't they have to earn theirs?
Don't over hype your game if you can't deliver. Don't then hide behind shoddy review embargoes, and then expect a free pass on a faulty product.

Gamers, come on guys! You wouldn't accept this crap from any other consumer product - for goodness sake don't accept it from the gaming industry. We love it too much to let it slide down the crap hole.

"You wouldn't accept this crap from any other consumer product"

Damn right, I took my McDonalds Big Mac back once because it didn't have any gherkins in it, I got a refund and a new Big Mac

The Division is going to be the biggest disappointment

couldn't agree more, has gaming fallen so bad that we award cooperation for providing shoddy products when there are others out there who provide better products but don't get our attention.

The AC games should not be a yearly franchise ubisoft saw the opportunity to milk the franchise and are now paying the price and some gamers are fine with this treatment? some even go as far to say its not as broken.... wait what it should not be broken in the first place,I think I need a break from the internet

nope, I think Ubisoft should take a break on milking assassins creed just like cod and on top of that they should stop with their BS excuses and releasing unfinished games and blaming others for their mistake such as AMD

Ubisoft are doing great damage to their image. I hope gamers speak with their wallets

Lousy writing, we don't fork out money expecting half a game!

Hanzala from eXputer: "With Ubisoft's practices becoming increasingly anti-consumer lately, the destruction of The Sands of Time Remake looks almost inevitable."

Hey Ubi, here's a gun, don't shoot yourself in the foot.

*Ubi takes gun, aims at foot, empties clip*

At this point, only dummies have any hope left for Ubi-junk games.

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.
