Suggestion for those Complaining about lack of Dev. | Forums

....Loot Crate system gets embedded in the game complete with its interactive User Interface that comes with sound and animation.

So there you go.

When your game's "authenticity" stems from how much it emulates a slot machine.

Dude, if a bug/glitch got mentioned about their precious gambling crates, they'd halt an entire production and redirect all manpower to rectify the issue immediately. Oh, and their QA would inspect it with an electron microscope before sending a certificate of validation to their head honcho along with a complementary bl*wjob and beer. Actually, it's Ubi, a shakeweight and kale smoothie.

Sorry for being a bit off topic, but when I look at the infestation of drug crap in Far Cry 5, and their turning Assassin's Creed into an RPG with dialog choices and varied outcomes that shouldn't even be possible in a game that uses DNA tracing to track people's memories, this is their only combat series that isn't completely going into self destruct mode.

Despite it's quirks, GRW is still a pretty decent game, which is why so many still play it.

off topic but up late night watching AC stuff, Isn't the DNA thing not an issue because it happens before AC origins and before all the DNA stuff. I agree, think it's definitely not your typical AC and doesn't fall the same storyline/style, but I think they got around that RPG thing by just not having DNA memory tracing. But I could be wrong.

Ubi has already stated that the woman from modern day, in ACO, returns in Odyssey, linking the 2 games. So they obviously still use an Animus, to access those memories. In the past games, you could alter the memories somewhat, by not reaching 100% synchronization, but Odyssey completely blows that out of the window.

But I will say, that even though it goes against the mythos of the series, it offers much more replayability, because, not only can you lay a either character, your choices can severely alter the story later on, so each play through can be different

Why do you still sneak into every Criticism Thread to tell every Critic he is wrong? Lawl?
I mean, what's so hard in taking off your Ubivision Goggles? Try it, you'd be surprised about the real world...

Your "you all twist what I say" Scheme got boring many Months ago, in Fact YOU are the one twisting, cause I didn't say anything against your or Ubisoft, I just stated that PvE is dead. Period. I didn't rate that Fact, nor did I say a single bad Word about that Fact.

I can't believe I still have to do that futile Discussion with you after more than one fckng Year.

I'm entitled to add my view and discuss the criticism; I know how you dislike anyone not joining in the collective indignation, so put me on ignore if you don't like what I say or my views.

I pointed out the simple facts about player numbers and you translated that as denying the PvE was fading, I didn't, and being unrealistic, they aren't my numbers.

It took them over a year to implement nvg flipping and ai customization. Again I didnt say they never improved anything, it is simply my opinion that the changes to this game have been quite minor in comparison to the plethora of issues. The fact that I continually have to restart the game multiple times per day, 2 years after launch-and I know I'm not alone- is tough starting to get a little frustrating, and I have gone through all the fixes. It's not the xbox, its the game. Most of those fixes, while I appreciate, I see as either simple fixes or way overdue, especially the ****ing NVG's which should have been part of it at launch. I mean If this is the timeline that we should expect for our fixes to be implemented. Again, my opinion that the development of this game has been lack luster. And I for one am done re-hashing old recommendations over and over again.

You said making suggestions was of little to no avail, and that was the specific point I was addressing. Yeah those changes could have come earlier, but they came because of the player feedback.

The technical issues you are suffering are a different issue and you have my sympathy. Why do you have to restart, though? I have an xbox version and I never have to restart. What happens? Does the game freeze?

I find 9 times out of ten those kind of problems are usually overheating issues, or just excessive wear and tear. Consoles cannot withstand the same rigors a well built and ventilated PC can, more so Xbox than PS.

I mean that fits my description of "little to no avail" aka minor changes that took too long, but at that point we are getting subjective so I'm not going to argue that. My issues come from multiplayer co-op and ghost war, and the Ubi team is well aware of the issues. It doesn't handle parties, mics, or any sort of co-op very well. People not showing up on maps, coms not working, de-sync, crashing, freezing, bugs all over. I think it only happens when you play with someone else though. On solo it seems fine but I mostly play with people so if you play solo mostly that would explain why you don't have issues. Everyone i've encountered on multiplayer experience the same issues. It could possibly be heat issuees which I'll look into but I find its more an issue with multiplayer. Like if you plug in a mic mid match, most of the time i have between 3-10 minutes until a crash, every time it happens within the match. Also if you have a mic plugged in a start your console, it won't pick it up. Also continuous NAT issues I have never encountered with any other game. Also if it was just from wear and tear, why do I not experience these same issues with any other game? the variable here is not the xbox but gr, if the issues persisted across titles maybe, but it doesnt.

The perk of not being a rail-cart game.

It does still makes sense too as a memory-tracing game to me. We still have the unchangeable bold line of the story, which is the memory. And as for the rest of the action and conversation are the little details of the so called history that's erased by time and so in this game it turns into freedom, which also beneficiary to the sake of the gameplay. Surely there will be a canon to those details. This is pretty much every game. Whatever we do in the game doesn't mean a representation of the actual lore.

Not true, they have now made significant parts of the story changeable by the player, with drastically different outcomes. Thus there is no "bold line of the story" anymore. They destroyed any sense of continuity or history by allowing the player to change significant events in history. And no, history cannot be "erased by time". It's only the memories of descendants that fade, not those captured by the animus, which are memories/history of ancestors.

It seems Ubi have twisted the core theme of the game so much they now have even devoted fans of the series making up excuses for the changes that make no sense, all because they'd rather have new gameplay features than a story that makes sense. The odd thing is, most seem to have forgotten there's plenty ways they've continually changed the series without resorting to sabotaging the core principles of the animus and the tracing of ancestral memories by reliving events in history. Now they're turning it into their own version of Remember Me, without really admitting it.

yeah I don't see it as much of an issue, I mean can you remember what food you ate for dinner last Sunday? The point being even human current retention of memories is shakey and fluid at best. The fact people can get tricked into remembering things that never happened. Idk I just don't see the tweaks as really franchise breaking.
