Well I see there is no topic for it so far and soon the game will be released…
I have to admit that I bought the past games 2 days ago and I'm simply amazed. The first part wasn't that great but as soon as I got to the second I was heavily suprised how good the game is.
Now I can't wait for this game.
I'm pretty sure there is a topic for this, but it's called Assassin's Creed 3 or something like that. Anyway can't wait for this game either. I need to go back and play the earlier ones.
I haven't been following much on this one since I'm just gonna get it when it's reduced in the new year. But whats the new thing they're putting in this one? While the last one added the extra assassin's and multiplayer I couldn't help but feel like I was just doing same-old, same-old through it.
Well it continues the story after that fucking cliffhanger.
Yeah I made a topic titled The Next Assassins Creed or something like that.
Anyway, I'm not too sure about the changes, since I haven't been keeping up with it as much as I'd like to, but I'm sure there are some significant changes. I made a quick search right now and found this:
[h=3]Weapons
Edit[/h]A new weapon called the hookblade will be introduced, which will allow Ezio to use ziplines throughout the city, speeding up navigation by around 30%. Additionally, a crafting system will allow the creation of bombs, with options for up to 300 different types.[3]
[h=3]Assassin's Dens
Controlling a den and its surrounding region will allow the player to upgrade all the shops and buildings in that area, including the den itself, which will provide more navigation options (like additional ziplines for the hookblade) in that part of the city. As an added benefit, controlling a den will change the character of the surrounding guards. Regular Ottoman patrols will continue to monitor the regions under control, and will still halt if illegal activities are committed, but won't be overly hostile.[3]
Assassin's Dens can be protected by either the player or by an assigned Master Assassin, who will ensure the prevention of any further Templar attacks on the building.[3]
Instead of only featuring normal secondary memories, Ubisoft has added new "Random Quests". For example, you will find a store owner being robbed or a child in need of help.[3][4]
Eagle Vision has been modified into Eagle Sense, which would allow the player to focus on a character and determine the route they have taken. This will thus give the player an estimation of where they will go, which could be useful for ambushes or locating a secluded place to strike a target.[3]
Ezio will be searching for the seals containing Altaïr's memories, thus allowing the player to control Altaïr.[3]
The modern day aspect of the game will also be upgraded with a new feature labeled "revolutionary gameplay," in which Desmond Miles will need to change the construct of his ancestors' memories and, in the process, unravel the future.[3]
To do this, Desmond will enter the Animus and find a safe-mode called the "Black Room," where he will reintegrate the splintered layers of his subconscious. Here, a great deal more about Desmond's own past will be revealed.[3]
During a recent interview with gameplanet.com (a New Zealand based gaming website), Darby McDevitt stated that the majority of Desmond's gameplay will be within the Animus and indicated that there may be a very small portion in a different context.
The Desmond gameplay will be similar, in a way, to the Secret Locations that were seen in previous games. To quote Alexandre Breault: "The majority of the game-play in these Animus section focuses on movement, timing, and precision, but we also include some illusion based puzzles inspired by the work of Rene Magritte and Roger Penrose. The main goal here is to encourage the player to think and engage with the environment, not simply pass it by."[5]
The game will also make updates to crowd mechanics, adding "stalkers" who run up to Ezio and attack him, preceeded by whispers, similar to Brotherhood's multiplayer.
In the same vein of making the gameplay seem more real, mission givers will no longer stand motionless, ready to give Ezio a task – They will be real people, performing tasks of their own until Ezio approaches, and talks to them.[6]
There will now be Optional Objectives. These will consist of small tasks to complete within a mission e.g Perform a zipline assassination.[7]
I feel like it's hard to expand much more on the AC formula at this point, especially now that they've extended the Desmond/Ezio stuff this far. But I'm pretty sure they realize an actual AC 3 has to be a game-changer.
Still excited about this, though.
AssCreed 3 will probably be part of the next generation. I've been replaying the original though and am amazed at how far we've come with these games.
Yeah it's pretty amazing to see the difference between the first and the following games. In comparison the original one is like a tech demo that is half of a game.
True that… Now I'm playing the second and it is miles better.
But I agree that III will probably be a "bigger" change even if I have to say... CoD and most of the other shooters bring the same shit up each and every year with even less changes and reviewers as IGN (It was once a good site) are fapping over it... But on other hand critizise for that reason in some other games

Change or improve something in a game and you'll piss people off, don't change or improve something and you'll piss people off
developer's don't really have it easy when it comes to fixing or bettering sequels to games.

