Become a $60 Beta Assassin!, November 12, 2014
By Christian Stella "author"This review is from: Assassin's Creed Unity PlayStation 4 (Video Game)
AC Unity is true next-gen. In fact, it is SO next-gen that it isn't even finished yet! I like to be on the cutting edge and I appreciate that Ubisoft is making games that it is still making, even weeks after you've beaten them.
I also love the forced integration with an app as well as a website. How that works is that you sign in with your uplay account to experience so many error messages that last gen could never display on screen at one time.
The game itself (no spoilers) centers around Arno, an Assasin in search of locked chests that require a cell phone game with micro transactions to open. You level him up by "hacking" into your bank account to drain real money at 60 FPS. The rest of the game runs at a solid 12 FPS which is TWICE as cinematic as a movie... No small feat! Once you've completed "playing" a website on your computer, Arno is finally ready to fall through the ground and enter a white abyss... The core challenge of the game, these moments where you simply fall into the sky that accurately existed under 1700's Paris, are some of the most nail-biting moments in any game ever made... Will the game crash? Will you have to hard reset your console? Results are random, so it will always be a surprise!
Many people just won't "get" this evolution of Assassin's Creed and should spend their time opening up a history book instead. It is there they could read up on Paris' floating people and long battle with pop-in. Even today, many Parisians only exist after you've already walked past them. It is these small details that Ubisoft has nailed and they deserve applause with tons of random audio pops just as you'd hear in the game's cinematics.
After playing this gem, I've decided to fly to Montreal tomorrow to begin playing 2018's Assassin's Creed 9. Unity's only shortcoming was that it was a little TOO finished, so I am hoping the Ubisoft guys will let me plug my controller into a broken vending machine in their studio that simply eats dollars that I put into it without delivering.
. Bin mal gespannt was ich so an Kuriositäten entdecke. Hoffe ja weiterhin trotz der technischen Mängel auf ein inhaltlich unterhaltsames und abwechslungsreiches Spiel. Framerateeinbrüche oder Pop-Ins stören mich eigentlich nicht. AC U wäre dann tatsächlich das erste Spiel, bei welchem mir diese Punkte den Spaß am Spiel nehmen könnten. Aber bleibe zuversichtlich ;-).
Deswegen das anscheinend, da mehrere Leute im Netz meinten des es ab da schlagartig auffällt.
