The Official Assassin's Creed Thread

If there is one tear my hair out frustrating thing it is that the devs forgot it is not 2001 and this isn't GTA 3. Dying if you fall in water? What a pain. There is a mission where you have to kill a guy on a ship, but to get there you have to run down docks full of drunks who push you off, and then jump boat to boat to get to him. One slip and your dead.

I can understand why they did this, so you don't swim cheekily up to your targets but could they not have just made it that if you hit the water you make such a noise you have a few seconds to get out before your 'notice-omiter' goes through the roof?

RARRR :mad::mad::mad:
 
Got this yesterday and loving it so far. Think I'll just mirror Kainz' opinion of it :)

I've had a lockup though. Just before reaching Acre I jumped onto my horse and the game froze..had to power the console off. I'd had some strange music problems a few mins earlier where the ambient music just stopped but I could still hear sound fx. I heard the DVD drive stop just after the music did so I wonder if that was maybe related?

Yeah you'll probably find that it was all loaded up before you got to Acre, so if your drive stopped reading then that will have been why the game froze. Hope it was just a temporary glitch. I've had no problems so far, touch wood *touches wooden desk*.
 
Damn. Was reading Scratch's comments above with the game paused, and then went back to play. Just as I was about to knife a guard in the back for an Informant mission the game hard locked for the first time :p

These drunkards/beggars are really getting on my nerves. I find it good to punch them rather then stealth knife them. It seems the guards aren't bothered if you punch the goits.

OT I know, but SiD, what is your sig pic from?
For some reason I always thought it was from Chain Reaction with Keanu Reeves and that chick from The Mummy, however the girl in the pic looks nothing like her.
 
Getting a bit bored of this now. I killed the first 3 dudes and now all I seem to be able to do is find view points and save villagers :(
 
You may well have a bird of the skies. But your Xbox360 will still fail at some point. Am I not right in saying that there is no definitive Xbox360 SKU capable of resiting the 3RROD? The Falcon chip may well output less heat and require less voltage, but I still would not be surprised if it failed at some point during your posession of said console.


but u does knoe not!
evidence that falcon is failing?
 
Erk, when 'stealth' assassinations go wrong = 20+ guards chasing me through the town + 1 seriously pee'd off templar :o
 
If the buttons I was pressing had some baring on what happens in a fight, I might be able to find the will to continue. :mad:
 
Still enjoying the game but I wish there was a difficulty setting. I feel like I'm not playing as carefully as I should as I can take on any guards no problems without needing hiding places, cover etc.
 
Really wasn't sure whether to buy this one or not, but had nothing to do this weekend so got it anyway.

I'm not really sure how far in I am.. I've just finished my second city. It is definatly very samey, not to mention it seems silly that you can do the assasination missions really easily and don't even really need to do all the other missions in the city. I don't know if there is any point to collecting the flags (other than achivements) but they are really boring.
 
I have Assassin's Creed sat in front of me right now. It's still sealed in it's cellophane wrapping.

I can't decide whether to open and play it or send it back for a refund.

When the mixed reviews came in at the start of the week i cancelled my pre-order but they still sent it out. When it arrived I stuck the return address on it with the intention of posting it back tomorrow (Mon) but so many of you guys seem to be enjoying it I'm now having second thoughts.

/tosses a coin. Heads....hmmmm, best out of three methinks.
