I said on another topic, they grabbed the cash to appease the shareholders, releasing the game unfinished so as not to directly compete with Cyberpunk. They could have delayed, they could have done better. Someone in the hierarchy decided not to. Same with the new patch. Rushed, broken, however this time they were trying to appease customers they have already taken money from.

It's just failure after failure. Losing their customers trust.

Refund your skill points. That will de-rate your characters power in various aspects. Sounds like that could be an easy fix for you.

When i go fishing and hook a fish, the animations stop. The fish appears dead, laying on it's side. Just looks like it's being dragged around in the water. Sometimes the fish runs and pulls away, but even then it's on it's side and just dragging. Then when it says i caught a fish, say brown trout (big) Eivor holds out empty hands for a second or 2.

Seems like this part of the game is not finished. I was really excited when i found out i could go fishing, then when i did, it was just extremely poor and disappointing.

It's a shame. Consumers should be priority. Make a good game, it sells well, future titles sell more copies. By default, shareholders are happier because better product = more sales = more revenue. I'll bet Bethesda is still licking it's wounds after Fallout 76. Hopefully this is just as costly for Ubisoft and they can learn a valuable lesson.

@chevy_man2010

Feels like the Fallout 76 debacle all over again. Too many game breaking bugs. Scores of minor bugs. Hundreds of frustrations. It just doesn't seem to work. What i tried to play on Ps4 is barely up to par for an open test version. Definitely not AU$170 worth of finished product. Ubisoft haven't been delivering on their games. Watchdogs Legion wasn't much better.

@souldrinkerlp
In any case, the payment was for a WORKING amd PLAYABLE game. Minor bugs are expected. I've restarted twice because the game just broke, wouldn't let me progress, manual saves corrupted, auto saves all put me back in the same situation. That's not ok. Releasing an untested beta version for full finished product price is not ok. It seems only a few very lucky people are having playthroughs without massive bugs or glitches.

I agree. This forum style is just bad.

I was wondering why i couldn't sell weapons and gear. But it is becoming more apparent that I won't need to as there just isn't that much to collect.

Thankyou to whomever went and removed all the bug reports from the feedback forum. Well done, and thankyou.

@max18400
I hope you are right.
However, in fairness, people are paid to test these games. Someone was paid to find bugs, multiple people were. Releasing a product in this state, while charging full price, is just not ok. Destroying the game with the first major post release patch, and maintaining radio silence about it, is a grubby act. Taking money from people, for a product they know to be very broken, because they had to beat another game to release, or they wouldn't get many sales in comparison is low.

Hopefully they make recompense for this. But doubtful. They'll put the game on sale later and give the people coming in later something decent. Loyalists, and other who pre-order, will be repeatedly shafted. It's Ubisoft's new modus operandi.

@chrigger

That's right. Skill point are handed out like candy so that if you choose to be overpowered, you can be. However if you don't want to be, just don't allocate them. It caters to both types, and even in the middle. It's your choice how many points you allocate, and how powerful your character becomes.

And this game has so many other issues that actually need the devs to resolve, that choosing to be overpowered (with such a simple solution) should indefinitely be put on the back burner. Progression blocks, saves being deleted, and the myriad of other huge bugs deserve immediate attention.

Scroll through posts in the forums. Read one. Go out of it. Resets back to top of list. I scrolled down and had to load more posts several times. Found one relating to an issue i am having. Looked at it. Wemt back to continue. Back to the top. Why can't i contunue scrolling from where i left? Add different pages or something. This is ridiculous. The division forum has pages, meaning it doesn't take an age to get back to where i was in the list. Surely this can be brought back to this forum

The forum feedback is 99.9% bug and issues reports. Moderators should be moving posts, or better yet make the forum more user friendly, as it seems a lot of people can't find the right section to post in

Most of the subjects on "forum feedback" are about game bugs and issues. This design just doesn't work. And why is there a link to view replies that just causes the messages to repeat?

But then you'd know what you're going to be able to spec into, and you could plan it out. Why would you I want to be able to do that over being surprised by what pops?
At least you can refund points and change direction easily.



I think I'll have to add that this is facetious before someone gets upset

I agree. I'd like to know where I'm going and what is in the higher tree branches so i know what i want to aim for.

@netspook
I've always been really lucky with bugs as well. Only 2 games I've played have had massive bug issues. Fallout 76 and Valhalla.

Feels like I pre-ordered the final AAA release and got the beta test instead. I've had endless load screens, had to restart the game twice and now I'm over 20 hours into attempt 3 and not restarting everything again. It's just bad form to release the game without testing it. I know 2020 has been hard on everyone, worldwide, but these guys haven't even tried.

I have been trying to get used to the new forum. It no longer seems as bad as the first few days. But scrolling down the feeds, i quite often have to close the forum window, open it, log in again, tuen maybe i can scroll past the first set of feeds. Can you look in to this? Or maybe add a button to force it to load more threads? On mobile, using good wifi, if that makes a difference

You dont kill innocents. Only guards/militia/military types. You don't slaughter monks amd villages.

Although there is a lot of fire involved.

@zepo94
It sucks. I've restarted twice already, currently about 30 hours into the third attempt. Haven't got as far as you yet. But still had the game break completely a few times. Game disk is back in the case until i see a patch download (Ps4). Just not worth the frustration currently. If it's not sorted soon I'll go through other avenues for a refund.

Sorry this is happening to you. It's not acceptable from a Triple A title.

@uv3bellegar

If you go into your "my feed" section, or into your user profile, you can see what you have commented on and go back to the post from there. Would save you from searching through everything else to find it.

@fred_p
It's called Valhalla. You knew it was about vikings. How could you not know it involves raiding and killing? It's part of the Assassin's Creed series. Which is about an order of people who assassinate targets. If the game is not for you, then that's fine, not everyone is ok with that stuff. I've been playing Farming Simulator for a while, you don't kill anyone in that.
