• If Ubisoft developed other franchises
    12 replies, posted
So, admittedly, I'm not the biggest gamer by any means, though one franchise I've always been a BIG fan of was Assassin's Creed. Then, I saw how poorly the new entry; Unity was handled, and it got me wondering, what would it be like if Ubisoft decided to make annual releases of other franchises I was a fan of, like say MGS? [video=youtube;_E9T12D1XKg]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_E9T12D1XKg[/video] Who knows, maybe the long wait for MGSV isn't such a bad thing afterall.
I was expecting something like remaking a game to have tons of those platform-sync points.

Also, given the six 'Dumb' ratings, I apologize if this short wasn't all that amusing to folks, and hope the next one will be more enjoyable for everyone! However, if there's anything you think I should know that could have made it better, I'd love to hear any feedback so I can keep your notes in mind for future shorts!

So we knew what was coming. Problem Dos, dumb chains are normal. One person dumbs, others rate without watching. I actually did it until I watched the video and remembered who you were.

You could have done so many more interesting things with this video.
[QUOTE=KennyAwsum;46561134]You could have done so many more interesting things with this video.[/QUOTE] That's a fair point. Admittedly, I wanted to keep it as brief as possible since I'm still juggling a bunch of other projects at once, and only know of the 'most notable' glitches being talked about from Unity. Though, I do suppose there is a goldmine of missed opportunities with this one: [IMG]http://a.disquscdn.com/get?url=http%3A%2F%2Fimagizer.imageshack.us%2Fa%2Fimg911%2F5272%2F8le6I2.jpg&key=Tzy8R0scGbS2IzVdSV6Xxw&w=600&h=299[/IMG] But I see your point, that it was probably fairly underwhelming, especially the accidental thumbnail spoiler, or if it just dragged on too long to get to the punchline.

Thank you, I'll make sure the thumbnails don't give away stuff like that for futures sake. [QUOTE]even with the thumbnail is was awful[/QUOTE] Was it that it dragged on too long to get to the punchline, or was the punchline itself simply a dud altogether?
I mean graphical glitches can happen to any company. I was expecting something like, "In order to sneak past this guard, play a minigame on our official MGS Android app!"
Since we're giving feedback, I guess a problem was the punchline wasn't very... ubisoft. It didn't feel specific to them, so it ends up feeling really stupid and low hanging fruit.

My assumption has been that the 'No face' bug was something Assassin's Creed Unity specific, since this image was the one I was seeing most in regards to the Unity issues: [QUOTE][IMG]http://static4.gamespot.com/uploads/ignore_jpg_scale_super/1544/15443861/2732023-289650_screenshots_2014-11-11_00006.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
Theoretically this could happen in any game that has eyeball and dental models. I can do it on command in Fallout New Vegas.

If we're talking about them as a Dev-Studio-Publisher, what is something that connects their games together. An issue affecting one game, or one series, and something that has happened to other games in the past doesn't strike me as being "Oh, yep... that's Ubisoft." I'm just thinking about what would really sell some sort of punchline, if it were something consistent. I don't mean to dwell on it too much, but we had a kind of conversation going over that point so :\
