Assassin's Creed Unity Thread - Part 1

I was hoping they would take some time off, re-release the last gen games in a master bundle, the put out a new game and a Unity sequel. Oh well :/ I just hope this one isn't so rushed, both story and gameplay wise.
 
I'm all for a Victorian Era game. I wanted Victorian London way before Revolutionary France. :D

It sounds like they'll be adding more to the gameplay, which will be nice. And it looks great based off of those pre-rendered shots.

Hopefully it's not deprived of it's natural beauty in a patch update like Unity was. Decreasing the graphics really bummed me out.
 
Its HUD looks AC III inspired, kinda how Unity looked AC II inspired.
 
wow, I swear, Ubisoft really knows how to make me buy their games. There is no way I'm not buying this next AC game.
 
Beat you, mate. But yeah, this annual release thing is becoming exceedingly annoying. I don't even know if I'm gonna bother getting Unity now if there's gonna be another (possibly even better) game in less than a year. Like, what the ****.
Yeah same here...I think I'll just get Black Flag on the cheap and wait for next year's game instead of getting Unity...especially with so many PS4 games coming out soon.

I read that the same team behind AC3 was the main studio working on Unity, and that the Black Flag team was working on the next sequel. That sounds like good news at least, from what you guys think of AC4.
 
I prefer Unity over Black Flag by a large margin.
 
I'm having a blast with the helix missions. They're fun, quick, and give us a look at some nicely structured areas.
 
My favorite location in the helix missions has to be the medieval setting. Makes me crave for a game set there.
 
Yeah it just ended. Like, bam. The end. Plus there was no mention of Juno at all. I thought she was a pretty big deal? :\

It was like running into a brick wall. It ended in a flash, with loose ends dangling everywhere and no closure.

Agreed. This was the most anti-climactic AC ending of them all. What's funny is the AC Rogue ending, has more meaning than Unity, but only for people who understand the Unity story line! LOL! IOW, Rogue players will have no idea what just happened, and Unity players, unless they kept their PS3/360 machines, won't be able to play Rouge and understand how that story line fits in.

The Sage story in AC4 I thought was brilliant. For those that don't know Aita is the Etruscan equivalent of the Roman Pluto, or the Green Hades. What was the mythos behind those characters? Hades drew lots against his brothers Zeus and Neptune and was Relegated to the "underworld", where Aita lives apart from the "gods" with humans living lives throughout history.

It was a unique twist to the character, and Unity teases you with a compelling story line, that through the Sage would be your chance to see the first civilization. No it was all a tease, and you are sitting there going "WTF?" The same line uttered by Desmond after uncovering the truth, only for entirely different reasons.

Unity is a beautiful game mired in technical bugs, long load screens, and a totally uncompelling story line.

Now we find out that the one guy who seemed to be the most compelling character since Ezio, is tossed to the scrap heap with the unpopular Conner.

Exactly! All of the endings so far have been total wtf moments. I didn't get Black Flag because after AC3 and what they did with Desmond, it was a total joke. I think they just rushed Unity. It clearly needs so much work done to it. I mean, they bragged about how many NPC's they can fit on the screen at once, when it's not even needed in some areas of the game and just becomes a pain when you try to run places. They just spam people everywhere and there's always popins and people floating. No wonder the game crashes and can't play!
 
On a side note, is anyone able to play online? Mine won't connect to Xbox live even though I'm logged in and connected to wifi and the rest of my games work. I know there was talks about the patch but I haven't been notified of it yet on Xbox. Or will it download automatically? Just new to Xbox One. So used to the 360 still.
 
If anyone is looking for a sale you can get ACU and Black Flag bundle on XB1... Digital on Amazon Prime right now for 32 bucks.
 
Unity will be cheaper in Summer, and probably more polished. ;)
