Did Ubisoft ever change their stupid lovely uplay to allow you to change your display name in multiplayer? That alone is the deciding factor in if I want to buy it for PC or PS4.

I was playing last night and had an awesome moment where three breaching charges went off nearly at the same time, and then everything erupted in gunfire.

This might be the first $60 game I've bought since... gently caress, I can't even remember.

I breaching charged, killed a dude with it and then hurled an Ash launched breaching charge through the window into the closet on Mansion killing a second dude. I shed a tear of joy before bandit put a 12 gauge into my face.

You have to do it through the Uplay website, but yes, you can now.

The moment I had the realization to save Ash's grenades for internal work my kill count with them became a little stupid.

Yeah, just go to the uplay website, open your account page, and click the little gear in the top right, then click "Change your username".

Lemme blow your mind twelve ways to Sunday; they also have a small rear explosion radius that, while not usually fatal, will down someone if they're fetched up against it. It still does this if you bury it in a reinforced panel.

Example, Master Bedroom on the mansion level. Idiots love to hide in that loving closet. The closet is a death trap when you bring ash, FREE KILLS. I got a buy one get 2 free deal in there once. Fire the ash grenade charge into the wall, boom, death.

So that would be midnight for the land of the free.

My cpu maxes out when I'm ingame, but according to one of you who I played with in the beta that may have been from some core limiting thing going on? How do I unlock that for siege?

Damnit Schnugaf. As I read your post I thought "so, it's out now?" as I had no idea there was a different announced release time. But yeah, it's out in under 7 hours.

So tempted to get this game for PC, but drat, does it look ugly on Medium settings. It's weird, because I definitely make the recommended specs, but anything above the default Medium preset makes everything drop to 20-30 frames. :smith:

While waiting for the game to be released, I decided to just make a short montage of some of my matches in Beta.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMQngFpXosU

I'm probably gonna make a couple of these in the future as the game just seems to work really well with classical music.
My only regret now from the beta is not having shadowplay on at all times and missing a couple of good plays and breaches.

Looking forward to play this with you guys later!
