Hello,
I'm expecting the issues to be addressed, because I like the game, yet it's unplayable since the recent Title Update 1.2.0.
issue no. 1: I was usually launching
Valhalla via the
Valve client - due to the fact my
Steam controller isn't recognised by the game if it's launched via
Ubisoft Connect - but it's crashing to desktop. The crash reports were sent afterwards, obviously. Thus, I used the original game's client, and the game started normally. Yet,
"Input Mode" is greyed-out and doesn't let me switch between
"Hybrid" and
"Controller", or
"Keyboard and Mouse". I noticed, on the upper right corner of the overlay, the controller is detected, but in the
"Options" menu there's no such thing. I tested similar titles (i.e.
Odyssey,
Origins, etc.), and the controller was working just fine, actually. So, my guess is, there's an application conflict between
Steam and
Ubisoft Connect. issue no. 2: I redeemed the
Godly Reward for free - only to get
Altair's outfit - and the
Modraniht armor set, which I got at the
Yule Festival and upgraded to
Mythical (Gold), was, strangely, downgraded to
Superior (Bronze). I spent hours grinding enough of scarce materials (leather, iron ore and titanium) and ingots (carbon, nickel and tungsten) only to redo it. Also, if i continue my progress, the
Starter Pack I bought keeps resetting as new in Inventory, and the game randomly freezes in
Ravensthorpe. I suppose the patch, although it fixed a few old glitches, it caused new ones too.
The game is really enjoyable storywise, but the problematic technical aspects and the controversial marketplace transactions provide a negative experience to the Assassin's Creed series fans.
Cheers,
Akis
