Assassin's Creed Unity - after PATCHED - TOTAL ICE!

[randy hutajulu]

First of all, to be honest this is not the best gaming experience i've ever had but after it's patched, it works a lot better.

I know that everyone blame ubisoft like hell. But, let me share my new experience from the new patch from each problem perspective.

1. Bugs : yea.. It still have some bugs on it but still playable. It's an assassin's creed typical bugs. Maybe it will be resolved by the next patch.

2. Framerates : ok, lets get real, this is an open world game with so many objects on the screen. Some people compares it with BF4. From my opinion it's not that simple. U can't campare both of them at all. I'm playing this game with a single GTX 780 at 1920x1200 and i still have average framerates around 45-50 on highest setting with 2xMSAA. My lowest framerate is around 36-38.

And this the "big problem" (that was what people said) is the locked framerate. My highest framerate is 60 (which is locked and mostly happen while on rooftop) but why i need more than that? I'm using a 60 Hz IPS panel monitor anyway, and i'm so sure that most people here is also using 60 Hz monitor.

3. AMD GPUs problem : hhhmmm.. I don't know. Both of my gaming rig are using nvidia GTX anyway.

4. My only complaint is the costume. Please Ubisoft! U finally make THE BEST LOOKING ASSASSIN ever. Why u destroy it with a lot uglier alternate costumes (which is give u a lot benefit and ability)?!! Why don't u just stay with the original costume and give it some add ons just like u always did.

The conclusion is. This is a good game. Good gameplay. Good looking graphs. Nice crowd etc.

But my advice is, if u want the best gaming experience with this game, just work harder and buy a better GPU for it and stop blaming Ubisoft coz it doesn't run nicely on low end GPUs.

Thx for reading. Have a nice day everyone

Ubi**** doesn't deserve my money or anyone else's for that matter.  I am disappointed that anyone would support this company at this point.

Yea.. This is just my opinion from my own experience buddy. Bit its a good game. U should give it a try

[TheKDub]

IMO, the game is shit, and ubisoft is shit and needs to gtfo.

People are using GTX 980s to play the damn game and are getting shitty framerates, they should be able to pull 60+ FPS max settings 1080p easily, just face it, ubisofts PC ports are absolute shit when it comes to optimization.

Because average anything below 60 is bad.

Ok i have to disagree, buy a better gpu? no. If a game is broken you don't fix it buy spending more money on hardware.

Sure if your sitting with a gtx x50 and complaining it runs like shit (30 avarage fps on high) your an idiot.

Also visual it looks worse then AC 3. But that's just, my opinion. And yes I played all AC till date minus Rouge.

Well, it might be a big open world with hundreds of things around but they have already recognized that it is badly coded! Thousands of draw calls and instructions over the limit were bottlenecking performance and the game doesn't even look that good, it's filled with popping and graphical glitches.

Oh come on lets get real. Have u ever play crysis 3 and metro last light? U will never reach 60 with everything's maxed up on 1920x1200 right?

Yea buddy. I know that. Thats why i said thay this is not my best gaming experience. But its still playable anyway

I have played Crysis 3, and honestly with a single 980 it could easily pull 60+ FPS on high at 1080p.

[ImBleu]

Got this game free with my motherboard, I'll be giving it a try.

Those looked way better than ACU....

[randy hutajulu]

Yea. I also can get around 47-50 FPS on 1920x1200 with my 780. No wonder it hits 60 with 980. We both know that crytek has one of the best game engine ever.

But i think 45-50 FPS is quite playable for third person open world game.

[randy hutajulu]

Yea.. I agree. Especially metro. But since im using a wide gamut monitor, somehow this ACU looks really good on my eyes. The color reprodiction is really nice.

I like it. Just my opinion

On the list it shows the 780 at about 80 FPS for crysis 3 at 1920x1080 (1080p), high settings, with FXAA

Wide gamut does not take more processing power to run so whatever Ubisoft is doing with ACU, it's just terrible and I hope they get sued/get no money from ACU at all.  This is beyond terrible.  Even BF4 launch was better than this nonsense.

We're talking about very high stting + 8xMSAA here buddy

You may be, but I for one am not.

Oh sorry buddy. That's a bit missunderstanding

It's only natural that people will compare it with other games.

If other games in the market look as good and run much smoother it's only natural that gamers will compare against that...  Since watchdogs had the same stuttering issues people got annoyed that Ubisoft couldn't get their game running smoothly twice in a row.

 

Again the performance should justify the visual quality. e.g. Valve games like CS:GO do not look great by modern standards. People accept it because it runs at very high framerates on modern hardware. On the other hand Crysis 3 runs at much lower framerates, again people don't complain because it has the graphics quality and jaw-dropping visuals to jusfity that performance. Both are examples of good optimization, albeit on opposite ends of the spectrum.

 

btw crysis 3 runs smoothly on my R9 290 maxed out with even 4 x MSAA at 1080p. I don't know what the framerate is but there is no microstutter, it feels responsive. Gamers will always compare against other games in the market, that's the competition and those are the industry benchmarks which have been set by other devs. Ubisoft has to deal with that, they do not exist in isolation

[WolfDeville]

Still runs like crap on my dual 980's with TXAA, if I use FXAA it runs at 60+

Maybe ACU is not the best looking game on the market but somehow i like their ways of making great picture.

45 FPS is still acceptable. I ran crysis 3 on very high setting and 8xMSAA at 1920x1200 with average 46 FPS. It's playable and enjoyable since i have supernice picture in my screen.

Woooww... What resolution do u play buddy?

It's a good looking game when maxed out, no doubt.

But not quite good enough to justify the performance...

 

The games are fairly fun to play and generally have interesting enough stories, and that's the reason the Assassin's creed franchise has a big fanbase. Where Ubisoft seems to be struggling is on a technical level. Other AAA devs seem to do a better job when it comes to the technical and QA aspects of game development.
