most notably draw distance tweaks
Incomplete message is incomplete.
That's what they said in their blog post and comments.

If they downgrade something I hope they give you the option of putting it back. I like the number of NPC's around, even if it breaks the game it looks awesome. I don't want to lose the tons of people.

could have fooled me- from the ubi forums:
edit:this was posted this morning, and he never got back to what Ubi meant by refurbishing. :/

I have not kept up to date with what is going on with this game, but my wife really wants this game, and I want to get it for her for Christmas. Is this game in a stable working condition that she will enjoy?? I read metacritic reviews of the game having a ton of bugs and that the product should have never been released.
Is it all ironed out?

I played about 3 hours of it yesterday and enjoyed it.
It's good enough to play and still looks fantastic.
There's still obvious problems like frame drops and pop ins but it's not exactly unplayable.
Awesome, thanks man!
I think she will enjoy it, but when I read those reviews saying it shouldn't have been shipped in its state, it worried me.

What the hell does that even mean? Is it going to be flat shaded graphics or something? Less citizens on screen?
Honestly I think its just them optimising poly/triangle counts on buildings and maybe making certain paths bigger for the AI to move through.
I'm expecting a large amount of people won't notice the difference.

Can everyone seriously just calm down? Way too much bs spewing from the mouth here. I don't know what's worse. The amount of whiney Crap being shat here, or the issues with the game.

It genuinely feels like they're trolling us when they say things like this. It's so important to you...yet your game launched as a buggy mess that frequently dipped into the low 20's? Come the fuck on...
it is, now that it didn't sell as well as they had hoped.
this game will do to asscreed6 what bf3 did to hardline.

But they didn't, it was just YouTube Compression lel
Ok, since no one will read the comments, i was being sarcarstic, as in i would not believe Ubisoft since they downgraded Watch Dogs, in that particular comment about downgrade i was talking about the video that another user posted that compared E3 Watch Dogs and PC Ultra Watch Dogs hence the "how can Ubisoft deny the obvious downgrade is beyond me", i was not talking about any downgrade related to unity at all, actually i even said that Ubisoft would not downgrade unity post release.

Ubisoft games are like sin waves. Farcry 4 was not bad on the ps4 ran fine and played OK from what I heard but assasin creed unity was unplayable. I barely ever trade in games now but I had to trade in unity while GameStop was giving 40 for it. Losing 20 dollars is better than losing 60.I swear the fps was constantly below 20 and every time I was on the in game menu my ps4 started sounding like it was gonna melt.

one type needs an app to unlock and another needs some stupid online game to unlock. it's annoying as hell if you like clearing maps of collectibles but don't feel like playing apps and online games to do it.

GerAlt-Right. Ciriously.
The companion app is a joke and an insult. It wouldn't be so bad if it didn't require days to finish some missions.

I didn't even bother with it, I think i'm just trading this game in for $20 and be done with it. Too many other games out there to play that are more worthy of my time

Haha yeah, I'm in the exact same situation. Maybe things will be working better in 2015?

I'm racing through the story campaign so I can trade in ASAP. I normally keep every game (still have Black Flag).

These guys are a joke since day 1 and their "parity" nonsense. From there it just spiralled to poor PR speak excuse and 30fps is better for "cinematic" design. These developers can't even hold a grip to logical constructs so it's no surprise why the state of AC:U turned out the way it is.
Patch 4... what a joke.

Since I don't trust them on the "no downgrades" til I see it and it plays well enough with a 970 will having uplay start in offline mode prevent it from auto patching? You know, just in case =P

Same, I assume this is it?
I sure hope this is it. Was waking a while for this patch before continuing my playthrough. I even started up AC Liberation HD while waiting.
6.50GB? Lol, they can't be serious.

Prior release was early access. We are hopefully getting the intended version now.
I hate this shit so much. Especially the Initiates crap, since that requires you to buy multiple games.
Ugh.
Sorry for the off topic rant, but where's my damn Getaway and 8 Days!
And they're both colour coded so you can just ignore them if you haven't bothered with either app, it's not something I like to see but it's incredibly minor.

I own every single mainline AC game + Liberation HD and Initiates only shows that I've played Unity and Black Flag, so I can only open 1 yellow chest in the entire game. Locking content behind a thing like this is one thing, but having it not work as intended is unacceptable. I've played all those games, except Unity, on my 360 on the same gamertag and every game is linked to uPlay and for some reason it only detects a single game.

Make it native res on PS4 and you'll have my money Ubi.
