Is it piracy to get a older version of a game you own digitally?
That's some philosophical stuff right there.
You can redeem it in Canadaland but it will be in local currency.

contain your hype. it will be 1 good game(depending on how much I'm sent will depend on what game it is) with 4-5 shitty games. they shall all be marked down as a mystery and it won't be a free for all. I will bask in the disappointment of the "winners" that chose wrong. I actually got the idea while chatting with Pupo.
Ok, UBI just patched out a major bug in Unity
lmao
good to know where their priorities are
I better watch out seeing as she knows how to use Twitter now.
Well it certainly runs better than it did at launch for me. There's definitely some missed opportunited, the story does go through a lull in the middle and the side stuff might be a bit much for some people but going for a stoll around Chicago and checking out the lamdmarks had a certain something about it.

Thanks. These $50 will be useful for the Xmas sales.
if one of those games is Grass Simulator then all will be praised

I don't know, but the game is a million gigabytes anyway, so I might lose interest before I even get the old exe back.
*drum noises*
Is this still happening?
I do kinda like this idea honestly.
*puts tinfoil hat*
IIRC there were a lot of non fixed issues with the game even back when it was released 12 years ago, so not sure it'd work properly on a modern machine.
This is mighty useful, thanks for all the awesomeness Aquaman
SRIV is excellent, but if you care about story you'll miss some things if you start with it.
I loved 3 and IV, in the end I think I liked IV more because using the powers was really fun.
Wyatt dropping some bombs.not as well as Valkyria Chronicles
This makes me want a Steam version of Cones of Dunshire.
Man, that's a LOT of Salsa Ramon photos and videos.
None of the UC games are actually "good", they are enjoyable for the set pieces and how well they are made, but the gameplay is average at best. The very definition of a blockbuster game.
This.
Are you sure those were argies?

TR2013 was way, way worse than any of the UC though

Gotta fix them microtransactions first, the pool filled with dollar bills was running empty.

Play Styx, avoid Ass Creed.
Hmmmmm I wonder how close this was to being on the money?
I mean sure the other releases that peeps bought blind in their droves were unknown quantities but they were all bought on hype, marketing and promotion than review, impression or opinion. Same thing happened with Unity and now lots of people are not too happy at both a game with technical issues but not exactly what was show or features talked about.

Please use your powers to tell us of the state of Far Cry 4 on release.
Dragon Age: Inquisition will save us. Believe!
Cross gen game running on the same or upgraded version of the Dunia 2 Engine. I'd say in better shape than most will expect but the name Ubisoft Kiev can strike fear into the hearts of men.
Actually Legacy Zero was saying the other day that the FC community has been asking and asking for months about feautres like the map editor and the devs have remained silient. Read into that as you will but the Map Editor for 3 came very late in the day but was used heavily in the FC3 promo materials.
It may have got good reviews but the Bioware that made Balders Gate II is long dead in my eyes. I know it's apparently reviewed well but from what I've seen it's an action focused RPG first and foremost with the tactical systems layered on top. How that plays out I don't know but I've never got on with hybrid systems in the past. Writting will probally be good though but we'll see.
So basically another shitfest but a less significant shitfest to what we've been used to lately. I guess I can live with that.
Same with any game though, they are kind of unkown quanities until out in the wild, more so PC games with variable hardware configurations. Any sensible purchaser would wait for a reputable place to benchmark a game before buying it and no review is going to tell you the full extent of technical problems (most never tell you any). After that you have user impressions (hopefully from level headed people) which more often paint a better picture than a professional review or three.
I've got no issues making blind purchases but that's because I know it's on me and I'm taking a chance and I'm not going to throw my toys out of the pram if a game turns out a bit wonky.

Oh man Grass Simulator is such a stupid game. First of all, I died in this game just by running up a hill... The game has weird popup in short distance... hello ? I want grass everywhere, there's nothing else I want to see in a game about grass! Game only has 4 modes: Some level with a house and lots of grass around it with cows chilling. For some reason you can use weapons in this game and can collect power ups, like slowmo mode + speed increase. One level you just have fixed camera and watch the grass & trees grow... lol. One level is some shooting test field and the last level is called "Dubstep" where there's weird music + cows spinning in circles....

Collusion tiem!If you all could post here backing me up about Steam Cards that would be great.

