Ubisoft sucks

Yep, they promised two new maps over Xbox Live for POP2 and an auto-update (patch for all the bugs) back in mid-January, but they havent said anything since. Some people cant even finish their game because of all the bugs. But instead of launching that damn patch they release another POP2 demo :lol

POP2 was probably my last Ubisoft game I purchase (unless POP3 is on the way, which will be purchased WHEN IT HITS $20!)...

I dont get companies that wait so goddamn long before launching the new DLC stuff. Same with Bungie, release the new content while the game is hot.
 
The patch and DLC for Ghost recon 2 is taking forever too. Wonder why, since Ubi soft has been among the best developers when it comes to that, splinter Cell: pandora tomorrow is probably one of the games that has gotten the most updates on xbox live.

I was under the impression that MS doesn't allow companies to release patches for non-online problems. The thinking was to prevent companies from releasing beta product and then update them later the same way they do on the PC. Am I wrong?
 
I'd ignore the reviews and wait on Chaos Theory as well. You know some game killing bugs which weren't reported in reviews are in the final version.

EA buy UBI out and then use your mass amount of employees to playtest the hell out of their games so they offer a semblence of polish.
 
It's not like it's the only game that has a section for "Downloadable Content" and it's completely empty months after release.

POP2 was an abomination IMO. I wish they had never made it.


Did you play through the entire game? I do not see how it is possible to make that statement if;

A. You actually played through the game
B. Liked SOT

We'll be able to blame Wyzdom and AtomicShroom this time.

Wha?????

You mean like the crappy online implementation of Burnout 3??

EA having control over UBIs games would probably make matters worse.

I played enough to realize that I hated where they took the franchise. That was simply enough. I played SOT, simply amazing. PoP:WW really disappointed me.

We obviously have differing opinions.

If the game isn't Madden, crappy online implementation is par for the course for EA.

I'm talking about game killing bugs which don't let you finish the game.

Is POP2 $20 yet? I refuse to pay anything more.

Don't.

What really pissed me off was that I hated the music in the game, but when I went to turn it down, it also turned down the volume of the voices of the characters. So I had to strain to hear what they were saying in the cutscenes. It was stupid. I don't know if it was like that on the other platforms, but thats what it did on my Xbox.
 
I really enjoyed the first prince of persia game of this gen, it was such a shame to see that they did an almost 180 for the sequel. I'll give it a try for $20, but it is almost depressing to see the lighthearted prince completely change into a grizzled angsty rage machine.


Oh yeah, and the obligatory BEYOND GOOD AND EVIL 2 BITCHES!

So, what, we're talking like, the first loading screen?

honestly, gamers can piss, bitch and moan like no other species on the planet--there was nothing about the game that was an "abomination" Go play Catwoman, you seem to lack informed judgement regarding what shit smells like. :)

We aren't talking about Catwoman. They completely ruined the franchise for me. It's like going to Spider-Man 2 and Parker is now like Flash Thompson.

Please, cut the crap, or crap smelling. :lol

Two only good things to come out of Ubisoft: Beyond Good & Evil and Lumines

No, it's Splinter Cell :), oh and sands of time obviously.

I suprised you feel that way. I do too. I reckon if I get to play BG+E, I'd like it too (maybe not, cause i hated Rayman and he was designed by Michel Ancel (?)sp... Couldn't get into their other products.

And of course, they're only publishing Lumines so that in a way doesn't count :O

Sand of Times, maybe. Splinter Cell, oh hell naw
Totally agree, I could never get into the trial-and-error gameplay of Splinter Cell. PT was fun for a bit online, but it's practically impossible to play casually.

Believe me, the testers at Ubi Montreal do find the bugs. It doesn't mean they are corrected. The blame is elsewhere in the production team.
