Hadn't much of an interest in this until that trailer. Now my interested is piqued! Still getting Rogue first, but will definitely be picking this up sooner than i thought!

Ubisoft are having a livestream event on Friday and if you RSVP you get free dlc on launch. You don't have to watch the stream, I think( Stream on at 2am Irish Time)

Not available on steam?

Abstergo f**k yourselves Ubisoft.

Given the level of promotion GAME are giving them in the UK, I'd wager it's another exclusivity deal similar to what THQ tried awhile back with Space Marine.

Wow. I wonder if that's a cutscene or if different time periods will be available during the game.

I've always thought they were missing a trick by not including Singularity-like gameplay in AC, where actions in one time-period can change events in the other (so kill someone in the past and an enemy disappears in the present, hide loot in the past and you it's a treasure to pick up in the present etc...)

That trailer with the ww2 segment was a major spoiler. Would have preffered to have found out about that through playing

This only applies to the U.K. I just checked my Steam, and I can pre-order Unity and Far Cry 4.

If there is a deal done with GAME UK, then it might be a timed deal and these games could appear on Steam a week or two later.

RoyalCelt

OK I've decided what I'm doing as regards AC. Going to play the Adeline DLC fo Black Flag and complete the BF campaign to 100% sync. Get Unity loaned from a friend and buy Rogue for the PS4 when it gets it's inevitable PS4 release sometime next year.

Also would like to add after seeing what Rocksta have done on the PS4 with GTA 5 Ubi have no excuses whatsoever. Need to get the finger out or more people will loan their games or by them second hand a few months later for cheap.

I would have got this day 1 if GTA was not coming out

GTA is one of my fav franchises so I gotta get GTA

then when Im finished with gta its gonna be between this or farcry

will see which game gets the better reviews im not mad on AC but do enjoy playing it then trading it in when done there not games I would go back to once I have finished it

This is out tomorrow in the US and Thursday here and I'm still seeing no reviews anywhere? Is there an embargo until release day or whats the story?

Sephiroth_dude

I was tempted to get this but then I remembered I didnt finish black flag yet so I better hold off, also farcry 4 next week \0/

EoinMcLovin

Smyths have the game down as 54.99 on their website, 69.99 every other place. Not sure if this is final as most other games are down as 64.99

Varik

Going to hold off, Ubi do some good deals around Christmas and I'll not be playing it soon anyway.

don't forget to buy the freedom cry dlc for black flag. it's very good. also rogue on the ps3 is like a sequel to black flag. However that will likely come to ps4 within the next 6 months.

Reviews will be out today at 5pm GMT. So far, I am hearing about a lot of problems with performance on all platforms and many bugs. Does not bode well

The worst thing I've heard about the performance issues is that the Day 1 patch (around 900MB) has not fixed these issues.

Thought they would have learned form creed 3.ready for a play after Xmas so.

cherryghost

Lots of performance issues on all platforms, but it looks be sporadic. Some PS4s run the game absolutely fine while others do not. Same applies to Xbone units and PCs.

At least some of the reviews coming out are good. So when the game actually plays correctly it seems to be worth it. I'll probably wait until issues are fixed though.

7/10 from GameSpot, citing an underdeveloped opportunity to explore this particularly fascinating time in history, but the graphics and feel of Paris is excellent.

Kotaku (for the first time ever) are recommending you skip this year's Assassin's Creed.

7.8/10 from IGN.
