Report? Don't they always do this?
In other news, water is still wet.
I don't mind, gives them more time to give the game some finishing touches.
I don't mind this in the slightest. Hopefully it means they're spending more time perfecting the port.
Hopefully they'll use that extra time to make it a good pc port
I should state that I'm very angered by this because the next school year gets very tough around Mid-November and I was hoping to finish this game before things got rough. (better response than FUCK NO FUCK FUCK)
Oh no shit I didn't see this coming wow totally took me by surprise. [sp]If they do this to Watch Dogs I actually will be pissed.[/sp]
Think all the DLC in the special editions means I will be waiting on the GOTY edition they seem to bring out the next year for half the price. Must be a bummer though wonder if the same will happen for Far Cry 3.
only a month this time? wow
[QUOTE=Guided;36444652]only a month this time? wow[/QUOTE] hah, of course it'll be delayed another 3 months as soon as we're 2 months away from release it always happens
[QUOTE=TDocter;36443621]I don't mind, gives them more time to give the game some finishing touches.[/QUOTE] do you still believe they delay PC versions of games just so they can finish it? Its marketing.
Ah. Another free-to-play title then? [editline]23rd June 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=usaokay;36443750]or to install a new DRM.[/QUOTE] Instead of always on DRM, they'll be sending a CCTV cam that has to hang in the corner when you're playing the game. A Webcam will be required to confirm its placement VIA livestream back to Ubisoft. It will have to be clearly visible and centered since they're going to be relying on Monkeys and Australians to monitor and give an OK to launch the game.
No surprise there, hence why all my Assassin's Creed titles are on PS3.
Why do they even bother saying the PC version is coming out on the same day as the consoles? Every Asssassin's Creed game on PC has been delayed.
[QUOTE=TDocter;36443621]I don't mind, gives them more time to give the game some finishing touches.[/QUOTE] Some one always says this, and they are always wrong.
[QUOTE=T-Sonar.0;36444480]If they do this to Watch Dogs I actually will be pissed.[/QUOTE] they will lol
Didn't see this coming, nope [editline]23rd June 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=TDocter;36443621]I don't mind, gives them more time to give the game some finishing touches.[/QUOTE] They aren't delaying it for finishing touches. They do it because of PC Pirating. They aren't Delaying the game, they're sitting on the game. But saying they're sitting on it would harm their immaculate image
What's the point of delaying it on PC? It can't be pirates because, someone is just going to make a crack within hours just to bypass the drm. ...Oh wait, it's Ubisoft.

Ubisoft PR: It's October 30th. GameSpy: Uh huh. And can you say that with a straight face? Ubisoft PR: You can ask me as many times as you like, but the answer will be the same. GameSpy: Very well, let's move on. So, when will you announce the delay of the PC version? Ubisoft PR: ...[/quote] :v:
So does Shacknews just take rumors, report them as fact and make misleading titles? Mostly yes. It's probable, but it's not a FACT.
It takes time to come up with new shitty ideas for DRMs.
Taking more time to develop more invasive, restricting, and buggy DRMs, no doubt. It will probably require you to scan your driver's license, let your webcam compare it to your face, and paypal Ubisoft a dollar every time you launch the game.
Why, Ubisoft.
At this point this doesn't seem like news; grass grows, birds fly, sun shines, and Assassin's Creed for PC comes out later than the console versions. Them announcing that the PC version will be on-time; THAT would definitely be news to me.
"Assassin's Creed delayed on PC" "Air is good" Seriously, this is why I just buy AC on consoles. Got the first 3 games on 360, got revelations on my PS3, and I'm getting AC3 on PS3. Plus, this is one of those games I can't imagine playing on a keyboard.
So I guess it takes just under a month for them to give the game a liberal dousing of UPlay.

Nevermind.
Shock horror, no one saw this coming.
