Ubisoft Promises ‘The Crew’ Won’t be Like ‘Assassin’s Creed Unity’

The Crew performance


Developer and publisher Ubisoft took a massive hit to its reputation this month when Assassin’s Creed Unity released in an unacceptable state, with woeful framerates and a laundry list of crashes and glitches. There were eighteenth century French peasants hovering in the air, magically appearing from nowhere or disappearing into walls, and poor Arno Dorian wasn’t much better off. Players frequently found themselves falling through the floor into a void or simply suspended in the air, with Arno flailing his arms ineffectually. That’s without even getting into the horrifying “missing face” glitch.



Ubisoft has since been scrambling to fix the situation, releasing a third major patch this week and offering consumers free DLC or a free game as an apology. It’s worth mentioning that Far Cry 4 released a week after Assassin’s Creed Unity and was in altogether a pretty polished state, but it’s fair to say that quite a few people have been left wary of buying Ubisoft games on launch day.


The next big upcoming Ubisoft release is The Crew, an open world racing game with integrated singleplayer and multiplayer – or “MMO-Car-PG,” as it’s been dubbed. The Crew has had four closed betas and one open beta, which means that it will theoretically be prepared for its imminent release, but The Metropolist contacted lead game designer Serkan Hasan and asked if there was a risk of The Crew experiencing the same breadth of problems as Assassin’s Creed Unity. In response, Hasan promised that the game would run at 1080p and 30fps on consoles at launch, and said that he has “confidence in the stability of the game and its performance.”


The Crew


There’s obviously a big difference between a select group of players trying out The Crew in a closed beta and the number of people who will be playing it on launch day, but Hasan said that the repeated beta tests over the course of The Crew‘s development leaves it in a good position.


“For The Crew, we’ve reaped the benefits of a long term beta program, designed specifically to push our infrastructure as far as possible in real world situations, with thousands of players from all over the world playing the game at the same time.


“The launch of any online game these days has potential issues, but I hope that players will be encouraged by our open approach. If you had any doubts that we could pull this off, I hope that the betas proved our credentials and the game’s stability.”



It seems like Assassin’s Creed Unity‘s problems may have stemmed from the pressure of an annual release schedule. Far Cry 4 hit shelves two years after Far Cry 3 and The Crew is a new IP that was made by a different developer, so there’s no reason to assume that it will suffer from a similar set of glitches and performance issues as Ubisoft’s latest historical adventure. Nonetheless, it might be best to wait for reviews before buying.


The Crew is set to launch on December 2, 2014 for PC, PS4, Xbox One and Xbox 360.

‘Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker’ Review

Captain Toad Treasure Tracker Review


If there’s ever been a longstanding character in the happy, go-lucky world of Nintendo that’s deserved his own spinoff, it’s Toad. The quirky little mushroom man has largely been playing third fiddle to the likes of Mario and Luigi, but now he’s finally able to step into the limelight with a brand new title called Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker. The game features the same charm of the longstanding Super Mario franchise, but this cutesy installment is a little short on content for game-hungry Wii U owners.


Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker doesn’t play out like standard Mario titles, and is instead based off of the miniature puzzle-based stages scattered throughout Super Mario 3D World. The original stages that threw players into the role of Captain Toad were so well-received and popular that Nintendo decided the headlamp-wearing hero deserved his very own game.



Unlike many traditional puzzle games, this Treasure Tracker often puts the main protagonist (either Toadette or Captain Toad depending on the level) in a diorama-inspired stage that requires users to reach a star by overcoming various obstacles. The real fun comes from the fact that Captain Toad is unable to jump because he’s weighed down by his enormous knapsack – thus hopping and skipping through areas isn’t an option. Instead, players must rely on a combination of switches, items and other tools to get out of each stage safely and with treasure in tow.


Captain Toad Treasure Tracker Toadette


One core mechanic that comes with basing a majority of the stages on dioramas is the camera control. Looking at areas from different angles will show players new ways to overcome obstacles or find some very well hidden treasure. Camera control has always been an important aspect in any 3D title, but it’s implemented in Treasure Tracker in a way that makes it feel like more of a gameplay mechanic than an expectation. This can be frustrating at times, but being able to simultaneously control the camera and Captain Toad proves to be a fun endeavor.


The game also does a good job at throwing different scenarios into the mix to keep play sessions feeling fresh. A particular variant are the mine cart levels that place users into a first-person view of the action on the Wii U’s GamePad – suffice to say, these portions are eerily similar to Pokemon Snap. Making stellar use of the gyroscopic capabilities of that controller, it stands out as a welcome change from the meat of the puzzle gameplay. Meanwhile, boss battles also offer a fun and frantic way to play, but the problem with both of these different level types is that there are simply too few of them.


