is it true that there is a sequel in the works, one that is set in a time period later than that of the last game? perhaps set in modern day? i liked ac, it was fun, although it only lasted so long. it has been some time since i played it, i imagine i would find some pleasure in playing it for another few hours.

to tell the truth i actually enjoyed the game.. and i will get the next installment.. but i think no, if it was less repetitive people would just keep complaining about the story or find something new to nitpick on.. i will say that it could have been a lot better, but i did not mind it as it was..

Yeah it would be better but there was some serious flaws in that game besides how repetitive it is. But that is probably the biggest mistake.

It was never repetitive. Sure there are limited missions but each mission gives you unique new information which is interesting. Combat was really good and you could do a lot of things, sometimes it was a chore but that's when you aren't really in the mood to fight.

I thought it was an ok game. I did not mind the repetitive nature of the gameplay but some other things made the game less appealing to me.

I liked the game, but it got old real fast. I also don't like lazy AI programmers who ONLY program AI to come after you and only you. Best examples, beggers and the mentally insane. They don't bother with any of the other hundreds of people there, ONLY YOU.

Worlds that seem "alive" when there's stuff going on around you that has nothing to do with you is great for a game like this. It's an entire world revolved around the character. That should be a thing of the past with sandbox games.

i would consider it a great game anyway, not the best i played or anything. i did get a little bored in the middle of the same thing, but once the story started moving it seemed to be worth it, i prefered the assassination bits much better than the finding the target stuff (my gf liked it otherway round) so i guess its all a matter of taste in gameplay. but still was a good game.

I thought it was great as it was. I mean, there was some awesome combat sequences and an intriguing story that finally unravelled as you played.

I consider it a great game in all aspects except for the repetitive missions and thin storyline. If all sanbox games had the graphics, physics, control and animationsas assassins creed, this world would be a much better place. ;)

It was already a great game. The only issue that I had was the fact that they never gave you that cross bow that they showed you in the opening scene.

Yup, and the first game has completely turned me off from any future AC installments.

It was flawed, but I already think it is a great game. The second one, I hope, will improve upon the few flaws that it had.

I liked the game it was so fun, but it was repetitive. I got sick of climbing like 1000 toweers and doing the same 4 types of missions over and over again, some of which were really dumb like the eavesdrop mission, all you do is press a button. Some of the assassination missions were dumb cause it you were found out by the guards you would just end up hacking through every guard in the city until you killed the right guy. I thought the sci-fi twist on the story was pretty stupid to.

This is a strange game for me. I agree with what everyone says, the AI is lazy, the missions are repetitive, its too short and its almost impossible to assassinate anyoneand get out without being seen,yet I still love this game.

I think if it wernt for the great story that really did captivate me, I just wanted to know what they were up to in that science lab, and the (in my opinion) amazing combat system, it would be a fail - but its not.

I personally cant wait for the next one, as long as they make it less repetitive and tie up the loose ends with the cliff hangar ending from the first one then I'll definatly be buying it on release day.

AC was my first ps3 game. And I really felt it was a 'next-gen' game at the time, nice sorta open world, with great graphics and great number of NPC just moving around. Although I never really considered it repetitive, if it had draged on in the same premise as it did (do so and so quite mediocre missions to get to do an assassination), it might have been too much. The two major things i disliked about the game were the combat and the ending. I thought it had an alright story, it's what mainly made me play the game, but to end it like it did really frustrated me, and it wouldn't be beyond me if they did the same to a sequel, so with that in mind, i might not get the sequel. I also found the combat system rather wanting. From what i remember (this was a while ago), I found myself combat wise to mostly be blocking-blocking-blocking then hit when there's an opening. Which is fine with one person, but against so many people around, became irritating.

Now i know the main point was stealth, but i even found that wanting. So as is, I'm most likely not gonna get the sequel. If reviews favour the game in those respects above, then I may consider getting it, but as is...not really.

I couldn't agree more.

I liked the game a lot but the ending was one of the worst ever.

Lets just say if Ubisoft makes AC2 then I wont get it

It seems they have forgotten how to make games (Farcry2 and AC)

Granted both of those games have great visuals, and decent settings/background stories

the game for both was horrible and it really showed a lack of imagination and effort, quality games arent shallow and dont recycle their own ideas over and over and over and over...

I liked the graphics and the animation. Alot of aspects where executed greatly but i did get annoyed at all the beggers. The controls of the horse and the animations where some of the best i've ever seen in a game. The story bored me quite a bit though and when i got to the ending i was just ticked that i put the time into the game. So yes i think with more mission variety or tasks the game would have been even better but they needed to give more life to the rest of the world.

i hated it when i got it, so repetitive, i played it for a few hours and didnt touch it for months, then in feburary right before killzone came out, i started playing it again and had a blast, its a great game, but if im going to purchase the sequel some serious issues have to be taken care of.

I liked it. If they add more variety with the gameplay and objectives and fix the terrible framerate, I'll pick up the second one without a doubt.
