Are people just not playing AC Brotherhood multiplayer anymore

[McMullen]

I know Revelations just came out but... damn. I've been trying for the last 20 minutes to join a game (the Animus is, as I type, repeating those damned two phrases to me still. You know the ones) and 4/6 is the closest I've gotten, and that was after someone invited me to a group.

Has anyone else been able to find a match? Anyone want to set up a group?

Well with these yearly release pumps the multiplayer communities get a quick shafting, and there weren't that many people on AC to begin with.

I got brotherhood a few months ago..there were a few peopel on it then...

but thankfully I had no Idea brotherhood was a "full" game..I assumed it focused on multiplayer and the single player was like 2-4 hours long.....silly me

Well, personally I stopped playing the multiplayer simply because I reached the max level and then found little point in it.

Good Luck finding a game though. This type of thing is why I really don't like having to rely of multiplayer to have fun with a game. x3

I might wind up trying to get a Brotherhood game again soon; as much as I like Revelations, I miss having my Hellequin. I also miss Perks that are worth taking...

Seriously, they royally screwed up the perks in Revelations. Brotherhood gives you some of the best perks quite early on (Smoke Bomb remains my weapon of choice), meaning you can sort of combat inexperience with quality abilities. Sure, having a smoke bomb and a hidden gun won't make you awesome at the game, but it does mean the level 50s you're playing against might have to take a little more time planning their assault (or how to avoid yours).

Revelations? Not so much. High Levels get access to the most powerful perks, leaving low-levels with shoddy choices. It's hardly fair that the only player in a match with access to smoke bombs is also the no-lifer who's already level 50, and has probably memorised every map by now...

Had a little laugh with it at the beginning, but the SP was more important to me. And i remember waiting 20mins for a session to join was pretty normal, i blame Ubisoft servers.

Xbox, Ps3, or pc?

I suppose you'll have more luck around Christmas, since many people (including myself) are holding out 'til then.

I wonder if i'd find more faults with the AC series if I actually paid for any of them...

It's gotta be better than Brotherhood surely, the waiting times were bordering on insane everytime I tried to find a match (on 360 btdubs).

I need to stop making posts with single line paragraphs, but "new paragraph for new subject" rule demands I continue.

Ehh, I don't think that game really was destined to have a long life cycle. Great idea, but it didn't really work.

I was having this problem 2 months after Brotherhood came out actually, and just with the nature of it's multiplayer, and the yearly releases of AC, it just cant keep players, no matter how great it is.

 

[Rednog]

Hell I had a really hard time finding games like a month after the release on the PC, I'd be absolutely shocked to see people still playing it now.

 

[JemothSkarii]

My friend has recently bought the game (on PS3) and has waiting times of around an hour to find a game, so I think since Revelations is out, yeah, everyone has probably moved on.

 

[Trippy Turtle]

It never worked for me.
I played it a few times at a friends and loved it so much but I can sit there searching for an hour without finding a game.
