This comparison is pretty worthless without a frame counter

gameseveryday3833d ago (Edited 3833d ago )

The frame rate and other details have been mentioned in the article itself.

Edit: Added as annotations.

I'll just wait for Digital Foundry's analysis

skwidd3833d ago (Edited 3833d ago )

Lol. Is this what everyone is saying about broken? Broken as in unplayable? This? Like it runs a little under 30 fps? Ok, 25 fps can be annoying, its average is 27 (so it says). Average on busy streets or at all times while playing most of the game (over 5 hours of it)? The game annoyed me when I first got it but open your eyes people, this game looks great!! And its a good if not great game! Look at it! You're arguing about a few frames.. I don't understand how you still can't just enjoy this game at this point. I feel people are stuck in their anger and they just won't let go. I can name hundreds of actually broken games. This does not look like one.

lsujester3833d ago

While it's not unplayable, my version skipped throughout a lot of the cutscenes and froze a few times in transitions. Combine that with the below 30 framerate and it's annoying enough that while I technically CAN play it, it's just not worth it when there are much better experiences out right now.

@lsujester

Sorry to hear, mate. I understand your level of enjoyment was compromised. The bugs you mention do sound frustrating. I haven't had any of these major bugs. I wonder if you've linked your Uplay account? I heard that its part of it. I personally haven't. Hopefully they fix these bugs that happen to players.

I just didn't see the bugs in the video and argued from the point that people were complaining how the game needed to run smoother than a frame rate and some NPCs that occasionally pop in and some pop in textures. I'd love it to be more seemless but with the amount of detail that we've been given I'm surprised this is even possible. Add to that the experience I had with GTA in the past years was far worse.

lsujester3833d ago

I don't remember if it was or not, I may try playing with it offline, if possible. Maybe that will help.

MadLad3832d ago

Standards are getting pretty low around here, no offense. I barely want to touch anything running thirty. I am accustomed to more, and the experience is actually bothersome because of it. If you're moving from the standard set by the end of last generation, then it's probably not a huge downgrade, but thirty is the absolute bare minimum before sluggishness turns into actually visually seeing and feeling the pauses between frames.
That is rather broken, from my point of view.

Gotta love how it adds frames by removing citizens in most parts.. There's less people moving about since the patch it seems. They be like.. How can we get the frames up and do the smallest amount of work possible?? I know CUT CONTENT! Ubisoft are the new EA no doubt about it.

gamingbolt blows. view it on my phone it loads a blank page, on my laptop it's an ad that won't close.

frostypants3833d ago

Yeah, their site is the worst kind of ad spamming. Note to GamingBolt: you don't need to sell every square inch of your site to ad placements. Seriously, you must spend more time in ad server settings than on content. Pump the brakes...

SPAM-FRITTER-1233833d ago

No adverst for me. Are you using adblocker or anything.

IGiveHugs2NakedWomen3833d ago (Edited 3833d ago )

I don't see any difference. Does anyone see the difference? *chuckle*

How many patches is that for this game now? 7 or 8? That has to be a new record.

ZombieKiller3833d ago

Doesn't matter I sold it at this point as I should have never bought it.

Ubisoft is becoming the new Activision.

thekhurg3833d ago

I tried playing the game last night. It crashes every time I try to jump out of the window at the prison.

Excellent gaming experience.

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

andy85461d ago (Edited 461d 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

Furesis939d 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.

DarXyde939d 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.

YourMommySpoils939d ago

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

Knightofelemia940d 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.

RaidenBlack939d ago

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

ToddlerBrain939d 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.

staticall939d 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.

anast939d ago

Unity was okay. I prefer Syndicate and Origins.
