Assassin's Creed: Revelations

^yeah, it's way too suck since Desmond is only 27 year old but already look like 40, and one big ass disappoint about his face is: he lost his scar

characters's face changed in this game because of the mo cap technology Ubi using now, it's like L.A Noire, it require actor to perform facial motion capture, but Francisco Randez don't have time for this so Ubi hired some ape to do this.

well... it's okay since facial animation in game is very good. but Desmond look way too old and lost his scar is unacceptable

i just got to the 2nd underground city, please tell me i can freely change city when i want, we could on assassins creed 1, not being able 2 on this would be a slap in the face, i wanna go back to istanbul when i want...

 

and where the f*ck are all the horses at?! -_- on brotherhood they finally let us ride horse back in the city, but on revelation theres no free roam horses????? another slap in the face

[buzbegone]

Istanbul is too small a place for horses.

Anyone just finishing up the story and wanting to keep playing, reserve the 23 minutes afterwards for another activity. The inability the skip the credits is an idiotic move.

[Sunrise Driver]

In Brotherhood half of the map there were empty fields. Istanbul is fully "urban". Plus riding the horse among narrow streets in Rome wasn't fun at all. So I wouldn't call it slap.

[Blackadder.]

 

The inability the skip the credits is an idiotic move.

Oh god that was the worst. And every time you'd thought it'd be near the end it'd start listing some external companies credits..and then another...

 

I didn't even like horses all that much in Brotherhood, they didn't seem fast enough for me. Sure, when going through the inner city parts I wouldn't mind that speed,but in the open fields I think we should have been able to go a bit faster.

 

The ending to Revelations was kind of rubbish in my opinion. Ezio coming face to face with Altair was awesome, and talking to Desmond was cool too, but everything else about it was pretty mediocre. It didn't really tell us all that much that we didn't already know. I feel the only reason Brotherhood was as good as it was was because it had the supporting cast from AC II to follow off from, as well as drawing one of the main villains from it. In comparison AC:R features almost no supporting characters from previous games, and so all the characters end up not being all that interesting, for me at least.

 

Subject 16 pretty much was wasted too.

The game was without a doubt rushed and the story for me felt a bit watered down. I too found it odd that characters like Machiavelli and La Volpe never made an appearance, not even a letter. I guess Ubisoft had to make these characters simply disappear due to their historical deaths conflicting with the storyline. (eg. Caterina Sforza died 1509 while Revelations set in 1511)

[Creed Bratton]

Ubisoft clearly tried to cash in on AC love. This game feels empty. There are three storylines in this one. The Desmond storyline where Ubisoft f*cked up Subject 16. It's a missed opportunity really. the Istanbul storyline that doesn't matter even one bit because it revolves around 3 characters. And the quest for Altair memory seals, which is the only story that actually matters. This should have been an expansion pack for Brotherhood instead of a full game. Nothing in Istanbul feels important. Lack of characters makes the city feel empty and lifeless. There is no atmosphere at all. And the game is too short. Brotherhood at least felt like a full sequel and it was really awesome. There is nothing remarkable about this one besides those Altair memories and the ending. I really like the ending. After finishing the main story I have no desire to continue playing. I played Brotherhood until I got 100%. I don't know why I would want to do the same in Revelations when more than half the stuff I do are the same challenges from Brotherhood. It's boring to do that twice.

 

And there are some really frustrating gameplay elements introduced so that the game would feel more fresh. Those sneak attacks on Ezio are designed to piss you off. They serve only to interrupt your gameplay. They aren't creating any tensions. Whose idea was that anyway? Assassin Dens are stupid because I don't know why I would want to buy everything in Istanbul. It made sense in Brotherhood because I was taking the city away from the Borgia. Bomb crafting is a useless gimmick. The only bomb you're ever gonna need is still the smoke bomb because the game is already too easy. It just makes the inventory screen more frustrating. I guess I have nothing against the hookblade. It doesn't really add anything to the gameplay but at least it isn't taking away anything either.

And getting rid of your Templar awareness is the most frustrating thing in the world. They got rid of wanted posters. Almost every new feature in this game isn't fun at all. Desmond's Journey missions didn't even have to exist. They are useless and completely devoid of all fun. They are all taking away what made AC2 and Brotherhood so much fun. Let's hope AC3 doesn't disappoint.

 

Oh and the new and improved facial animations suck. They basically wanted their game to look more realistic, but they changed the faces of characters we all knew for 3-4 installments in the process. Thank god there aren't many recurring characters in this one. Desmond looks nothing like himself. Ezio is older, so his change of appearance is sort of justified.

 

And what's been said about the credits. Dear god! They last more than the actual story!

Well there is skyrim.... other than that nothing else really lol.

 

As for AC:R, I'll be gettin it soon, really am lookin forward to finishing up Ezio and Altair's storylines. Both of them are really good characters.

its plainly obvious, and how is it spam? pffft!

