I only own assassins creed one and still didn't finish it, I like it alot but I don't know if I will ever buy another one of the series since it's now become more of a pure fighting game and not as much stealth involved.

Well, in AC:B to reach full synchronization on most memories it requires stealth.

Which just means for most players, hide in a bush until it goes up.
But I always liked how you can listen to a guy talking about a political leader with three guards with him, then wlak up to him, punch him to death, and the guards won't care at all. I also find it quite fun to climb the tallest building you could find, and test how good your computer truly is, I found that assassins creed actualy runs best on high for me.

Sorry I relized that "runs best on high" could be confusing, what I meant was that my computer runs it best with every shadow deatail and stuff on highest setting. The only problem I have with the game is the sprites randomly start dissapearing and reapering then I have to alt-tab out and back in.

You need to buy the 2nd one. Best one in the series in my opinion.

@ifYoulnsist
Assassin's Creed Revelations will be the best in the series have you seen the ending?
@somewhat
believe it or not almost none of the AC fans played the first one because it was too repetitive and it was . i actually never played AC 2 because my bro said it was too Adult but i saw him play it. ACB is the first ac i played

That wouldn't work considering there's timed missions; if you don't finish in the alloted time then you won't achieve full synchronization. And anyway there are many guards on missions and rarely bushes near the targets. You also have to kill certain people with specific weapons to reach full synchronization, which I liked. It's good because it's more challenging.

That one was good; the story was much longer than AC1 and AC:B, but it lacked many things. I like how AC:B put many new things into the game, especially the multiplayer mode.

I can't wait for AC:R, Altair's going to be a playable character, also I hope they put many new things into the game.

Well, they're all rated M and AC:B was more bloody than AC2. AC2 was good because Ezio was very humorous and it mixed action with stealth. AC:B was good, too, but I felt it was lacking with Ezio a bit because he was quiet; like how Altair was in the first game.

I think that a real Assassins creed fan should have played all of them. And it is a really good game, this summer I completed it for the fifth time.
I think ACB was the worst in the series. The map is to small in comparison to others, the story was an expansion to AC2, Ezio changed in a bad way.

Probably because it's just in Rome, while in AC2 you had multiple places to travel to. And it kind of was, but if you see it like that then AC:R will be like that as well. Ubisoft likes to milk their titles for all they have. I want a new ancestor in a future game, rather than Ezio and Altair, or at least make more playable characters with short storylines, like being able to play as the Templar characters from multiplayer, or even come up with new assassins.

what i meant was not the violence i meant after Ezio and his brother go to a viewpoint at the start

well i played AC 1 this august because i wanted to know from the start also if Ezio changed in a bad way well in AC 1 Altair change's too from a cocky assassin to a person-who-cares . Also rome was pretty big . I think you did not do the Follower's of Romulus tasks to gain the Armor of Brutus and did the rest of the stuff like assignment's, rebuiding rome and the leonardo machine's.I have 70-90 Snychronization. Also did anyone else go to the top of the castello and use the parachute?

I completed two or three of the Romulus lairs, did many assignments, and rebuilt Rome to about 60-70%. I also finished all of Leonardo's missions. I haven't done the parachute thing yet.

But has anyone done the Copernicus conspiracy missions? They're exclusive downloadable content for AC:B on the PS3, and they're free. I've done about three of his missions, I think I have a few more left.

I didn't bother with those in AC2 nor AC:B. I also didn't bother with getting the feathers nor Borgia flags in either game.

[One of the problems with Assassin's Creed is that people don't understand it. We spend most of our time in CoD, Gears of War, Dead Space and Go-There-And-Shoot-Everyone. Assassin's Creed revolves around patience. A truly good assassin doesn't make a move until he's sure he can do it quietly. Gamers are too used to getting dropped into combat, handed a tool of destruction and cutting everything in half. Assassin's Creed I showed us that that's not how all games are played. It took forever to ride your horse to the next city, and another forever to hide, kill all the rooftop guards, gather information, stalk your target and knife him, but that's how it IS. It DOES take a long time to do that, and Assassin's Creed makes us sit down and do it RIGHT.

Games generally skip the boring parts and go right to the killing. In AC, you have to take your time and do it right. AC2 cut down on the time by providing fast-travel stations, but it still took a long time to find your informants, evade the guard, and stay in range of your target without him seeing you, but that's realistic. Granted, a good bit of it is unrealistic (the "war machines" in AC:B were way, way too over-the-top), but a lot of it is all about patience.

If you want it to be good, you have to sit and wait for one of the guards to break rank and then knife him. Open combat should be a last resort, although sometimes it isn't, and it never is in the ending section, but the rest of it is being careful and working slowly, and we don't like it because we're not used to it. We have to switch into a different gear. Yes, there are a lot of games out that make you run all over the place (Fallout and Oblivion come to mind), but every assassination target in Assassin's Creed 1 (minus the last one) was expected to be a stealth kill, then run and hide.

Personally, I got extremely frustrated with the series several times. It gets tedious and repetitive, but that's the only way to do it. As the series progressed, there were a lot more ways to kill a man (stab him and hide him, shoot him, poison him, push him off a roof or into water, etc), but it retained it's initial point: run out in the open, and you're going to get an arrow or two. Take your time and do it right.] this one deserve's a Merit
