The next major patch for Assassin’s Creed: Unity is being worked on by Ubisoft, and they’ve revealed some of the ‘top issues’ they will be addressing, or at least tracking
They expect Patch 4 to ”rectify most of the remaining issues” for players on PC as well as console. A major bug right now are crashes after loading a save with ‘most instances eliminated’.
”Work continues on Patch 4, which should bring improvements to the framerate as well as additional fixes. We’re still testing some fixes in Patch 4, so we’ll have a more detailed preview next week,” posted Ubisoft on the Live Updates blog.
They intend to reveal how Season Pass owners can redeem their free gift ”in greater detail very soon.”
Ubisoft’s ‘top issues’ tracking list:
● Game crashes after loading your save: We’re devoting a lot of attention to this one and we have a workaround (try taking your system offline and reload your save, you should be able to play offline). Most instances of this crash will be eliminated in Patch 4, but if you do still encounter this issue after the Patch is applied please file a Customer Support ticket to help us identify what your issue is so we can create a fix for it.
● Error CE-34878-0: Similar to the crash mentioned above, the game freezes or crashes after loading your save. This particular error message is exclusive to PS4. This issue should be resolved in Patch 4.
● Initiates legacy recognition issues: Many of these issues have been resolved, but we’ve noted that it could still take several days for all of your progress from past games to be fully updated. If after five days you still don’t see your progress accurately reflected on the site, please file a ticket with Customer Support so we can more closely examine this issue.
● Companion App issues: We’ve just released a new patch for the Companion App, so be sure to update to release 1.04 if you have not already. This patch addresses the following issues:
Restoration of lost Premiums
Fixed synchronization issues for first-time users and at login
Fixed the “no assassin” issue in the tutorial
Fixed missions with 100% odds of success that could fail
Fixed an issue with lost progress – simply resync with the HD game and load your save, this will synchronize your online progression data.
