Ubisoft is known to produce some pretty impressive games, but the developer is also becoming notorious for technically buggy and troublesome\u00a0releases\u00a0– a reputation they’re aware of and trying to shake.<\/p>\n
In a recent interview, Ubisoft CEO\u00a0Yves Guillemot said that the company has learnt a lot from the Watch Dogs<\/em> graphics debacle<\/a>\u00a0and Assassin’s Creed Unity’s<\/em> performance issue saga<\/a>, and that the company now\u00a0only showcases\u00a0gameplay footage at expos (like E3 2015) playable on target machines, i.e., systems they’re optimising the game to actually run on.<\/p>\n \u201cWith E3 2015 we said, OK, let\u2019s make sure the games are playable, that they\u2019re running on the target machines,<\/em>” Guillemot said.<\/p>\n “When we show something, we ask the team, make sure it\u2019s playable, make sure gamers can immediately see exactly what it is. That\u2019s what we learned from the Watch Dogs experience \u2013 if it can\u2019t be played on the target machine, it can be a risk.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n Guillemot also addressed the question of why Watch Dogs<\/em> turned out the way it did, and why it was delayed.<\/p>\n “It\u2019s a real challenge to create those types of games,<\/em>\u201d he said. \u201cWhen they come out, especially the first iterations, they are not perfect on everything. We think we launched a good quality game for a first step in a new brand with a new technology. It\u2019s just so complex \u2013 seamless multiplayer, connectivity with mobile and tablets, so many things \u2013 it was maybe a bit too much for a first iteration.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n Games you can play this week \u2013 screaming engines and wormy chaos<\/a><\/p>\n How horror games give us the fright we\u2019re looking for<\/a><\/p>\n A Gamer\u2019s guide to Board Games \u2013 Part 1: Strategy<\/a><\/p>\nSource:\u00a0The Guardian<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n
