Assassin's Creed: Paris?
If this is true, I'm done with the series. Imo a terrible choice of locale. No disrespect for France or it's people, but i'm truly upset at this. Other locales would be much more rich in history and mystique; Ancient India would have been a better choice. Would have made perfect sense with the story of "flight" , it's origins, and mystery's AC: Black Flag hinted at. The story of Vimana's (air ships) and how even the German's during WW2 tried to recreate them. I'm done using a water based vehicle in which to upgrade. I want an airship.

Maybe Ubisoft will wake up before it's too late. AC5 will be a bummer if you have to stroll around Paris. I made a thread dedicated to these ideas and seems Steam deleted it.

I'm just sick of AC games in general. AC2 was awesome, Brotherhood was really good but short imho, I didn't play Revelations (Or what it was now called) and AC3 was just a trainwreck of boringness.

Like you I've been following the series for many years. I'vr played every single AC but the first and Liberations. Idk, just seems the pattern is "make a good AC, then the next one bland". If this is true then i suspect the next AC (5) will be more or less like 3.

The series needs a kick in the cape. Something new, thought provoking, FUN, a new culture in which to learn. An all new in game engine which shows the possibilities of " next gen". Not the same old same old stuff. An ancient (or current depending on the time frame) airship or something along the likes of, would do this! There's tons of ideas and Ancient India is just an example. I'm sure many, many fans around the world would love to see something different.

One has to think..what will the next vehicle be in which to upgrade ala the ship in the last 2 AC games. Surely there's other ideas than a boat. Without taking Black Flag into consideration, just seems the story is not going anywhere. AC: Black Flag has it's cool moments when at the Abstergo area(s) in which the player uncovered hidden files. Relating to everything from Ufo's, ancient technology's, strange phenomena. The player wants intrigue, mystery, ancient caverns and puzzles. More of what made AC:2 and Black Flag awesome.

Did Ubisoft even review the player "ratings" before deciding to hold the next AC in Paris?

it's so the guards will now run away from the fight
Assassins Creed got me introduced to gaming and I love the series.

I still do, but I'm sick of how they're kind-of turning into CoD and releasing games that bring nothing new to the table every year.
who cares?
you get to be some guy with knives duct taped to his sleeves.

Lmao
Assassin's Creed III was originally supposed to be set in Revolutionary Paris. That is FAR more interesting then what we got instead.

Assassin's Creed: India? No thanks, the last few games demonised British imperialism too much.

The ships mechanics in the recent games were almost a game in themselves, you could almost ignore the whole "assassination" business and just play a pirate. That was awesome.

Don't bother asking fans what they want, fanbois can be the most obnoxious, overly conservative and selfish gits in the world; as Henry Ford (supposedly) said: "If I’d asked people what they wanted, they would have asked for a better horse".

Ancient India. Ever read the Sanscit Epics? I'm not talking about British Imperialism
In this video, you see ancient temples around India. Notice they look like ships or "Vimana's"

I'm not saying AC needs rocket ships, but it is obvious where the influence of such things came from. In some of the Sanscrit Epics it tells how to build them, pilot them, and even what proper gear a pilot should bring along for a trip.

Going further back in time and lose some of the cool mechanics the series picked up along the way? No thanks.

Those images in the video look great to for parkour, but we kinda moved away from all that, no?

False sterotype is false.

In the last 2.5K years, France has won 109 wars, drawn 10 times and lost 49, possibly the best record in Western history. That includes wars with the Romans, Vikings, British and Germany.

I appreciate your comment. I just want to reiterate this concept so please excuse the lengthy post. The whole concept of AC is to find out why Abstergo was created and to prevent it from ruining the world with it's grip upon civilized cultures through it's use of the Animus. Why the Assassin's were battling the Knights Templar, who had control over and surpressed many ancient technologies. Further, why the Knights Templar were ultimately associated with Abstergo.

The whole story is about control and how by using the Animus, history can be changed. The history of the Knights Templar dates far back into ancient culture and possibly even before it. This was hinted many times during the series. It's obvious during the Abstergo sequences of Black Flag that the company was changed. If you remember much of their leaders were "taken care of" by Desmond. More or less to "fix" the damage Abstergo did. Now it seems, Abstergo can jump to any time frame as a means of entertainment (or so they say). This is a ruse and it's party uncovered during the Abstergo sequences in Black Flag. Full details and motives aren't really known yet, of course.

In AC: 3 and Black Flag major shipping routes were exposed. If you remember, Abstergo had it's hands on everything including foods and products. The only way to change some of that that was to go back to that era and change it by affecting the trade routes, which were one of the reasons that made Abstergo rich. In AC3, Connor eventually helped secure and set up farm land, which i believe is important in Desmond's timeline. Maybe this is where Desmond would eventually be raised by his father or his relatives before him? Desmond's DNA is still intact according to the some of the files uncovered at Abstergo. During the Abstergo sequences of Black Flag, files are uncovered which bring to light some of the things they were possibly looking into. Strange phenomena, Ufo's, Tesla-based technologies, etc. I see nowhere in Black Flag how Paris, France (other than the Initiates missions to read about) would be associated with those things uncovered. Who knows?

I'd rather much see the series go into a new area which includes a broader skybox or i.e flight. This is where an airship or some sort would come into play. Many land drawings by ancient cultures can only be seen from the air. Were they made to appease "gods" or for example were they really to show the elites in which they farmed for, the things in which they had to trade? This proves there had to be some form of air travel by someone. Whether flight was only available to the super-rich or elite only time will tell. By researching some ancient cultures like Ancient India, it is obvious that some form of air travel was possible many thousands, perhaps 50,000-75000 years ago on Earth.

The story of Assassin's Creed describes how history was controlled. It sheds light on many of the important things regarding human civilation which were hidden by Abstergo and the Knights Templar. Human civilization dates back farther than what is told, by hundreds of thousands of years. This is more than enough time for a culture to advance, technologically speaking, well into space and perhaps even return back to Earth. Hence in many ancient cultures, their description(s) of space craft and strange beings in space suits. Many texts and books were destroyed in wars past. Most of the remnants and surviving texts are hidden (Abstergo & Knights Templar).

The great thing about Assassin's Creed is how it mixes fact with fiction. It's up to the player to decide. It's broad range of historical data and cultures in which to transverse. Era's which you can travel, times in which to see. In all this though, I question whether Ubisoft is actually listening to it's fans or are we just employees of Abstergo..

Yes, the plot with Assassin's Creed was something about an evil modern corporate-front for a religio-fascist organisation taking over the world, but the d00ds you played in the game's historical settings used weapons that were "contemporary" for the time. An ancient India would lose firearms, hooks, improvements to the assassin's blade etc.

Sandbox games where you could go from A to B really quickly are fun, but you are likely going to require a supercomputer to create a large enough map that does not feel tiny when you allow flight in the game.

Personally, I would rather Ubisoft ditch the whole Desmond and Templars thing, they were never really any fun.

Like I said earlier, fans don't often know what they want. If we asked them where to take AC after AC II, they proabably would have said "Renaissance Italy" because it is what they are used to.

Idk..was hoping for something a bit more creative. I guess it LOOKS cool, but looks don't always mean everything.

Given Ubisoft's recent record with previews of their games, I'll bet that it will look worse when it comes out.
