These past few years Ubisoft has closed their E3 show with an impressive game that generated a lot of excitement. In 2012 we saw Watch Dogs, last year it was The Division, and this year they ended with Rainbow Six: Siege. Each of these games was very impressive upon the initial reveal and looked to be doing interesting and innovative new things. However, now that Watch Dogs has come out looking much less visually impressive than originally seen and revealing itself to pretty much be nothing more than a decent urban open world game, many are questioning whether Ubisoft games can be trusted to turn out as good as they initially seem.
from paulsemel.com: In this exclusive Q&A, the author of the new technothriller based on "Tom Clancy's: The Division" discusses how it ties to the games while also bringing its own story to a close.
If you're looking to try out an exciting, team-based shoot 'em up, The Division is currently on sale on Steam!
TIM WHITE WRITES: "Multiplayer or single player? Developers, you can do both, just not willy-nilly."
I hate when I see single player games and see people begging for multi-player. Jeez guys it don't need to be on every game. Latest one I seen was atomic heart.
Multiplayer or even co-op
If it was always a single player game then that's how it is
It's a trend that never really went away. For me multiplayer in a primarily SP focused game was an excuse for DLC. Then there's the mentality gamers had that adding multiplayer makes a game worth the price, otherwise it should be half price for half a game. A way of thinking devs reassured when they started adding multiplayer to their sequels. We see the same with multiplayer focused games getting SP in their sequels.
Tbh multilayer now is a way to add live service and mtx elements, very rarely does it come of well.
What single players game used to be in a lot of cases now require 3 other people for keeping to really enjoy it and I hate having to rely on others to get the maximum from a game.
Sp should be sp, if devs want to add a separate multi mode then that's fine with me, the legends addition to ghost of tshushima was fricking sick but totally separate to the main game. Sick of co op too.
I remember when certain single player games had them as included optional modes that was played on the couch. Had brilliant times with Syphon Filter and Golden Eye. Me and my bro used to used to fight over who would play as Gabe even though it was technically just a skin. Good times.
I think when Ubisoft proclaimed it to be "the most detailed game ever made," the game lost its chance to.
Why don't you tell us gaming media?!
You're the ones constantly hyping games. Building them up and then knocking them down with constant articles.
Please find some real news to report on. Watch Dogs is the biggest selling new IP Ubisoft has ever had... So I'm guessing a large chunk of those people are enjoying the game. Certainly the abundance of Twitch streamers seem to like it.
Was the game at this E3 event really running on xbox
one?? or was it PC
can we expect downgrade /s
I'm just waiting to see The Division running on a ps4 or xbone. Until that happens, I remain skeptical. But when I look at Far Cry 4 and Assassin's Creed Unity running on consoles, I have hope they can deliver.
