Gamer Headlines writes: As I’ve already discussed in detail though, this is just a taste of much of the sloppy work to be found in Assassins Creed Unity. With core concepts like combat, stealth and climbing all suffering heavily, plus oddly lengthy load times, you have to wonder what the hell has gone wrong during development. More patches are most certainly incoming that could fix the unresponsive climbing and combat controls, but there’s no fixing the generic tasks that plague the over-stuffed map. Fingers crossed co-op can be salvaged though. At least the main story missions have been fleshed out with additional objectives that have a clear impact on the mission itself. For now though, it may be worth checking out Assassin’s Creed Rogue instead.

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.
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
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.
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.
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.
Odyssey is a really well-made RPG game ... but it ain't a proper AC game, even though its part of the lore
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.
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.
Ubi you went n done it. Nice job
I havnt had problems. Maybe it's rare. I've seen a couple crowd glitches but it doesn't affect the gameplay. 2 x the framerate dipped and a few times my traversal has gone wrong.
To me though, it doesn't bother me. Once u learn how to travel and don't press the wrong buttons, u r fine.
To me, this is the best AC to date. Everything is better, it's Co op, and Paris is a marvel. Not sure about the full story. It may not end up being as good as Ezio's, but overall, despite the 900p, it's quite good. And i am usually quite harsh.
they should do this for all broken games. maybe then publishers will sharpen up
Thank the lord someone mentions the horrid climbing in a negative light. All other flop reviews praise it simply because you can descend easier, as if that is the end-all be-all to the climbing.
Bookmarked for legit review.
