Assasin's creed 2

Yeah, but if you start to gallop they should still take notice, lets not get too carried away with making it easy on people. Even if you weren't wearing the white hooded thing and have swords strapped to you, a galloping horse makes you take notice, they'd still try to question why you're in such a hurry.miracleofsound said:
But I would like to be able to run guards down and trample them without the horse falling over, so I can take a couple out and then jump off and deal with the rest. A big sword fight isn't supposed to be the first option, but if I don't feel like sneaking in the front gate it should still be an option, it should just be harder like it is now, but not impossible in case I want some extra challenge/excitment.
Haha alot of the comments Í'm reading here completely take me back to the game; the beggers, the lepers, the stupid horseriding.

I think AC was a good game, but it SOOOoooooo pulled the punch. Hrmmmmmm?!!? Are the crusades kinda like the war in Iraq?!?!? Maybe?!?!?! Maybe most probably not?!?! Wait!?! Are monks condoning your killing to end this petty war between peoples?!?!? Whos profiting from these wars?!!?, are they conspriring against the warring factions!?!?!?!
Are the Christains the evil ones?!?!!?!?!?!?!!? The Papacy trying to gain absolute power by fighting for a "holy land", that they may or may not acutally deem holy?!?!!?!?!?
It would be a real political game.
Hated how the assasian who was trained in the art of killing 50 people are once and saved a pregant woman, and deliver her child, can't swim.
I hope in the new one you use the element of diguise more.

1. Lose the NPC's who attack you but you can't kill. If a drunk shoves you, I should be allowed to lamp him in the face. If a beggar gets clingy, I should be allowed to gently shove her off at least.
2. If it's set in Japan, I better get to be a fucking Ninja for the Yakuza (who were ORIGINALLY a group that protected the people from the rebels/government during the period of upheaval). Then again, setting it during the Sengoku period would also mean alot of fun too.
3. If it's in revolutionary france, I demand poofy trousers and firearms.

Required some digging but according to Kotaku [http://kotaku.com/5137173/assassins-creed-2-new-ghost-recon-red-steel-2-coming-from-ubisoft]
in the 09-10 Fiscal year which starts in April,
"Among the games will be Assassin's Creed 2, Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Conviction, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon and Anno. The company also plans to release three new brands, including I Am Alive, four movie games, including Avatar and a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and tons more games ending in the letter Z."
I can't dovetail that quote very easily

Frankly, if it has ANYTHING to do with ninjas, I won't play it. The charm of Assassin's Creed was its unique setting (unique being the polar opposite of ninjas). Anyone with a BIT of knowledge about the historical Hashshashin (the Ismaili Nizari), Hassan Bin Sabbah, the true Masyaf, and the Crusades, can find tons of historical nudges in the game that let you know precisely WHEN it is set.
For AC2, I'd like to be able to at least punch a drunk, leper, or beggar in the stomach so that they will at least double over and let me continue. Then, make it so that fighting is infuriatingly hard. The true Assassins/Hashshashin often didn't fight, preferring to escape to safety. In Assassin's Creed it's so easy to pull off the flashy counters and flashier combos that there really was no reason NOT to fight.

What was wrong with the horseriding? Are you mad?
Well alright then let me explain if you ride your horse in normal speed past a guard the will freak and start attacking you, but if you ride just a fraction slower they wont mind you at all.

Still speculative and at this stage, an "informed" rumor. I think it's would be a brilliant setting for Assassin's gameplay.
