@russellsparrow My WoW point would be more relevant if you hadn’t missed my point entirely. What does a patch require? Some effort, maybe? Some work on their part? And who knows how much of both of those things would be required on the part of the dev team? Like I said, if it were something simple, I’m sure they would have already done it. Since they haven’t done it, I have to assume it’s a bit more complex.

So, maybe instead of spending time, effort, and resources in order to improve upon a project that’s no longer current, they’re pooling those things into a project that is. If they were still working on AC2, then it might be worth the effort, but since they’re not,it’snot.

And I’d wager my money on the majority of people bent out of shape about the game not being replayable already own copies. I own a copy. I’m not going to sell it just because some of the lack of the features annoy me. And even if I did, it doesn’t affect Ubisoft’s profit margin. And if they did release a patch or an updated version, I wouldn’t pay for a new copy of the game. So really, what benefit would they get for releasing such a thing?

On the other hand, I know a whole lot of people who maybe wouldn’t buy the third game if some of the key features were lacking or were chunky because a few people spent a few days working on something only a handful of people complain about.

So I’m with Ubisoft for not caring about this issue. And I hope they continue to not care, and instead continue to work on future products. I appreciate their time management.

I know it would require effort on Ubi’s behalf and that it’s unlikely of happening but it’s not impossible and that”s good enough for me to try. It’s likely that soon, when the major production on AC3 comes to an end and there are just DLC and multiplayer maintenance working on it, there will be an opportunity for something like this to happen and it would not affect the final product of AC3.

I didn’t say people would sell the copy because it lacks replayability or that this would have any effect on Ubi’s profit. It would just be something for the fans who still play AC2 (I know there probably aren’t that many of us) so that they could enjoy it all the more. I wouldn’t expect that it would be a patch you have to pay for (patches rarely are).

I woud never dream of writing an angry rage email. That’s no way to get things done, hence the petition at the beginning of this thread with this message:

“AC2 is a brilliant game with numerous enjoyable missions, however if you want to play a particular one you have to play through the entire game to reach it. This discourages long-term playing of the game. Certain small memories in the game are replayable so we know that it’s possible. It would be greatly appreciated if Ubisoft could apply this to other memories aswell.”

@genericwit
I’m guessing your a nurse XD

@gatho I have a year left of nursing school, so I spend about 3 hours a night sleeping, 6 hours a day in class, 6 hours a day in class, and 6 hours a day studying, and the rest of the time panicking while trying to do things like eat and shower and drive. When I have clinicals, I spend about 3 hours sleeping, 3 hours reviewing my plan of care, 14 hours in a hospital (with pre and post conference), 4 hours trying to finish up odds and ends, and 8 hours trying to relax. Wait a second… Somehow don’t have time for that last number. Ahaha. :D I understand rage, my friend.

@gathoo I commend you for that. You must either be incredibly intelligent or just not as anal/thorough as most people who go into skilled professions are. My friends in law school spend every waking moment studying or working. I just had a friend take the bar a week or two ago, and.. he spent just about every waking moment studying for it during the summer. Usually, in my experience, med students, law students, and nursing students go for the overkill and would rather be over-prepared than under. Not that I’m implying you’re under-prepared or anything. You might be Goldilocks. Heh.
