Well, not literally, but I am frustrated we could not have dated Kassandra, even as one-night stand. I think there should have been like this: if we declined to romance Kassandra, her final scene would have been as intended, but if we had opted to romance her, there would have been an extra scene with Eivor and Kassandra going to an isolated place, having some extra dialogue, getting laid... then Eivor would have woken up alone with a letter from Kassandra apologizing for not saying goodbye for thanking her/him for their time together and some. But I can only imagine...
Anyway, I am very thankful for bringing back Kassandra and her VA Melissanthi Mahut. Please feel free to bring her back as many times as you want!
I found out that once we post something there is only 10 minutes to edit it. I think this restriction is wrong and should be removed. For example, what if I wrote misinformation or/and misspelling and wanted to correct it? I shouldn't have to create a reply to my own post to "correct" these.
I think it is fair to let us to edit our posts anytime we want, but displaying when the edition was made, highlighting the latest time of edition and if one wants, to click at it to check the history of timestamps of editions.
Dear Ubisoft,
I watched the credits and Ashral Ismail's name was completely omitted on it, not even as "Special Thanks", as if he was never a part of Assassin's Creed Valhalla! Complete absurd.
It is a complete disrespect to the Legacy he left only only at Ubisoft but also to Assassin's Creed itself. Not only he was directly responsible for 2 of the best Assassin's Creed games ever (IV: Black Flag and Origins) he spent most of development time of Assassin's Creed Valhalla as its creative director (at least 2,5 years, a long time), before stepping down due to his infidelity accusations and later fired by you (part of desperate measures to keep your image, getting rid of any liabilities). Only 5 months between his departure and the official release of Assassins Creed Valhalla, too little time to justify his absence from the credits, regardless of his wrongdoings in his personal life you wronged him too. Not even Patrice Désilets was ignored like that (he was co-credited in Assassin's Creed Brotherhood as "Story by").
So please, Ubisoft, as you are severely patching Assassin's Creed Valhalla, make an opportunity ASAP to give Ashraf Ismail a proper reparation and put his name in the credits of "Assassin's Creed Valhalla".
I think Ghost Recon is the Ubisoft franchise that suffered the most worst inclusions from the company: overbloated open world, GAAS, Always Online, Gear Score, Battle Royale, and now subjected to be guinea pig of NFT (The Division would be a far more suitable franchise for this... thing). Why are we still here, just to suffer?
@vhaltyrr The petty lengths you go to justify your hatred towards Ashraf. Newsflash, "kid": someone can be a [censored] and do amazing things, and better than you. Besides, it is not us who should be hating him, but his wife and the actual people who were harmed by him, not a nobody like you. So your hatred is pointless. Ashraf Ismail, like or or not, did an amazing job for Assassin's Creed Valhalla most of its development time and deserves to be credited for this, period.
@lanague Launch version is the new Beta nowadays. How sad.
Nice too see to ongoing plaguing problem is happening to ther people too. For me this issue has been going on for at least 3 months or so. I tried to reach Ubisoft Support, with no avail, giving those generic tips to "update graphic drivers, update windows 10, verify game files, uninstall and reinstall" and such. This is so maddening that if not for this rerun of "Faye Lau Hunt" I would have uninstalled this game already for indefinite amount of time. Ubisoft people MUST fix these freezes, it is too frustrating to often restart the game.
I finally managed to end the rerun of Season 4: End of Watch where the iconic Faye Lau became the HVT after being done very dirty at the end of Warlords of the New York expansion. I have been avoiding the spoilery details until now but I already knew she was "killed" and overall people were very, very displeased with that. And now I can safely utterly agree with them! Disastrous decision to make Faye Lau a traitor, which held no good pay-off at all!
