Ubisoft has locked in the release schedule for Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, and it comes with welcome news for handheld PC owners: the remaster has been awarded Steam Deck Verified status ahead of launch, and by extension is confirmed compatible with the Steam Machine platform. TechPowerUp noted the Steam Deck Verified certification, which means […]

As much as I am interested in this game I'm going to wait to read bunch of reviews before getting. Given Ubisoft's continued questionable quality launches (still in shock they screwed up something as simple as SW Monopoly at launch but reviews are slightly better now), I don't want my first hours with it feeling like a beta tester.
 
yeah and I've got at least another 10+ hours to go for my latest run of ROTR, still considering finishing off Oblivion Remastered with the same amount of time, and thinking about a 2nd run of the latest RE game. That being said, if I don't add anything else, I might time it just right to get this at a discount later on. Meanwhile Halo is also on my radar. . .

Speaking of ubi, never got very far with SW Outlaws and I feel I should give it another shot.

I have only seen game play. The enemy AI seemed so broken I never gave it another thought.

Going to be interesting to see how many will buy this new BF version.

Put in maybe 10 hours and can't remember my impressions regarding its AI buy was impressed with its graphics (I enabled the outlaw whatever hidden settings) and design which did give a solid SW feel imho. I waited until a good deal on Epic for the ultimate edition popped up last winter but after starting realized I wasn't quite ready for another 50+ hours and grinding for it yet. Nothing against it, just had others I wanted to get back to.

The one big thing that bugged me though was how it seemed to override my undevolt settings for my 5090s and managed to pull 450 to over 500W. If it still does that I'm going to need to lower some settings which'll be a bummer. Off the top of my head I think this is the only game I've seen do that, CP2077 can hang in the low 400s at max but even it doesn't perform the same way. I did find some threads on the subject and there more than a few folks out there who experienced the same but I was really shocked and uncomfortable with this.
