Back in a lecture over four years ago, a fellow student showed me a video that would amaze me beyond belief. Loading up YouTube, which was still very much in it’s infancy then, we waited for the agonisingly slow connection to ready the video. Then, having clicked play, we watched as Altair leapt across rooftops, scaled buildings and fled from pursuers. It was the game of dreams; one that incorporated highly athletic parkour with such freedom and precision wrapped in a fantastic world and setting. Despite the mixed reaction to Altair’s adventure, the attitude towards Ezio in part two was far more favourable – with the game even being nominated in several game of the year categories. Although Brotherhood may be one of those direct-sequels-in-story-but-no t-in-name scenarios it certainly is a stellar sequel certain to nominated yet again.
"Hello everyone, we have more details to share concerning the upcoming decommissioning of online services affecting several AC titles, including additional information regarding the DLC for these titles."
When will you decommission this new one? I’m only asking so I can be happier by not buying it at full price.
The dog Chorizo from FAR CRY 6 has wheelchair legs, so is hardly a decommissioned pet. In fact very useful for digging up dirt.
Immersed Gamer writes: "Ubisoft came out with the announcement that some of their classic titles are shutting down their servers. While this is not entirely surprising, the next bit is quite shocking. As Ubisoft states in regard to many of said classic games, “additionally, the installation and access to DLC will be unavailable”.
The wording is a little vague, so the actual paid DLC could be safe. But it doesn’t change the fact that multiplayer modes of Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood, Rayman Legends, and Driver San Francisco will surely be missed. Especially since no alternative exists in many of those cases. This happens to unveil right next to our story where I essentially beg Atlus to port SMT to modern consoles alongside Persona.
Seems like videogame preservation is on the down-low…"
And you want us to go all digital? This is the bull sh*t that makes me apprehensive to an all digital future. You corpo guys don’t understand game preservation or it’s importance.
Companies who withdraw support should be legally made to patch games to enable the 'owner' to create and host their own MP lobbies. This is theft
Assassin's Creed multiplayer hasn't been a thing for well over half a decade. That's a good reason to bring it back.
Hey, can we get an Assassin's Creed game without 10+ year old controls that are outdated and filled with bugs that gets ignored that includes progress breaking bugs from launch that aren't fixed even months after launch?
If you an assassin's like MP mode, I'd recommend Ghost of Tsushima Legends instead.
