    Didn't see a thread started for this game so thought I would start one .
    Anyone here playing.
    I really enjoyed assasins creed black flag. So much so that I ordered unity as soon as it came out but couldn't really get into it especially with all the sli issues and other problems so I never even played it.
    But syndicate seams to be ok to me so far .
    What about you guys that are playing it . What are your thoughts.
    I know sli performance is about the same as single card right now.
    But supposedly they are working on it. I know that means probably a fix 6 months from now lol.

    I have it (as well as Wingnut). It's an OK game, nothing special, but can be enjoyable at times.

    I've tried quit a few different graphic options combonations. I have everything as high as it will go except ambient occlusion off and ant-aliasing to fxaa and seams to run fair enough. 980m sli . Between 60 and 44 fps. Never below 44. I know 2 980m's should be able to push well over 60 fps with everything maxed . But at least it's playable for now.

    Yea it's a good game, I have enjoyed most of the games in the series with the exception of AC 3, which I just couldn't get that into for some reason.

    I also have it, but I feel performance is weird. I am using Very high details in general but my FPS can range from 40fps to 90 depending on what's going on. Too much of a delta for my taste. The game looks good but so far seems way to easy. I haven't bothered being assasinlike and only mash a couple of buttons and I have passed the first chapters without sweating, and I think I haven't even died.

    You would think after remaking the same game over and over they would have figured it out by now.
    Lol.
    The next assassin's creed game is probably going to be called assassin's creed remix.

    The genius' revamp the whole game each f* iteration.

    Like can you bloody stick to a concept without changing EVERY BLOODY THING. I just don't understand it.

    Almost all games are going borderline "so good you can't even understand if it's the same game or goat simulator".

    The menu is changed, the animations are changed, the engine is changed, the previous history is changed, all characters changed or revamped or redesigned.



    I do not understand - why - the hell - you don't just keep one engine and OPTIMIZE THE LIVING HELL OUT OF IT.

    /rage over sorry guys
