got bored of played AC1, so i stopped. friends told me AC2 was so much better and worth playing so i tried it out, awful. my roommates bought brotherhood and revelations, both are terrible.

feels like i'm playing the exact same game 4 times in a row with some far-fetched bullshit story and monotonous gameplay.

More tidbits. This game is gonna be amazing.

Assassin’s Creed III Changes Weather, Changes Sides, Loses Towers

There's a big Assassin's Creed III feature in the latest issue of Game Informer magazine, and having just thumbed through it, there's some interesting stuff not already revealed in there that's worth pointing out.

About trees. And Generals. And snow. And the great American frontier.

Previous games had a day/night cycle, but ACIII goes one step further and has a seasonal cycle. So during your travels the cities and countryside of the North American colonies will bleed from summer to winter, the latter bringing with it deep snow and complete changes to the animation and capabilities of the game's hero, Connor.

The game features both Boston and New York, both pivotal locations in the War of Independence, but in between them it has something a lot bigger: the "frontier". This stretch of wilderness is 1.5x the size of the entire game world in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, meaning there should be plenty of places to climb trees, shimmy up mountains and hunt wild animals (for furs and money, of course, and the better the kill, the bigger the reward).

Like Ezio's tale, Connor's will run its course over decades. The game kicks off in 1753, with the colonies still happily a possession of the mother country, and will finish in 1783, the same year the Treaty of Paris brought an end to the War of Independence.

Some of the real historical figures already confirmed to be making an appearance in ACIII are George Washington, Benjamin Franklin and, most interestingly, the equally heroic and tragic British-then-American General Charles Lee. The Game Informer story says "a large majority" of characters you meet in the game are actual historical figures, a first for the series.

That awful "tower defence" mode from Revelations is gone. Phew.

Ubisoft says the game will be trying to avoid making the war, and its combatants, a simplistic good vs evil struggle. There'll be bad Americans and good Brits, and the motives of both the Assassin's and Templars will be shown to similarly murky..

Excited for Assassin’s Creed III? So are we, so I hate to be the bearer of potentially bad news, but Ubisoft is now facing a lawsuit that could block the release of Assassin’s Creed III. Science Fiction author John L. Beiswenger has just filed suit against Ubisoft claiming that the Assassin’s Creed franchise infringes on his copyright by ripping off his novel Link. As such, he’s requesting $1 million in damages — $5 million if the judge rules willful infringement — and that all future Assassin’s Creed releases be blocked.
