tbqh I think a hostile takeover of Ubisoft would be a net positive. They're already a terrible company who rarely puts out a game worth putting up with all the bugs and mucrotransactions for, so maybe a management shakeup is a good thing?

Ubivendi would be even worse. So no, it would not be a good thing.
Vivendi should stay out of the gaming industry in general, it's better this way.
Juan Smith
I hope they get bought up and Vivendi puts them on mobile completely. That's how much I hate their regular games.

Just make sure the Rayman team get transferred somewhere nice.

Gameloft got worse with Vivendi.
I feel like Gameloft actually pushed graphics on mobile before that takeover.
Charles Jackson
At least current Ubi uses profits from their soulless blockbusters to fund some smaller more honorable games.
Nathan Garcia
>supporting Bolloré in any situation, ever.
No, just no.
David Lee
No. Ubisoft may be shit but at least their president gives a shit about games and they actually try something new once in a while. I used to work there and everyone knew how critical he was towards their own games. It is said that he actually broke a controller when he played Watch Dogs the first time because he was so disappointed.
Vivendi are known for making a quick cash grab by any means possible and then selling/dismantling the company. They've been doing this for decades.

>"Wii U gamers don't like mature games, so we're going to keep giving them Just Dance instead of actually putting effort into our ports"
Sure he does. Don't get me started on the downgrades from E3 footage either.
Gabriel Bailey
but he's right
does mario look like a mature game to you? not to mention that Ubi supported the Wii U more than any other third party publisher and was there on day one
not his fault wii u sucks and nintendo's fanbase is full of manchildren
Matthew Bailey
You clearly don't know how shit is Vivendi nowadays. Fuck Bolloré
Gabriel Howard
No. If Ubi goes down, it's over for them. They will never be a company that makes video games again.
Vivendi is literally the same as Tencent.
Honestly, fuck you guys and your Ubi hate. AC Syndicate was good for an AC game, R6: Seige is actually good. They make very mediocre games overall and it's good filler. It might've been funny when it was a meme, but continuing to hate on Ubisoft and lump them in with shit like EA and Bioware is retarded.
Angel Taylor
Do Fatal Frame and Bayonetta look like mature games to you? Not to mention that Ubisoft shat on the Wii U at any chance they could get.
>Pushed Rayman Legends back until it wasn't even an exclusive anymore
>Continuously put no effort into their ports and never made use of the GamePad except in ZombiU
>Excluded Wii U whenever they could like other 3rd parties (it didn't get AC Rogue or Unity, it got nothing)
Yes, they supported it more than any other third party but publicly shamed Wii U and Nintendo whenever they could. Can't believe Yves is trying to get the Nintendo audience back by praising the NX because we all know he'll do the same as he did to the Wii U, but that's Ubishit for you I guess.
Good, they deserve to die.
Cameron Fisher
Even Nintendo shamed the Wii U, what's your point? It's a shit system.
Juan Gomez
If it's a shit system, then why does it have more worthwhile exclusives than PS4 and Xbox One?
But sadly, yes it is. Nintendo has been killing it slowly to make way for the NX since last year.
Zachary Morales

Sorry but ubi retaining independence is very important as vivendi will chew them up and spit them out and it will be sold off to companies like activision so fuck off

Fuck, I hope they get the axe, I hate leaf shit.

Ubi is French, you retard
Jose Hill
They hire a lot of Canadians, it's noticeable.
Parker Fisher
No they don't. The most common nationality in Ubi is France.
Hudson Rogers
Linkedin doesn't agree with you.
Joseph Walker
This comes from a Ubisoft employee, you shouldn't trust everything you read on the internet.
John Rivera
You clearly have no idea how cancerous Vivendi is.
Ah, to be a naive american neet.
Tyler Roberts
Why is this a surprise? Wii U has a small userbase and the devs have to put a lot of effort into downgrading. It's not worth it.
Also you're dumb if you don't think the president doesn't care about the graphical downgrades in games like watch dogs. But there's not much he can do besides try to not make it happen again. He doesnt actually develop the games if that's what you think. This is something they talked a lot about when I worked there so I'm pretty sure that shit will improve.
Alexander Sanchez
Be nice to UbiSoft or they will Dox you and your family.

>Ass Creed got milked to death

>Nobody remembered The Division after a month
>Siege was a lucky break
Ubisoft has had plenty of time to get their shit together and they really haven't.
I don't know too much about Vivendi other than during the time they owned Activision, Activision bought their own shares back for a fuckton of money. They that bad?

I've played all of those. Hell, I PAID MONEY for The Crew before it was free at one point on PC, X1, and probably PS4
>The Division
>Fastest selling game of the year
Even ignoring the fact they everyone forgot about it by now, I found that kind of funny. The news about how "well" that game was performing broke around the same time the news of the imminent Vivendi takeover was looming. Coincidence?

They're actually still putting a lot of work into The Division. This month patch 1.4 is coming that completely overhauls how the endgame works.
I never played Rainbow Six 6 Siege but apparently that game has been greatly improved since launch too. Even The Crew looks like it could be worth getting into at this point.
Christian Ward
Are you retarded? I said the most COMMON nationality is France, not the biggest studios are in France.
And I work there so don't try to pull that shit
Jaxson Walker
>b-but if Vivendi buys Ubisoft they'll be even worse!
Worse than yearly releases of the same open world collec-a-thon trash?
Worse than godawful PC ports?
Worse than the fucking Rayman rabbits?
Worse than 9 different versions of Watch Dogs?
Jack Scott
His original point was that they hire a lot of canadian.
Which they do because there's a ton of them, hell there's more people in the bucharest studio than paris + edito united, they might as well be more common.
Ayden Williams
I'm pretty hyped for BG&E2 tbqh senpai I find it hard for them to flop it

He's the same guy who thrown this guy under the bus who started their company
Justin Clark
They'll force microtransactions on every single of their game and it might be possible they'll go to annual release, they're atleast getting their shit together now
