Ubisoft Stock Down 9.33%

It not only seems that Ubisoft's decisions keep digging down, but so are their stocks.

Ubisoft’s stock is currently down by 9.12 per cent to $3.29 thanks to Assassin’s Creed Unity’s buggy launch, in-fact the game is so glitchy that you can already find compilation videos on YouTube. It’s not just PC users having problems either, review outlets noted heavy performance issues on both the PS4 and Xbox One.

 

 

Of course it is not the end of the company, as we all know 9.12 is not enough to take a company down but hopefully to stop it from digging in sensitive areas.

 

 

Stock does tend to decline and rise back up fairly regularly so it is possible that despite the title’s poor launch, stock could break even once again tomorrow. However, this ordeal does raise the question, would Ubisoft have been better off delaying Assassin’s Creed Unity? Does the series really have to be a yearly release?

The article does bring a reasonable question, should Ubisoft have delayed the release of AC unity?  But who cares, it is already too late and the game although "okay" looking is not satisfying anyone with frequent bugs and stupidly low FPS on midrange systems.

Hopefully with the POS Unity is, no one will buy FarCry 4 and whatever else they're releasing.

 

 

BUT THAT WON'T HAPPEN

Good, I hope this brings them to their senses. AC:Unity as a game isn't too bad, it just that they added microtransactions AND poor preformance to the mix as well....

Only 9.33%? Not amused. 

 

You know what they're going to do now don't you? They're going to put 5 layers of DRM on their games and claim piracy had something to do with it.

Took the words right out of my mouth.

Why? Ubisoft employs an insane amount of talented artists and programmers, not to mention their massive catalogue of high quality titles. Hang the leaders, not the entire country.

 

You forgot to mention their great excavator crew.

I'm starting to thing my home of the US is cursed with digging.

Think about it.

Government digs up debt

BP digs up oil in the gulf

Now Ubisoft digs their way to the worst gaming company
