why couldnt the heading be "Assassin's Creed Unity Looks Great Running At Max Settings On PC"?

Shows No Downgrade? which is apparently there in the console version? click bait much?

you judged that by 4 screens that are hardly any varied ?
yeah wait till they release scenes with grown up arno in crowd.

more importantly wait for digital foundry before blatantly stating the pc version is the same as the first trailer.

also fyi a 780 ,i7 2700k is having trouble staying at 30fps with vsynch OFF.

"wait for digital foundry"

Yes, lets all just wait to be told which one is which and what looks better on what system.

Seems to be a common theme with all these resolution/framerate debates.

purp13m0nk3y3483d ago

There is good reason.

Digital foundry performance analysis is at least accurate and unbiased. Rather than some random saying, version A looks great vs version B that has Downgrade.

Sure their analysis tend to be over critical at times, especially on framerate where a game running between 50-60fps is suddenly completely unacceptable lol.

But they at least back up their opinions with cold hard facts. The fan bois hate digital foundry because the facts almost never mirror their delusional rantings.

starchild3483d ago

I don't need Digital Foundry, I know enough about graphics tech to see for myself that the game looks equally as good as it ever did. Even the console versions look pretty much the same and are not missing any graphical features seen in the original video. The PC version does, however, feature exclusive graphical features not found in the console versions.

The quoted performance is cranking up all the settings to the max--tessellation, TXAA, HBAO+, PCSS (contact hardening shadows), and all the other settings. Anybody with a brain knows that it's going to super demanding with all those settings cranked to max.

>shows no downgrade

Just like Watch Dogs even after all those hidden debug settings were enabled? Probably

TheOpenWorlder3483d ago

It's definitely downgraded. I'm one PC gamer NOT in denial

MadLad3483d ago

And one on a crusade against Ubisoft, ever since your "review" of Watchdogs, Ali . . .

TheOpenWorlder3483d ago

Oh this jokester. Man go write on Durrooo or whatever the shit it is that no one knows. Stop being anal hurt about other writers in the process princess

MadLad3483d ago

I will.
And I'll enjoy the ever-growing viewer base that we've been enjoying.
You have fun writing phony reviews for WCCFtech (an otherwise proper site) and being a virtual ghost otherwise, Ali.

Downgrades AND backtracked claims (going from 10,000 NPC's to "possibly" 5,000? LOL)...

I just hope I can get 60fps 1080p with my 770 is all I'm asking...

starchild3483d ago

I have the same graphics card, but I know for a fact I won't get 60fps in this game at maxed settings. I can't even get a solid 60fps in games like Shadow of Mordor and that doesn't look nearly as good as Unity. I also know that I won't get 60fps in The Witcher 3. These games are packing some cutting edge visuals and I think it's important to keep our expectations reasonable.

MadLad3483d ago

Planning on running SLI 970's for when Witcher 3 releases, luckily.

I Played Assassin’s Creed Unity Almost 10 Years Later. It’s (Kinda) Spectacular

Do the NPCs still randomly levitate every now and then? Even years later I noticed they hadn't patched that out

andy8572d ago (Edited 72d ago )

Honestly I loved the PS4 ACs. I'd love next gen ports of Black Flag, Unity and Syndicate

Small video game maps that are packed with things to do are better than huge but empty maps. Here are five small but brilliant maps in games.

Why Assassin’s Creed Unity remains one of the best games in the series

GF365: "Since the first Assassin’s Creed game, there have been entries up until now. There are more than a few titles that are far from an ideal stealth game. Let’s discuss why 2014’s Assassin’s Creed Unity is one of the best games in the series."

Glitchy as hell and flat story, nah this aint it. AC2, brotherhood and 4 were amazing games in every respective

Furesis551d ago

Yeah i would say brotherhood and 4 were the best for me. I have not played the new ones and Unity was my last one. Seems like i made a good choice.

DarXyde551d ago

I gave up after Revelations. Just couldn't bring myself to care anymore and I got burned out of the gameplay.

Definitely agree on 2 and Brotherhood though. Great games.

YourMommySpoils550d ago

A Ubisoft AC game that's not glitchy? That will be the day.

Knightofelemia551d ago

After constant glitches Arno being boring nah I am good I skipped Unity. I will always like the Ezio trilogy, Black Flag, Rogue, Odyssey, Syndicate. I use to love the franchise but now it feels stale and boring. But my list of favorite entries into the franchise will vary from other players favorite entries.

RaidenBlack551d ago

Odyssey is a really well-made RPG game ... but it ain't a proper AC game, even though its part of the lore

ToddlerBrain551d ago

It’s funny because, at launch, it was universally panned for being unplayable. It’s a great game that holds up today. I’m glad they fixed it.

staticall551d ago

The only good things i remember from Unity are pretty graphics and really good descending mechanics (even though it sometimes didn't make much sense, when your character can drop down from like 10 meter height onto a flagpole perfectly).

Game is glitchy to this day, i was playing in it years after the release date (with all the DLCs) and it's still broken. You had to reload missions too often for my taste (characters do not spawn, you fall through the floor, getting stuck in falling/sitting/aiming animation, hidden blade stop working, assassination target running away at the start of the mission). Story was meh, searching for all the treasures wasn't enjoyable at all. Coop was pretty much useless, i've beaten every coop mission in solo. Helix rifts were awful as well.

Not saying i hate this game or anything, but it got too many problems.

Assassin's Creed (i know it's a controversial opinion) and Assassin's Creed 2 are still great to this day.

anast551d ago

Unity was okay. I prefer Syndicate and Origins.
