Did the initiates stuff just get fixed? A patch got rolled out for synch stuff on the mobile app and i noticed that my initiates level suddenly shot up to 8 because it finally picked up that i've finished all of the other games except 4.

Seems like it just comes and goes at random. My profile was working fine a couple of weeks ago, but now it's completely empty, no numbers anywhere and all the feeds are blank.

What do you actually get from the nomad chests? I'm not sure I can be bothered with the mobile app crap unless you get something decent.

Mostly poo poo. Some unlock weapons. A few unlock terribly easy missions.

The mobile app sucks a lot of battery but the game itself requires almost no active time. It's really not a big deal.

The major draw would be unlocking Altair's outfit. There's some mid-tier equipment.

It also unlocks some rift artifacts as well.

Am I reading it right in the app? Do those missions disappear after 24 hours if you don't do them, because your agent does?

I know they're very simple ones but it's very strange to have a mission disappear on you.

Yep they get completed for you, and chests get collected. It's ok if you can't play the actual game for a bit so all your missions aren't tied up - but having dudes not get tied up for 24h would have been even better!

Either play the game and sync the app and get your guy back immediately or wait 24 hours.

Nothing disappears permanently unless you guy dies on the mission because you don't heal beforehand.

Also unlock social clubs and you will have enough points to do anything in the app

Applied for Goon_Ass in Unity, nobody seems to accept my application though. Anyone who is still playing this want to do some Unity co-op on PC? Add me on uplay, CyborgLenin1917. I promise I wont be terrible and attract all the guards.

I've never sent out a mission at less than 100% and still had at least 2 dudes randomly die from full health.

Until the update yesterday there was a bug where it could fail at 100%.

I don't know it that fixes assassins dying though. You still succeed if at least one survives.

loving James Kidd, stop acting like you're not a woman pretending to be a dude. Like 3 times already she's been like "Oh, come here, I've got a secret to show you," and I'm like, "Oh, we're finally ending this stupid charade, great," but then nooooooo look at this map or this weird stone or something. You are clearly a woman. Your voice actor is for sure a woman. Let's just get it out in the open.

Sometimes, in a city this dirty, you need a real hero.
The companion app has permanently handicapped me because one of my assassins's is allegedly "away" doing a non existant thing. He's got the little clock symbol thing on his icon but no timer. He's just there, taking up an extra slot. :/

Also the open combat in unity sucks and just highlights how terrible the gameplay is as soon as guns come into it. Trigger an alert and get swarmed by guards? Might as well just give up because they'll not only stunlock you to death but blast you with a hail of gunfire from off the sides of the screen where you can't even see them.

Just drop a smoke bomb and run. I actually like whittling at a mass of soldiers and disappearing when cornered, like a horror movie monster.

Just like real life, I'd argue.

So I opened a ticket about my missing Edward Kenway outfit, and used the opportunity to ask about the free game offer.

quote:

Thank you for answering those questions for me.

I have sent the gathered information to the development team as promised so they can use that information to help them find a solution.

In the meantime, keep checking back for the outfit as it should return once the issue is resolve.

As for the Unity Season Pass free game offer, we only received information saying that the company is offering this to the Season Pass holders but they did not provide any details about how the program will operate or when it will begin. It seems they want to make sure everyone is aware of the offer before starting the logistics.

So basically it's loving nothing

Though I'd think that anybody who cares about the offer already have long known about it.

I'm like 80% through Unity. It seems like the Assassin Council is about as useless as the panel is Mass Effect.

Seriously, do they help you with anything in the entire game? I miss being able to summon bros to help.
