Assassin's Creed V: Unity

Seeing as they must have expected internet rage over this...as everything gets it these days...they should have just told the truth.

They can't be bothered to put the extra effort/expense into the PS4 version.

Or they have been paid off by Microsoft to make them the same

(hopefully enough on that post)

I'm glad I never give money to Ubisoft.

Seems pointless to cap one version to avoid debates when doing so itself creates debate. The fact you're capping in the first place shows a fact the world already knows, which is that PS4 is easier to achieve such results from than XBO. It helps no-one (bar effort) and causes minor, though still present, impact on the brand as being less than what it should be. Daft decision, now we'll also get years of annual 'is it going to be 1080p or not' chatter.

Still, I'm going PC this time

Why do ubisoft care whether people debate the relative merits of each version? Does it affect sales? No.

In a nice, happy communist kind of way, I kind of like the concept of their approach. Unfortunately, by attempting to bypass any form of console power war, they've done the exact opposite.

Nice one Ubisoft. You truly are the PR masters.

[Brad]

Pc version 900p and 30 too?

Ubisoft: "We won't bother making next gen versions better, you'll buy it anyway, just like all the previous ones, bitch."

[Neon Ignition]

From what I can gather from elsewhere the PC version is exempt from the restrictions so could be the only way to have 1080p etc unless Ubi do a PS4 post release patch like they did with AC4

Didn't Ubisoft gimp the PC version of Watch Dogs? Just saying

Oh yeah at launch the PC version was awful, since fixed up pretty well I think. Regardless even as a PC gamer generally these days. are you really going to notice 900p vs. 1080p?

[speedlolita]

Nah. Peddling back the PS4 version so that it has parity with the Xbone version is hilarious PR rubbish though.

[Team Andromeda]

Big fuss about nothing really and I wouldn't say too much but even at 900p This game looks better than most other games .

[nakamura]

What a load of waffle.

[Brad]

Yeah dunno why I even care. Not like the ac games are actually worth playing.

If I had enough money I'd do the opposite of what Ubisoft claim to be doing and I'd troll fanboy gamers as much as possible. I'd bring Half Life 3 out but only on Mac. Battlefield 5 would be best played on WiiU but you'd need Wiimotion + nunchuck controllers. The PS4 and Xbox One versions would only be 720p compared to 900p on the Wiiu. The PS4 version would need Move controls and the XBone Kinect. I'd complete the trilogy with a promised new Sonic game; all the trailers would show old school Sonic but at 1080p 60fps but when the game came out you'd play as Big the Cat with just a small 2 minute level where you play as Sonic right at the end. All the dev effort would go into that lats level so that it was utterly amazing thus causing the question WHY!!!!???? on review sites all over the world. As game director on all these titles I'd then do an interview with someone crap like Kotaku and sit there justifying all my decisions.
