So I was going to buy it, but after reading the Steam user reviews, I'm holding off on it. "Mostly Negative" was the opinion. Wondering how many of you bought the game and are experiencing issues with the game (namely graphical from what I've read, that makes the game unplayable at times)

I've watched someone stream-playing it for a bit on the PS4 and they mentioned that the series is known to have framerate issues on the console..

Looking over the reviews on Steam, though, looks like it's not limited to one specific manufacturer like some previous games were (Such as, if I recall correctly, Watch Dogs was having issues with AMD, and some other games).

Hope they patch it up. Really enjoy the AC series

Wait for some patches/sale. This is common place on all platforms right now... If on PC Uplay is down a lot (but yeah that is common place with Uplay with any launch).
 
I have it and am 35% done with the game. The glitches don't really bother me, just some hair spazing out in cut-scenes. Other than that the game is amazing, really nice fighting system and customization, there's a reason to have money now. I'm sure they'll fix the optimization issues soon but, since I have played every assassins creed up to date, I can easly say once this is fixed, it will be the best. So much to do in this one

I have to respectfully counter-point your last sentence. There's too much to do. The map is a cluttered mess and I find it very annoying.

Combat has been changed, you can no longer grab an enemy to use as a bullet shield when you are being shot at. Also enemies are smarter so you don't want to engage more than 2-3 at a time, if even that many. Arno becomes the first character who cannot slaughter an entire army all at once. I'm very mixed on that. I like it but I don't.

Co-Op is here and for the most part I like how they've implemented it.

Customization options are through the roof. You can personalize your Arno a lot, and as you play through co-op you'll find no two Arno's are alike. Lots of customization for appearance, weapons, and all that great stuff. Probably their best tweak on this game. It's essentially all the multi player customization you could do for your characters but now in the single player, with even more options.

Miss the multi player, but as much as I loved it I suppose it was stale and time for it to go. Black Flag was the first one where I didn't play a character to lvl 50.

Also, to counter some of the high-profile media reviews, I don't think the story is that bad. I'm enjoying it.

That's my 2 cents. Not their best work, but not their worst either.

The only thinng i hate about the co-op is half the people don't use mic's
 
I played it and of course my PC was below par the game is good but my prob and its my fault and the thing is that it is sup slow when peeps come in the picture I mean crowds of peeps. and it slows way down. other then that I am emjoying the game but the thing is that I am not enjooying that you have to buy skills. to many econ styles of getting stuff I remember the good ol days where you had to find the stuff and you got tough. and that the skills where passivly earned through game play now its just buy buy buy. and in addition I also dont like that you can fully co op this game. would be cool running around with 3 other friends. so far IM stuck at the notredom church and I keep getting caught so I quit even tho the progress I made was semi great less it saves my check point.

Oh man you said it! What's the point of playing a co-op mission if you're not even going to speak to plan things? You can get away with that in some of the two star missions, but I don't see it going so well in the other missions.

Are you on PS4? You'll know if you join up with me. Not only do I have and use a mic, I speak in a French accent to further the immersion. :)
 
If anyone has a Club on PC I would like to join. Ive not had any issues playing.

I do coop for money all the time to finish up buying my legendaries and I never has anyone ever used a mic, we all just know what to do since I'm about 6 ranks from Legend rank lol
 
have it and i have to say after some updating the game is great no big bugs. Only two instances where mass crowds or a huge building would hurt my frames but otherwise amazing co-op is fun but i don't have anyone to play the game with :(. Anyways graphics 8/10(made my pc cry for suicide at first) Story 9/10 Co-op 9/10 Network 5/10 Free dlc 9/10
