Ubisoft Has Delivered a Solid Performance in For Honor
Ubisoft Has Delivered a Solid Performance in For Honor
I spent the whole day testing the beta and must say Ubisoft did a great job. My machine with a 280x display handled it smoothly on high settings, delivering a very smooth frame rate. The performance is amazing and the visuals are stunning. I’m probably discovering one of my new favorite titles. If everything continues well in the rest of this test, I might be willing to spend the $60 price tag. Edited January 27, 2017 by Orangeator Added Benchmarks
I'm just eager to see if Ghost Recon Wildlands turns out well. Please don't ruin it, Ubisoft!
It's really impressive how well For Honor is optimized, and it's a lot fun to play. The best part is you don't have to run it at full speed—this cinematic style actually improves with lower frame rates. It's difficult to put into words; you'll need to play it yourself to truly appreciate it. Yeah... the player above isn't overly confident about the game.
Businesses realize players are frustrated by excessive noise, particularly around PC launches. Ubisoft is similar to the past EA, possibly entering a phase where they’re making adjustments to their processes. More indie studios are gaining recognition for completing polished games, whereas big-name companies like Ubisoft continue to struggle with bugs and problems.
I ran some tests under a confidential agreement (seriously, Ubisoft), and it didn’t work well. An open beta is also launching soon, but the online DRM caused major issues during alpha testing. You can’t share with friends because of that. The gameplay feels quite average—it’s just dull. The only positive part was the physical feel, probably. Using drones and scouting before entering the area reminded me of something in Arma, though they did it poorly.
Honor is excellent overall. It still has a few issues, mainly with the limited Windows mode on laptops. I played it on my desktop, which works perfectly. The game is really enjoyable and fun to play. The PvP features are solid too—no major complaints there. There are some compatibility problems, but most of them are minor. A lot of customization options are available, making it a great experience. I might consider purchasing this one in the future.
Yes, Ubishit handled the 1404 project quite well before a legal dispute arose. Nowadays, in the U.S., it's referred to as "dawn of discoveries," which largely overshadowed the original work.
