pedrocasilva Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Ubi tries to bail out: http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/9251049315/m/4081042366/p/25 Ubisoft has teams devoted to making Wii titles of a wide variety, both party games such as the Raving Rabbids series as well as more traditional titles such as past Driver (PORT), Red Steel (RUSHJOB) and Prince of Persia (QUICK AND DIRTY PORT) games that still take advantage of the unique control system (no kidding, with ports?). If you feel any of these titles are not up to scratch then these forums are absolutely the place to pass that feedback on, ideally in the specific game forum. (we just did, it's up to you to take it seriously or choose to ignore it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcj metroid Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Boggles the mind why they even care about what we think when we're bashing them.. I mean they are the ones ignoring us in the first place why bother listening to us now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean they are the ones ignoring us in the first place why bother listening to us now?Damage control, and who says they want to listen? they just want to make it so it branches in a lot of threads, and that's if we want; so they can lock them selectively. Like they did with Prince of Persia Wii one as soon as it was getting comments against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcj metroid Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 and that was a fairly bad screenshot of 1080 avalance as well.My god ubisoft ha. IM pretty sure even the skiing game from wii fit has better graphics . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(for a more authentic experience:)) Ubisoft must be going out of there way to make the graphics look this bad.... they..must...be... I know!I had the same feeling looking at 1080 avalanche; I mean how many Wii games are actually even at that standard, not all that many. I honestly cannot comprehend why this is happening, yes in cases it's a lack of effort, a cheap cash in here and there, but you would honestly think the developers should have some self respect. Surely they want their games to stand out and impress, surely they want to keep driving the industry forward. A couple of years on, the gamecube should not be looking like the superior console, it should be the entry level for Wii games, we've got a console here that's more powerful than the Xbox! I really just don't get it and its infuriating as a Wii owner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tellyn Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 The Ubisoft thread got locked because the conversation wasn't constructive. Seemed pretty constructive to me: people tell Ubisoft where they are going wrong, Ubisoft respond with Red Steel, a PoP repackaged port and Driver, then lock the thread...

Retro_Link Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Some of the latest comparisons in that thread were great pointers, like Lost Winds being a £10 game and being better visually and gameplay wise than pretty much anything Ubisoft has to offer, and at full price to!

Seemed pretty constructive to me: people tell Ubisoft where they are going wrong, Ubisoft respond with Red Steel, a PoP repackaged port and Driver, then lock the thread...That's just their own damage control, "oh it's not constructive" just because everyone is against them, by locking it they have the last saying, and therefore can label people and, supposedly come on top. Crap customer service. So did you get the interview Tellyn? I definitely want to see some questions addressed if only for the laughs and lack of business sense.

david.dakota Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 1080 N64 1080 GC Ubisofts utter crap! Their effort really is cringe worthy!

D_prOdigy Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Oh I wasn't paying any attention to that thread. It wasn't really Ubisoft responding, it was just some Admin kid being all over-defensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crap customer service. So did you get the interview Tellyn? I definitely want to see some questions addressed if only for the laughs and lack of business sense. Indeed. Tell me, are you lostinblue over at Ubiforums and GoNintendo? You really are on a warpath! I haven't got a response yet, apart from Raide's initial confirmation that he'd submitted my query to PR. But other good news, I have an interview with WayForward's Matt Bozon on Contra 4 and Shantae. so since tha thread is locked is it all over or are we just getting started with this? The battle for Ubisoft's forum is over. The battle for good quality Wii games is about to begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emasher Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 I got an auto reply from one of the emails on the too mail list for the email petition mentioned earlier in the thread. Anyway. looks like ubi are trying a new art style with the snow boarding game but have failed miserably. Although, you should also not that Wii screens almost always look like crap. From 3rd parties anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrocasilva Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 so since tha thread is locked is it all over or are we just getting started with this?Seems like in vengeance and because the "this isn't the right area" (but still they left the thread reach 25 pages and it wouldn't fit elsewhere)... there's not like 20 Wii against Ubisoft threads in that section. Far from over, but more subdued now. What Ubi has to realize is that what gone on in their forums is nothing compared to what is going on in pretty much every Wii/Nintendo and even multiplatform forums of homogeneous posters (obviously not when the victims of the bigger prejudice are minorities) but it's big... by big I mean... BIIIIG. They have to address it head on ASAP in order to do damage control, not viral marketing crap and closing threads. And of course they have to deliver in a big way now, we know the bunch of crap they've been pulling on us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nekunando Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 E3 can't some soon enough, really.. because I'm excited by nothing at the minute ..and how can you possibly get excited by all this rubbish! After Super Smash Bros Brawl, it's hard to see where my next game is coming from.. though, having said that, I have loads to get through anyway on SNES, N64, GBA, DS, Gamecube, Dreamcast, PS1 and Wii.. but recently I have been starting to worry about the long term of the Wii..

david.dakota Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 now capcom are doing it. Gotta disagree with this one. OK, so its clearly not the next epic, but Capcom have invested in the development team, creating a new IP and made it exclusive to Wii. It wouldv'e proved quite easy to up the resolution, paint it brown and slip it in their PS360 line up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emasher Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 now capcom are doing it. Actually, that looks like it could be good. Just because it has cartoony graphics doesn't make it bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
