It kills the companion app and unlocks it all

GameSpawn3394d ago

A day late and a dollar short. I'm done with Unity. I'm only missing a couple online related trophies which I'm not really motivated to get as well as earning the Bonus score for a few of the Helix Rift missions to get 100% sync for the Rifts and the ENTIRE game.

That's great news, however I didn't find it locked anything important. A few of the past costumes I think, but my favourite is the prowler gear in black anyway.

Edit: I forgot about the rift artifacts, so they're available now? Will do a quick run through them I think.

Altair outfit unlocks if you collect art rift artifacts

Ubisoft should seriously crack down hard on fixing this game. It would be such a waist, the game is pretty good.

Tapani3394d ago

So it took them six months to fix the game. Can't believe this sold millions while being broken. I wonder if the game had a chance to sell even more copies, were it in a better condition from the start..?

hasamalaha3394d ago

Most users experienced minor issues if any. I got the game for Christmas and had no issues.

BC_Master_Haze3394d ago

Most users on what statistics exactly?

starchild3394d ago

But it's not broken and never was. That's just a bunch of parroted nonsense. It was pretty glitchy, but nothing game-breaking and a lot of that has been improved with the patches.

I've played it on PC since day one without any real issues.

WizzroSupreme3394d ago (Edited 3394d ago )

Good, games don't need "companion apps."

Muzikguy3394d ago (Edited 3394d ago )

It is a crazy dream of mine that games get released in working order without the need for patches. What's crazy is that the day actually existed once before

Edit: when this generation started I thought I'd like the idea of companion apps. Well, I don't. They're useless IMO

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

andy8583d ago (Edited 83d ago )

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

Five small but brilliant maps in games

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

Furesis561d 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.

DarXyde561d 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.

YourMommySpoils561d ago

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

Knightofelemia562d 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.

RaidenBlack561d ago

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

ToddlerBrain561d 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.

staticall561d 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.

anast561d ago

Unity was okay. I prefer Syndicate and Origins.