I'm surprised they didn't fix the Xbone version first
-The Evil Within: "That said, Bethesda still has to consider The Evil Within a success. It set a new record for the highest first-month sales for a release in the survival horror genre, according to the NPD."
-Sunset Overdrive: "Microsoft, meanwhile, probably isnt sure what to think of Sunset Overdrive yet. The Xbox One exclusive open-world action game was on sale for four days in October, but it didnt crack the top 10. It did come in at No. 9 if you count games by SKU (meaning only the PS4 version of NBA 2K15 and the Xbox One version of The Evil Within). And of course, none of these sales include the bundled version of Sunset Overdrive that comes with the white Xbox One."
goof for TEW, even with its flaws I thought it was a worthy survival horror game
and good for
Sunset Overdrive

Want...Blood...Dragon...

what's wrong with you ._.
yeah i mean, that's not really limited to assassins creed but most ubi games in generalThe design of AC leads me to believe Ubisoft execs have a massive whiteboard, which they want the devs to completely fill with individual features, with accompanying checkboxes - - Because that's all the games are at this point, or atleast what they've become.
They've not really evolved much (atleast in any meaningful way) since AC 1 / 2, and they're as shallow as ever at this point, imo.
Atleast we get comedic relief from the bugs in Unity.
far cry (at least the blood dragon whatsitsname thingie) is kind of the same thing and so seems to be watch dogs
and not even ubi only, i hear that's true for like tomb raider too and probably many other games
this whole thing of adding "value" by filling up the map with meaningless things to do only ends up cluttering design by dumping throwaway features on top of throwaway features without letting the game's core mechanics breathe
it's crazy how little has been done with ass creed's awesome climbing.
oh i'm pretty sure i dreamed it
but i'm sticking with it cos it's too funny not to
Hahaha oh Ubisoft you wankers! So they have just released Unity in the UK but it still is coming up as a site error when going to the store page. Well I guess those who bought it in the day and half it was up and those that had it gifted to them are sorted now. Still waiting on my follow up support ticket pressing them on the matter, I guess this is more evidence I can pass on to them they are taking the piss.
It's got the Morningbus® Seal of Approval as the best game developed by Croteam.
Was gonna do this, but you need a paypal too, and eeeefff that!
you joke but I want this game... I love shit games...
kind of bummed I missed out on that giveaway
Want...Blood...Dragon...
Not..want....Uplay...
i think the thought of Uplay is stopping me from getting the franchise pack
i think not much
they're already pretty high up there
most people just don't care about uplay i think

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Glad someone was paying attention. My 100% trustworthy, unbiased review went by with little fanfare.
I need to develop a vaguely foreign affectation and start making youtube videos or something.
I never had any issues with uplay, but I never had problems with GFWL either. I've lucked out
I just finished Blood Dragon for example, and the game launches uplay in the background and that's about it, it doesn't impact it in any way

General ineptitude.
Someone in the AC:Unity thread posted this about the PC version.
I was able to run everything on High settings, with FXAA and SSAO on, Bloom off. and was able to get consistently above 30fps. Even when I'm surrounded by NPCs. Only when it goes to a cutscene that when it start going between 25-50fps. (Usually when outside I get somewhere between 33-50 fps)
Now I can cap it at 30fps and wait for an official patch. I'm not sure if this will work for everyone but it's worth a try.
I just tried it out.

I leave for a few months and this is now in community...at least I'm not to blame.
Anyway that atmospheric Lovecraftian horror game that was announced/leaked last June just got a Kickstarter. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/571331118/scorn-episode-one?ref=category_newest

I somehow doubt that playing offline will improve AC:U framerates. "Smooth and fuck" is such a scientific way to describe framerates too. I mean, is there stuttering and this fixes it? Or does it like give a 10% boost to overall framerates or something? Does it also give me more VRAM so I can run the game at higher textures?
Some people were speculating that the 1.2 patch would roll out after the game is out in UK. I guess we'll see.

It gave me about 10-15 more fps. Seeing as how I could only do between 20-39fps at most when connected to the internet with those settings. Now I can run 33-50fps, 60fps indoors.
I didn't get any stuttering or lag either. The textures pop-in are still there though, but less frequent. But this is for me, I'm not sure how it would be with other people. It's just noticeably smoother for me.

Uplay
Upray

The PC version requires some work to get functioning on modern systems, but nothing that they couldn't just leave to the community to do. Angular Graphics made an all-in-one patch that does all the heavy lifting. Between that, and SH3 only requiring an FOV patch and an ini tweak for widescreen resolutions, Konami is just sitting on two of the best games and a ton of free money.
