Compared to other games in the series, AC III will have the most time spent in the present day and as playable parts involving Desmond. The doomsday scenarios predicted by the Mayans and others also plays a large role in the game.

A bunch of details from Pax East.

* Connor moves faster than Enzio and has a ton of new animation moves for combat, climing, and other things.
* Game starts off with Connor fighting alongside the rebels.
* Combos are now momentum based since Connor won't suddenly stop after landing or hitting an enemy.

Emperor Smeat 04-23-2012 05:46 PM

A couple of details regarding the pre-order editions with Gamestop in the US and GAME in the UK are the ones who will exclusively carry the Freedom Edition and GAME Edition.

Quote:

For us here in the States, the previously-revealed Freedom Edition of Assassin’s Creed III will be exclusive to GameStop. The Freedom Edition will feature a Connor figurine, a steel book case, an exclusive lithograph, George Washington’s notebook (which contains “revealing all the truth & secrets about the Assassins and the Templars during the American Revolution”), and two bonus single-player stages: Lost Mayan Ruins and Ghost of War.

Meanwhile over in the UK, recently beleaguered retailer GAME will actually be playing host to the Assassin’s Creed III GAME Exclusive Edition, which will include the exclusive single-player mission A Dangerous Secret, along with the flintlock musket as a bonus weapon.

That scene where he's jumping from building to building is a total ripoff of Bourne Supremacy.

Besides that looks pretty cool. Cornwallis is a dead man.

New trailer for Independence Day. Or perhaps one to hype something bigger for Independence Day. Make what you will of it.

Also, special edition was announced.

According to rumors, AC 3 will have a Season Pass possible and Ubisoft currently has a team dedicated to just working on DLC for the game right now.

I am considering investing in a PS3 for this title and other double double E games.

PS3 version is getting exclusive DLC at launch which was originally announced at E3 but now confirmed to be about an extra hour worth of gameplay.

Some new details and plans for Assassin's Creed were recently announced at PAX.

There will be monthly challenges which unlocks new game content which also extends the overall storyline. Ubisoft is currently planning about a year's worth of extra storyline content for the game.

Weather effects will impact how the play moves and overall visibility while objects found in the environment or equipped can trigger special environmental kills".

Horde-like co-op mode similar to Gears of War 3 in a sense that your hunting down targets instead of just clearing waves. Also a regular 4v4 team based multiplayer mode was confirmed.

Fucking awesome weather's gonna play a part.

Sitting in a forest, a column of redcoats passing through, fog rolling in, start from the back and work my way up.......:drool:

Emperor Smeat 09-19-2012 05:14 PM

New developer diary explaining more about the AI, weather system, and environmental system for the game.

Emperor Smeat 09-24-2012 05:23 PM

Both EGM and Destructoid had hands-on previews with the game with their reactions being the NPC quests are a lot more expansive than the previous game, sailing is pretty easy and smooth, combat is a lot smoother and the best in the entire series, and the new multiplayer modes are good.

Quote:

Domination is pretty much like Domination in every other game out there. You have three markers scattered about a map with the objective being to control these markers for the majority of the match and you score points every few seconds based on how many markers are in control by your faction. The difference is its done with an Assassin’s Creed flair in that a capturing team cannot kill players who control the section, they can only stun them, and it takes longer to capture a point then it does for someone to recover from stun. This presents the interesting dilemma of knowing when to expose oneself, if at all.

The big draw for multiplayer this go around though was the Wolf Pack Co-op. In this mode, you and three friends attempt to perform as many assassinations as possible and each assassination is scored. By hitting certain point thresholds, the assassinations start to get harder and harder as you move through 25 point thresholds.

The most interesting twist here though is that by coordinating your assassinations with teammates, you can earn larger and larger point bonuses so balancing both quality and quantity is the only effective way to progress through the higher levels. Not to mention communication becomes critical. There are also special side missions that can add to the score and your experience if you can accomplish them with the most impressive being the multi-sync kill. This is where all four members of the team must lock onto their targets and execute them at the same time, triggering an impressive cinematic and massive score bonuses.

Ubisoft themselves said to expect a lot of twists and "seeds" to occur in AC III since they are going to be setting up a lot of new future storylines to the point they don't need to finish any of them in a row or even have the same characters showing up in back-to-back games.

Thought this was class when I tried it out, wasn't a big fan of sea battles though...
Graphics seemed to decrease massively for them... Could of just been the build I was playing though.

Emperor Smeat 10-03-2012 05:21 PM

Ubisoft confirms the game will have an Online Pass and its going to be about $30. The Pass generates about 25% worth in savings if all the DLC packs are bought.

Also revealed was the 1st set of DLC for the game is a 3-part storyline campaign involving Evil George Washington.

Quote:

Ubisoft’s expansion plans for Assassin’s Creed III look to be more ambitious than in previous offerings, with the company already announcing a three-part story called The Tyranny of King George.

The Tyranny of King George supposes the Revolutionary War didn’t end with a future full of democracy, but a power-hungry George Washington succumbing to the very thing he fought against.
The Wii U version will also be getting the DLC pack when the game is released later.

Benedict Arnold DLC mission pack was announced to be exclusive to the PS3 version of the game. It will contain 4 missions and primary take place during his attempt to sabotage West Point.

Unlike the alternative reality Evil George DLC story, this one is supposedly being modeled around the actual conversations and plans Benedict had with the British.

Sweeeeeeeeeet. Other than Cornwalis, Arnold was the only other guy I hoped I would be hunting down in this game.

Paid this off this morning at Gamestop and I got all halloween to play it.
