Just because it's maxing out the hardware doesn't necessarily mean it's optimized well. Just saying.

Looking forward to it regardless.

Hey it may be true for them and their capabilities, but we need to keep in mind everyone doesnt have the same talents developing for consoles and optimizing. What may be maxing out for them (given their history and how competent we see they are) and whats maxing out for the likes of Rockstar, Naughty Dog and the likes of CR Projeckt might be very distinct. Another dev would and could probably do way more given their abilities.

Haven't almost all devs said this at least once this gen?

We ain't seen the ps4 footage 2 judge

I think if any devs max out current hardware it's going to be a first party dev (ex. Naughty Dog and The Coalition).

Never fall for statements like this.

That's why we'll need the next consoles sooner. 2 more years.

says he company who gave us watch dogs

Game looks fantastic on Xbox One, day one pick up for me.

The gaming industry has made me really cynical towards what devs say. So, I'll just say I'll believe it when I see the release version of the game. I'm no fan of Ubisoft, so I'm even more skeptical about their claims.

Maxing out PC huh? Worked for Watch_Dogs with all those hidden functions in the config to make the game look pretty good lol

This company gets zero trust from me as a consumer and their words mean %hit!!!! Far Cry 3, Watch Dogs and many other games they downgraded drastically on consoles. Big reason i havent bought a Ubisoft game since FarCry 3 and i dont regret it, im not missing out on anything.

this is beginning to look brilliant!

I would expect nothing different from them in terms of a statement. Obviously they are going to say this.

I hate these articles they are just flame bait to trigger console players. Every DEV once and awhile likes to say this to make it seem like they are pushing the limit and doing everything a studio before them has not. Yet every time someone manages to come behind them and make something better. No the consoles are not maxed out your engine is, can we just state it that way from now on. Your engine is optimized the best your going to make it due to time and money constraints. Another studio can and will come behind you and do better cause they will be able to tap into more power when SDKs become more advanced.

Maybe it's the other way around. Their talent and creative ideas are maxing its peak.

Devs always claim that they max things out.

Didn't they say this about Watch Dogs...

They're maxing it out, because there's not really much content in the game to render. ;)

Maxing out ps4 is equivalent to medium setting on PC, good to know

Eh!!! I'm not really as hyped for this game as I was when it was first revealed and another game from Ubisoft comes to mind. Watchdogs got me so hyped only to be disappointed and ever since then i've not bought a Ubisoft game.

Maxing out isn't hard to do. Actually optimizing the systems at max is better.

this video is actually worth watching.

And it looks at best average.

Maxing out doesn't mean much really. If there isn't any optimization, it doesn't mean squat.

Correction. Their game engine and coding is what they can do at Ubisoft atm. Not the same as this is the limit and is maxed out.

Picking up on Xbox one and PC. Hard to split up friends on all platforms but until they offer crossplay for purchases I will only pick 1 or maybe 2.

I have a high end pc ps4 ps3 and xbox one but I will be getting Tomb Raider 2 and the division for my high end pc because no limitations 4k all day every day

Yes, this statement is solo true until you see the Division 2, where they max your system out by 200% 😂

Hey, I doubt it!

Hasn't every developer throughout gaming history said that they were optimizing whatever system they were working on?

I just realised it's Trollingbolt, don't give them the clicks they are not to be taken seriously.

Maxing out PC?as in MAX support for a console port?lol

Ubisoft even your lies are full of bugs and glitches.

I think we are getting to the point where games no longer feel like games. The focus has been so much on graphics that we have lost the sense of artistic direction. This game looks no different than many of the other shooters that have hit the market of late. At least from my point of view. Who cares how many polygons a game has if it does not deliver at the end of the day.I guess what I am saying is that games are not what they used to be in terms of fun. Now they seem to be bound to reality a little too much and as a gamer I am starting to loose interest.

Lol a Ubisoft game maxing out a PC?

Bullshit! Than why does it look only half as good as uncharted??

man, i feel like this game is going to be overly buggy and glitchy

How can it max out the PC, when PC hardware isn't at a locked spec. Devs talking bollocks as usual.

Not sure why devs even release this info. Just make great games is all most of us gamers want. Looking forward to this game..

maxing out PC too ?

http://www.reactiongifs.com...

Ubisoft says we maxed out consoles = We are full of shit. Game will be unplayable &will likely look like shit

They say this, but I am willing to bet the SLI scaling is wank.

Downgrade confirmed.

lol maxing out the pc.... thats a little vague.

Developers need to stop saying that crap. They say it for every freaking game they create. The truth of the matter is... and I speak from being a Game Developer and Mobile Applications developer (IOS and Android). As a game developer you don't max out the platform, but what you do max out is your game engine capabilities on that platform. That's why you have devs of last generation saying oh we maxed out the PS3 with Saints Row for example and then you have other developers come down the road with gorgeous gems like GTA V, Uncharted 3, The Last Of Us etc. etc.

So there is a correction to be added to this statement indeed, i'm so sick and tired of these lies being spread out. Ubisoft said this same crap with Watch Dogs and then we get GTA V REMASTERED and it's bigger, and better in every way shape and form. I'm so tired of these false claims from Marketing to Development when it comes to Ubisoft and other Companies. I wish we could just sue them for false advertisement and get our money back for buying these games.

-Welp, that's my 2 cents... hopefully it's worth a dollar to you all.

ahhh this claim again, so using every cycle is not necessarily a good thing if its not optimized right, this could or could not indicate good development. This really tells us nothing.

Lol, Utilizing Every Tiny Little Cycles ? Maxing out PC ? Ubisoft ?Commercial BS...

"Maxed out" but i bet no or poor xfire/sli support, aka "the ubisoft way!"

I really doubt that and coming from Ubisosoft, I expect that game to have lots of bugs. That is just pure PR talk.

LOL I just came to laugh at this. Any Online ONLY game that makes this claim I am going to laugh at. Most of the assets aren't even on the HD/Blu Ray and every game that has made this claim looked FAR FAR from the part. I bet I can dig up launch titles that look better than the current build.

Holy shit I haven't seen that interviewer in years.

Only game that will convince me the ps4 is being maxed out is Uncharted 4 ....sorry division and Ubi
