[QUOTE=ketchup;44938422]But there IS a problem. There were a number of people on here, reddit, and the uplay forums all confirming that they couldn't connect and they were all on 8.1. darkrei9n is now the second person to confirm that switching from 8 to 7 fixes it.[/QUOTE] Only thing related to networking I did was disable Windows firewall and open the ports, and that was when I was troubleshooting connecting to this specific person.

[QUOTE=Nacho Cheese;44938430]Only thing related to networking I did was disable Windows firewall and open the ports, and that was when I was troubleshooting connecting to this specific person.[/QUOTE] I've completely disabled Windows Firewall, opened ports 8000 - 9500 (Ubisoft calls for 9000-9005), enabled the DMZ for my LAN, turned off Windows Defender and it hasn't done anything. I just don't know what else it could be at this point.

story: [sp]I knew that either Nichole or Clara would be the martyr, it was too obvious. There were so many obvious hints that Clara was involved with Aiden's past that I saw it coming. I also figured that since Nichole was literally gone for the entire game, the writers were trying to make the player not feel bad whenever they eventually killed her off. I was glad to see they didn't do that, but at the same time they wasted such an opportunity to make the story about family by taking out any importance of Jackson and Nichole. They literally disappear until they are convenient with all of this 'Try to do one thing, do three other things first' bullshit. And what ending? There was nothing there. What a waste. [/sp]

[QUOTE=Nacho Cheese;44938401][sp]I didn't say you did, I said she was killed off. I know what happened. As a side note, I still think it's fucking stupid when games use things like optional audio logs to explain extra parts of the story, which are in some cases pretty vital to understanding everything that happened. I'm sure people who don't listen to any of them aren't going to have a clear idea of why Clara was killed.[/sp][/QUOTE] Are you actually complaining that you have to listen to audio logs that are left in front of you progressing the story normally, to get a full understanding of the story? Like you literally do not even have to go to a side mission to understand why that whole sequence happens, just listen to [sp] Lucky Quinn's audio logs that you find in the room near where he dies[/sp] and you understand why it happens. I dumbed up so hard that I found them all and was able to listen to them all before I even encountered [sp] Lucky [/sp] himself. That's like saying that if a character doesn't tell Aiden directly or you don't get a cutscene then a sequence of the story wasn't explained well enough. I actually really liked how they handled that whole sequence. Maurice's storyline however, I wasn't satisfied with [sp] maybe because I chose to walk away, but it all felt a bit silly. I dunno, with the whole speech about "revenge felt great" Aiden gives after Quinn, I feel like I made the wrong choice.[/sp]

Also, you'd be even less satisfied if you shot him. All that happens is you shoot him and fade to black then credits. Not even kidding, not a peep from Aiden.[/sp]

I'm on 8.1 and the online shit works for me.

The people that have switched have literally changed the variables by using a different system, or one that was reformatted. You're hearing hooves and looking for zebras.

also the fact that you're trying to diagnose with a third party with unknown reliability involved

Apparently the game also has a memory leak. Would explain why I get issues that seem like stuttering after playing for a few hours with the disable page file check command.

[QUOTE=John Fisher;44938522]Apparently the game also has a memory leak. Would explain why I get issues that seem like stuttering after playing for a few hours with the disable page file check command.[/QUOTE] So most of the stutter is due to memory leak?

Anyone have tips on getting invaded? I want people to invade me but so far nada.

[QUOTE=darkrei9n;44938582]Anyone have tips on getting invaded? I want people to invade me but so far nada.[/QUOTE] I want to know how to invade others.

[QUOTE=darkrei9n;44938582]Anyone have tips on getting invaded? I want people to invade me but so far nada.[/QUOTE] Honestly, I'm just boiling it down to general online issues ATM. I haven't gotten any either (I'm running 8.1 for the record). Just ctOS mobile requests.

[QUOTE=sa2fan;44938584]I want to know how to invade others.[/QUOTE] online contracts app>tailing or hacking

Not even kidding, not a peep from Aiden.[/sp][/QUOTE] That's kinda lame. That was the weakest portion of the story for me, Maurice's arc. It's sidelined after the first mission and then the resolution was just... meh? Like it's honestly just left me wondering why [sp]Aiden would even keep him alive to stew if he just shoots him at the end[/sp]. I dunno. The rest of the story was kick ass though.

[QUOTE=sa2fan;44938574]So most of the stutter is due to memory leak?[/QUOTE] I don't know if it is, I just read about it. From Reddit: [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/zhRYAA6.png[/IMG]

I just want to fix it. I don't really care whatever the outcome may be, I just want to invade some people. :(

Dumb that you can't play with friends in 1v1 hacking, they could have just made it so it was no EXP. I went into a game and hacked some guy, then he started blowing up every car :v:

I've done that to 3 people in a row now. They never see you.

However I've never lost when i was cornering, but I like being chased. another mission was on the docks, and this guy kept running around the crates, I was in a car so I kept driving around them as well. Then the circle got smaller and I had to go find new crates, just so happen that he could lift this cargo crate :(

I invaded one person. Game decided to drop me in an alley with them as the only people there. He immediately pulled out his phone and shot me. Thanks game.

Is there a toggle walk button? I don't want to jog in the streets during invasions.

[QUOTE=Viper123_SWE;44938682]Is there a toggle walk button? I don't want to jog in the streets during invasions.[/QUOTE] Yes. Check controls, it's called Stroll. [editline]29th May 2014[/editline] I don't know it off-hand, as I use a controller, but I saw it once.

[QUOTE=codemaster85;44938670]I invaded one person. Game decided to drop me in an alley with them as the only people there. He immediately pulled out his phone and shot me. Thanks game.[/QUOTE] He shot you with his phone. Pretty good phone there, hidden gun too

Is it possible to invade specific players, even friends? Or is it just random. Also what's some fun stuff to do on the free roam? (also my uplay id is RaTcHeT302)

[QUOTE=Viper123_SWE;44938682]Is there a toggle walk button? I don't want to jog in the streets during invasions.[/QUOTE] It's in the options, controls. Alt is the default button for toggling walk.

Wow. The Alone digital trip becomes such bullshit towards the end.

[QUOTE=Sharp_Shooter;44936866]Pretty happy with the results.

Thanks ENB.

[QUOTE=T-Sonar.0;44938704]Wow. The Alone digital trip becomes such bullshit towards the end.[/QUOTE] Yeah, at the last three generators, I had to pretty much start using the EMP pistol and grenades a lot more to the point of making a suicide charge. Stealth pretty much loses all usefulness when eight robots spawn around you in a perfect circle. I really like the outfit from completion though.

[QUOTE=Viper123_SWE;44938682]Is there a toggle walk button? I don't want to jog in the streets during invasions.[/QUOTE] Alt by default on PC! EDIT: In one of the options menus there's a toggle option. I recommend this. You can just stroll around Chicago, then sprint if there's a criminal or whatnot.
