Assassin’s Creed II was a smash hit for famed developers Ubisoft upon its release last Christmas. The platformer racked up an accumulative of over 8 million units sold worldwide, as well as garnering critical reception. A follow up title was inevitable to be announced, and Ubisoft did just that with Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood. During Ubisoft’s E3 press conference, the game is being demoed on the PlayStation 3 and it’s looking amazing.
"Hello everyone, we have more details to share concerning the upcoming decommissioning of online services affecting several AC titles, including additional information regarding the DLC for these titles."
When will you decommission this new one? I’m only asking so I can be happier by not buying it at full price.
The dog Chorizo from FAR CRY 6 has wheelchair legs, so is hardly a decommissioned pet. In fact very useful for digging up dirt.
Immersed Gamer writes: "Ubisoft came out with the announcement that some of their classic titles are shutting down their servers. While this is not entirely surprising, the next bit is quite shocking. As Ubisoft states in regard to many of said classic games, “additionally, the installation and access to DLC will be unavailable”.
The wording is a little vague, so the actual paid DLC could be safe. But it doesn’t change the fact that multiplayer modes of Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood, Rayman Legends, and Driver San Francisco will surely be missed. Especially since no alternative exists in many of those cases. This happens to unveil right next to our story where I essentially beg Atlus to port SMT to modern consoles alongside Persona.
Seems like videogame preservation is on the down-low…"
And you want us to go all digital? This is the bull sh*t that makes me apprehensive to an all digital future. You corpo guys don’t understand game preservation or it’s importance.
Companies who withdraw support should be legally made to patch games to enable the 'owner' to create and host their own MP lobbies. This is theft
Assassin's Creed multiplayer hasn't been a thing for well over half a decade. That's a good reason to bring it back.
Hey, can we get an Assassin's Creed game without 10+ year old controls that are outdated and filled with bugs that gets ignored that includes progress breaking bugs from launch that aren't fixed even months after launch?
If you an assassin's like MP mode, I'd recommend Ghost of Tsushima Legends instead.
Game of the show so far, at least judging by this demo, looks incredible. reminded me in a way of Uncharted 2, over the top non stop action
this title is looking awesome
Wow. Jaw. Dropped.
Want. Now.
I loved AC2, if AC: B is even just more of the same I'll be happy. But this looks like it could be even better.
Times are changing devs are choosing the ps3 as the main platform good news for both sides.
