Assassin's Creed Unity Locked to 900p/30fps on Both PS4 and XBO to "avoid all the [performance] deba - Polidicks

It's pathetic that next-gen consoles are doing the whole optimized at 30fps lockout still.

[QUOTE=meppers;46165685]Ubisoft is worse than EA. this is no longer an opinion. You can not refute this.[/QUOTE] Ubisoft has been worse than EA for a while. People just hold grudges. [b]But[/b] I will say that Ubisoft is the most willing to take risks with new IPs and innovate with good ideas (but execute them poorly). They can make good games, but mess up with everything else. [editline].[/editline] It's a shame too because Unity was actually looking interesting.

And I thought I'd still buy FarCry 4 after all. And that's not even affecting me. I haven't bought Watch_Dogs, I don't have consoles etc. but this level of being shit? No, suck dicks Ubisoft, I ain't buying shit from you. There must be a limit to how much you can screw customers over by lying and outright insulting our intelligence. For some time we thought EA was the bottom, and now Ubisoft is crashing right through it.

[QUOTE=Super Muffin;46165818]That's what everyone expected before Watch Dogs came out. Ubi is not good at optimization.[/QUOTE] Oh, Unity's gonna be fucking terrible on PC release too. But on PC you can tweak files directly.

Thank Xbone, you are officially the retarded kid in the race that everyone has to slow down for.

Console faggots.

They're buttmad because SoM made a better assassins creed. With a better story. WHERE IS CHARLES LEE?

[QUOTE=Jordax;46165785]And that is the only console shown to be capable to run games at frames higher than 30fps. The WiiU.[/QUOTE] People are treating this like a joke but if I was going to pick up a 'next gen' console I'd pick up a WiiU. It offers the interesting (albeit tired, but you can't accuse Nintendo of this without looking at the lineup for xbone and ps4) games with the best performance, graphical fidelity isn't great but (for the most part with Nintendo games) the aesthetics trump a realistic look anyway.

Imagine how much more power they could've gotten out of the systems if the game didn't have female characters.

[QUOTE=Durrsly;46165712]Good job Ubisoft, now it's just Console vs PC instead of XBO vs PS4 vs PC.[/QUOTE] Can't wait until they announce 800p/25FPS lock for PC.

I wish there was no performance debates in the first place. The PS4 is more powerful than the Xbox One. So what? The PS1 outsold the N64 even though it was a weaker computer. The PS2 outsold both Gamecube and Xbox (despite the Xbox being the most comparable to a gaming PC) even though it was a weaker computer. The Wii outsold the PS3 (the most powerful 7th gen console) and the Xbox 360. Even the Xbox 360 outsold the PS3. Computational performance has little bearing on sales figures. People just want a great gaming experience and that's how the computation underdogs of the last three generations succeeded.

They were aiming this game at the new consoles, and now they're basically giving them the middle finger? What dumbasses. At least I'm happy we're getting none of this shit on PC. For now. "Let's make a game for PS4 and Xbox One, and then make no use of their hardware capabilities!"

Not to mention the fact that they are already spewing DLC when the game is in alpha state. Literally cut content.

To be honest, it's pretty 'meh' all around. I would'nt have paid a cent over $200. The touch pad is nice, my mother finds it easier to use for Netflix than my 360's controller. I also find the Lego City Undercover game to be pretty good. After that, the rest is fairly mediocre. I've tried games like ZombiU and Super Mario 3d World, but both just didn't meet my expectations. On several games, it struggles to stay at 30fps. To be honest, I would've gotten a lot more enjoyment if i just bought an N64.

Ninja Gaiden 3, Resident Evil, Ghosts, and Black Ops 2 are really the only "good" ports that the Wii U has. As for ZombiU.. It's pretty obvious it was a rushed game.

I'm really saddened by the fact that Far Cry is in ubisofts hands. I mean they've been keeping their filthy palms of it mostly but you never know what will happen when FC4 comes.

[QUOTE=kenji;46166521]They're buttmad because SoM made a better assassins creed. With a better story. WHERE IS CHARLES LEE?[/QUOTE] It's a more appropriate theme and setting, too. Don't have to appease goblin beggars by throwing castars in the streets, don't gotta build up no mansion, and for all the First Civilisation magitek in AC, Ezio was never able to mind control guards and cause them to do his bidding. Plus Ezio never had an elf ghost augmenting his abilities. Ubisoft should just work on making another cool pirate game with sufficiently piratey combat, making an effort to succeed where Deep Silver failed with Risen 2 and Risen 2 Again But Repainted.

[QUOTE=Qwerty Bastard;46166339]Thank Xbone, you are officially the retarded kid in the race that everyone has to slow down for.[/QUOTE] Just because they both run on 30fps doesn't mean the graphics on the PS4 aren't necessarily any better. If they really are CPU bound (not really buying that they would be bottlenecked to 30fps, but they might be limited so somewhere between 30-60fps meaning tearing would occur) it very much makes sense that both consoles run at the same framerate, as their CPUs are basically identical. The CPU in both the Xbone and the PS4 are decidedly low-end (which makes sense since most games are bottlenecked in the graphics department).

Doesn't the Xbox and the PS4 have the same specs anyway?

They did a terrible pc port on the game before this one too.. Last assassins creed game i played was the 2nd game, after that it's all down hill.

[QUOTE=Killergam;46167834]They did a terrible pc port on the game before this one too.. Last assassins creed game i played was the 2nd game, after that it's all down hill.[/QUOTE] Blackflag was tons of fun when you werent doing assassin missions (which is ironic).

I wish they'd just re-make the original Assassin's Creed to be as polished and open as all the ones after it. It was basically a tech demo made to test the waters with the concept, but IMO, it was the best theme and time period I also wish Devs would stop letting other consoles dictate what another console can or won't do. Destiny did this, too. "We want the experience to be the same for everyone across all consoles" Then what was the point of buying or using new consoles if we're just going to get the same old shit shoveled at us? Use the fucking horsepower and let the chips lie as they fall. If Xbox can't keep up then it can't keep up, Oh well. If PS4 can't do something the Xbox can, then it can't do it. Big deal. Stop limiting everything to what the old out dated stuff can do. Start new, use the available power to make it the best it can be, then port to the old stuff. We're almost a year in now, it's time to stop thinking with the mindset of "Make this in such a way that it'll run on hardware that's 10 years old as well as the new stuff, and make sure that they're as close as possible to one another" What do you think is going to happen to the final product if it was made to also work on hardware worse than my $19 smart phone?

Lets just be honest here and say it's the XBONE.

This isn't the first time a multiplatform game had pointless "parity" nonsense. Destiny comes to mind. Black Flag was as well but had a patch a few days after launch to raise the PS4 version from 900p to 1080p.
