One concern I have is about aiming. I didn't like how there was really no aiming in previous AC games. When using a gun, you pressed a button and it automatically locked on. For stuff like hunting, I really hope we get to aim manually. Or else it's way too easy.
Went to Gamestop today to pick up my copy of Mass Effect 3 for the PC. Then they asked if I wanted to pre-order AC3. Of course I said yes, then they gave me this very nice collectors tin case!
Note: I put images in spoiler tags as they are quite large - DarkVincent07
Wow@how awesome it looks & how they've already got them in considering the existence of the game has been known for such a short time
Cool stuff:D
Wait, wha. You get it now?! O_O I am so going to preorder it tomorrow thenQuote:

Kinda surprised people are so disappointed with this teaser, I though the deaths were fairly cool actually. Then again I haven't been up on AC all that much.
This games looks like its going to focus on the environment, which is a bit disappointing. AC games are all about the city dont see why they should change it. Not that american cities will be worth visting anyway.
Cool, thanks for adding it :cool: I for one would love it if we got co-op. I've had many friends through the years that love to play co-op games together. Online or side by side on the couch, I actually like co-op better than other multiplayer modes. Probably the only mode I like more is single player campaigns.Quote:

Are you playing them in order? In other words, are the 2 you played AC 1 and 2? If so, Brotherhood is outstanding, that would be a good one to play if you think you've got one more in ya before 3 is out.Quote:

If like us you're a little starved for details on Ubisoft's newly revealed Assassin's Creed 3 you'll be glad to hear a bunch of new gameplay details and some concept artwork have shown up online. Prepare to feast.
The deets come courtesy of Game Informer, which also managed to get its hands on some of the concept art guides that inform the aesthetic, setting, characters, and tone of the game.
http://cdn.medialib.computerandvideo...mb_wide300.jpg According to the mag, Boston, the setting of historical events such as the Boston Tea Party, the Boston Massacre and various sieges with the word 'Boston' in them, will be one of two major cities that players will be able to skulk their way around in AC3.
Since the city has a plentiful amount of tall buildings, churches and docks, this is where the traditional building-scaling acrobatics and leaps of faith will take place.
New York, presumably the other big explorable city in AC3, can be seen in the images below following the Great Fire of New York. The circumstances of this devastating incident still remain a mystery, could the Assassin's have been involved somehow? Probably.
Ubisoft Montreal is keen on exploring the battles of the American Revolution - as indicated by details on its new AnvilNext engine - but will task Connor, the main character of AC3, with ancillary goals.
As shown in the first trailer, and pointed out in our Assassin's Creed 3 dissected, 'tree-running' (see what we did there?) will be a big part of the game since players will be able to explore America's 'vast wilderness'.
AC3 will have a seasonal cycle which - along with the obvious visual changes - will impact gameplay too. Enemies and NPCs will behave differently in winter and frozen pools of water will offer Connor new ways to get around and hunt down his prey.
Much like the Ezio's transition from young Italian whippersnapper to passionately driven assassin in AC2, players will take control of Connor in various stages of his life. Ubisoft's concept image shows the half-English, half-Native American before he joins the Assassin order.
As you've probably guessed by now, important historical figures like Ben Franklin, George Washington and Charles Lee will also make an appearances and it seems like Connor will be interacting with them regularly.
You and me both, I cant seem to resist metal cases when there preorder bonuses (I can resist em when its $20 for the "collectors" and you get a bunch of shit you dont want lol)Quote:

Really seems like they are going all out with this, sounds great!
I'm still not sold on this game as yet. need to see the actual game play and how the stealth is done. And hope that the side mission are not repetitive
My friend stayed there and said he saw some of the craziest shit. I don't know if I believe in ghosts and what not but I want to stay there once to see what it's all about. You from STL?Quote:

Most excellent sir!Quote:

The revealed Cover Art looks pretty B.A. itself.
