PC Version of Ghost Recon Future Soldier Plagued with Horrendous Issues

Ubisoft is in the process of investigating numerous bugs with PC Future Soldier

Latest in "News Which Shocks No One," yesterday's release of the PC version of Ghost Recon Future Soldier has not gone over well for Ubisoft. The version is currently suffering from a crippling amount of bugs. What kind of bugs, you ask? Well, my friend, they range from the somewhat understandable framerate issues and resolution errors to the facepalm-worthy Xbox 360 buttons being prompted in the interface to the absolutely appalling non-recognition of mouse and WASD controls. Wait, what? 

In our last news post about the game, we had a nice list of the key features for the PC version. Now let's check what it said here:

Playable with keyboard and mouse, or with wired and wireless X360 pads

Yup, that was definitely listed. And it's definitely not the case for many players right now. All jokes aside, while you might say that PC gamers should probably feel fortunate about getting any version at all, this is hardly the version fans probably wanted. Ubisoft's history of late has been tumultuous with PC gamers, to put it kindly, and this can hardly be making matters any better. The good news is that Ubisoft is listening to feedback from the users and investigating the issues. They also released a day-one patch yesterday, which fixed some issues like connectivity issues, but did nothing about the controls.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I'm amazed how such an established company can seem so inept by messing up what seems like the basic stuff.

Ubisoft, like Crytek, seems to be taking up the "Publishers, not Players" flag. Their products continue to disappoint me, and they didn't used to.

So true, and this is the first time I see someone mention it. It's totally ok for new developers to make mistakes or maybe experienced developers creating new kinds of games.. but this is unacceptable and with something so basic as the imput method, even worse.

That day one patch may have fixed some issues that I don't know of however it definitely did not fix connectivity issues after spending 2 hrs "playing" last night and only playing about 30 mins of gameplay I do not feel very impressed with their day one patch.

this is why the only game I'm buying brand new this year will be Borderlands2.. everything else can wait the 6months-1year so that I can get a patched game for dirt cheap on a steam sale..

Im sorry to hear about the PC being buggy. I have it for the PS3 and so far its pretty good control whys. Sometimes ill get stuck on something but other than that its pretty good.

I havent played it online though so i cant vouche for that.

Ubisoft used to be one of my preferred gaming companies. Now I tend to cringe whenever I see that they are developing a new game. This is why.

I kind of see ubisoft and bethesda in the same light.. they both make solid, fun games.. but they are both brutal at porting and beta testing.. I waited until fallout 3 came out with the GOTY edition.. and even it was buggy as heck (I can't imagine the release version).. The only Ubisoft games that I haven't noticed major issues with (other than falling through the floor and out of the world once) are the rainbow six vegas games.. well, unless you call moronic AI a bug..
