Damn one of the best looking games I've ever seen

Th4Freak3463d ago

So you haven't seen many games huh? I mean dont take it wrong, it looks great but saying that its one of the best looking games, I dont know.

Aloren3463d ago

Are you serious ? how many better looking games can you think of ?

Dudebro903463d ago

Troll troll troll your boat gently down your agenda.

Th4Freak3463d ago

-> @Aloren Far Cry 4, Sunset Overdrive, Lords of the Fallen, Infamous Second Son, Ryse: Son of Rome, Bloodborne, Killzone Shadow Fall, Dragon Age Inquisition, Metal Gear Solid V, Halo: The Master Chief Collection, The Witcher 3, The Order: 1886, Final Fantasy XV, Dying Ligh.

There are plenty of games that look better, again AC Unity looks great, there's no denying but I don't think that its ONE OF THE BEST looking games out there.

-> @Dudebro90 So i'm a troll because i'm saying that it looks great but its not on the top? Awesome logic.

Aleithian3463d ago

@Th4Freak

I'll give you some of those, but Ryse, Halo, and Dying Light don't look better than this.

And Aloren's point doesn't accurately reflect what the original commenter said. The original claim was just that this is one of the best looking games he/she had seen. This is entirely compatible with those games you mention looking better. But you accept that in your comment implicitly, so I'm not really disagreeing with you.

Anyone who says this game doesn't look good really needs their eyes checked. Ubisoft has pulled off an amazing presentation with AC:U. Graphics are great, and Paris looks alive and massive. Very, very impressive work, even if it is a downgrade from what was shown.

Aloren3463d ago

@Th4freak Well, imo, when you have to pick more than half of your 15 or so examples among unreleased titles, and when the rest are very much a matter of opinion (eg I'd give your Ryse or the order but not sunset overdrive, DAI, or KZ SF), I'd say the game still qualifies as one of the most beautiful. My point is that it's not like there's dozens of better looking games.

@Aleithian, I'd say my point reflects the OP's opinion though, I don't wanna speak in his name, but I doubt he meant "One of the best games I've ever seen" as "Well, I haven't seen many games but among the few I've seen this one is one of the best looking", so you may feel Th4Freak was implicitly accepting his opinion when he said "So you haven't seen many games huh?", but I personally thought that came out as a bit condescending.

Anyway, note that I'm not disagreeing with Th4Freak either when he lists some games that can be considered better looking, but when I look at this gameplay footage, I still have a hard time thinking Unity is not up there with the bests.

Rickgrimes953463d ago

So assassins creed can't be on that list? Paris built on a 1:1 scale with incredible detail took them a year and a half just to design Notre dame far cry 4 looks amazing but I think AC will have more detail and plus how do you compare third person games with first person games?

choppy frame rate,animations are top notch!game looks good

Matt6663463d ago

It looks good, F**k knows why people are complaining about it, I can't wait to play it

Aleithian3463d ago

The graphics have been downgraded from the initial footage, which bothers a lot of people, particularly those on PC/PS4. The parity scandal is also feeding into it, as it the Watch Dogs fiasco.

But to me, this game looks beautiful. There were a few small complaints I had about the graphics in the video, like Notre Dame's roof texture and the drop in quality on the other side of the Seine. But these are MINOR complaints. Overall, the graphics were very impressive and a definite jump over AC:BF.

The crowd size was also wonderful. I don't know how much it will impact the game, because I've always thought that AC managed to incorporate a decent crowd anyway. I suspect they want to show off some 'big moments', like the seizing of the Bastille, and that's why they opted for massive crowds. Maybe 60fps would have been better - I don't know.

But overall, I'm very impressed with the way this looks at the moment. Won't be getting it early due to DA: Inquisition, but from what I see I have no reservations in buying it eventually.

My one BIG question is how much of Paris is hidden behind that fog in the distance. Paris was a massive city even in 1789, and if they really are going almost 1:1 scale then the map will be unreal. If the rumors of it equaling the entire area of AC:BF are true, then Paris is going to stretch for miles behind that fog.

Metallox3463d ago

The promotional videos were much better. Now Paris looks so pale, like if it needed of a passade of colors. And the crowd seems to be composed by the same people. Still, looks cool, looking forward to it.

SnotyTheRocket3463d ago

Get your eyes checked. It looks exactly the same.

Aleithian3463d ago

It doesn't look *exactly the same, but it's still excellent. Here's a number of areas that have been downgraded:

- reflections/glints
- atmospheric particles
- textures (visible on Notre Dame's roof in this vid)
- building models (e.g. slate roofs were far more 'bumpy' in the original shots)
- character model complexity

Game still looks amazing in my opinion, and the downgrade is nowhere near as much as what we saw in Watch Dogs.

Systemshock23463d ago

Typical downgrade stuff from Ubi, though it will be my first of the series thanks to Paris revolution.

I Played Assassin’s Creed Unity Almost 10 Years Later. It’s (Kinda) Spectacular

Do the NPCs still randomly levitate every now and then? Even years later I noticed they hadn't patched that out

andy8544d ago (Edited 44d ago )

Honestly I loved the PS4 ACs. I'd love next gen ports of Black Flag, Unity and Syndicate

Five small but brilliant maps in games

Small video game maps that are packed with things to do are better than huge but empty maps. Here are five small but brilliant maps in games.

Why Assassin’s Creed Unity remains one of the best games in the series

GF365: "Since the first Assassin’s Creed game, there have been entries up until now. There are more than a few titles that are far from an ideal stealth game. Let’s discuss why 2014’s Assassin’s Creed Unity is one of the best games in the series."

Glitchy as hell and flat story, nah this aint it. AC2, brotherhood and 4 were amazing games in every respective

Furesis522d ago

Yeah i would say brotherhood and 4 were the best for me. I have not played the new ones and Unity was my last one. Seems like i made a good choice.

DarXyde522d ago

I gave up after Revelations. Just couldn't bring myself to care anymore and I got burned out of the gameplay.

Definitely agree on 2 and Brotherhood though. Great games.

YourMommySpoils522d ago

A Ubisoft AC game that's not glitchy? That will be the day.

Knightofelemia523d ago

After constant glitches Arno being boring nah I am good I skipped Unity. I will always like the Ezio trilogy, Black Flag, Rogue, Odyssey, Syndicate. I use to love the franchise but now it feels stale and boring. But my list of favorite entries into the franchise will vary from other players favorite entries.

RaidenBlack522d ago

Odyssey is a really well-made RPG game ... but it ain't a proper AC game, even though its part of the lore

ToddlerBrain522d ago

It’s funny because, at launch, it was universally panned for being unplayable. It’s a great game that holds up today. I’m glad they fixed it.

staticall522d ago

The only good things i remember from Unity are pretty graphics and really good descending mechanics (even though it sometimes didn't make much sense, when your character can drop down from like 10 meter height onto a flagpole perfectly).

Game is glitchy to this day, i was playing in it years after the release date (with all the DLCs) and it's still broken. You had to reload missions too often for my taste (characters do not spawn, you fall through the floor, getting stuck in falling/sitting/aiming animation, hidden blade stop working, assassination target running away at the start of the mission). Story was meh, searching for all the treasures wasn't enjoyable at all. Coop was pretty much useless, i've beaten every coop mission in solo. Helix rifts were awful as well.

Not saying i hate this game or anything, but it got too many problems.

Assassin's Creed (i know it's a controversial opinion) and Assassin's Creed 2 are still great to this day.

anast522d ago

Unity was okay. I prefer Syndicate and Origins.
