AC Shadows Title Update 1.1.1 - Release Notes (map unfog, level cap increase, change ToD and more)

Of all the games I've played in HDR, this is one of the best looking I've seen. Especially at night time, it's a massive difference between SDR and HDR.

If I could just slog through this shit until I get to play as the black dude. I'm tired of stealthing around.

I'm kind of annoyed you have to level up some bullshit to be able to change the ToD as well.

I still makes me laugh that the launch version forced you to slooowly uncover the map going through the bushes and didn't allow you to change the time of day (like past AC games).
 
Oh well, I enjoyed it.

It breaks the balance of the game, got to at least work a little bit before getting your cheats.

I just want to (hopefully) make it rain most of the time if I keep messing with time of day. Hopefully it changes weather too randomly.

I've got like 8 hours played, I haven't even started work on the house to do time of day. 10 hours or so is plenty of work to want it to rain in the game.
 
Game is good. Put around 80 hrs main story and some side quests missions. The more the better no complaints. I'll be playing the dlc after work if I got time. It's looking pretty good
 
The trailers and gameplay were enough for me. I rather replay got than that crap.
compressed YT videos, those always look like meh, there is 3hrs early acces videos on YT of new SH f , which made me rethink to buy it day1, graphics arent great on that which is okee but that gameplay uhm ermm ^^
 
only just started the quest leading to the island and I'm already happy to be back for more Shadows. Lots of new upgrades for the camp and the staff feels really cool for crowd control.
 
Both of those were deliberate design decisions. The devs have said in a stream that they were very reluctant to add these, but players demanded them.
And they were good decisions. Natural day/night cycles encourages different tactics vs doing the same thing every time after you turn to night. Map unfog is just unnecessary but players want to chase their icons. IMO it added to exploration. Never knew what was around the corner without actually going there.

People can hate, but Shadows is the best AC we've had since Black Flag. It's also the second time this series has had proper stealth focus.

They are remaking Black Flag using Shadows' engine. Shit I would re-buy Origins and Odyssey remakes using that engine.
 
Sort of annoyed the "free" preorder DLC due to the delay - isnt showing free for me yet along with many others.
Hope they get it sorted out before i make my way back to play it.
