assassian's creed

I am thinking about getting this game. What kind of controller will I need with this game? I don't like using the keyboard for game play.

You can use the wired xbox 360 controller or wireless.

the 360 controller is perfect for assassins creed.

I have Assassins creed and I use the Logitech Gamepad and it works just fine. I do happen to be buying the Xbox Controller as Rainbow six vegas 2 requires that. I use Vista Ultimate 64 and have had no issues with controllers.

Now I am just disappointed, I installed my new graphics card and checked index score. I went from a 3.0 to a 4.1, I thought that was good. Well apparently not, the game recommends a 5.5 but required is a 5.0 and now I am stuck at 4.1. That just bites. The game doesn't work well at all, it moves at a snails pace. Does any body have any good suggestions that doesn't involve money? Is there a work around for this. Thanks for all the input on game controllers. This is my first experience with PC gaming and I am totally let down by it.

R there any video settings that you can lower.

What settings? Please forgive, as I am new to this pc gaming stuff and I am not sure what settings I can lower or change for that matter. Thanks for the help.

Is there anyway you could RMA your new card and get an 8600 instead? I bought an XFX 8600GT for about $80 and have no problem running Assassins Creed or Cysis etc.

In the options for the game there should be a video or graphics section.

 

[bassfisher6522]

Ok, I found the options section in the game and change every thing to the lowest settings. I made a little improvement but nothing to warrant me to keep playing. It is still slow and jumpy. What else can you advise me on. Good tips by the way. I think I going to bite the bullet and buy a new power supply and a better graphics card.

 

[mansrm81]

I don't know why it would run slow with 512Mb card for.

Your system score is determined by the lowest subset. In the results of your Windows Experience Index Test, what category and number is the lowest score? If your graphics is not the lowest, improving your graphics card will not improve your score. The ideal situation is to have all of your system parts above 5.0. To go from a 3.0 to a 5.0 or even from 4.1 is a fairly jump, unless your graphics card is the only thing holding you back. The highest possible score is only a 5.9 (Don't ask why). At this point, it may be worth buying a new system since the parts that you would buy would be in the hundreds of dollars.
