I've seen that in plenty of games. Sometimes shit happens. I've seen one bug, and it was a piece of paper floating in the air.
You guys are way too critical. Meanwhile, I'm having a blast with the game.

The sad thing about this game is that glitches like this should rarely be seen by the user. Sure, every game has the occasional hiccup but a majority of users never experience an issue. With AC Unity, there are SO MANY issues happening to almost every player, on top of the fact that the frame rate is unacceptable. These issues were most definitely found during testing yet Ubisoft had to/was forced to put the game out anyways or simply didn't give a shit. It's embarrassing.

I have to admit those texture bugs are funny as hell. I wish my game would glitch like that

Glad I'm traveling this week and wasn't able to pick up my preorder yet. Best Buy can keep it. I could barely force my way through AC3 due to glitches and this looks 10x worse.

Traded in Borderlands today and will get Far Cry for around 25 bucks on Tuesday and then buy Rogue a little over a week later for 25 bucks on black friday. Till Microsoft makes the One a must sell and making games that give me a reason to give up the 360 I'll stick where I'm at.

Now that's funny.
I was playing a side mission earlier and the screen abruptly went to black. After a few seconds, the Xbone restarted. I tried running the game again, and it won't get past the please wait loading screen.
You guys jinxed my error free gaming session

So uh, how do you co-op in this game? I don't see any options in the menu. Do you just have to go to a gamercard and jump into a friends game or is a lobby thing or what?

Hilarious user-review on amazon:
Become a $60 Beta Assassin!
November 12, 2014
By Christian Stella "author"This review is from: Assassin's Creed Unity PlayStation 4 (Video Game)
AC Unity is true next-gen. In fact, it is SO next-gen that it isn't even finished yet! I like to be on the cutting edge and I appreciate that Ubisoft is making games that it is still making, even weeks after you've beaten them.
I also love the forced integration with an app as well as a website. How that works is that you sign in with your uplay account to experience so many error messages that last gen could never display on screen at one time.
The game itself (no spoilers) centers around Arno, an Assasin in search of locked chests that require a cell phone game with micro transactions to open. You level him up by "hacking" into your bank account to drain real money at 60 FPS. The rest of the game runs at a solid 12 FPS which is TWICE as cinematic as a movie... No small feat! Once you've completed "playing" a website on your computer, Arno is finally ready to fall through the ground and enter a white abyss... The core challenge of the game, these moments where you simply fall into the sky that accurately existed under 1700's Paris, are some of the most nail-biting moments in any game ever made... Will the game crash? Will you have to hard reset your console? Results are random, so it will always be a surprise!
Many people just won't "get" this evolution of Assassin's Creed and should spend their time opening up a history book instead. It is there they could read up on Paris' floating people and long battle with pop-in. Even today, many Parisians only exist after you've already walked past them. It is these small details that Ubisoft has nailed and they deserve applause with tons of random audio pops just as you'd hear in the game's cinematics.
After playing this gem, I've decided to fly to Montreal tomorrow to begin playing 2018's Assassin's Creed 9. Unity's only shortcoming was that it was a little TOO finished, so I am hoping the Ubisoft guys will let me plug my controller into a broken vending machine in their studio that simply eats dollars that I put into it without delivering.

Someone went ahead and wrote lyrics to this...
Tuesday morning no reviews in
It's all because of, some embargo
Ubisoft just wants your money
Microtransactions? How about no?
Unity is really glitchy
With a framerate, close to zero
NPC's don't follow physics
Teleporting, into walls, whoa
Arno, etes-vous OK?
So, Arno, etes-vous OK?
Etes-vous OK, Arno?

You can escape from Ubisoft
If you just get your game patched,
Then you just might redeem yourself, Arno
They butchered your revolution
Revolution, that's what you need
Ubi's stocks are going down
It's not your fault
Screw Ubisoft

I've been reading that, on the PS4, disconnecting the console & game from the internet, improves the frame-rate.

Yeah, a patch can do anything. If they optimize the game better, they can absolutely get better framerates out of it. I would expect that sort of thing to be a pretty major patch, though. Like... Dead Rising 3 big.

I don't see the hate for the micro transaction stuff. Every game does it in some way nowadays. If you don't like them, don't buy them. I don't.
As long as people keep paying for boosts and whatnot, they will continue to exist. The same goes with Justin Beiber.

There's a ton of stuff to buy, so who knows?
Beiber is in the game, too. But there's a bug that makes him actually sound like a talented musician.

That is an incorrect statement. And if you don't see why including them in a full-priced release is an alarming trend, then I don't know what to tell you.

micro transactions are weak. They cheapen the gameplay and what efforts those who won't partake in it. It heavily unbalances the gameplay at times. Especially if multiplayer is involved w/ buying able to buy "upgrades" in them.
