So I just picked up this game about 3 hours ago for Playstation 4 and been playing for the better part of the past two hours and am just wondering if it's me or this game is almost unplayable? Apart from the hundreds of glitches I've already encountered and dismissed as "AC glitches" (wall/stair clipping + running through people + scripted events not working out well with some NPCs being stuck in loops) I'm also experiencing the worst framerate I've gotten from an Assassin's Creed game.
I'm talking way below 30fps, anything that involves me taking cover reduces my framerate drastically to unplayable levels. The game looks absolutely fantastic with the tiles shining, flags moving with the wind, fire/smoke being my personal favourites "next-gen" moments. But what's the point of having all that if whenever you have too much activity (or too much greenery I found) the game slows down like crazy. Game came with a ~850MB Day One patch that only makes me imagine what the game must have been like before.
I'm pretty disappointed, I love where this is going in terms of story-telling so I'll stick with it for now but will probably be returning it to GameStop for Dragon Age/FarCry4/GTAV next week. Hoping a last minute patch resolves some of the issues to convince me to keep the game.
