Assassins creed 3

[Trey_Dog650]

Got the game yesterday. My ps3 should be here Wednesday so ill be on this all day!

Alright guys, from what I'm seeing most of you havent finished it yet, so I'm gonna avoid all spoilers. I wanted to beat this for Halo4 tonight, so I spent the last 4 days getting in as much play as possible. I did every side mission, all the frontiersmen, naval missions, captain kidds missions, all the homestead missions, all the assassin recruits, ALLLLLL 100% SYNC as well as all the treasure chests and trinkets. basically everything except the feathers collecting.

I literally just finished the game 5 minutes ago, and let me say this.............................FUCK YOU UBISOFT. just.........fuck you. Youll understand why eventually.

I mean Ill be honest here, this was probably my least favorite AC so far, I didnt particularly like the beginning, then I thought it was great, and then boom, worst AC of all time.

They really messed up a perfectly set up opportunity. AC3 had the most publicity on it so IF they nailed it my god it coulda slingshoted AC up with purchases on the CoD or Halo level

But no, they decided, lets just throw some shit together the night before release and hope it works. They could not have put any LESS effort into the ending even if they tried.

I mean my biggest complaints are the button layout (fighting), not being able to "sprint" yourself or your horse, (unless in frontier/homestead) the Jagers/elite soldiers that can't be countered/killed with melee, the assassin apprentice system was COMPLETELY useless, the lack of any explanation or direction, the hours of cutscenes, the RIDICULOUS objectionals to get 100% on some missions, the shortness of the game, the distance to have to travel to everything and making freerunning obsolete unless on some missions.

I could go on for a while but I won't, just know that Ubisoft really fucked up IMHO, and they better really try on the next AC so that it doesnt turn everyone off from the whole franchise.

The only things that standout that I can say I like are the notoriety system, the counter/killstreak moves, and the naval aspect. Sorry if this isn't how you fell or if it makes you less interested in the game, please finish it as everything UP TO the ending is very good and who knows you might like it,

*********************************************************PS: you definitely wont care ABOUT THE ENDING if you havent played the other AC's.***********

Lol. When you put it like that. Fighting could have more to it but I've been playing batman arkum city recently so it's kind of the same boring three button combo. I did hate the solders with back packs. Got annoying sometimes. The beginning did seem to take a while for what could have been cut down to just a hour or two instead of the 4-5 it took me. The ending was fine for me but it did feel a little unanswered in some parts.

I hate the ending because it made the past games where you play as you-know-who completely useless.......They didn't focus enough on the events between ezio and desmond, or the templar-assassin fight even, it was more a father-son problem and you end up killing everyone easily, quickly, hassle free really. I can't beat assassins creed 2 in 3 days or about 15 hours total playing like this one. It was less like an AC game and more like a revolutionary war fighting game with an ironic character.........I mean you solved no puzzles, no gylphys which I dont mind since glyphys were annoying sometimes, but most of them werent bad, there was no curiosity, everything was answered, nothing was new..................

The game just doesn't have that X-factor like all the other ones do. All 4 were GREAT up until this one, which is a real shame......I am actually going to return it right now when I pick up Halo 4, its that bad to me, not nearly worth $60 in my opinion............It has no replay value, I finished every single thing including the epilogue and even all of the pivots which unlock useless hacks/cheats which prevent ever getting all the achievements and they arent very useful anyway. Theres no challenge to it, no more missions, nothing..................

Yea exactly, there is such a lack of weapons and stuff...........4 pistols total (2 you get automatically), like 8 swords? 3 axes, 3 tomahawks, and anything else? the best sword is the Captain Kidd sword and the putnam pistols anyway, so the shops are useless, and theres like 10 outfits too which you cant see until you buy....

The game was just too lacking period, not enough story, or collectibles, or puzzles, or bonuses, ect.....just pure crap. I took it back to gamestop and got Halo 4 with the money back

Agreed on the horrible ending. Just beat it today and it pissed me off. Lol

[n8ball2013]

I'm still mad lol. If Halo wasn't so damn great I would have popped the trunk on ubisoft

Tomahawk is baller, did you get the french sword or whatever it is? admirals sword? can't remember the name but It's the best one that you can buy from the stores, I at least thought so. I know the best sword you can get is a crafted one, when you get near the end you might be able to try it as long as you have the smith on your homestead.

It's this one:

Lincoln's Sword (Replica) Crafting (Blacksmith Lvl. 4 Silver Ore + Special Iron Ingot)

Damage: 5, Speed: 5, Combo: 5

I also don't understand why the patriots attack you for no reason? I mean they will team up with the British, just to attack me? makes sense.........
