Forums - Gaming - Prediction: Assassins Creed Syndicate will flop horrible sales whise

here is why:

- Past Assassins Creed Games where very different and always had an unique new feature. We had Assassins Cred 3 which introduce Naval Battles and a big open world american continent, Assassins Creed 4 with high focus on naval battles with seamless switchting from ship control to 3rd person gameplay and co and as an nextgen consoles start title, and we got assassins creed unity as the first true nextgen assassins creed, scratching all the naval battles and getting "back to the roots" by focussing on just one big open world city with new impressive graphics engine. Assassins Creed Syndicate on the other hand does look alot like an Assassins Creed Unity 1.5 Version with very similar gameplay elements and co. Really whats new? Whats the unique feature? Coaches? :D

- Assassins Creed Unity made alot damage to the assassins creed brand and wasnt recieved as good as other titles. Scince Syndicate is very similar to Unity, many people might lost interest in the series.

- Ubisoft at all got an bad reputation in the near past with their games like Watchdogs, AC: Unity and the crew dissapointed the fans

- The series already fight against decreasing sales each year

- We have a pretty strong lineup for the nextgen system this fall which wasnt the case past 2 years (halo 5, Battlefront, Fallout 4, Just Cause 3, Rainbow 6 and more).

 

All previous assassins creed games kindled this "i need this"- feeling for me. I really wanted to have my own crew and ship and seamless naval battles in AC4 and i really want the first true nextgen Assassins creed game. But Syndicate? It doesnt have anything im interested in. Unity was an dissapointemt and Syndicate looks very similar to unity.

It's Ubisoft.

They will never make good games. They'll always give you a buggy, uncompleted, DLC ridden game.

EA does the same.

People always point out these flaws, so it makes you wonder. How do they still sell?

Because of the fact that they're Ubisoft and EA. They fool people, some give them another chance, and others simply don't care.

No debates on it needed. we all know Ubisoft has no reputation with gamers anymore.

12/22/2016- Made a bet with Ganoncrotch that the first 6 months of 2017 will be worse than 2016. A poll will be made to determine the winner. Loser has to take a picture of them imitating their profile picture.

I feel like it will flop by Assassin's Creed standards, but it will still sell millions probably. Either way I hope this game flops really badly so Ubisoft decides to put some effort into the series again and so they stop milking it like crazy releasing multiple Assassin's Creed games and spin offs each year. Every Assassin's Creed game has pretty much been a day one purchase for me until Unity and I want Ubisoft to regain peoples' faith in the franchise. This game is already apparently buggy and has day one DLC, so I know I won't be buying it. I have zero interest in this game.

Wow, really? That's this week lol

I haven't heard anything about this game. Seen no ads for it, heard nobody talking about it, don't see retailers pushing it particularly......and it comes out this week?



it's ranking up on amazon so it should sell decently.



it will sell at least 4 million this year
