They weren't kidding with the enormous crowds part. And you can play 4 player co-op too. Something past AC's never did... I swear I would like a certain person to comment on this info and hear his opinion with all this latest information out.

But I'm sure he'll stay quiet.

hello123476d ago (Edited 3476d ago )

I agree you can see the city has more people compared to previous games. You can see now why Ubisoft was struggling with the AI part of the game.

UltimateMaster3475d ago (Edited 3475d ago )

Holy S***, look at that frame rate.
WTF is that glitch at 3:50?
New Assassin ability now allows you to blend through walls, literally.

bixxel3475d ago

Okay.My ousin has the game.And he says there's a section that has an unbelievably HUGE crowd.And they're not static.Like realistic crowds.He says it felt crazy while doing a leap of faith during that section.

moegooner883476d ago

Watching this can't help but feel been there, done that, and I am a huge AC fan.

bixxel3475d ago

This game will beat AC2 for once!

Conzul3475d ago

Not really a chance of it beating AC2.

Every AC, the story and characters get more and more watered down. The soundtrack gets watered down. The combat gets simplified. Everything gets more accessible.

AC1 was the best. Not even AC2.

OMG I WOULD LOVE A REMASTER OF AC1. Maybe in AC4 engine.

Snookies123476d ago

Same here, I mean shoot I have the AC logo tattooed on me. I mean, it's really pretty, lots of crowds, and big... But, it still kinda feels the same as the rest from what I've seen. I'll no doubt play it at some point, I'm just not sure what they can do to make it feel different. You know, aside from the whole 'feudal Japan' thing they seem to want to stay clear of for some reason. I think that would be a big change in scenery and people, and something like that could do wonders to refresh the players that have AC fatigue.

Sashamaz3476d ago

Well you can't expect Assassins creed to suddenly turn into uncharted or tomb raider into halo, if they changed this game to something else then it wouldn't be Assassins creed, that is the whole point of a sequel. How many games can you name that changed from the one before? I buy assassin games because they offer a type of experience that is not found in other games and when I want change I simply play another game.

Snookies123476d ago

@Sashamaz - I'm not asking for a drastic change, just enough to make the experience feel new again. As I said, I'm not entirely sure how they can go about doing that without changing things too much, but... Well, I've just found myself being a little bored of AC lately. Although I had a lot of fun with Black Flag.

starchild3475d ago

If the changes they are bringing with Unity aren't drastic enough for you I doubt any reasonable change would be enough for you. Just play something else. They would literally have to change Assassin's Creed into a different game to satisfy some of you.

The improvements they have made to the traversal mechanics, the combat, the mission structure, the customization, the presentation, and the stealth mechanics feel dramatic to me. Most series don't see changes or improvements this significant. It seems quite fresh to me.

Snookies123475d ago (Edited 3475d ago )

@starchild - I think you're missing my point. It's not about gameplay changes. It's about the scenery, and cultures themselves. I already stated above that I'm not asking for drastic changes. So I'm not sure why you're implying that reasonable changes wouldn't be enough for people like me. I'm tired of the same looking cities/towns every AC game. I want something visually different. Black Flag was a great way to change things up visually, as you were at sea for a lot of that game. If we had some more modern day Assassin's Creed games, or something set in a more Asian part of the world... Egypt could be cool too, or a Roman setting. Just something that changes things up, that's all I really want.

starchild3475d ago

Ok, I misunderstood you. If you had been talking about gameplay changes I was finding it hard to understand how the changes they have made wouldn't seem enough.

But in terms of scenery I agree with you. I'm getting tired of the European type cities. We need something new that feels more exotic or at least different for the series. So, yeah, sorry, I actually completely agree with you.