The thing is, COD is the only yearly released shooter; most other shooters, while some are generic relative to their genre, do actually change through sequels.
Battlefield is more or less released each and every year… But whatever, that's not the point. I was just bitching about how bad IGN has become

Like I said, though, major changes and improvements upon each new entry in the series. But, I digress, I know IGN has gotten bad, but quite frankly I don't find them as awful as everyone else does. Maybe I'm just used to their horridness.
Anyway, can't wait for this game. I had a lot of fun with Brotherhood, both sp and mp wise, but unfortunately I only rented it for like 6 days. I actually 100%ed all of Rome in those days, and managed to score a respectable 850 GS. Thanksgiving break, was playing the game all day for the whole break nonstop.
Yeah Brotherhood is amazing… And one of the best examples for IGN bad rating. CoD brought nothing really new and got for example higher score than Brotherhood who brought up a completely new multiplayer feeling... (Not saying CoD is a worse than AC) And IGN says... Nothing new.
But whatever back to the game... Can't wait to see the ending of this one and how this will end the Ezio saga... And what's next for the franchise

If you pay attention you'd notice people saying that neither BC game was a BF game so the last BF game was released 6 years ago.
I'm so excited for Revelations, I can't wait until I' play it for the very first time! I pre-ordered the collector's edition (as a late birthday present :>)
I play the AC games for the story and the characters, it doesn't bother me if they don't change much gameplay-wise (though the new changes sound pretty sweet).
But the games really improved over time. Seriously, AC1 is like a beta version compared to it's sequels xD
As far as I recall, Assassin's Creed 3 will be released next year, before December 21, and it will end Desmond's story.
Launch Trailer
Epic shit..: my body is ready
No always on DRM for the PC version :happy: .
Only a few days left!
It looks bloodier than the previous games. Nice! =D
Love it.
Although I just now finished installing Skyrim.
Best Buy will have it for $34.99 on Black Friday.
holy shit Buuhan for real? do you have a source? my roommate would love to know about that
So looking forward to this game. To me this looks like the best Assassin's Creed yet.
holy shit Buuhan for real? do you have a source? my roommate would love to know about that
I saw it as well, it was on a leaked Best Buy Black Friday ad. Battlefield 3's also getting a drop. Should cancel my AssRev pre-order now.

Is it really any surprise? All of the Assassin Creed games have barely kept their monetary value after release. I predict once the new year rolls around you'll be able to get this one for £15/$20 in most stores.
Oh hey, I do videos on figures and manga and stuff: https://www.youtube.com/thatmanhismerch

It's no surprise that any Ubisoft game drops quickly, but this is still a major game for $25 off a week after its release.
Wondering how long this game will be.
Ubisoft said that with all the cut scenes added up it was about 5 hours and that was about how long brotherhood cut scenes. was so just guessing about the same length as ACBH
Brotherhood wasn't 5 hours long..
Brotherhood wasn't 5 hours long..
Exactly. I wonder how the upgrading system(armor stuff) will work, i mean Ezio is like already master assassin..
Brotherhood wasn't 5 hours long..
yes you're right the dialog/cut scenes were about 5 hours long all together like this
I'd be happy for it to be as long as Brotherhood.
Reviews coming in, definitely a step down from Brotherhood. I'm sure the gameplay will be fun as always, but it sounds (as I expected) like people aren't gonna shell out for more of the same after this one. The ball's in your court, Ubisoft.
From what I've seen its getting mid to high 80's. hows that a "step down"? the only thing that looks bad/out of place is the assassin den defense thing. looks dumb. I just hope they send off there characters (cash cows) story well with no loose ends, you know so they can't make another Ezio game.
The scores are OK and I give a damn cuz the game is just epic in my eyes… but it is funny some of this reviewers are complaining about it getting old but giving CoD higher scores and praising other games with higher scores with the line "Why changing something, if it is damn good"

This is so true.
I'm still waiting for my copy. I hope I'll get it today, if not I'll be really pissed.
BTW, could we post all upcoming story spoilers in spoiler tags? That would be nice!
The story is mind fucking. just enjoy it on your own… Some answers are given and some things are even more strange xD
Oy! I got the special preorder edition, but I can't find the "Assassin's Creed Embers" thingy. I'm not gonna watch it yet because it takes place after Revelations, but I'd like to know ahead of time if they forgot to put in a download code or something.
(Worst case scenario, it'll be on youtube in no time.)
LOVE AND PEACE
Agreed can't find the Music album or embers however i did get the other 2 things ammo cap upgrade Vlad impaler sword. haven't done multiplayer yet. I'm i the Only one who thinks the Signature edition box cover is down right awful?

I got the exclusive content code redeemed and everything but I'm not sure if I have any of those things or where I have them or anything. Any help, guys?
Also, full synchronization for this one's going to be a bitch. Hopefully extra missions don't count towards that.
Just beat the game very good. However I'd rather have had More Altair his story was much more interesting than Ezio's entire journey
How much screentime does Altair get in comparison?
Not that much.
In the middle of this game right now, ton of fun but I can definitely tell this series is turning annual.
Yeah Altair's screen time was small. Each mission for him was 10 to 20 minutes at most.
