With all the bad press surrounding unity I think I'll pass on it for a long while. Ubi really needs to sort themselves out as now I'm worried about the division and rainbow six siege.

febzilla3598d ago

There are patches that need to happen before the game can be an enjoyable one. Playing co-op for the first time was a disaster. It kept booting my friend. I kept falling through the ground. It was not fun trying to play this game the first two days.

Aside from FPS drops the game really isn't all that bad mate. I'm enjoying it.

starchild3597d ago

I've been playing the game for a few days and it has run well for me on my PC. No crashes, no significant glitches, decently good framerates considering the scale and how good it looks. I also think it is a great game. I agree with those reviewers who gave it 9s and 8s. That is in line with my experience of the game.

DoctorJones3598d ago

Looks like a great game. Ubisoft have released a lot of great games this year.

SPAM-FRITTER-1233598d ago

I'd say that belongs to Black Flag but Unity is a great game..

skulz73597d ago

The gameplay is fantastic. In fact it fixes 80% of the issues from the past games, it just unfortunately launched with tons of bugs and glitches. If it didn't it could have been the best AC game yet.

starchild3597d ago

Which system are you playing it on? I have only had minor glitches with NPCs getting stuck, suddenly appearing, moving strangely, etc. I mean, those are annoying glitches, but they don't happen all the time and they personally don't detract too much from my experience.

I think they were just a little too over-ambitious with the crowds in this game. I'm torn, though, because on one hand I think the crowds are impressive as hell and really add to the spectacle of the game, as well as mattering for gameplay reasons, but on the other hand the massive number of NPCs are the root of most of the glitches I have experienced.

Overall though the game astounds me with it's detail, scale and overall graphical quality. It's the best looking game I have played on my PC and I also happen to think it is a great game.

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

andy85194d ago (Edited 194d ago )

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

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

Furesis673d 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.

DarXyde672d 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.

YourMommySpoils672d ago

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

Knightofelemia673d 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.

RaidenBlack673d ago

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

ToddlerBrain673d 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.

staticall672d 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.

anast672d ago

Unity was okay. I prefer Syndicate and Origins.