Snookies123475d ago

@starchild - No worries, I probably could have worded my slight complaints a bit better lol. My fatigue does rest solely with the scenery. The gameplay, and stories of the Assassin's Creed world are still very interesting for me personally. I just typically find that it's hard to keep interest, when the style of the cities/towns are nearly the same as the last several games. It's why I mentioned feudal Japan, Egypt, and the Roman empire periods of time. They all seem like they could be a great way to change things up visually. And, they would certainly renew my excitement in starting a new AC game.

StormLegend3476d ago

I agree.. I just can't seem to get excited for this either...

True_Samurai3476d ago

In coop do all players have the same faces?

True_Samurai3476d ago

Disagrees for asking a simple question? Lol ok

ion533475d ago

I think it means no. No they don't. It's randomised

StormLegend3476d ago

The graphics don't look that good. Idk about buying this.. I'll just get Far Cry 4 or something......

Geekman3476d ago (Edited 3476d ago )

Ok first of all, yes they do look good. They look GREAT.

Second off, how is that a reason not to buy the game?

Third off, if you were gonna buy nothing but cross gen titles like Far Cry, why did you get a Ps4!?

aceitman3476d ago

@geekman he didn't mention ps4 r u trolling or just assumed

starchild3475d ago

You're blind. This is one of the best looking games so far. It has more advanced graphics than Far Cry 4 that's for sure.

I Played Assassin’s Creed Unity Almost 10 Years Later. It’s (Kinda) Spectacular

Do the NPCs still randomly levitate every now and then? Even years later I noticed they hadn't patched that out

andy8562d ago (Edited 62d ago )

Honestly I loved the PS4 ACs. I'd love next gen ports of Black Flag, Unity and Syndicate

Five small but brilliant maps in games

Small video game maps that are packed with things to do are better than huge but empty maps. Here are five small but brilliant maps in games.

Why Assassin’s Creed Unity remains one of the best games in the series

GF365: "Since the first Assassin’s Creed game, there have been entries up until now. There are more than a few titles that are far from an ideal stealth game. Let’s discuss why 2014’s Assassin’s Creed Unity is one of the best games in the series."

Glitchy as hell and flat story, nah this aint it. AC2, brotherhood and 4 were amazing games in every respective

Furesis540d ago

Yeah i would say brotherhood and 4 were the best for me. I have not played the new ones and Unity was my last one. Seems like i made a good choice.

DarXyde540d ago

I gave up after Revelations. Just couldn't bring myself to care anymore and I got burned out of the gameplay.

Definitely agree on 2 and Brotherhood though. Great games.

YourMommySpoils540d ago

A Ubisoft AC game that's not glitchy? That will be the day.

Knightofelemia541d ago

After constant glitches Arno being boring nah I am good I skipped Unity. I will always like the Ezio trilogy, Black Flag, Rogue, Odyssey, Syndicate. I use to love the franchise but now it feels stale and boring. But my list of favorite entries into the franchise will vary from other players favorite entries.

RaidenBlack540d ago

Odyssey is a really well-made RPG game ... but it ain't a proper AC game, even though its part of the lore

ToddlerBrain540d ago

It’s funny because, at launch, it was universally panned for being unplayable. It’s a great game that holds up today. I’m glad they fixed it.

staticall540d ago

The only good things i remember from Unity are pretty graphics and really good descending mechanics (even though it sometimes didn't make much sense, when your character can drop down from like 10 meter height onto a flagpole perfectly).

Game is glitchy to this day, i was playing in it years after the release date (with all the DLCs) and it's still broken. You had to reload missions too often for my taste (characters do not spawn, you fall through the floor, getting stuck in falling/sitting/aiming animation, hidden blade stop working, assassination target running away at the start of the mission). Story was meh, searching for all the treasures wasn't enjoyable at all. Coop was pretty much useless, i've beaten every coop mission in solo. Helix rifts were awful as well.

Not saying i hate this game or anything, but it got too many problems.

Assassin's Creed (i know it's a controversial opinion) and Assassin's Creed 2 are still great to this day.

anast540d ago

Unity was okay. I prefer Syndicate and Origins.
