<div>It says in the article that the crossbow was removed from Assassin's Creed due to historical inaccuracies. Please tell me what they are? Crossbows did exist during the Third Crusade. [[Special:Contributions/130.113.220.152|[[User:Firebat11|Firebat11]] 19:47, July 5, 2010 (UTC)]]<br />

They did, but I don't think the Hashashashin used them during that time. [[User:FPS Headhunter|FPS_Headhunter]] LASER GUNS BEW BEW!!!! :D 19:53, July 5, 2010 (UTC)<br />

Granted, but historical accuracy isn't exactly a tenant of these games. I've never seen a hidden blade before (despite how cool it is), and there was no way a hidden gun existed either during this time period. They simply didn't have the technology. It should have been included. [[User:Firebat11|Firebat11]] 20:07, July 5, 2010 (UTC)<br />

I know, but the 2 development teams were different. The development team for the original AC probably wanted historical perfection while the AC2 development team wanted it to be historically accurate but with a few fictional components in it.

:Actually, the tecnology for the hidden gun did exist. There are evidences of firearms even during the middle ages, they only never appeared so small. The only problem with the hidden gun would be the range of the weapon and the subsequent lower damages at greater distances.<br />About the crosbows, they really existed during the Third Crusade, but they were big, heavy, two-handed timber mechanisms prone to failures, and not small lightweighted backpacked support weapons like originally intended. -- [[User:D.

:Firearms did exist, but not that small. [[Special:Contributions/130.113.220.152|130.113.220.152]] 14:22, July 7, 2010 (UTC)<br />

They made semi-automatic crossbows so long ago, Jesus could have had a 200 year old one. All arguments about historical innacuracy are rendered invalid.</div>67.171.1.45