It should also be noted that each and every stage is oozing with charm. Everything from the cinematics to the layout of each stage will immediately draw fans into the world that Nintendo has created for the game’s title character. The same level of shine that made the aforementioned Super Mario 3D World stand out as a brilliant platformer has been applied to every facet of Captain Toad, but there just isn’t enough to actually explore.


Captain Toad Treasure Tracker Boss


The truth is that Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker isn’t a very long game and the overall difficulty will have experienced gamers tearing through it in just a few short hours. Whether collecting all three of the diamonds scattered throughout each miniature world or completing an optional side challenge, there are very few difficult portions to be found. Since it’s easy to obtain all of the collectibles within one or two playthroughs, there isn’t a whole lot of replayability either – with the exception of a handful of unlockable bonus worlds.


Taking Captain Toad to various areas from or inspired by Super Mario 3D World, players can snag a green star (and an extensive number of coins) after charging through the main campaign. This makes for a nice distraction, but there isn’t nearly as much heart put into these worlds as what can be found in the core game itself – making these bonus stages a fun but lacklustre distraction.


Despite being short on content, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker creates an atmosphere that’ll keep players smiling throughout. The levels may not be overly challenging after a few minutes of deliberation, but there are so many memorable portions in the title that it’s easy to get lost in the tiny worlds that Nintendo has created. The end result is a discounted game that gives Toad a fun, albeit brief, spin-off that’s hard not to enjoy.

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker will be available exclusively for the Nintendo Wii U on December 5, 2014 in North America and January 2, 2015 in Europe.

‘Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker’ Review

Toilet decorating with black granite countertop São Gabriel

The black granite countertop São Gabriel breaks the white walls and floor, with special attention to the tall pediment. The mirror in turn presents geometric shape that stands out and interrupts the straight lines of the cabinet and countertop. The composition still gets accessories in a hue burned red, that apply the brush color with discretion.



The round mirror interrupts the straight lines that mark the entire project. The pieces, overlapping, have beveled finished. The larger mirror has a diameter of 1.30 m and the lowest, 0.60 m.

The idea of ??a pediment of 0.30 m reinforces the aesthetical proposal from the bathroom. At the top, line detail Write Home (1.50 x 0.60 m) with crystals Swarovski embedded in stone São Gabriel.



It is important to keep the height of the pediment also on the sides. The difference, at here, is the crystals appear only in the extension area.


The countertop has 2.31 ??x 0.60 x 0.87 m. The black granite São Gabriel was elected not to present mixtures of colors. The white MDF cabinet follows the size of the bench and instead of doors, drawerâ??s features. The handles in cava style leave the look cleaner and the 20 cm height prints symmetry to the furniture.

Whim to keep the same idea in the whole space: the area of the box, niche 25 x 25 x 10 cm (height x width x depth), embedded in masonry, were coated with black marble.

The floor must be clean and easy on the feet. Some of the choices include laminate, bamboo, or wood flooring. Rugs in neutral colors can add more warmth to the room.


The next step is to remove the clutter from the room. Get rid of the stacks of magazines on the floor beside the bed or the clothes on top of the chair. Remove unnecessary things from the bedroom. Keep only the important stuff inside the room that will help you feel more relaxed.


Designing Zen bedroom in simple steps requires some elements of nature. Find pottery, glass or woven baskets to decorate the room. Fill the pottery or glass with seashells. Use the basket to store items. Create wall decorations from twig or bamboo. Be creative in incorporating natural materials in the design.


One of the principles of Zen is balance. Be sure to design the room in a symmetrical manner. Always use two pieces of the same item in the room. This could be two paintings in the wall, or two pillows in the bed.

Light is another important element when designing Zen bedroom. The windows should be covered with light materials in order to allow natural light inside the room. If possible, don’t use curtains. Use mirrors or any reflective surfaces to reflect natural light throughout the room. If you need to block sunlight, you natural bamboo blinds instead of vinyl.


The bed and other furniture in the room must have minimalist design. They must be made of wood that complements the material of the floor. Use simple wood framed beds or any simple bed design.

Plants are also a must for a Zen bedroom. Use Lucky Bamboo or bonsai plants to decorate the room. When selecting plants, you should opt for small ones. It will feel crowded if you use ones that are too big for the room.
