I love to brawl in this game. I really hope they are still in the game.

That would really suck if true. It's always nice to open a bare handed can of whoop ass. I don't know why developers remove things from their games. Just like when they removed being able to jump left/right off of the wall as you were running up in AC3 and BF. Why the hell did they remove that?!?

3-4-53563d ago

They made enemies strong, and said taking on 5 enemies even with full weapons would be TOO TOUGH.

So fighting that many without weapons would be impossible and pointless.

^ at least that is what I understand from this.

jonatan2213562d ago

This would make sense, he's not a superhero.Can't imagine someone fighting people with armor and beating them to a pulp with bare hands. Maybe one-on-one but that's it.

Like they said in previous interviews, they want him to be stealthier for people who really like that aspect.

ShaqSoda3563d ago

I hope this game has a lot more armor, weapons, etc. Black Flag lacked weapons. I used the same swords the whole game.

TwoMinTy3563d ago

All of these updates sound great, aside from the lack of fists. As someone who doesn't fight barehanded often in AC games, i question the logic of removing it. The thing i'm happiest about is the return of the brotherhood though. The only thing i really did not like about Black Flag was the fact that you don't become an OFFICIAL assassin until near the game's end. One of my favorite things about the Assassin's Creed games has been the theme of brotherhood and the bond you share with other assassin's, so i'm glad to see that return.

paidadvertiser3563d ago

I question the logic of thinking of assassins as brawlers, especially ones with arms as small as Arno's.

XtraTrstrL3563d ago

It would be better to have strong-arm combat also, but even without it, the fact that NPC AI is better and fighting isn't just based on super easy counters - it's still gonna be alot less repetitive and more challenging.

AiirJordann233563d ago

Yea, but I want to fight with my fist tho lol.

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

andy8564d ago (Edited 64d 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

Furesis543d 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.

DarXyde543d 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.

YourMommySpoils543d ago

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

Knightofelemia543d 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.

RaidenBlack543d ago

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

ToddlerBrain543d 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.

staticall543d 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.

anast543d ago

Unity was okay. I prefer Syndicate and Origins.
