In order to find out whether the game scales well on a variety of CPUs, we simulated a dual-core, a tri-core and a quad-core system. A simple workaround (that not always works) is to either restart your game or your machine whenever those stutters appear, however Ubisoft needs to address it as soon as possible. Moreover, performance takes a big hit and mouse movement is as unresponsive as it can get. During those stutters, all physics go crazy (and most noticeably the hair physics, resulting in THAT hairstyling AC joke that has been circulating the web over the last few days). Most of the times, these stutters appear right after a cut-scene, making the game almost unplayable. These stutters appeared in both SLI and Single-GPU modes, suggesting that there is something really ‘strange’ going on in the background. NVIDIA has already included an SLI profile that offers amazing SLI scaling, however we witnessed some really frustrating stutters that happened randomly.
Assassin’s Creed: Unity is by far the most beautiful game with an amazing lighting system and some glorious Global Illumination effects.Īssassin’s Creed: Unity is powered by the next iteration of the AnvilNext engine and as always, we used an Intel i7 4930K with 8GB RAM, NVIDIA’s GTX690, Windows 8.1 64-bit and the latest version of the GeForce drivers.
However, we should all admit how gorgeous this game actually looks. A lot has already been said about Assassin’s Creed: Unity and to some degree, gamers are right Assassin’s Creed: Unity is a mess.
