Ok, there is a difference between the CPUs but something gives me the feeling it's preemptive bullshit from Ubisoft to get to spend more time optimizing the X1 version.

The platform holders shouldn't certify games in states like this.

That's fine. Some people are way more sensitive to frame rate than others
Wow... hahaha

You are right, still the non hardcore gamers out there will buy this.
They will have a shitty experience with it too. Meaning they will be disappointed with the game after paying for this shit.
And they will not understand why they didnt got the product they wanted as advertised by Ubisoft.
A game which runs at 20 fps is a scam, of a rushed product because of a major game publisher which only thinks of his yearly cow milking.
It's seemingly not impossible to get a fairly solid 60fps in the city: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfpNRkUkqOo#t=1471
LOL. This got me so much!
Although it says 60fps, looks like frametimes are still inconsistent with noticeable judder.
Yeah I did notice that, but that could be caused by the SLI - I can't get anyone who has the game to tell me, has patch 1.2.0 been deployed yet? Some have said it hasn't - but that is supposed to address some multi-gpu issues so perhaps that could fix the noticeable frame time spikes.

It's kind of expected for some ubisoft games to run horribly on PC. Farcry should be ok though.
The game also made by Ubisoft Kiev? The PC port of Unity, isn't particularly bad compared to the other versions.
Was posting in the official thread, just wanted to come in here and voice the well-established criticism that the framerate in this game is an embarrassment. I got physically ill from a sustained 1 minute ~6 fps encounter when I was playing with a friend in coop.
What are the chances that Ubi does the right thing and actually pushes out a performance patch for this game? Like, maybe a population density slider or something? What I played looked like it would be fun if it was happening in real time.

Your assignment for the day:
Find credible evidence of a previous game that Ubisoft released that was not optimized and then later fixed it and released a patch for it for the end users. It's OK, I'll wait.
If they made a density slider I would un-inhabit the entire world. HAving shittons of people standing around does not add that much atmosphere for me, anyway. In fact, all the NPCs in Unity are standing there doing nothing, really, except getting in my way when I run past them. Even when I go in a window, all 5 of the inhabitants all do the same pointing animation at me. What makes the ambience feel good, for me, is the world they crafted in the city. The buildings, waterfronts, mud and whatnot all make it feel good. The 100,000 NPC thing is just waaaay overkill. The engine can't render them, the CPU can't render fluid animations with such a high count, the consoles can't render them to be anything other than robots.
I'm not even getting into the companion app/locked chest bullshit or the micros, either.

Welp. Ubisoft is due for another "Black Flag" next year I suppose, if AC3's reception was any indication

Apparently you can fall through the world in this game. A friend uploaded this.

Didn't they patch the PS4 version of AC IV from 900p to native 1080p? Or did that bugger up the game more? I don't know, cause I played it on X1.

You want a shot at the champ? [NG gif winner July 23]
the most appropriate gif for that statement
Bad copies ? We're missing the missing "fps" ?
Now let's all admit it, it runs and looks like an Alpha.
Somehow you can even feel the X Rebirth vibe in it, crashes, horrendous fps, LOD issues and many more.
Wonder what were they using for the E3 presentations, Quad Sli Nvidia Quadro K6000 ?

So true , where are those days. Remember patches , day one updates , pre-order dlc in ps1/ps2 era? These days , with everyone having internet connection they can release 30 days earlier and get the money faster , not like 10 years ago when they needed to properly polish and beta test the actual games. They shifted from giving quality for money to give us money and F you ok?
The more I play this game, the more I hate it. People are not lying when they say the FPS is atrocious. It's not just outside either. I'll be inside a cathedral, and climbing up the stain glass will cause it all to come crashing down at 15 fps (I assume). It's really fuckin bad. like really bad. And these fps dips are pretty damn common.
The one thing that I don't understand, is that the more I play this game and see all these NPCs, the more I realize how hideous they look. So what is even the point? So NPCs look awful. FPS dips. This is legit worse than last gen Creed games. I 100% regret getting this. I have no idea how people can play this.

Straight resolution patch and it was out pre-release. Performance wise, the game was fine on both platforms.

Wait that could have been cancelled out do to AC Rogue supposedly being a really good game, well of course building off the foundations of Black Flag would do that however.
And better anti-aliasing on PS4.

I hope it does. That might actually prompt Ubisoft to exercise better judgement in future when deciding whether a game is ready for release, and whether they've made the right decisions from their customers' point of view.
Holy shit! My 760 would've been in tears trying to run this mess port.
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. The real truth behind all the parity stuff, was that the game was a fuckin mess and was barely holding together. This was clearly rushed and didn't have the proper time before release. It COULD probably get to 1080p with more time, but in the current state, hell no. It can't even run stable fps at 900p, and it dips to 15 fps and is full of bugs. Imagine them trying to do 1080p and actually trying to tap into the PS4 with where the game was at now. It would be even worse performance.
