PC release date confirmation

PC release date is October 30 on the amazon preorder site. (Arabian411269 (talk) 22:42, August 2, 2012 (UTC))

Ubisoft releasing the PC version a day earlier than the consoles? What universe does this amazon exist? --VATSA (TALK • GENTEK) 03:17, August 3, 2012 (UTC)

Lol. Totally get your point (though it pains me) (Arabian411269 (talk) 13:50, August 3, 2012 (UTC))

isnt the US release the 30th? amazon has probably just got that date as tentative and it would change if they get more info. Ægritudo _Talk 05:30, August 3, 2012

I doubt they'll just change it. Any change in delivery dates is a breach of contract unless they have a disclaimer or something. (Arabian411269 (talk) 13:50, August 3, 2012 (UTC))

any date(or other info for that mater) that they have for preorders/unreleased product is subject to change, if ubi pushes back the release date this change will reflect on the amazon page, they will garantee the price you pay wont go up on your preorder tho.

Ah, shit. (Arabian411269 (talk) 01:39, August 12, 2012 (UTC))

New Screenshots

I found these new screenshots on kotaku. (Arabian411269 (talk) 12:16, August 15, 2012 (UTC))

{C {C}{C Should we put them In AC 3 page, and have you sourced them??AnsweratioN ^{Coffee Maybe?}_{Wisdom words} 12:27, August 15, 2012 (UTC)

They're good quality images so I don't see why not. Source them and you're good to go. ~ GI Auditore ^{Comms Channel} 13:14, August 15, 2012 (UTC)

none of these three are sourced, do they really add anything to the article? should also be asked before adding them. Ægritudo _Talk 13:15, August 15, 2012 (UTC)

I did a bit of digging and sourced the images. Thanks for noting they were from kotaku, made the whole thing a lot easier. We can go ahead and use them for the articles now, seeing as they are of good quality and could be useful for certain sections. ~ GI Auditore ^{Comms Channel} 13:47, August 15, 2012 (UTC)

Glad I could help. (Arabian411269 (talk) 14:16, August 15, 2012 (UTC))

Criticisms

So I was looking through the Criticisms section and I noticed there's only room for one image there (otherwise it looks bad). Now I'm wondering, which image would be better suited for the section? We could go with Connor assassinating a Continental (pictured on the section above) to show the outcome, or we could go with him killing Redcoats (currently used, pictured on the right), showing the cause. What does everyone else think? ~ GI Auditore ^{Comms Channel} 08:11, August 17, 2012 (UTC)

EDIT: I hope you guys don't mind I changed this part to a vote of sorts. ~ GI Auditore ^{Comms Channel} 14:03, August 17, 2012 (UTC)

Continental

1. I say put the one where he kills a Continental soldier. The Redcoat picture reinforces the rumor and misrepresents the game since almost EVER other picture on the wikia shows him killing Redcoats. Plus it looks better, just sayin. (Arabian411269 (talk) 13:30, August 17, 2012 (UTC)).
2. Agree we shuld take the one where he kills a continental solider.--ACsenior (talk) 13:43, August 17, 2012 (UTC)
3. I'm voting here because most other images show Redcoat killing, and it would show the change brought about by the criticism. ~ GI Auditore ^{Comms Channel} 14:03, August 17, 2012 (UTC)
4. I say continental cause if we make it seem that the rumors are true then less people will want to play, and if its decided to not put the picture on that specific section lets put an assinated continental pic somewhere on the page. (Mullac09) 5:00, August 17, 2012
   1. We aren't advertising the game. The Crimson Eagle (talk) 14:58, August 17, 2012 (UTC)
   2. Made a mistake sorry its (Mullac09) 5:05 August 17, 2012

Loyalist

1. I would go the other way and say leave the redcoats, simply because it does display the subject of criticism. couldnt they both be displayed if the existing image and the new one were displayed smaller? Ægritudo _Talk 13:47, August 17, 2012 (UTC)
2. Yeah. It doesn't fit the "Criticisms" topic unless you show one exclusively with Red-coat killing. Fairy Tail Grand Master^{<F.T.G.M. >}
3. Keep the Loyalist pic, but add some text saying that they did show some Americans being killed, finally. Why so serious? (talk) 14:58, August 17, 2012 (UTC)

Comments

1. How about both, but in a slideshow. --ACsenior (talk) 13:56, August 17, 2012 (UTC)
2. Putting both would of course be better. Just reword the paragraphs to get it to look right. (Arabian411269 (talk) 14:00, August 17, 2012 (UTC))
3. Correct me if I am wrong but I thought votes had to be cleared with admins first and then allowing them to oversee and apply changes when the vote is over. Also, I thought all votes were to be kept to the forums area for ACIII discussion rather than the article's talk section. -- ► Kaloneous ◄ _{♣^HelpDesk♣} 14:16, August 17, 2012 (UTC)
4. Hmm... I didn't know that. It started as a discussion but when I saw people had varying opinions and input, I thought a vote of sorts would be a good idea. Also, this seemed quite minor to warrant a separate forum page. ~ GI Auditore ^{Comms Channel} 14:20, August 17, 2012 (UTC)
5. Well it's here now, I'm just worried it will turn into another argument like we have witness numerous times about this subjects hence an admin to adjudicate would be a good idea in my opinion. -- ► Kaloneous ◄ _{♣^HelpDesk♣} 14:26, August 17, 2012 (UTC)
6. And I don't really see why the area cannot have two pics in the first all..put the new pic in the right hand side of the last paragraph [[File:Connor_Killing_Continental_Soldier.jpg|right|thumb|200px]]..also change the other pic to 200px..--Odranoelluta^{Talk✲<choose><option>http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/marvel-cinematic-universe/images/1/18/Sig.png</option></choose>} 15:11, August 17, 2012 (UTC)

Is the criticism section even needed anymore? I mean, we've seen him kill plenty of colonists now. It's outdated. 71.65.74.137 21:52, September 8, 2012 (UTC)

What about Connor killing a Continental with a British musket wielder? I knoww it would probably be like the Ottomans and the Byzantines, but still. Ezio Auditore 1459 (talk) 00:48, September 12, 2012 (UTC)

Developer Diary

Shouldn't the developer diary be posted in the video section?24.189.110.253 21:52, September 8, 2012 (UTC)

Will you add new characters to the Multiplayers?

Dear Assassin's Creed Editors,

My name is Sean Wolf and i wanted to ask if you were gonna add different characters in the Multiplayer Game?

Because I have pretty cool ideas for characters that you could use. Like different assassins with good storys behind them, what weapons they could use, and names for them I think some of my ideas would possibly get more buyers Assassin's Creed III. If your not interested it's okay... atleast you read this Letter.

Sincerly,

Sean Wolf

Ps. If you are iterested in some ideas my email is seanwolf97@hotmail.com

This wiki is made by FANS. The staff stay in close contact with Ubi, but we are NOT Ubisoft. You can discuss possible MP characters in the Forums. The AC3 page is updated frequently and includes an up-to-date list of MP characters. ThatRandomUser ~Lair of Randomness ^{(Enter at own risk)} 14:15, September 21, 2012 (UTC)

Homestead

Why is there no info on homestead in the article. From the sounds of it it will be an important piece of gameplay and quests/storyline
