Yeah i have everything at their max and I get 30-80FPS depending on lighting. Still very playable. No lag, no bugs/glitches, etc. Game works great.

Kinda annoys me when people call this game a port becuase it technically isnt. It was made form the ground up since it was in development with the console versions.

Apparently its a locked 16:9 ratio. I personally dont mind it and you get it regardless of resolution. In fact, it might actually annoy me if they fix it.

It was developed from the ground up for consoles. It was ported to the PC so it is a port. It's the same as Halo, Grand Theft Auto series, etc. Came out 6 months ago for the Xbox 360 and PS3.

The thing with ported games is that they usually have issues on the PC.

I heard it was pretty much the same bar a few extra levels dont no how true that is tho.

First impression:
- Good framerate
- No shadows in cutscenes
- Voices are not loud enough

Anyone compared Vista with XP performance? Apperently framerates are higher in Vista.

I think you can change the volume of the voices in

C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Ubisoft\Assassin's Creed\DARE.INI

open that and change the NB_AUDIBLE_VOICES i think!

I like how they knock you off the building but you fall right into the hay.

Mussels · Apr 14, 2008

because the game is a console port, its locked to widescreen (16:9) ratio.

That means unless you're using a HDTV, you will have bars.

The game has extra bonus levels after you complete teh game - havent seen them yet, but i noticed them there in the animus.

Game runs fun for me maxed out with 'level 1' AA inDX10 at 1360x768 - looks good.

No problem

paybackdaman · Apr 14, 2008

Played it on the 360 loved the game. Didn't mind the repetitiveness. And the 2 end bosses are a pain in the ass. For the one where you fight the templars i just ran around in circles and they followed me, in circles, until my health came back up then i fought until my health went to 1 and began to run in circles again until i got my health back up...took me 20 min...but i felt accomplished none the less. Hope there is a modern day sequel...

Mussels · Apr 14, 2008

mine keeps crashing... updated to latest Nvidia drivers and now its just a crash to desktop, but its rather annoying.

imperialreign · Apr 14, 2008

curious, is movement similar to how Splinter Cell for PC was done? I thought that was a great port adaptation.

Anyhow, I've been considering picking up AC, but might wait for the price to drop some

imperialreign · Apr 14, 2008

ghost101 said:
The reason why the fluid movement is similar in AC and SC is because they were both made by ubisoft montreal.

I was just wondering if AC used the same type of movement control as SC.

I was curious, cause not all ported games are revamped in such an easy to control manner, y'know? If in-game control was horrible, I prob wouldn't even consider picking up a copy.

JRMBelgium · Apr 14, 2008

Controlls are fine. But it's best to use all your mouse buttons and not the keyboard...

CrackerJack · Apr 14, 2008

i use the xbox 360 control, but that's me

Picked this game up today. It kicks ass, I am very glad that I got it. I don't care about small flaws like cutscene shadows, the core gameplay rocks.

das müffin mann · Apr 15, 2008

but 40 bucks i've spent, excellent game i don't regret it at all truly one of the best games i've played in a long time

its got the story, game play, and the graphics, definitely one of those games to buy, even if you have the special demo

Agreed 100%. I think that Crysis and Bioshock still win the GOTY, but this is still a close third. I cant seem to put the game down......

Lol and id be happy just to play it accordin to minimum specs my lappy wont even run it.

If you can play Medal of Honor Airborn, then you can play Assasins Creed.
I played both games on maximum settings on 2048x1536. Medal of honor had higher framerates, but Assasins Creed does not require 50-60fps for smooth gameplay.

The game runs pretty smooth in the 20FPS area surprisingly.

Really? I get 35fps while riding a horse and it doesn't look really smooth. If you have 20fps then riding a horse must be really choppy, no?
