Assassins Creed 3

BIGGIEsmall

So this was announced yesterday for October 30. Apparently the setting is taking place during the American Revolution and preparing for a doomsday scenario.
What changes would you want to see made from Revelations?

VinLieger

I would make the change that they went back in time didnt get greedy and turn it into a yearly release.
Its really doesnt take long to start getting bored of playing the same damn game every year.

Apparenty it has been in development for 3 years so hopefully it is is an enhanced experience all over. It bloody well needs it.
I was suprised by how good Brotherhood was but Revalations was a big dissapointment (den defence... :mad:).

Unless this is the overall improvement they are making it out to be , and if this doesnt knock me off my seat and hit it out of the ball park then assassin creed and myself are parting ways ..

Ubisoft didnt need revelations , it barely needed brotherhood but i could look past that cause the game was freakin awesome !!

I could give a rats arse about desmond

So again FINAL CHANCE ubisoft , hope ye are not talking out of your arse
:pac:

the ending was the only thing worthy of another release in terms of AC:R. Those portal bits and the bombs and the tower defence parts didn't fool me. AC:R was essentially the same game we played since AC:2 only with the worse and sameyist city of the 3 before it only watered down to the bitter end

I really hope they end it here and on a high but on past perfomrance i think winter 2013 will bring AC:World at War/Modern Warfare/Battle field X!!!!

I liked the bombs, hopefully they keep them.

Didn't mind the bombs myself. They weren't necessary for success and you couold ignore them if you wanted. My problem was that they made a big deal about them.

American Revolution.....I have to be honest, that sounds ****e. I loved AC and AC2, 2.5 and 2.7 mainly because of their settings (especially AC1).

Revolution time America sounds boring and about as exotic as a Big Mac. Even French revolution sounds better.

I really hope they get rid of the 100% sync goals or make them a little more realistic.

Goal: "Don't use hidden blades, only bombs as the devs spent a lot of time working on them so we want to make sure you use them"

Sync failed!

Definately agree. It may be interesting to guys in the US but not to guys in Europe and elsewhere.

WolfForager

Victorian London would have been the best scenario.

Ugh, American Revolution...

But you could just as easily say the first three games were not interesting to people from the US because they were set elsewhere.

That actaully sounds like it could be brilliant!

I think people should put a bit more trust in the developers. OK I can see why Revelations might have disappointed some, but it was still a nice lead on from the others and they probably wanted to milk the game a bit as Assassins Creed 2 was brilliant.

Reasons to have faith Assassins Creed 3 will be great;

-Last time they had a significant amount of time to develop a sequel they made Assassins Creed 2 which was stunning and the leap from an interesting game in AC1 to a stunning game in AC2 was a great achievement.

-Possibly an even more impressive feat was Brotherhood, as it was just as good as AC2, so much so you didn't really miss AC2, and was released fairly soon after as well which is impressive.

-A new time and location is a gamble, but given it's been in development for 3 years or more, and what we've seen of the series so far, it should be at worst a decent game, and potentially stunning.

we have an ad in for preoders of this in our next canadian issue... would i be letting the cart out of the bag if i said it has the new protagonist holding a gun and an axe, with a bow and a quiver on his back, standing in front of an american flag with 13 stars on it?

:P

dreamers75

Tempted to wiki Revelations plot as i could not be arsed playing it anymore.

Highly unlikely this will be a day 1 purchase for me. Shame thought after 1 they figured out what worked and didnt.

Zero-Cool

After revelations and helix saying protagonist has a gun and sounds like it's set in the civil war, I will def be waiting for reviews. Just not pushed anymore. Ubi will have to do something special to pull this off

they have/will from what ive been told

Krusader

I was hoping for a Revolutionary France setting, in Paris, storming the Bastille, the march on Versaille, mob rule, guillotines, the rise of napolean boneparte, would've been epic

Definetly not civil war if the flag has only 13 stars

Read up on history the 13 star flag has some significance.

I hope we get to chose between helping the British or the Americans.

Interesting...

Say, hypothetically, if a game concerning Assassins and the American Revolution were to have an image of the lead character circulating around the media. How long before said image, once again hypothetically, would become available to the public?