 

same animations, physics, engine, slightly touched up graphics each time... no actual improvements in gameplay, somethings are still ridiculous to climb, the hookblade makes things quicker but then the game is horribly slow to respond on other easier parts. still the same un challenging easy combat, where enemies wait there turn, still not being able to simply grab someones leg as they climb up a wall. no BRAND NEW GAME standard improvement visually or in the gameplay, only 1 city, no horses (wtf?!) and some bullsh*t small boring underground town. still the same robotic, generic multiplayer. atmosphere online is dead and seems fake what with there being no guards, civilians, activities happening among the people. still no real realism, there should be stray dogs, chickens, goats, all sorts... and real grotty areas. but none of this. crime and gangs should be prevelant but no, not on this game.. infact, apart from to fight the assassins, the guards are useless what with the sheer unrealistic lack of activity in the city. people still act retarded when it comes to fighting, even if a pedestrian starts a fist fight with you, 1 punch and they flee scared, AI is still pathetic.... some people dont even react to tactical bombs... sometimes the game still makes stupid choices, for example killing a random innocent civilian while 2 guards are highlighted, right next to the civilian in a better position. sometimes the game even makes illogical choices while climbing. and even simply running.

 

you call this a new game? pffft. Assassins Creed 1 on steroids at best.

Done in 3 days? What the hell Ubisoft? Seriously I hope AC3 will be much longer, at least like AC2 and also bring us more explanations!

[buzbegone]

Reconstructing an historically accurate 1500s Constantinople is a feat not easily done and I take my hat off to Ubisoft for creating this world which is overlooked in nearly every anti-Revelations rant.

Combat was easily ramped up a notch with those janissaries dodging every move I pulled and taking only a little bit of damage with every counter-attack. Petty things like animals aren't needed for a game like this, think of the purpose they would serve in-game.

The AC flashback missions were great with the improved fighting mechanics. Would you rather just wait for some hapless soldier to attack you before striking him down or be able to take on the offensive? Major exaggeration there.

I agree with you, some areas weren't as thoroughly explored as they could've been but this AC was all about Ezio finding his roots and finishing off his career as an assassin, not innovation. AC2 and Brotherhood filled those gaps up nicely for me and AC3 will do the same so you'll just have to wait.

yes, i am Hoping that AC3 WILL be an actual NEW game, not just some repeat with a different setting / more missions, i understand people want more info / story on Ezio to cover un answered questions, but this trend devs have now days of releasing nothing but expansion packs and passing them off as brand new games, selling them for full price is starting to piss me off.

 

if AC3 looks like a tweaked version of ACR i will not be buying it. fed up of this, games are gonna have to start literally stepping up each time they produce a new release from now on if they want praise from me.

 

i honestly like these games, this is why im so pissed off when they act so lazy with them. this is why im so disappointed, i am not looking at this in a biased way or with rose tinted glasses.

[.Trooper.]

Well apparently it's been in production since Brotherhood or something, so it better be good.

 

Needless to say, I still enjoyed going through revelations - Though it did feel like a slightly upgraded Brotherhood DLC - Much like TBoGT.

[Blackadder.]

A thing that bugged me with Constantinople though was that travelling across rooftops felt kind of slow. A lot of the rooftops seemed just far enough from one another so that Ezio would stagger or end up hanging off the side. I felt Brotherhood was a tad weak in this aspect too with all it's open areas kind of leaving behind what made 1 and 2 so great (in my opinion).

[-Bruce-]

Ezio is much older in this game, so im not surprised he can't jump great distances as good as in previous games. Seems realistic imo.

With the way Revelations ended, it doesn't really seem like Desmond is going to be sitting round in an Animus much. Like he says, he knows what they need to do. I imagine AC3 will require a complete overhaul. We'll see, I guess. Looking forward to seeing what they've got coming. Shouldn't be long either.

[Cosmic Gypsy]

best thing about this game? recruiting / training assassins. although it makes no sense the way they DONT level up when you call them out during free roam. they can ONLY level up by sending them on missions, pretty stupid.

 

EDIT : still not being able to properly aim my gun / cross bow is f*cking pathetic. and STILL not being able to kill civilians after completeing the game is equally pathetic, they allowed this on AC1, but not on this -_-. its especially retarded when the game makes illogical choices and kills civilians accidently even though u are aimed at guards and clearly want to kill them.

 

the pause menu even takes time to come up, it should be instant like 99% of games, but its so ridiculous that it actually takes time to load. why even bother making a pause menu elaborate enough that it takes time to load.

I agree. One of the only thing that really bothers me about AC.

 

Seems like with each game, the series just gets better. Don't understand how people are hating on Revelations.

im 1 of the so called "haters" although i dont consider it hate, i consider it disappointment. which is understandable when you actually take a step back and look at how much its improved overall since Assassins Creed 1 (not much at al)

 

but i really look foward to AC3 (maybe foolishly) i see the title 3 as a hint that its actually going to be a real New game. instead of a title like brotherhood / revelations.

 

EDIT : when i look at GTA V or BF3 its like a huge breath of fresh air, its a massive step up, i see improvement, progress and most i see the EFFORT gone into it. all integral fundemental important things games like uncharted, assassins creed, call of duty and far 2 many others SERIOUSLY LACK. and by the way, i like / play both uncharted and assassins creed. so im not hating.

The Ancestor Character Pack DLC has been released.

 

To celebrate this epic occasion, we've also added a whole bunch of new avatar items in the Xbox Live Marketplace, showing off the new additions to the Multiplayer line-up

I was just wondering, maybe AC:III is set in Persia?

Going around Persepolis would be quite fun. Also, if you check the ACWiki you'll see that the first recorded use of the Hidden Blade was in Persia.
