I'm really just looking forward to replaying Liberation, the better of the two AC3 games. I couldn't possibly be less excited to play as Haythem for four sequences again.
Holy fucking hell, my eyes are literally going to melt out of my skull with this in HDR.
Wait, does having ACIII on uPlay nets you the remastered version free of charge?Ubisoft changed the games cover on Uplay a few days ago:
I'm not excusing Ubi for their (perhaps deliberate) poor choice of wording, and I haven't played 3 myself, but that video seems to suggest that the original double "assassination" is a high profile move and not a stealth move. Perhaps not that massive of a change, but a welcome one nevertheless.
In the monthly Odyessy update, they go over more details and show some additional footage. The game looks really nice and I love the improvements. Also, no "piss" filter over the game which people were complaining about. Of course, real fans of series would have known it was just time of day.
I'm assuming that is what they meant. Double assassinations sent the entire British army after you. Also it was kinda difficult to pull off.
EDIT: Watching the part about the outfits again, it looks like Shay's Templar outfit is in the game. It's the right of Bayek's.

Yeah, it's weird as it's clear that the game is clearly going for a father and son angle but the game does such a poor job of it.
Yeah I saw. Hopefully they'll have it run better by launch.
This reminds me:
Why the he'll doesn't every game on Switch allow you to use the touchscreen for menus?

-You couldn't free-aim until AC4. If you tried to free aim in AC3 it was hella wonky as it would always try to lock onto a target
-I assume they actually mean bushes this time instead of.....well.....the grass that the ps3/360 was capable of rendering. As they're adding more npcs and foliage.
Weird for them to point out double assassinations as those already exist in the game.
I'm guessing they added all the improvements made in AC4/Rogue to AC3.
EDIT:
As an aside, i'm glad Ubi isn't forgetting that the AC movie has one of the best outfits in the series.
I only clicked on the blog post to check if they changed the inventory system and left disappointed.
Got this coming via the Odyssey season pass. Quite enjoyed III, so will be great to replay it. And as it comes with Liberations, i'll probably give that a bash first before going onto III
that's how the game was running on switch in the february direct.Bring it!
That would be really weird for them not to considering that AC:Rogue has an Arno outfit.
I'm getting this as part of my Ultimate Edition Odyssey purchase, and I distinctly remember my personal trajectory as an Assassin's Creed fan becoming negative after dual disappointment in Revelations and 3. That said, I did always want to like those games, so since I'll be getting it anyway, I'm open to revisiting it with a fresh outlook. Glad to see there's some notable gameplay improvements.
I would've thought that was direct feed Switch footage but it's missing that brown cloud surrounding the entire screen like he saw on the direct
Odyssey' Gold Edition just became very interesting for me, might pick it to replay ACIII later.
Oh it was? Haven't played 3 myself but the immediate sequel, Black Flag, pulled stealth assassinations.
It's a shame they never implemented homestead in the sequels. It was amazing having that community, building it, watching them grow and so forth.
Can you still kill cats and Hang people? Like you can literally lynch redcoats from what I remember. I didn't finish the game tho. I might finish it on PS4 tho.
Hopefully not the former but definitely can still do the latter.
Ok so just to clarify the changes:
-You could only double assassinate while running, not standing still unless you had the high profile button pressed, this change makes it a low profile move like in AC4/Rogue
-You could only whistle from around a corner, but not a bale of hay/leaves or grass like in AC4/Rogue

-You could only whistle from around a corner, but not a bale of hay/leaves or grass like in AC4/Rogue
I remember being quite shocked that you were able to kill cats and dogs. I know they ended up removing that for AC4.
You could only kill a few tho. And then the game would end.
