Assasin Creed Unity System Requitments Leaked

Poor Console Port Incoming PC Users Take over and DON'T BUY Please>? 

[daemonowner]

It's Ubisoft. I very much doubt they will make a well-optimized good-looking PC version, because when they don't they still sell boatloads of copies on PC and consoles. The number of 12 year olds far outnumbers us.

[Octagoncow]

Dig Dig Dig Dig!!!!

I just don't see why an i5 2500k is the minimum. I would have thought the minimum would be a 5960x with 4 980s in SLI to come close to the overwhelming power of the consoles. Thank you Ubisoft for lowering your game so us PC peasants can run it!

[bry.yyyy]

Ubisoft is like A rockstar right now 

 

Making People considering to buy Console than A Gaming PC

Doubt this, either way I have no need to worry. Getting a gtx 970 soon

[Guest]

lmao, 680GTX minimum graphics.

 

so my SLI 670's which ran AC4 absolutely fine at 60fps at 1600p won't be able to even launch this?  Fucking joke.  Not like it's a lost sale for then anyway as I was going to avoid Ubisoft products until they change their tune.

 

My computer doesn't meet the minimum spec for a 30fps crock of horseshit, oh well.  I'm off to play a title from a publisher/developer that can optimise their games and have them run at 60fps or higher and aren't a total rip off.

Holy Crap! I barely got it in minimum

For reference, here are the Ryse: Son of Rome specs.

 

This is one of the most graphically intensive and beautiful games on PC.  Yes, it is a console port in terms of gameplay and features, but in terms of graphics it has all of the shiny bells and whistles available to use.

 

 

If only devs and publishers would spend that time and effort on optimising their games to work rather than making up shitty excuses, flat out lying and speaking to us like we are idiots.  But we are fuckin idiots because this will still sell a shit tonne.

[EChondo]

Cool, an unoptimized POS game. I bet it'll sell like hotcakes. Too bad I'm a pie man.

 

[kichilron]

Isn't it that we have been wanting devlopers / publishers to push the minimum requirements for some time now? If they keep trying to push out games that will run on 4+ year old builds it's never going to improve. Apart from the fact that Ubisoft has dug their own grave by announcing it will 30 FPS only (which is a contradiction to those requirements one may assume) - I don't actually mind the fact that they're pushing for high requirements.

 

In the long run we PC gamers can only benefit from that and it is what we wanted for a long time now and what LinusTech has been preaching for a time as well.

[virtualTune]

well that would explain the res and fps caps ^^. If those are in fact the specs then maybe they should have released in a year or so with no caps.

It’s also where I believe that some PC gamers really need to change their thinking.

The problem is that, due primarily to the length of the previous console generation, many new PC gamers are now operating under the assumption that they should be able to “max out” all settings in every game and still achieve good performance—otherwise a lack of optimization is to blame. This is, of course, a counterproductive stance, as it actively discourages the inclusion of high-end features.

The Ubisoft hatred/bashing has for a long time, gone beyond any rationality. Anyone talking about Ubisoft digging, have lost their minds and are now hurting PC's. Why would any dev care about going the extra mile for a much nicer pc experience, if they make very little money on the pc market, and all pc gamers whine like small children, and spout hatred? If you want to critique Ubi, at least be rational about it.

[Rubenis]

Totall bullshit. Why would they sell game, that does not run on costumers PCs?? They would not, because then it would not get profit from it.

 

I bet you this is just rubbish - not a single second of belief was given.

Except neither of those is true.

 

The game is shitty and jerky with 30fps @ 900p  on consoles, and it's a shitty and jerky 30fps @ whatever res on PC- providing they haven't only allowed 16:9 resolutions.

Nobody complained about those Batman games or Shadow of Mordor(except for the texture pack).

(at least no one sensible)

 

Ubisoft suggesting i7 for minimum requirement is just obvious proof that they didn't make the game work on 2-4 core cpu.

It's similar to The Evil Within, where even the new GTX 980 was shown by EuroGamer to have issues getting a stable 60fps at 1080p. Yet the game uses an old engine that was able to run RAGE and Wolfenstein at 60fps on consoles and PCs.

 

It really is like a lot of "AAA" developers have forgotten how to optimize and develop well.

 

The way I see it, if a game runs worse than Crysis 3 at 1080p, and looks worse, it's a bad port.

This so much!

 

Hell my Mac with FirePros ran Ryse at high settings at 3440x1440 without issue, yet The Evil Within using the idTech 5 engine, which was designed for 60FPS only ran like this at 3440x1440

AGREE

[LePawel]

It is another move to push people towards buying closed, DRM and pay-walled products that consoles are. 1 company taking whole industry down a drain, way to go.

Don't buy the game. I officially rename it to Assassin's Creed: Ghosts.

[ChrisxIxCross]

This smells like the same bullshit requirements that CoD Ghosts had lol.

I also see it as them going

 

LOOK you really DO NEED a PC that costs at least 1000-2000 just to be able to play our "amazing" game.

 

Aren't consoles such a bargain? At $399 you get the same graphics and performance as a 1 grand PC. We're so awesome.

 

It's really all BS from them. I'm not buying it or another Ubi game until they sort themselves out. Plenty of other fun games about.

What about Goat Simulator?

[GriggsCK]

My friend sent me this. I would assume it is good enough for 30fps at high setting at 1080p, certainly not gtx 680 level.

No one would say a thing if it run smoothly on low end machine, are you high? This is ubisoft we are talking about, always unoptimized shit, watch dog is a prime example, look worse yet run worse than other games. Assasin creed looks much better but certainly does not reach i7 and gtx 680 minimum level. Pull yourself together. 

Edit: People will react differently for really beautiful and demanding games, or unoptimized piece of shits. Not a lot of people complain about Crysis 3, or Metro last light being unoptimized,  they are really beautiful games, completely opposite of some games. 

[dmegatool]

Got the game for free... Didn't even think I wouldn't meet the minimum requierement (got a 760). I'll wait to see the game running before complaining but my hopes aren't high.
