I wanted it to be set in feudal Japan, but I think this means they decided to go with the American revolution :( link1 link2 Or maybe it's meant for April's fools? --109.60.119.248 20:00, March 1, 2012 (UTC)

Incase you hadn't noticed, April fool's is a while off yet. But, anyway, why would we go all the way to feudal Japan when we should really be wrapping things up and seeing Desmond's journey end? The location of the grand temple was revealed to be in America by Jupiter at the end of revelations, so feudal Japan would lead us off the trail. Maybe in a future spin-off, but it makes more sense to base it closer to home - in Desmond's case, America.

The Character

Does anyone know at this point who the new ancestor is?

If we did, it would already be on the wiki. Please use this talk page only for discussion on the article itself, not to discuss the game. -- Master Sima Yi 22:49, March 1, 2012 (UTC)

Not to be rude but this is what a talk page is about to discuss things. And this specific article is about the game so why can't we talk about the game?

I have to agree with you, random contributor. This is a talk page about AC3, so we should be able to talk about AC3 here. The character is half Native American, and you have probably seen the art by now (I can post a link if you haven't). We do not know his name yet Makatak7 01:29, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

I know the name of the new assassin. I heard it from an interview. When can we put it on? 07:20, March 4, 2012 (UTC)The Great Dog Demon

Weaponry

Just for discussion's sake.

From the promo images, it seems the Tomahawk might be the focus weapon for the third game, as opposed to swords (at least swords are still around, being the 18th century) Also that bow and arrow might be taking the place of the crossbow as the silent ranged weapon. And a proper pistol instead of the hidden gun, what do people think? 2.102.44.200 14:44, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

That's pretty much all we've seen so far. The assassin also looks like he may also have a longer pistol sheathed, and I wouldn't be suprized to see him pick up a rifle. But besides that, I think you're pretty much right. He might pick up a saber after killing a general or something like that. And don't forget to mention that he has at least one hidden blade.

Of course, I hope he has two hidden blades. He seems to embrace his Native American heritage, so I'm interested to see how he combines it with his membership in the Assassin's order. Also, this guy MUST be either a descendant of Ezio or Altair, I'm thinking Ezio. 2.102.44.200 14:44, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

You don't know if the guy has hidden blades on his feet. 114.77.236.87 06:33, March 3, 2012 (UTC)

I've heard that idea tossed around a lot since they said Ezio had two hidden blades because it was Assassin's Creed II. But from a gameplay point of view I think it would suck. I do hope theres some cross weapon animations though, like if you have the tomahawk equipped and counter kill you might use the hidden blade in the animation, that'd be cool. 2.102.44.200 09:37, March 3, 2012 (UTC)

Can you still buy stuff?

Does anyone know if you can buy stuff like weaponry on ACIII? 114.77.236.87 06:37, March 3, 2012 (UTC)

Yes, the economy system is still in AC3. It will have some slight changes, but it will work similarly to what's already been established. Slate Vesper 06:45, March 3, 2012 (UTC)

Hookblade?

Do you think it'll return? For me, it was the best new feature in AC:R. Xeoxer 11:59, March 3, 2012 (UTC)
