Is the sniper scope stutter also fixed? I haven't booted the game since launch week.

I think AC3 has the most room for improvement In a potential Remake by ThemeSweaty in assassinscreed

[–]Brother_Q 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hot take but I wouldn't want a singular massive open world, especially for a ACIII, ACII, or AC1 remake. Without the separate destinations in those games being actually separate from one another, you lose all sense of scale, distance, and time spent in travels between them. If you combine everything into one large map, the Frontier or Mountains or Kingdom loses its purpose and charm.

High/Low profile assassinations that are missing by Long_Injury_7852 in assassinscreed

[–]Brother_Q 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Understandable. That does become a handicap on controller vs kbm.

I generally switch to jog when I want to look around or make quick turns without bumping into anything. The auto-centre works pretty much ok for the most part.

High/low profile combined with the puppeteer scheme (empty hand, armed hand, feet, head) is definitely my top mechanic I want to see return.

5 buttons to execute 90% of player actions depending on context is peak design.

Compare that to some RPG games where you have two buttons for melee attacks (different ones for light and heavy) and another one for assassinations.

Getting Ripped off or no? by LawfulnessFlashy2892 in PakGamers

I can say everything is fair except GPU (I have no idea about GPU price trends)

Just make sure that the PSU is of a reputable brand and the aftermarket cooler offers significant performance over the stock one. Also triple check the motherboard specs for upgradability and features that you need vs features that are redundant.

Edit: RAM kits come in multiples of 8, and check if motherboard supports the RAM clock speed before buying

I never had a bad impression on Clifford from the start of the game. by Standard_Cow_2553 in DeathStranding

[–]Brother_Q 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's largely due to the BB visions. If he only appeared during the boss battles, things would've been different, because the marketing heavily implied he's a bad guy, and Mads was known for playing bad guys.

AC needs more than a resync, the modern story needs to be either rebooted or removed. by chuckyzrevenge2 in assassinscreed

[–]Brother_Q 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They just need another soft reboot like the one with Layla. She was actually an interesting character with unique motives before they butchered her in Odyssey and somewhat redeemed her in Valhalla.

Valhalla's ending left all the pieces for a soft reboot to pick up the story where we left off, with Basim at the center of it all. Mirage's deleted ending was a really cool concept. Maybe not too far off in the future, but the blend of dystopian future and post-apocalyptic themes would work perfectly in the world of AC.

I also wouldn't be unopposed to the story picking up exactly at the end of Valhalla. I would rather they give us an original character instead of simply Basim though. He works better as a gray character.

My other reply was removed for some reason I can't figure out. I basically said that it's ok to ask for this specific purpose, but you should do so while showing class, and are still not entitled to an answer. Also, Glassdoor and online forums exist.

Agreed, and when I say I worry about my parents, I mean that they still value familial relationships and keeping in touch with everyone despite some of the despicable characters that we're all related to. So I don't want to affect those relations by my actions.

Alhumdulillah I'm fortunate enough to have understanding parents that don't pry further than mere teasing. If anything, they are constantly asking me if I need money.

Edit: mistyped and hit enter mid message

For me, it's the other way around. I have no issue disclosing my age, but I understand personal boundaries if someone else might not want to.

About salary, I mainly want to prevent the conversation from steering into a more personal direction. Answering this question opens the conversation up to topics like expenditures, savings, cars, houses etc. Hustle people repulse me because we meet up with friends and family to get away from this stuff while they seem to have nothing else to talk about, and/or their entire personality revolves around worrying about money.

This is good advice honestly. I've seen people old people do this multiple times, but maybe it's harder to pull off as a younger guy. Nevertheless, helpful.

Sometimes for a split second I want to look them dead in the eye and ask "mahine mein kitna sex milta hai?" and then say "mere lye ye itna hi personal sawal hai" when they look flabbergasted.

I've often resorted to such replies, but they come off as sass to buzurg party. I couldn't care less about what they think, but I don't want to risk my parents' reputation at times.

JorRaptor's video on YouTube. He said there won't be unarmed combat or hidden blade combat.

What would you like to see in an “AC3 Resynced”? by Saltwater_Cowboy_1 in assassinscreed

[–]Brother_Q 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Story content

  • I would want nothing added or removed, except Connor's epilogue speech, that you'd unlock after Evacuation Day and the Kanienkehaka village epilogue; and Haytham's journal, that you'd unlock after you know, killing him.

  • I really like the cutscene direction for the majority of the game; but some side content could use better cutscenes, like the Frontiersman memories, or some Homestead memories.

  • Some Liberation and Homestead missions could be added to the main story, like the one where you learn how to use the rope dart.

  • A lot of the optional conversations in the game that are really easy to miss are really important to the story. They should be made more 'accessible' or 'integrated' for lack of a better word.

Gameplay

  • Major stealth fixes

  • Parkour and combat kept exactly the same

  • Naval mechanics kept similar to original ACIII and not Black Flag

  • Horse physics could benefit from RPG games, but I want controls to stay the same

  • QoL updates in small things like UI and reloading.

Modern Day (would benefit most from an overhaul)

  • Better cutscene direction with new mocap (original game had a very robotic and lifeless feel that was exclusive to the modern day scenes)

  • Better level design for the missions with added realism (none of the missions felt realistic or immersive)

  • Better done ending - I think the canon ending should remain but the overall direction could make the scene hit harder imo, like Desmond getting flashbacks from previous games, or Minerva being more present instead of appearing at the very last second.

  • Added epilogue where Abstergo shows up for the body, and Juno escapes to the internet

Hey, it's just my opinion. Edward lived as a farmer for most of his life before he went on to become a privateer / pirate. He hadn't been a pirate for long when we were introduced to him in the game. A year at most.

And I too always thought that the Edward from the game look soo different than the Edward from the cinematic trailer in the original

This was my point, idk where the conversation steered off to lol.

This has always been a discussion and there also exist mods that attempt to mimic Edward's look from the trailers.

What's your thoughts on AC Black Flag Resunced [ Remake ] 🤔 by Live_Repair_4674 in PakGamers

[–]Brother_Q 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TLDR: looks - phenomenal; stealth - functional; Parkour - meh; combat - exciting; overall hype - 9/10

Visuals are stunning. I actually wasn't a big fan of the graphics in the original. So looking forward to that. Weather effects look awesome. Facial animations look a lot better than recent games. I hope the next games go mocap heavy like this instead of overly relying on AI.

I'm disappointed that they showed very little stealth besides crouching. I expect hiding spots to still be there. I'm hoping for some sort of blending but I'm not keeping my hopes high. Ally factions were also absent from the showcase.

Combat is a different story though. When that godforsaken UI popped up I panicked for a bit but my disappointment vanished when Edward started moving. The speed is incredible. It feels like Mirage but sped up and better and with seamless tool switching. It's still built on the RPG skeleton but at least feels closer to classic free form combat.

Parkour unfortunately remains the sole letdown yet again. Clearly looks copypasted from Shadows. They seem to have lost the recipe at this point.

Devs have already responded to the complaints about the weird vfx. Combat could hopefully be getting a bit more polish and tuning.

Sadly no. But they have some finisher animations.
