Great game, glad I bought it. I don't even remember Assassin's Creed any more, and that's a good thing.
So some HUD elements are not centered to the middle display. Hope Ubisoft can correct this mistake, and if not someone from the WSGF.
How awesome, I actually can't wait to play it. I had been AC'd out for some time now. I was unable to finish Unity (Which I did like quite a bit). I kid you not, with just under two sequences left until the end; Uplay goes full Non compos mentis and turns cloud sync, along with some other stuff back on. [A Uplay update that didn't respect local config or Reg keys already in place]. Following which, summarily replaces my saves with empty saves. Even neglecting to keep any of them in the [#].save.delete format which exists for this exact reason.
Anyways without babbling any further about that, I was pretty livid. I tried to play Syndicate. It seemed really neat and I know I'll enjoy it someday. Yet, I just couldn't get going for longer than 3 or 4 minutes before Alt-F4-ing it in favor of something else. Fast forward to now. I saw the concept art and trailers and started actually started feeling some anticipation for an AC game again. I had to get another GPU for my youngest boy's PC and got a free copy with that. Now I'm truly looking forward to jumping in.
There's only one hiccup. I can't play the damn thing. First I'm greeted with a horrific buzzing sound so loud, I damn near rip my DAC off the desk when I jump up and back. So I resolve that mess (as well as I could until Ubi patches in fixed support for higher bitrate output and\or Dolby/SS). So a poor start indeed. I was just happy to know my copy at least launches which is better than some folks. Yet that's where the positives end for this one. I have tried everything I could think of from the entirely logical to absurdly unreasonable. All of which end the same; without even a lick of progress. The game Launches fine, I can make any changes I need to the settings without issue. However, as soon as I hit new game, then pick a difficulty the splash/loading screen starts for a couple of seconds then goes black and crashes to desktop. Seventeen days later and, well, stagnation is a fitting word for the situation. I suppose this was just my year to feel the iron grip of the annual AC issues. Those of which I had never previously been inconvenienced. Not even Unity or Rouge gave me problems. None, which I know is the exception, not the rule. Nevertheless, the more time that passes the less likely I'll end up picking it back up for a considerable length of time. Which is such a damn shame indeed.
My apologies in advance everyone. My plan to stop babbling on and on was; as per usual, a failure. It was, however, nice to get that off of my chest via some mild complaints rather than a rant.
