Ubisoft has not rolled out the "Assassin's Creed" patch 4 update yet but the game publisher confirmed that it will fix the bugs and issues that were still not fixed by the third patch update. The patch is set to resolve crashes and improve the framerate of the game to ensure a better gaming experience for players.
In a post on the Live Updates page, Ubisoft announced that the fourth patch will be rolled out soon, although the company remained hushed on the exact release date of the update.
The recently released patch 3 for the game brings more than 300 bug fixes and updates to resolve the issues and problems in the game. Moreover, the patch improves the performance, matchmaking, connectivity, and other aspects of the game.
Patch 4 update will not be the end of the updates as Ubisoft vowed to release more updates to fixed the bugs. The company also encouraged players to continue in giving feedback whenever they encounter a glitch to help developers in further improving the game.
Meanwhile, Ubisoft's CEO Yannis Mallat apologized to gamers for the rocky launch of "Assassin's Creed: Unity." In return, the game publisher gifts loyal gamers with either a free DLC or a game title published by Ubisoft.
Below are the top priorities that the patch 4 update will fix upon its release, as itemized by Ubisoft:
- Game crashes after loading your save: We're devoting a lot of attention to this one and we have a workaround (try taking your system offline and reload your save, you should be able to play offline). Most instances of this crash will be eliminated in Patch 4, but if you do still encounter this issue after the Patch is applied please file a Customer Support ticket to help us identify what your issue is so we can create a fix for it.
- Error CE-34878-0: Similar to the crash mentioned above, the game freezes or crashes after loading your save. This particular error message is exclusive to PS4. This issue should be resolved in Patch 4.
- Initiates legacy recognition issues: Many of these issues have been resolved, but we've noted that it could still take several days for all of your progress from past games to be fully updated. If after five days you still don't see your progress accurately reflected on the site, please file a ticket with Customer Support so we can more closely examine this issue.
- Companion App issues: We've just released a new patch for the Companion App, so be sure to update to release 1.04 if you have not already. This patch addresses the following issues:
- Restoration of lost Premiums
- Fixed synchronization issues for first-time users and at login
- Fixed the "no assassin" issue in the tutorial
- Fixed missions with 100% odds of success that could fail
- Fixed an issue with lost progress--simply resync with the HD game and load your save, this will synchronize your online progression data.
