madbassman39 Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 It looks great, but it also looks like they got rid of the looting of the dead bodies that you could do in 2. I liked looting the bodies even if it was just for smokebombs, poison and other things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faiblesse Des Sens Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 I never did it since it was so fucking easy to be stacked with everything at all times. Not to mention it doesn't make sense to even find that stuff on bodies besides money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 Yeah, I never looted bodies either. It was too time consuming for how little you got out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFlyingGerbil Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 Looting bodies is how get all the medicine I use for the whole game. I know it's cheap to buy but I have a pathological inability to purchase stuff in game I can get for free like potions in RPGs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 Yeah I rarely did it until Revelations where you could get all sorts of stuff off looted bodies (but then again most of you lot never used bombs). Have they explicitly stated that looting isn't in it? I know most of new stuff in the ACII spin-offs are dropped like bombs, tower defense, hook blades etc, hence needing to point out that assassin groupies are back (from Brotherhood), but Looting came in on ACII.

madbassman39 Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 I don't think they have said it won't return but in the video they said no mOre health potions, and when Connor stood over a body the option wasn't there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot Heart Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 I get the feeling you will be able to 'loot' dead animals, so same might apply to dead bodies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 No more health potions? Do you just have to visit a doctor or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faiblesse Des Sens Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 You didn't hear? They took inspiration from roguelikes and made it perma-death. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 They implied there would be ways to regenerate outside of combat, they just don't want you to regen while in combat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomTervo Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Yeah, it's simply regen that won't be mid-combat. About health potions all he said was 'there'll be no more health potions mid-combat or anything' but he said this deferentially in a list; suggesting health potions won't be around at all. Which I like. But I'm not sure how I feel about regenerating health. As long as health is an actual issue in the game I'll be happy. This looks actually pretty great. Surprisingly.

Dee Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Awright, so there's a trailer out encompassing ANVILnext, which shows Connor not only killing the European colonist soldiers, but American soldiers as well. Ha! Take that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Well that took them long enough. I don't get what was so hard, unless they assume "put it in a tech video, no one watches tech videos". Shame for a engine tech video they still had the enemies bodies sliding through each other. (And all that Gamestop content they're working on during the games certification process....).

Thursday Next Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Glad to see more balance and some mention of the character's internal conflict. As for the engine, I thought the animation on things not Connor looked a little rough around the edges tbh, a good example being right at the start when the wolves change direction and just sort of pivot. Lo-res-ness of the video didn't exactly help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorgiShinobi Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Well that took them long enough. I don't get what was so hard, unless they assume "put it in a tech video, no one watches tech videos". Unless you're subscribed to Machinima's YouTube like I am, where I saw this at first. Anything labeled "Assassin's Creed 3 blah blah" is going to draw attention if you ask me. Didn't know what AnvilNext was, but I guess that's the point of the video since it's the AnvilNext Trailer.

Maritan Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 What I don't undertand is why didn't they use Dunia engine. It looked much more impressive than Anvil in 2008 and Far Cry 2 even now looks fantastic on PC. And yeah, as Dean said, took them long enough.

Johnny Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 Well, for one, Far Cry 2 doesn't even run on a halfway playable framerate on my PC. Assassin's Creed games, however, run pretty much flawlessly. And they still look gorgeous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maritan Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 (edited) Well, for one, Far Cry 2 doesn't even run on a halfway playable framerate on my PC. Assassin's Creed games, however, run pretty much flawlessly. And they still look gorgeous. Both games run in 60-90 fps on my PC and AC2(installed brotherhood to test it out) looks unimpressive in 2012. AC3 looks the same, which means crap shadows, textures and vegetation. edit: just played a little, actually looks nice. But I still think it's not as impressive as Dunia Engine.

That doesn't make me more likely to get the PS3 version, it makes me less likely to buy the game at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 Capitalism in action I'll be getting ps3 version anyway but I doubt it will be much to write home about and likely 360 and PC will get it eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
