That'll make sure there are no issues when trying to boot it from steam.Īnother idea if it's too late for that, is to have uplay started up already (and again, make sure you have the game in the library in uplay), so that it doesn't need to launch and potentially cause a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ there. The way you can usually get around it is launching uplay seperately before launching the game for the first time, and entering in the cdkey that you can get from steam (product key or some such when you right click on the game in your library) into uplay. If you never played it due to its poor launch reception, you should jump in while it is still free.I don't have this game yet, but I see people are having the same problems they always have with ubisoft games.

The game was panned for being buggy at launch but several patches later, most of the major issues were ironed out, although it still isn't a perfectly stable game. As a result, Ubisoft needs to take the game's servers offline in order to increase capacity.Īssassin's Creed Unity came out back in late 2014 and was the first in the series to not release on Xbox 360 or PS3. It turns out, a lot of people wanted to get their hands on Unity, even all these years later. Earlier this week, in an effort to support the reconstruction of Notre Dame, Ubisoft announced that it would not only be donating 500,000 Euros to the cause, but would also make Assassin's Creed Unity free for one week.
