[QUOTE=Marden;38353989]Can you dye other outfits or just the standard assassin uniform?[/QUOTE] Just the Standard.
What are the pros and cons of this game, over the earlier ones, in your opinions?

[QUOTE=RocketRacer;38359376]I should do the free-the-city ones, or something else?[/QUOTE] I don't know, I just did everything available on my map before I went on to story missions so I never had a problem getting homestead missions.

Sequence 9 spoilers: [sp]At first, when Connor and Haytem started to talk, I started to think that all this deal is a trap. And I still do think so, but I haven't got far from this moment yet. I still think that it is a trap, and this is not gonna end good...[/sp]

what's the "desecrate public property to find the five magic shits" outfit this time
I'm thinking whether or not to buy this game, or get brotherhood and revelations and do those, as I have not purchased them not know anything about their stories.
[QUOTE=ClarkWasHere;38362454]I'm thinking whether or not to buy this game, or get brotherhood and revelations and do those, as I have not purchased them not know anything about their stories.[/QUOTE] Get brotherhood/revelations now. Get AC3 on black friday.

Back to the Boshin War which people have suggested, think about it. It's a kickass idea. You have a time when modern technology and old technology collided, when European and American influence was dilluting Japanese culture, when either side could be good or bad. It'd open up tons of choices to the character, and being able to use a gatling gun, katana, and shotgun all in one battle would be pretty... kickass.
Except Katana's are a really stupid weapon in my opinion. I really just hate them. And that's not even solely based on the groups that having such a weapon would attract, I really just don't like them as swords. I just find them generally ugly and pointless. Give me a broadsword or rapier anyday.

Welp I guess it's time to start opening up those spoiler tags. Amazon decided that they can't ship AC3 to Lithuania for no reason at all. They didn't email, didn't phone, nothing. I got my dad to email them, THEN they said that apparently they have issues sending it here so it's an no-go. Warfighter - sent no problem although they're actually only now going to send it AFTER we had to get informed of this ourselves. And apparently it's not a weight issue either. What mostly ticks me off is that 1) the money from my last 6 birthdays was spent on this. 2) it was a PREODER and the information came only now.
[QUOTE=TheMercWithAMouth;38339691]IIRC You can get Altairs outfit if you get 100% on all of the missions.[/QUOTE] Saw a video of it, no cloth physics what so ever.
IGN made a video on all the outfits, and how to get them [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSE-Q5IyoFY&feature=g-u-u[/url]
[QUOTE=Jackald;38370689]I have this pre-ordered from Zavvi on PC, but I played the 360 version round a friend's flat. Holy fucking shit the framerate is nigh-on unplayable. How the hell is such a low framerate acceptable?[/QUOTE] Sounds like an issue with your friends xbox, framerate obviously lowers at some points but is no where near unplayable for me
The lowest framerate I had was around 10ish (opening slide locked gates in the underground tunnels). That's still very much playable.
Oh fuck deluxe edition here I come
I'm playing ACIII on Xbox 360 and have [I]really rare[/I] framerate drops and they don't hurt my gameplay at all. Almost freed up one more Boston area to get a new recruit, then attack a fort. What benefits I'll get from "acquiring" it? I think of playing Revelations sometime, if it doesn't have that much of stealth...

Is that common? Also, when do they have much stealth anyway? Besides the occasional tail a guard or hide for 10 minutes in a haystack so your target walks by, I can't think of any.

About Revelations: I've read that ACIII has a whole new combat system in compartment with others AC's. Does it really has a big difference and I'll be confused when trying to fight, or it doesn't really has a [B]big[/B] difference?

I'd say the combat system it's most common to is Brotherhood, where after executing an enemy, you could go after another enemy before finishing your execution, and then execute him instantly, and it could go on forever if you pick off the right people (I'm not sure if they carried it over to Rev, it probably did). After getting used to the AC2 system, it really just took 2 or 3 fights until I could figure out how to use it effectively in large groups. Having not played AC3, but watching my friend get into a few big fights for a while, I'd say it's a bit different but it looks like a very intuitive system, both for people who are used to previous games or are new to it.
They basically made it easier, but made it so enemy variety forces you to change things up from time to time. instead of holding the right trigger and pressing x, you press b, then x. [editline]8th November 2012[/editline] But..I don't know. Something about the combat doesn't feel as satisfying. [editline]8th November 2012[/editline] Like, I guess there's not really any struggle since you can finish every fight in less than 30 seconds.
The traditional colonial assassin outfit is the coolest. Why is it preorder only? Same with the Captain of the Aquila outfit. That's dumb
I think my favourite outfit is the default with Baltimore dye. I hope the hood always down is a bug and they fix it when they release it on PC. Also I watched a combat video and it's very clear the animation for short weapon was based on an axe. Hard to imagine why the best short weapon is a dagger.
