Seriously? That's so cool.

dbjj120884657d ago

I wonder how deep it'll go. Will it just be pre-set animations or will you be able to customize more explicitly?

TenSteps4657d ago

I'd expect pre-set animations but hey I don't work for Ubisoft

Raven_Nomad4657d ago (Edited 4657d ago )

Considering they shovel out one of these titles every year, it's probably a list of pre set animations that you get to choose from.

I guess Ubisoft is taking to the way EA does things. Soon they will just start slapping the year on the box. Assassins Creed 11, 12, 13 ect....

*Edit*
See I like to point out how hypocritical everyone here is. It's perfectly fine for Ubisoft to crank out a new Assassins Creed game every year but not Activision with COD?

Ubi isn't changing the engine, why don't we flip out like we do with COD?

As for the EA thing, are you serious? EA cranks out the most garbage each and every year. Same sports games, same everything. Slap an 11 or 12 on it and then take down the online servers for the previous years game, so it forces people to buy the current one.....

I love the hypocrisy here...lol

Brotherhood is amazing in every aspect. Can't wait for the next AC and then again the next.

Lord_Sloth4657d ago

Not until CoD starts slapping the quarters on theirs.

Ser4657d ago

I think you have EA confused with Activision.

On topic: Custom kill animations? Yeah, that sounds cool and all, but please fix that horrible matchmaking first.

TenSteps4657d ago

Didn't they already fixed it with Animus 2.0 I could always find a lag free match.

PirateThom4657d ago

Assassin's Creed has been consistantly improving. Even ignoring multiplayer in Brotherhood, there was a huge improvement to the main game.

If Ubisoft can produce quality titles with decent improvements, fair enough.

It's when quality becomes an issue, like with CoD, that it becomes a problem.

PhantomT14124657d ago (Edited 4657d ago )

I must admit as an AC fan, I don't like the way Ubi's taking the Assassin's Creed production to.
But up until now, they've been improving a lot with each iteration and giving massive contents unlike Call of Duty with short SP campaign and a pretty much identical multiplayer.
And Revelations seems to look good too. They have already far more new features announced than MW3: hookblade and its new movements, bomb crafting, Assassin's Den, this customizable animations, alternative gameplay with Desmond's memories, random events...

I'm gonna make mine a quick stab to the crotch, and then when the enemy is keeling over, a snap of the neck.

I'll call it, The Dickless Twist!

This should be interesting.

When will you decommission this new one? I’m only asking so I can be happier by not buying it at full price.

The dog Chorizo from FAR CRY 6 has wheelchair legs, so is hardly a decommissioned pet. In fact very useful for digging up dirt.

Historic Eras that Video Games Need to Explore

Xfire writes "Worldbuilding is a crucial part of any story. It's not an easy task to create a believable setting with its own set of rules, customs, traditions and political affiliations and then weave a story into the said setting. Luckily, storytellers and video game writers don't always need to create complex settings when we've got history books as thick as Big Chungus.

Historical eras make a fabulous setting for video games. They've already got the world-building nailed, complete with their own set of rules, customs, traditions and political affiliations. Honestly, I don't think I need to justify the fact that historical eras make an amazing setting for video games. If you don't believe me, just go ahead and play the Ghost of Tsushima or any of the Assassin's Creed games."

sourOG1129d ago

The first crusade would be pretty sweet. I’d probably enjoy any of those on your list if they were done respectfully. Like not some dork in Portland making a Russian Revolution game.

343_Guilty_Spark1127d ago

Benin Empire, Far East, Central America. Games are pretty biased toward Europe, North America, and the Middle East. There is a very big world out there.

Inverno1367d ago
