Huh thought this topic was about AC3 not a dick waving contest over which country has a better history.

I know. All I said was that I personally don't find American history as interesting as say, classical history. That's it. I am very sorry if I offended anybody.

I just hope that the combat will be more assassin-like and less murderous demon being capable of murdering entire armies with his bare hands, especially when the main character is an assassin. Really, I hope the combat will go for an approach that keeps the main character from being godly powerful when he is supposed to be a human assassin. Despite how much I liked the series, I have yet to buy revelation because of how similar it is to brotherhood and number 2, and I just want something that doesn't feel like squashing ants...

Hopefully, number 3 will be different enough rather than a killing spree. And normally I like killing sprees but the attacks were not very flashy and you could only have so much fun killing defenseless guards. Not to say the series isn't good, but it's getting kind of tiring.

Or in this case more Tenchu less Devil May Cry. I would love if they really went full on stealth gameplay with the series, but I'm not counting on it. Ignoring the many problems of the stealth genre that have existed since the days of Thief The Dark Age, it really seems to go completely against what Ubisoft wants for the series. Still it would be nice if combat at least had a little challenge, not just "figure out what weapon/attack to use on this guy to kill him" but something that made you think how you approached each fight and had to carefully pick how you move and fight.

want to know what nation came up with the name president the US and I guess WW2 happened way before the US was around and the US Civil war saw the first use of Ironclads really people learn history before you shit talk a nation
Yeah, let's not get into a national dick waving contest over an opinion (we all know Britain would win ;)).

But seriously, out of inventing a word, arriving late to WW2 (being taken surprise 2 years into a global war, by Japan) and using ironclads (powered by British invented engines) ... I'm pretty sure even I could find more interesting facts about American history. Abolishment of slavery, helping to give women greater rights and being the only nation to fire an atomic bomb at another country... then firing another one for shits and giggles, being the ones I immediately think of. And I know jack all about American history. Greysoul was expressing an opinion, not shit talking a nation.

I agree completely on the whole stealth thing. Arma instead of CoD is a nice analogy. I suppose a trained assassin WOULD have a combat advantage over barely trained (probably peasantry levied into service)... but not to the level that is possible in the AC games. Maybe something more involving the environment or quick-time button presses rather than pounding "attack" or turtling with "block/counter"

Ugh. If it was a QTE fest I wouldn't even go near the game. I hate QTEs.

Damn, i was late for the Nation debate again! Oh well, at least my fears of saintly American-Assassins purging the tyranical British have been put to rest.

For now :P

I think the Shroud of Turin will be an actual Piece of Eden. In AC2, i think, during those gliths it was mentioned that there were other Pieces of Eden, such as the Sword of Eden and the Staff of Eden (but that was actually in AC2), so im thinking that its a PoE :P
