... No I'm not. That's a custom theme. I mean, the grey is an option by default, but that's the only thing default about it...

Smooves nicely already pulled them out: Those are pretty broad strokes. Do these include SMB3, LoZ:LttP, ICO and SotC? ... Yeah... somehow I missed that. That is pretty bad. I thought he was referring to the comments about the PS3 at the top of the page.

No, the animation is part of the point. Assassin's aren't supposed to be mindless killing machines. The animation is SUPPOSED to allow the victim's teammate's to save him if the assassin is stupid and tries to kill someone in the middle of a group.

Actually no, it used to be much more cluttered then that, but I cleaned it up because the clutter bothered me. Everything I launch with any regularity is either pinned to the taskbar (Chrome and Thunderbird) or is on my commonly used programs on my start menu, or in the case of games I use Steam to launch them (even the non-Steam games). The desktop is the least efficient way for me to access programs because then I have to minimize things to get them out of the way. It's faster just to use the start menu/task bar.

I agree. And my understanding of it is that there are no separate multiplayer and singleplayer modes. If you're playing the game and are connected to the internet, you are playing multiplayer. I could be wrong about that though.

Good thing no one did that then.

It depends on the person. It offends me (but I'm not gay, so that doesn't really answer your question...)

I am so bad at assault it's not even funny.

It could be that your connection is interacting weirdly with the netcode of the game, so it's kind of your connection's fault, and kind of not.

My wallpaper changes ever 30 minutes. They're all landscapes/nature photos.

I'm speaking philosophically, keep your "real world" considerations out of this.

Honestly, imo DADT is more discriminatory than an outright ban. At least with an outright ban you're being honest about what you're doing.

That won't happen if you're smart about it though. Honestly though, you probably should listen to minty. He's a better Assassin than I am.

I am very happy with the repeal today of Don't Ask Don't Tell.

I disagree with minty, Knifington, and have skill regen on my assassin build, for whatever that's worth. I'll acknowledge that minty is more knowledgeable about the game than I am, but I still disagree with him on this point.

The only addition I anticipate is Rock Band 3 (360), which because of its nature doesn't really count toward a backlog.

This is for general discussion about the game, the other two are for planning to play the game (and to a lesser extent discussing those matches). If people can stick to the topics it shouldn't be too much of an issue.

Not if you jerkos keep making me play MNC instead.

Alright, so since we seem to now have a group of people who want to play this, I thought it deserved it's own thread. So when are we doing this again?

@Shadow: That's how I was when I bought the game about 2 weeks ago. Once you find a class you like you pick it up really fast if you play with good people who can give you advice. We are those people.

Keep it on topic. Off-topic posts have been hidden. So when are we playing this again? *Edit* - Actually, I created a new topic for PS3 event-planning for this game: http://board.pressxordie.com/index.php?/topic/239-assassins-creed-brotherhood-ps3/ So if we want to talk about when we're playing and stuff, it should go in there. This thread should be for general discussion about the game.

Who makes clans rage-quit? That's right, WE make clans rage-quit.

You guys use AIM? I should really get on that shit, but I don't want to run another client.
