Letter box for all, Yay :cry:

I hope Racer_S or DopeFish can help us out here, should be since the engine is the same and AC1 was sorted by Racer_S

Oh no, bad news :cry: , hope Racer_S or dopefish can help.

As if i needed another reason to not buy this title...

Pilarboxing is bad, but I prefer it to Vert- Any day.

I'd help, but I promised myself not to buy another Ubisoft product again with their DRM (and $60 price).

Works for me with my 16:9 screen, but sucks for you guys.

I think this is one of those games where they are intense about presenting it the way they want and you just have to deal with it, etc. etc..

Fair enough.

Well, at least the menus won't be super stretched. Glad I bought this for the 360 myself (and got a cool $10 off since it was a preorder :D), at least they don't try to pull this letterboxing crap there.

I was expecting this; not the DRM madness. I'll just pass until the price is as LOW as Ubi's policies toward PC gamers. :evil: Ah well, I really have to reinstall AC1 for another playthrough anyway...

Glad to see this as a pre-release announcement on PCGH, though. Comparison screenshots outside of the WSGF, can you believe it ? :lol: Go guys !

I expect that the permanent internet connection will watch for any code-injection attacks on the game, thus breaking the possibility of a 3rd party fix for this.

[thales100]

Yep, i think ill wait for a fix (if possible) to buy this game. :x

Uh, almost every 360 game is letterboxed.

Maybe you were being sarcastic... so hard to tell!

Also I got this for $42 from amazon.com before they announced the $60 price... woo-hoo! Of course no release day shipping means I will be waiting a while :(

[CY:G]

Not going to bother with this, maybe in a few years when the price is super low, hopefully they will still have their servers up for authentication.

[thales100]

Uh, almost every 360 game is letterboxed.

Yep, and console versions look like sh*t anyway.

[Paradigm Shifter]

I can't decide whether to wait for AC2 PS3 to hit a tenner and buy it then, or whether to boycott Ubisoft completely for their stupid stunts...

[thales100]

lol couldnt resist and just bought this game :hide , i wanna play it , even if on one screen only. :doh

[scavvenjahh]

You, my friend, are weak. As a lawful TripleHeader, I'm now boycotting your Arma2 screenshot thread.

Oh noooooooooooooooooooo...........

[MobsterOO7]

Seriously, bad form man.

SHUNNNNNNNNNNNNN.

The more I read about this the less I am interested. I have cancelled my pre-order (muliti-mon and DRM fired NERD RAGE!) and will wait and see what happens... even though it costs me a 'lovely' AC2 pre-order T-shirt ;)