This betrayal from Faye Lau made no sense whatsoever in the first place, The Division was never shown to be "corrupt", these Black Tusk faction showed no better at all than The Division, on the contrary they just want to destroy The Division to run United States on the behalf on their still-mysterious benefactors, not to mention Black Tusk offered no help at all (no effort spent to help the people, only to conquer territories) to hunt and kill Aaron Keener (one of the alleged reasons Faye went rogue), which all merit is on The Division. I understand Faye was upset on The Division slow progress to rebuild the country and she was devastated for her sister's murder, but you should have at least made her go rogue to form her own faction or something. And there is the forced twist to make her kill President Ellis at his cabin at White Oak for the sake of shock value apparently since she had no particular reason for that, then instead of making us thank her (after all, Ellis was a TRAITOR thus deserved to die!), Kelso absurdly makes us KILL her and I did not want to do that! During our final battle Faye would taunt me that I "only followed orders" but the game gave me no choice and I am mad! I was really hoping she would at least be revealed to be a double agent, infiltrated at Black tusk to destroy it from within and help us with that, but not even this clever thing was used here. So I am forced to be mourn her death and I hate that.
I am probably missing bits of story which would excuse her motivations to act so erratically (there are 2 audio logs missing for me) but the main narrative utterly failed to convince me Faye Lau being a traitor and getting killed were sensible things to do with her.
After this long rant, I finally BEG you to bring Faye Lau back to Life, yes! Make her to have faked her death (using those reviving gadgets to recover her wounds) to be able to escape The Division wrath to later return as an informant to destroy Black tusk once and for all and then reinstated to The Division or at least disavowed but free to be her own agent. She could even become a playable character, at least at New York location. Especially because she was not buried not had her death officially confirmed by The Division administration. Faye Lau does not deserve to be wasted in such a pitiful way.
Meanwhile,
REST IN PEACE, Faye Lau!
I am a recent player of Assassin's creed Valhalla and I started doing the River Raids this weekend. They are a good challenge in spite of its handicaps (No Horse, no Crow, no save until dying [which sucks a lot if the game crashes, as it happened to me a few times] or leaving the level) but I think, since there will be a "Year 2" for Assassin's Creed Valhalla, we could have the option to have Co-op with other players during the River Raids while also giving new locations for more challenging River Raids (stronger enemies in gigantic amount, plenty of high-quality items, unique rewards). Jomsvikings are so goddamn useless until level 3 being a burden to me as I felt forced to babysit them (meaning: killing all enemies by myself) to keep them alive.
Naturally the collected have to be saved in case the host(s) leave the match.
I made over a year ago a post complaining about the unfair omission of Ashraf Ismail from the Credits of Assassins Creed Valhalla (I explained everything about it here: https://discussions.ubisoft.com/topic/85271/ashraf-ismail-should-have-been-credited?lang=en-US). 1 year later, several updates later, now with my own copy of Assasin's Creed Valhalla I went to check the Credits and his name is STILL absent from the credits, what the hell, Ubisoft!? This no longer makes any sense whatsoever. The game is out, marketing is over, sales are too strong (https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2021-10-28-assassins-creed-valhalla-already-second-most-profitable-title-in-ubisoft-history: (https://gamesindustry.biz/articles/2021-10-28-assassins-creed-valhalla-already-second-most-profitable-title-in-ubisoft-history)) and there will be no more damage coming from his past association with you and even if it does it will not matter.
I tell you to just include on Credits:
"Creative Director
Ashraf Ismail" either on the very top of the credits, the most deserved spot, or at the bottom of "Ubisoft Montreal" section. Alternatively you could include Ashraf Ismail name on "Special Thanks" section. It will not hurt a bit. Assassin's Creed Valhalla has been a tremendous commercial success to you, you have profitted more than you expected and with "Year 2" you shall seel even more units of Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Those whiners will never buy your game anyway or already did and lost their purpose (sure they can always buy microtransations and future expansions but they are not worth pleasing); ignore them and especially the Press.
Please make this historical reparation happen, Ubisoft!
And I wish Ashraf Ismail is in a better place with his Life.
P.S.:Moderators, I suggest you to lock this topic if you feel it is the most convenient thing to do.
I am not against Ability boxes but I think they could be reworked in the sense of respawn randomly and occasionally (every 3 minutes or so) in the map, via airdrops on areas with opening to the sky; this would attract nearby enemies, making more challenging to get them. It is really annoying when Operators like Smoke, Nomad, Tachanka or Doc, etc. being unable to use their Ability because there isn't any ability box available while others can have their abilities recharged automatically.
