If they do another Italy game and don't include Genoa i'm gonna be pissed.
Hey you listening UBI?? At least do a Genoa map for the multiplayer, the city is perfect for rooftop traversal!

You're doing it wrong... it should be something more like this..
X3.... Yep.. This better be the new design for Assasin Creed III or UBI MONTREAL can GTFO.
I get the feeling he wasn't completely forthcoming with all of the details; since he's the lead art designer, he absolutely has to know what direction the game is taking. Since AC3 is probably a long ways off from being officially announced, it's not like he can speak "definitively" on the subject, if you catch my drift.DaBuddaDa said:

Amir0x said:plz. The story is bullshit Mayan conspiracy garbage. 2012 is the end game of the story as we know it for sure
There's certainly gonna be Mayan 2012 stuff, but in AssBro they hinted at
some dream within a dream kind of stuff.
Surely, they wouldn't just slap Venice, Florence, Forli and Rome on the same disc and call it a day?
This is exactly what I think will happen
I just want to be able to nerd it out in my city, they included Venice but not its mortal enemy, it's teh bias

"Don't look now, here comes the walking Halloween Costume. Shhh, don't turn your head. Let's act shocked!"
"Che la morte ti dia la pace che cercavi. Requiescat in pace."
"HAHHHAHAHAHHAHA"
"Wha---?"
"Seriously dude no offense or anything but I think those fuckers prancing about town in wolf pelts are more subtle than you. Fuck off."
Probably an idea some wouldn't like, but for the next AC "side" game, they should have 3 main cities again, but have each city be in a different time and place with a different character. Let you tackle the places in any order you want, 3 separate stories you have to complete to unlock the final showdown, some random mission as desmond. Maybe even have one of the 3 areas be an italian city again, allow them to reuse some of there assets, and more ezio is always a good thing.
A negative would be having the citys feel smaller overall, and the game would probably be a bit unfocused, but it would allow them to be more experimental.

I'd take a spin off if they are married to their established cosmology, but they could also do a game set entirely in the Desmond "present" and have it take place in Hong Kong, Kowloon is the closest thing to a Syd Mead city in existence.Amir0x said:

I'm wondering how much they'll push the animus stuff. In brotherhood you could see with the training mission and the thruth level that they had been working on some cool ideas, if they expand on that concept (and with Abstergo agents now using animus devices) we could have our futuristic/virtual cities.
And now that i think about it, it would be a missed opportunity not to visit Adam and Eve's world.

No, it indicates the article in the OP don't know wtf they are talking about, because obviously Ubisoft must already be working on AC3 and the setting would already be chosen. The guy talked like he wasn't on AC anymore, and it's possible because art directors change all the same on series. He was the AC2 and ACB art director, so he was probably interviewed for the art exposition event in no way related to a future AC. He just said what he would like, doesn't mean anything.

All I need is a rad set of cities/locations and more special platforming challenges. I try to ignore the story
The modern storyline stuff isn't very good sure, but I actually enjoy all the historical intrigue. It feels unique if nothing else.
Like a lot of people, I agree that Assassin's Creed would've been better as just a regular historical drama with each new character simply discovering the evidence of his ancestor's exploits. But nooooo! This is a video game, it's gotta be loaded with sci-fi fantasy bullshit!

I say its time for a female lead in Assasins Creed III >_<

I'm currently playing Brotherhood and I really like it, but I'm sick of the setting and I can't see how Paris during the French revolution would be any different. The story could be interesting, sure, but the setting itself? I don't know. Nothing beats Firenze.
When was the last time we got a good Tenchu-like game?matics said:

I just like Altair's subdued personality a lot more. He was old-school arrogant while Ezio just seemed like some random fratboy.
My opinion is invalid though because I got sent to the "hospital" last night.
Female lead would be alright, but that design just looks terrible.

I love feudal japan as much as the next guy, but I'd like something a bit new. Anything! France, Russian, Mayan apocalypto craziness, i dunno. just not the prohibition times, or japan, or anything that has been done a thousand times in movies and/or video games.
edit: i have a hard time believing they have not decided already on the topic, though. what would team AC have worked on since finishing AC brotherhood? Are they not planning to cash in on their yearly AC release?

I love Ezio because of his relationship with Da Vinci (there was a fucking fantastic bit of dialogue between them near the end of the latest DLC) and the Christina side missions.Irish said:

Well being flamboyant was the fashion trend of 14th century Italy. If he wore sneaky sneak stuff with minimal clothing, he'd have looked like an odd man out. Besides, you gotta hide all them bombs, knives and Da Vinci's contraptions.Amir0x said:
I love the Italy setting (Venice practically had me in hysterics, number one destination dream), but I'm ready to move out of Europe, unless they did like, a Victorian London era assassin. But so many guns there, so I don't know how it would work.
However, people in this thread talking about Russia are making me increasingly interested in a snowy Russian setting for a third game. That actually sounds really awesome!
I would also be totally cool with

Same here, both would be amazing settings. Italy is tired at this point. As someone mentioned above, only European time period I'd want is Victorian London.

Don't know if it was like some sort of intern project name for Brotherhood, but in a French article from Quebec's web site Rue Frontenac, there's an article talking about the whole Ubisoft / DĂ©silets / THQ debacle.
Inside, there's a quote from a localization member that talks about a project called ''ASSASSIN'S CREED FINAL EPISODE''.
http://www.ruefrontenac.com/elections2011/114-technologie/35635-thq-ubisoft-embauche
In English:
Miss Seconnino works in the same department, but she is ''responsible for the localization of a critical project for Ubisoft's line-up, Assassin's Creed Final Episode''.
Again, dunno if that was the codename for Brotherhood or if it's for that 2011 AC game or what. Whatever it is, I'm intrigued.

Finding a good looking female art for Assassins Creed is hard, either its just a female wearing the same clothes as Altair or Eizo or its an outfit that really show of the boobs.
But if a female lead was ever considered, and all they did was to place a female in the same clothes as Altair or Eizo it would be fail, the wardrobe needs to fit a female in my opinion, sure that particular outfit might be over the top for the actual gameplay, but could work during a seduction scene or whatever.
Here is what I talked about. Female, boring outfit.
Female, well outfit looks kinda the same as before, but again its showing off the boobs again.

The female master assassins in Brohood looked fine to me. And they were actually tasteful.

Whatever this means.
Whatever this means.
After the Desmond saga ends, I think they should take the AC series into an entirely fictional setting with completely original characters. That way they can create some truly fun to explore areas without worrying about sticking to a historical locale. They can have massively tall structures or buildings with odd architecture. It could be a lot of fun to encounter a world and story that has no basis in reality. The developers could come up with some great platforming scenarios and weird twists and turns in the plot.

Crap, if they do choose South America, it should be in Colombia. We're one of the most important countries over here!
Anyway, I wouldn't mind a female assassin, but it would be awkward for Desmond.
EDIT: Spoiler tag fail.

Yeah, that would be a good way for them to do proper sci-fi like someone suggested earlier. Keep the core mechanics and concepts though.Irish said:

A Ninja/Samurai game with the Assassin's Creed engine would be unbelievably amazing. But it's Ubisoft, they're a Western dev, Europe makes more sense for them.
