"Today, the first single-player addon for Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood was released, The Da Vinci Disappearance.
"While there have been many major hints and clues as to the next Assassin’s Creed title, whether it be another title in the style of Brotherhood or the final third installment, there has been nothing concrete discovered.
"Until now."
"Hello everyone, we have more details to share concerning the upcoming decommissioning of online services affecting several AC titles, including additional information regarding the DLC for these titles."
When will you decommission this new one? I’m only asking so I can be happier by not buying it at full price.
The dog Chorizo from FAR CRY 6 has wheelchair legs, so is hardly a decommissioned pet. In fact very useful for digging up dirt.
Immersed Gamer writes: "Ubisoft came out with the announcement that some of their classic titles are shutting down their servers. While this is not entirely surprising, the next bit is quite shocking. As Ubisoft states in regard to many of said classic games, “additionally, the installation and access to DLC will be unavailable”.
The wording is a little vague, so the actual paid DLC could be safe. But it doesn’t change the fact that multiplayer modes of Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood, Rayman Legends, and Driver San Francisco will surely be missed. Especially since no alternative exists in many of those cases. This happens to unveil right next to our story where I essentially beg Atlus to port SMT to modern consoles alongside Persona.
Seems like videogame preservation is on the down-low…"
And you want us to go all digital? This is the bull sh*t that makes me apprehensive to an all digital future. You corpo guys don’t understand game preservation or it’s importance.
Companies who withdraw support should be legally made to patch games to enable the 'owner' to create and host their own MP lobbies. This is theft
Assassin's Creed multiplayer hasn't been a thing for well over half a decade. That's a good reason to bring it back.
Hey, can we get an Assassin's Creed game without 10+ year old controls that are outdated and filled with bugs that gets ignored that includes progress breaking bugs from launch that aren't fixed even months after launch?
If you an assassin's like MP mode, I'd recommend Ghost of Tsushima Legends instead.
It's definitely interesting, and something to toy around with in your head.
I just hope the next title is 3, and not another go-between game.
Proeliator, I agree. I'd like the next one to be 3. Im a little nervous lol, I'd like to see the story end on the 360 so I won't have to buy a new console just to continue it. It's the last series I need to finish. So I'm hoping for an ac 3 soon :).
Then my gaming life will be complete lol :D
I'd really hope it doesn't go to the US. Part of the appeal are the rich historical settings from hundreds of years ago. Chronologically the American Revolution works, but the US at the time didn't have nearly the rich architectural cities to climb and jump around in as elsewhere...unless it is going more small scale cities with lots of countryside, farms etc. The battles between the French in Canada and the British would even be more interesting IMO. The French revolution too, as far as interesting time period. Napoleon conquers most of Europe and Egypt which would make many interesting possibilities
Nah....no thanks. If it's true then I probably won't be that fussed.
I think it would be great, the game definitely needs a change of scenery.
