Nice, hopefully this will be reflected in Watch dogs, AC UNITY, The crew, etc.

Ubisoft looking good. Theirs only 1 thing they can improve and that is to stop copying ideas of their previous games (i.e. far cry towers, ac synchs, crafting systems, etc,etc)

GarrusVakarian3658d ago (Edited 3658d ago )

You forgot to mention the (locate>follow>kill) mission structure in almost every single mission in AC. Gets so damn boring.

goldwyncq3658d ago

That sums up about 90% of Black Flag's missions.

TitanUp3658d ago

that sums up a lot of games, most games is go kill this go fetch this while killing things.

if a game objective is to pick up 5 items usually you have to fight enemies at each point to get the objective item.

no matter how its worded you are basically killing things in almost every game so you can reach point c.

randomass1713658d ago

Yeah, that's why I fell out of grace with AC. It's a little too monotonous for me.

ironfist923658d ago

Tbh, they have quality with Quantity, they have a wide variety of awesome games, and all of them are great.

Master-H3658d ago

ALl of them you say..including The Fighter Within ?

randomass1713658d ago

Not always. Ubisoft does release a few shovelware titles alongside their AAA material.

Summons753658d ago

True but you can't have multiple games at AAA Quality without the high quantity of people to support them. Ubisoft pumps out multiple high quality games every year, they need the manpower to make sure they can keep the train rolling.

Otherwise you are correct.

randomass1713658d ago

A large studio full of people is a tad different from a large quantity of games being released. That said a huge team of developers is necessary for Ubisoft to produce the amount of games they release each year.

AgentSmithPS43658d ago

Cool story bro, now give us a great watch dogs experience, or people will say things like "the bigger they are the harder they fall." ;)

randomass1713658d ago

Sheesh. Ain't that the truth.

Harmonizer3658d ago

Ubisoft certainly released a lot of good games lately, which are not even remotely as buggy as EA's.

This news suits me just fine

JOEgolferG3658d ago

Of all the big companies Ubisoft is my favourite. Quality game's.

Agent20093658d ago (Edited 3658d ago )

In before sweeeet disagreeeeees.

LAWSON723658d ago (Edited 3658d ago )

What are the big companies? EA, Activision, Ubi, SE,take-two. If these are them take-two and Square are way better than Ubi. IMO Take-Twos Borderlands, GTA, Civ, Bioshock, XCOM and RDR are way better than every Ubi game this gen by far.

JOEgolferG3657d ago

Square and Take Two are obviously big as well, but Ubi has the better idea's overall not to mention the superior graphics compared to all those mentioned.

LAWSON723657d ago (Edited 3657d ago )

@joe

Sorry bud graphics dont make games. No game ever made by Ubi has ever compared to any of those franchises, of course IMO. The only fantastic game they made last gen that blew me away was AC2. The day Ubi makes an open world action game as amazing as GTAV and RDR please let me know because I dont see it happening and same goes for when they make a creative and atmospheric game as good as Bioshock, a fun as hell coop game like Borderlands, or even a turn based game like XCOM and Civ.

You ask me Take-Two craps on almost every big name publisher except Nintendo.

JOEgolferG3656d ago (Edited 3656d ago )

Well all I can say to that is let's see what Watchdog's brings to the table.
P.S Take-Two doe's crap on Nintendo lol

Ubisoft's Recent Antics Have Me Fearful For The Sands of Time Remake

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

thorstein8d ago (Edited 8d ago )

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

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

Chocoburger7d ago

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

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.
https://www.theverge.com/20...

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.

jznrpg28d ago (Edited 28d ago )

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.
