Assassin's Creed III

[The American Average]

Is this somethingcyou want in your AC http://www.oxm.co.uk/39473/assassins...ocial-stealth/

So, any chances we're getting tombs?
Maybe the Dutch made some secrets locations in New York, back when it was still New Amsterdam.

[Luffyko]

Gimme that game. Now.
My way to say "That's a great trailer"

Sounds good

+ this little interview



Glad that Corey May is back... He has written AC and AC2... For me storywise the best games

"It's also a story that's relevant to many different audiences. While the American Revolution is obviously very important to Americans, it's also important to the British - the joke of the time was that this was a civil war fought on foreign soil - the French - the money they invest helping the Patriots win the war leads directly to the French Revolution - and for the rest of the world, this is the roots of the American century, which just finished."

Set-up for a AC game in France? (which would be awesome)

Some concept art of the various locations and characters. The most interesting part I think is about the battles. It seems Connor will be in the thick of different battles from the time with certain things he needs to do and you have to maneuver through the fighting to complete those. Fighting with hundreds of people on either side.

-There's no more target locking, it just automatically detects your target. Counter/defense are the same button to prevent turtling.

Well that's guaranteed to make things 200 times more frustrating

Hopefully they will have it so the enemies can't turtle as well*.

*As I haven't played Assassin's Creed 2 and it's expansions yet, maybe they fixed this already

[fedcom]

I don't know what that means, I haven't played the first game. They probably have though, given how much the series changed starting from II

The last one I played was Brotherhood, and they didn't even have a *great* targeting system then. Shooting or areal assassinating the wrong target and hence getting caught was a thing that happened way too often :/

[DarthAsthma]

I just hope they throw the only one enemy attacks out of the window, I think a combat system similar(but not the same) to arkham city with a lot of ac thrown in character could work very well.

I never had any problem with attacking the wrong person.

-- new enemy types include agile native american foes and burly Scottish men- the plot covers 35 years of Connors life
- Connors goal in the plot is to save his people and to give his people a place in the future of america.
- a new feature ubisoft is calling stalking zones in where connor can slink into bushes and can move through the foliage, the player can manoeuvre himself around the assassination target and go in for the kill.
- there will be snow patrol of mainly redcoats in horse carriages throughout the frontier.
- adding on to the snow weather, theres also be rain and fog
- enemies are also carrying axes( Scotsmen)
- combat has been completely overhauled allowing the player to assign a weapon in each hand and will alternate the press of the X and Y buttons.
- a new Chinese inspired weapon called the rope dart allows you to string your enemies up like poultry.

- the controls for free running have been simplified that remove the need to hold separate buttons during free running, the A button is drafted in for specific verticle climbing.
- 30 percentage of the missions take place in the frontier
- Frenchman Lafayette is in the game.
- holding A with RT is now for climbing upwards.
- Citizens have individual roles and routines in the cities.
- 3:1 is the scale of Boston compared to the real city
- the narrative scope of assassins creed 3 is 20% larger than AC2
- the percentage of spoken characters in the game that are based on real historical people is 80%.
- QUOTE: " assassins creed 3 is all but to renew your faith in the series".

[Sakonosolo]

I find them using Xbox controls only kind of obnoxious but oh well. I don't see how the RT+A is any different than what we have now, and before that it said just A was used. The two handed weapon thing sounds pretty interesting.

Well, that's... a, er...

Wii U AC 3 details about how it will play on the Wii U.

That's nice, the Wii U controller is being used as a bonus to the game rather than changing the control-scheme completely and fucking it up.
