StrengthGamer: This month's edition of Game Informer magazine showed up at our door this afternoon. Naturally, we flipped to the back to see the review of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood (assuming it was there due to the massive AC: Brotherhood front cover).
"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Hey, can we get an Assassin's Creed game without 10+ year old controls that are outdated and filled with bugs that gets ignored that includes progress breaking bugs from launch that aren't fixed even months after launch?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.
i don't care how good the reviews are, i refuse to support yearly games.
I must admit, I havent been following this title at all and know nothing about it.
In the beginning I thought it was an online multiplayer offshoot and thats why I've ignored it I guess.
It seems pretty and I enjoyed the first two games, I'm just wondering why this isnt AC3.
Damn this game is gonna be awesome, GOTY Contender second year running for franchise!
AC2 was such a HUGE leap forward from AC1, if they balanced the combat mechanics in broytherhood, oh boy assassins unite, this game will be a blast!
oh there is free dlc in the PS store already, weird but i have it already and cant wait for the game to release
I don't care if a game comes out yearly, as long as it's a good game and some effort has been put into it. And I don't think Ubisoft has been overly bad this Gen, there's certainly worse cough*activision*cough. I really enjoyed Scott Pilgrim, AC and the Tom Clancy games.
