Poll: Season Pass Holders - Free Game OR Unity UNLOCKED? | Forums

[similarly]

Season Pass Holders, would you rather have one of the five games offered by Ubisoft, or would you rather that Ubisoft COMPLETELY unlock Unity for Season Pass holders?

By completely unlock, here's what I mean:
1. All chests AND missions currently locked behind the clunky and rather bland COMPANION APP will be unlocked.
2. All golden chests locked by the poorly synchronizing Initiates website will be unlocked.
3. All legendary gear locked behind the non-existent CLUB COMPETITIONS will be unlocked, free and upgraded.
4. All future DLC.

As well, for the icing on the cake, a bonus of Skill Points, Creed Points and hack points to help us on our way.

Currently, Ubisoft is offering these games:
Watch Dogs
AC IV
Far Cry 4
Rayman Legends
Just Dance 2015
The Crew

Here's my problem (and I know I'm not alone): I ALREADY HAVE watch dogs, ACIV and FC4. I'm not terribly interested, to be honest, in Rayman Legends or Just Dance 2015, and while The Crew might be my choice of the three, it's probably not a game I would have bought. I'm not really into racing games and I'm worried about the microtransaction nonsense.

So given a choice, I'd rather just have them completely unlock Unity for me so I can have fun playing the game I bought.

Now, I know this will 99% probably never happen. However, if YOU had a choice, what would you want?

I would want the crew. AC is so broken and unplayable im mad just looking at the game knowing i was stupid enough to purchase it. For me the free game is the only reason i would think of even purchasing another ubisoft title. Never again will i play or buy another AC game. Getting treated like this is unacceptable and more and more companys are doing so. as in releasing a game clearly not ready and then keeping us in the dark about progress on the patches or an ETA for the "Free game" we are getting sense we OBVIOUSLY did not get the game we payed for. Honestly i would much rather get a refund than any of these options but of course i will never get that no matter how hard i try.

I suppose the choice would be nice, but the unlocking of Unity doesn't necesarily mean the game works. At this point, I find it hard to even play the game, It's so littered with bugs, but that isn't the worst part. Bugs are unintentional, they're not SUPPOSED to be there. The fact that they allowed the locking of the game, the app, the helix points, initiates, club competitions, is just mind boggling. Someone actually thought it was a good idea, or at least a good way to squeeze extra money out of gamers. Every time one of those features shows itself in the game, it's really kind of gross feeling. So no, for me, I don't really want "more unity." Ideally I'd get a refund, but as it is, I'd just rather play something else.

I don't think they owe anyone a thing. If you can't get it to work on your PC it's your fault.

Except for the few real rare game stopping bugs.

that's just my opinion though.

Its certainly your opinion, and mine would be you're completely wrong. Not only that, but even Ubisoft would disagree with you, hence making the DLC free, and offering a free game, some brand new, due to the issues. So clearly, Ubi believes they owe us something. Not every bug has to be game breaking to make it an unpleasant, painful experience to play. To blame the user, in this case...I have assume you're just trolling, because the alternative, well, it's hard to imagine someone actually believing what your saying.

This poll is simply STUPID.
If you already own all those games it's your problem.
Don't be selfish.
AC Unity stuff is something you can already unlock if you want to, it's not even important neither game changing what you get from these chests etc.
A recent free game is entirely another thing and a way better option.

ugh close this thread and put it in a box and store it in the attic...

even if i had all the games they are offering, why the h*ll would i want ubisoft to complete gameplay for me? i'd rather they fixed the issues you mention which will result in more gameplay with something to look forward to instead of just getting all the gear for nothing.

In this particular area i think ubisoft has really managed to balance a fairly fast paced stealth/action game with rpg influences even though gear and character skills could be abit more comprehensive as an rpg. i think it gives both variation and a sense of achievability to progress without it being handed to you too easily.

You mean bugs like random 5s+ freezes... or perhaps when they delete my save and synch that to my PC? Yeah, that's my fault. Since I have the hardware to run it fine, I'm going to go ahead and set the blame at Ubi's feet on this one.

I certainly won't argue with you about the poll being STUPID, but how is it selfish? That's ridiculous. I'm just asking people what they think.

As for "you can already unlock [it] if you want to": Not really. There ARE no club competitions, so how can I unlock all that legendary gear?

Yeah, I'd agree that FIXING it would be better, but how likely do you think that is? I don't see any signs they have any plans to do that, do you? And if they aren't going to fix it, at least I'd like them to stop locking content by things that either don't work or don't exist.

Is free game + fixed initiates/companion too much to ask?
