If this games is good how Assassins Creed U run so bad?

Ubisoft don't build very well optimised engines for some reason. Far Cry games have always run on Crytek, or a slight variation of Crytek, and so run like a dream on everything including PC.

I think you mean CryEngine*
And you are correct, FarCry 1 used the CryEngine 1 game engine, whilst FarCry 2 used the Dunia engine which is based upon CryEngine.
However FarCry 3 and 4 use the Dunia 2 engine, which is a variation of Dunia 1.
So although there will be some similar code in all those engines, they're still different beasts, which is to be expected, there is almost a decade long gap between CryEngine 1 and Dunia 2 engine.
It's like comparing the latest Call of Duty to Quake, Call of Duty uses a variation of the Quake engine, but today they're a night and day difference.
Same goes for the source engine which has roots in Quake 2.
However, what I personally think Ubisoft needs to do is... Fire all their game engine development teams and re-assign them under one roof to develop a single engine, then they can also cancel any engine licensing contracts.
They could save a fortune.
Then because there is suddenly a significant upkick in terms of man power working on a single engine, there should be less bugs and added efficiency gains resulting from more development time and bug testing on the engine itself, as it's no longer used for just a single title.
The PC would also benefit massively as AMD, nVidia and Intel can target their respective drivers for better performance and image quality.

Yeah you are right
EA is much better for this with DICE, one engine to rule them all
