Assassin's Creed spillene er en af Ubisofts største franchises, men omdømmet har fået et alvorligt hak i tuden, efter udgivelsen af Assassin's Creed: Unity i sidste uge. Massive tekniske fejl i spillet og en embargo politik, der betød, at anmeldelserne af spillet først udkom flere timer efter udgivelsen, er årsagen.

Spillet har for mange været helt uspilleligt, siden det udkom. De uheldige omstændigheder omkring udgivelsen betød sågar, at Ubisofts aktier faldt med hele 10 procent. Ubisoft har allerede udgivet to nye patches for at forbedre spillet, og en tredje er på vej med følgende ændringer.

  • Gameplay: this includes bugs like Arno getting stuck on certain areas of the map (including a few more hay carts), problems with getting into/out of cover, character animation bugs, and general camera problems.
  • AI & Crowd: in this category are problems with NPC animations, crowd events, and crowd stations, NPC navigation issues, as well as bugs related to NPCs detecting Arno's activities in various situations.
  • Matchmaking & Connectivity: this covers a number of issues related to co-op play, including bugs with joining games in-progress and problems that happen during host migration.
  • Menus & HUD: fixes in this category will address missing details in certain menus, problems with some of the mission objective and co-op update pop-ups, localization inconsistencies, as well as some of the issues with menus and pop-ups overlapping each other.
  • General Stability: this includes fixes for a number of crash situations we've identified in both campaign and co-op modes.

Der er endnu ikke sat en dato på, hvornår den tredje patch udkommer. Gaming.dk har besluttet at vente med at udgive en anmeldelse af spillet til når den tredje patch er udkommet.
