Ships Ahoy - Assassin's Creed Brotherhood

Ubisoft announces the Windows edition of Assassin's Creed Brotherhood is now available in North America. The standard edition of the game is available at retail or digitally, offering the main game, plus the Abstergo Project Update 1.0 and 2.0, and The Da Vinci Disappearance DLC. There is also a Digital Deluxe Edition that's not in stores, which offers the above as well as two multiplayer characters, two 2 single-player maps, a 1 skin, and additional multimedia content. Here are some new screenshots, and here's word on the game:

The critically acclaimed single-player experience of Assassin’s Creed is back and better than ever as Ezio returns in an epic struggle against the powerful Templar Order. Now a legendary Master Assassin, he must journey into Italy’s greatest city, Rome, center of power, greed and corruption to strike at the heart of the enemy. Defeating the corrupt tyrants entrenched there will require not only strength, but leadership, as Ezio commands an entire Brotherhood that will rally to his side. Only by working together can the Assassins defeat their mortal enemies.

And for the first time, Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood offers a never-before-seen multiplayer layer. Players can help the Templars by using Abstergo to train in the art of Assassination to eliminate the Assassins once and for all. Players can choose from a wide range of unique characters, each with their own signature weapons and assassination techniques, and match their skills against other players from all over the world in different game modes.

I remember things like jumping being a bitch because you had to press a weird key combination.

Uh, in AC you can't manually jump. Traversal is completely automated. You hold down a couple of buttons and your character runs, jumps, climbs, swings, hops and rolls for you. You just have to point him the general direction you want to go. That's one of my biggest gripes with the series. I like having absolute control over my character and AC simply automates too many things.

I can agree it can seem too automated, but I assure you otherwise would be a nightmare. If you just wanted to climb and explore it would be great. But for chasing someone who runs faster than you over the rooftops, without automation you would not be singing the same tune.


If you completely believe it could be done without any automation, please set fourth a design document for a new IP and I'll even do some free animation for it, given that your method works in the design document.
