Saw this (thanks to @Phil-Vhee for the insight ) :

usually when you start a festival you have 0 token (even if you already collected some more in previous festivals)

now I have this :

1. Snow
2. No Fesival
3. 75 Token from the last festival (ended december the 9th, 2021)

this won't help if I can't access the festival

In fact Ubi is bringing back to you your old Tokens only if you can't use them

same here. PS4, Latest Update 1.4.1, all DLCs installed, Yule '20 done, snow but no Yule '21. Latest save should be in the cloud.

Btw. still have some dupe tattoos from francia

We’re going on the 4th day without access to the festival and no information. Sad thing is that Ubisoft is tweeting about the event on the assassinscreed account like everything is working with it. I bet if it was tied to a micro transaction that they’d get it working asap. I’m losing tolerance for them and their actions.

@azullfr I honestly had not noticed that the old tokens had returned as well. How positively terrible.

@Ubi-Orion @Ubi-Keo Same problem, no yule festival on PS5, newest save in cloud.

Same thing for me on PC

@nike3379 I have this same issue. No notification. No festival. Just snow.

@azullFR @TheNorfolkian see, I was right about keeping as many tokens as needed. But if I didn't care about how many of them I have, if I could participate in the festival, I would have it easier

@nike3379

If you checked out Twitter

@assassinscreed
We're aware of an issue causing the Yule Festival to not activate for some players who have played it previously. We are currently investigating and will share an update with more information soon.

@ubi-mushy thanks for comming back to us with an update! Its good to hear that people are working on it.

@ubi-mushy
Great news !

@ubi-mushy Great news as I am also having the issue!

Thanks!

In some ways it might be worse for you as you've seen, first hand over all this time how they've not pulled their fingers out to fix these day one bugs.

For me, It really sours the experience. I'm enjoying the game, but I really don't want to advance the quests because I'm dreading getting to a game-breaking bug. A game that is meant to be fun has me feeling (minor) anxiety that all the effort I'm putting into it could be stopped dead through no fault of my own. For these quests there may be work-arounds to stop or limit the bug(s) with a certain mission, but what am I meant to do? Go read one of these work-around solutions while getting spoilers? Play the mission and pray it doesn't bug, then when it does, use the work-around and have to do the mission all over again? And that's only for the ones where there is a way to 'fix' it.

By not fixing these bugs this is what Ubisoft is subjecting its fans/customers to!

But they make sure they still sell items and DLC's.

There's also still the issue with AC Blackflag. For most if not all people some of the DLC is not on peoples accounts and cannot be played, even though they have paid for it. They fixed the issue for Steam users (probably because Steam would have took some type of action, taking it down, refunds or something like that). This issue has been going on for over a year with not a fix in sight.

With the issues stated here (all the long term bugs with ACV, the scummy issue with ACBF), the bugs with using a VPN, and how Ubisoft see's NFT's, I will never trust Ubisoft again.

@aorus2017

Why should they have to "check out Twitter"?!

This is the ACV forum, This is where info should be posted.

@simplethumb actually there is a megathread dedicated to that issue.

@bielik01

Thanks.

But I still think announcements like this should be put in this forums 'News and Announcements' section.

@simplethumb I can't disagree
I learned to keep my eyes open and follow everything there is.

@bielik01

How's the gameplay doing that? Searching social media, looking at gaming website news?

Might be better than the gameplay in ACV

@ubi-keo same with me, snow but no festival
