Assassin's Creed II

Is this the remastered version?
Ive played this twice already but can not work out if these games are the remastered versions. They look pretty, but I cant find a decent comparison online. Just curious. :steamthumbsup:

I think remastered on consoles was just them putting the graphics on par with the games max pc graphics.

Nah, it has new HD textures that are nice to have. It also removes the mono-color filter from the original release. Which makes the game more vibrant but less uniform in look.

edit: it has applied a smoother filter to shadows too, no more jaggedness on shadow maps, softer shadows.

And can look even better - there are mods to increase the LOD and shadow resolution, there are higher resolution texture packs and there's also ReShade to add on top of all that.

Crazy. For such an old game, I was super impressed with how it looked. Running it 1080p@200fps+ is pure bliss
Hi everyone :)

The remastered version was only released on consoles (as part of the Ezio Collection). On PC, it is still the original version, which was released in 2009.

Happy to read that you were impressed by how it looks :)

Is there any hope for the remastered versions of the AC1,AC2,ACB,ACR to come to PC?

I disagree. The pc versions of these games look worse and they have fps drops and stuttering with some other bugs. Plus the DLC is now gone from them. That video was actually proven wrong as NPCs are randon even in cutscences and it is only 1 NPC.

FPS drops and stuttering? I played the entire desmond saga at 240fps with vsync on and did not have a single drop or stutter.

AC2 is capped at 60fps. AC1 bugs out at over 60fps. AC3R is capped at 60fps with the og bugging out at over 60. AC4 is capped at 60. It is impossible to play the 5 games all at that high frame rate.
I don't understand why are you are against the new versions coming out. It is harmless at worse for thoses who prefer orginal

AC2, Brotherhood and Revelations can be changed to 240 in the settings, AC3 can be set to higher than 60. You can modify ACIV to be over 60 as well, which I did.

Why would you need over 60FPS anyway that's 180 Frames every second you won't even see.

there is an enormous difference between 60 and 240, its actually unbelievable that people still fall for that myth. I have a 240hz monitor, I can switch between 240 and 60 as much as I like and the difference is massive. 60 looks like garbage in comparison. Our eyes not being able to see over 60 (funny you say that, it was 30fps 10 years ago that people were saying we couldnt see over...) is a myth, and we can actually tell the difference between numbers in the hundreds. the difference between 144 and 240 isnt as great as between 60 and 144, but you can and will still be able to tell the difference.

Theyre old games, I have a decent computer and a high refresh rate monitor, why wouldnt I max out the fps?
