caut_R, do games w Ubisoft CEO defends Skull and Bones’ $70 price despite its live service leanings, calls it ‘quadruple-A’

So it has potential to be a quadruple fail and sink the company?

Never heard of this title before.

Can confidently say that we’re winning the battle on this front.

Decoy321,

It’s basically them trying build a game around the funnest part of Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag, but somehow taking a decade to actually do it.

I’m only renting it off Gamefly because there aren’t many other new games right now. I’ll probably return it within a week.

doctorcrimson,

Nah I’m good no thanks

dlpkl,

They just had to remake Black Flag for next gen and PC with all the bells and whistles, and they would have sold fuckloads.

Halo 3, Call of Duty Modern Warfare and Mass Effect 2 were all triple A games. Whatever this game is that they are trying to peddle, is not better than any of the previous games I listed.

Decoy321,

In fairness, there are tons of shittier games that are considered AAA. this statement isn’t meant to defend Skull and Bones, it’s meant to show how this rating system has been diluted to useless marketing.

Hey guys, I’m developing a quintiple A game! It’s real because I just said so! Also the price point for AAAAA games will be $145 cause that’s how awesome it will make you feel.

p.s. - planned DLC releases during early access for only $99, what a bargain!

They make The Crew unplayable in a month, without any chance to ever play it again.

And they expect me to pay 70 € for this? What?

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, oh, no, you won’t!

Rakonat,

People should have stopped buying ubisoft games a long time ago

This game will be $40 in 6 weeks and discounted to $25 during a summer sale.

Ubisoft needs a gut check to the bottom line…

Gotta pay for all those sponsorship dollars they throw at streamers promoting this turd.

If their game was that good, we would read about it up and down the net. The fact that I read about it here for the first time tells a different story.

maness300,

Eh, judging by the games we do read about “up and down the net”, I’m dubious of your claim…

Another A is crazy af lol. Ubisoft lives in their own world I guess.

More A’s

If this dude was a real gamer, he would have called it “S-tier”.

ours, do games w Helldivers 2’s concurrent Steam player record is PlayStation Studios’ highest yet

The game looks great. I guess they fixed the more glaring issues with their initial release.

People seemed to have issues logging in, matchmaking or CDT randomly. I’ll wait for a few trusted reviews but it looks like something I’ll enjoy.

Lesrid,

I had a bug where the obstacle you’re meant to crouch under spawned in at a height too low even for crawling. I had no idea it was a bug because I had never seen the tutorial before. After leaving and re-entering the tutorial it spawned in at the correct height.

Game is awesome though. If they smooth out the experience it will be my shooter of the year.

ours,

Good to hear. Sounds like a must-have.

bitwaba,

I refunded on day 1 because their anti cheat was preventing it from launching on Linux. They had a fix out Friday night, so I repurchased and have put maybe 6hrs into it.

I’ve been playing the early access Starship Troopers Extermination over the last 6 months, and after 30 minutes of Helldivers I told my friend “they’ve made a better Starship Troopers game than the Starship Troopers game.”

There’s a couple bugs here or there, but just playing 4-man with the homies seems to have avoided all the matchmaking issues.

ours,

I have Starship Troopers Extermination as well but I feel it has a long way to go still. I’m really tempted now to get Helldivers 2 and keep Extermination on the side as it progresses in Early Access.

Where is Ubisoft getting all this unearned confidence from? Their games have just been circling the toilet for the past 5 years or so.

pearsaltchocolatebar,

Probably cocaine.

RizzRustbolt,

It’s called Confiance Blanc in France.

Its $70 because they’re making back that expensive nightmare its been whether you want it or not.