Another possibility, as previous posts said, is to make everybody has automatic ability recharge (though it doesn't "realistically" make much sense, how Tachanka would "regenerate" a mounted LMG with ammo or Smoke his gas grenades?) varying with each Operator, but it could be more balanced for gameplay...
@airashi-tenshi While I agree there much more ammo and Gadgets on Solo, this is still an issue. It wouldn't hurt at all to add this option to self-remove the Spores especially if you have to stay still and hold a button for a few seconds. And it would be a tough choice to do that if there are enemies close by.
@inmy6lory It is premature to claim for free-to-play, especially considering Rainbow Six Extraction was released to Xbox Game Pass and Ubisoft+ on launch... but Rainbow Six Siege players unfortunately mostly snobbed Rainbow Six Extraction. The biggest problem for me is Ubisoft is not investing enough to update Rainbow Six Extraction with new content (MAPS, Operators, enemies, modes, REWARDS...)! And this is a huge issue since once you make all Operators reach level 10, complete all Studies and reach Milestone level 31 there not much left to do on Rainbow Six Extraction, except Protocol Maelstrom, limited Events and reaching Prestige 10, but these are appealing just for the most dedicated players.
I disagree with some of the answers here. While it IS possible to remove spores solo with self-inflicted explosives, it is really annoying to WASTE ammo from Gadgets or Ability to do so, WHEN either is available. Not to mention in a team the teammates may be far away to help you or just ignore you (especially with randoms).
So yeah, there really should be option to remove spores yourself. The Original Poster suggestion is very good indeed.
I was playing solo then I felt the need to do "number 1" and I pressed the supposed "Pause" Button but the game didn't pause at all! Fortunately I was at the antechamber but I had to be very quick in relieving myself and that was annoying.
So, as I said in the title, please update Rainbow Six Extraction to let me PAUSE the game while playing SOLO. This kind of inconvenience should not happen again.
As much as I enjoy Rainbow Six Extraction I find very baffling that, while having Solo incursion, not being allowed to play it Offline. Haven't you learned nothing from Ghost Recon Breakpoint??! Anyway, offline progression should be saved offline to be synchronized with the servers when the game goes online, simple as that.
Please make this update happen ASAP.
It should be common practice to design all games with this feature from day one. Those who only play single player can opt-out of always online. In case you need to do some DRM just ask players to open the connection for checks to take place
It USED to be like this not too long ago, even Ubisoft USED to do this, but UNlearned it.
I was playing Nightmare Fog Event, and I cannot complete at all the Study "Sane in the Brain" ("In Nightmare Fog, destroy a Toxic Tree and extract without your Neurotoxin Level reaching a critical state 3 times.") as it is so [censored] as it was conceived. I managed to complete the other 4 Studies, even the annoying "Tree Anihilation", which I was too lucky to find a team who knew what they were doing.
For starters the description is inaccurate: the "critical state" is NOT 100% but after 65% of Exposure, and worse, in NO moment the player is allowed to reach past 65% of exposure or the Study is failed already.
I am aware the Study is doable, as other players except it depends way too much on the GOOD Teamwork, and for matchmaking, especially with Randoms, this is practically impossible. Relying on randoms is difficult enough to complete the Event but "Sane in the Brain" is practically a "speedrun", in the sense of destroying the Toxic Tree very fast. The infection rate is too fast was well, which makes the referred Study extra harder to complete. And I couldn't even find videos of players completing the challenge so I am in the dark about a good strategy to complete "Sane in the Brain".
This is a HUGE SHAME on you, Ubisoft team, who failed to conceive this Study in a fairly challenging way, making it too punishing to everyone who has to rely on randoms to even begin the Event. I would tell you to at least LOWER the infection rate by half., but the event is at end in 2 days and I do not know if "Nightmare Fog" will ever return; if you do not reduce the infection rate, or revamp or nerf the Study for something simpler and accurate, please never bother to bring "Nightmare Fog" back. Although I am not too upset for the Reward lost (just the cosmetic "Noxedimus Headgear", nice but a reskin of another cosmetic) I am very upset for wasting time in such a ridiculous challenge as "Sane in the Brain".
STILL with this Vulkan crap?? My goodness this game is hopeless in some ways...
What I did and worked for me was to lower "Terrain Quality" to High, then the game ran fine all the time. It should be the same after the latest update.
