And I'm not wrong and the OP is. The OP (article) states that PC gamers we mislead by the E3 video. It's wrong because there were several videos coming up to the release that showed proper footage of what we're playing now. Therefore, we weren't misled and it's only peoples neglect or not-seeing those videos that is at fault.
It your complaint is "I saw the E3 video and it's nothing like we got, I've been misled" then you're wrong. If it's not, then this is the wrong thread for you.
And no, I'm not cocky, I'm just right. There's a massive difference. And as for opinions not being wrong? Really? Because you can be of the opinion that the sky is purple - you 'd be wrong, or on some super psychedelic drugs.
The game gets flak because:
  1. You apparently aren't told you need UPlay on Steam - Wrong, you are told. It's on the game page
  2. It's not like the E3 video and everyone was misled into thinking it would look like that - Wrong, there were several videos out prior to release showing footage of the final product.
  3. Steam had "Split-screen multi-player" listed as a feature prior to release and was pulled the day before - Right, and a valid, legitimate complaint... with Ubisoft or Steam
  4. Any opinions about the gameplay or content - Right because they're personal opinions

This game gets flak because its ubisoft

Rubers is right about the graphics fiasco. It's like watching CES now and thinking the products on show are the exact products for release. If you don't understand the ideas of prototype or companies over selling something at a large show, you obviously need some growing up too do. I would believe, hands down, that many companies show stuff at E3 in which never hits game shelves. They aren't their JUST to showcase games, they are also their to showcase the engines and what they can and can not do. So some reporter caught video of them showing off Farcry 3 a lil' too much then later they released what people would call "actual game play" videos. End of story. I'd call it quits with the debate their, as that's prolly about as far as you are going to get.

Oh, and the sky isn't purple Rubers it's red. wink.gif

I just don't get why its OK to CG a "demo" at E3 that looks much better than you know the real game is going to look? Why is that OK? Just show the game the way it is.

I've been playing the game in 1440p, and I think it looks good. The textures in some places are pretty bad, but overall I think it's pretty. I'm looking forward to some mods.thumb.gif
