I would hardly call that working. There was a recent article from IGN where Ubi was patching certain issues, while others still have yet to be fixed.

"Arno falling through the ground, crashing when joining a co-op session, Arno getting caught inside of hay carts and a delay in reaching the main menu screen at game start, poor frame rate, crashing, clipping, mouse lag on menus, freezing, poor rendering."

IMO, this is much worse than the online issues with Driveclub.

They need to patch some bugs and improve optimization, but ultimately the game works. You can play through the game just fine.

Online being virtually is a huge problem for those who want to play online. Driveclub was advertised for its unique online features as well.


According to the article the game crashes during single player as well as co-op, which it was advertised as well for. I would not call that playing just fine, nor would I consider it a working game.

You can play DC just fine too. As long as you aren't trying to get online. The game is not broken or buggy. Just really hard to get online but the single player works perfectly. But by your logic, all it needs its optimization to its netcode.

Also, AC can't just be played just fine. The game actually crashes and freezes and sometime the only way out is to restart the game. Those aren't small bugs to downplay. Especially when all the issues of AC creed actually affects how the game itself is played and experienced. With DC you just sometimes get locked out of a mode.

Whatever the case, both games are broken. But take a look at what ubisoft is focusing on fixing first.

But going online was marketed as a huge part of Driveclub so that's something that should work, especially after this long. Clearly a lot of people are upset by the online issues of Driveclub.

Halo:MCC having broken online is a huge issue as well because that's a primary reason people purchased that game.

Freezing/crashing is a nuisance, but issues like that generally don't stop you from completing the game so lets stop exagerating. I've completed many games with some crashing bugs and still had plenty of fun.

Again, occasional crashing issues is not the same as broken online.

Crashing is a nuisance, broken online can stop you from enjoying that game.

I understand your point but for me personally, all the issues with ACU would make me snap more than online issues as I prefer the single player experience in games.

Patch in some skin

Gets me everytime.

 

On topic tho that is fair enough of them to eat a bit of humble pie, heard the core of the game is still weak even when it is working tho. Bring on GT7/Vita tbh.



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

AC:U is working so fine that even metacritic of reviewers being 7.6-8.4 x1-ps4 the gamerscore was 3.1-5.1

At least now you accept Halo MCC had MP issues.

but I see you are still hating on DC.
