Tough date to have a beta (on the one anyway..)

maximusprime_4247d ago

Already cancelled the game. Opt for DriveClub and Project CARS....

I signed up for beta few weeks ago. It would be nice for me to try it and make me reconsider..
This game is not my "must-have" anyway..

Yeah I cancelled my preorder as well once I heard it was coming to the xbox 360 as well. By hearing that it ruined it for me as I was hoping it would be next gen only because these cross gen games are ruining the potential for some of these games and since it's a big open world you don't need it to be gimp do to last gen. Cross gen is fine when the systems are 5-6 maybe 7 yrs old not going on 9 yrs. I don't care if people haven't jump in the new gen yet, devs need to stop making games cross gen and force people to be with games or upgrade.

considering how many new releases there are around that time period it may be tough

SteamPowered4247d ago

Not a whole lotta sweet racers out on Pc right now. I may pick this up to ease my Forza 2 butthurt.

How a group of modders revived Ubisoft's cult driving game, The Crew

Back in 2023, Ubisoft announced it would shut down The Crew's servers on 31st March, 2024, which would make the game unplayable due to its always online requirements - even those with physical copies of the game were to be locked out. Needless to say, many were unhappy with Ubisoft's decision.

Some, though, decided not to just leave it there, and set about reviving the game on their own time and dime. Now a little over a year later, the fan lead Crew revival project - known as The Crew Unlimited - is gearing up for its release on 15th September.

Ubisoft holds firm in The Crew lawsuit: You don’t own your video games

Plaintiffs bring up a new claim, too, in amended complaint.

Christopher396d ago

***Replying to Ubisoft’s argument that the statute of limitations is up, the plaintiffs responded with their own photos of The Crew’s packaging, which states that the activation code for the game doesn’t expire until 2099; that’s an example of how Ubisoft “implied that [The Crew] would remain playable during this time and long thereafter,” per the amended complaint.***

I really hope this resonates with the judge on the two-sided talk Ubisoft has going on here. You can't have your cake and eat it as well, IMHO.

A few of more mishaps and Ubisoft won’t be around anymore anyway.

Assassin’s Creed and FarCry are keeping them alive right now, and it’s a shame. Tom Clancy games are at a minimum now, The Division had its run, Watch Dogs has come and gone, For Honor was something new-ish, their lacking in New IP, and their older franchises just aren’t getting the right love.

rainbow six siege is doing alright

neutralgamer1992396d ago

I hope the judge favors the consumers because it really sucks what thees companies are doing. I am sure these companies will simply change their user agreements to add these new "we don't own the games clauses"

victorMaje396d ago

Ubisoft keeps trying so hard to not want my money. I will oblige.

isarai396d ago

Good thing i haven't bought a Ubisoft game since ac origins, and even that was a mistake 😆

Levii_92396d ago

I haven’t bought a Ubisoft game since 2014 and i don’t plan to change that.

Jingsing395d ago

I haven't bought a Ubisoft game since Watch Dogs 3.

vTuro24396d ago

Funny, now Ubisoft doesn't own them anymore either.
