i managed to assassinate a few in the beginning. but i think the other templars knew about their comrades getting killed thats why they are more cautious later on.

its a sidequest like the flags.

counters are effective as well. and yea, i killed them pretty easily after.

i pretty much took on the whole army in acre. cuz there were so many of them walking around at the time where i saved the old priest outside.

Ya i figured that the fight gets much easier once u gradually get all your skills back

although i still barley use the knife throws


i love it during rescuing a citizen when ur fighting the thugs and u attract more guards to fight, its just sooo bad ass, and then you throw them onto a pillar or a fruit stand and it just gets knocks down..

but ya, so far i find the game pretty easy

even after the chase fight after assasinating the target its still pretty easy....

Hey guys, there is this new hybrid controller out for the PS3 that you FPS guys might wanna try especially all those braggers who keep saying keyboard/mouse is better bla bla bla.. i think u guys are just full of crap cause you suck with a controller.


Anyways..
This new controller on your left hand is the 1/2 ps3 controllers and on the right side is a mouse. So you can get the best of both.

It is called the FragFX controller

for those playing Assasins Creed

have any of you guys defeated the Templars in a straight sword fight?

iv always snuck up behind and assasinate them

however, when you get to Jerusalem, or other cities, when you encounter a Templar, u cant even trick them by blending in.. they still spot u

i always get my ass whooped so i just book it to the closest hiding spots.. their insane to fight with..
they're hard to fight until you at least get your counter-kills. when you get the grab defense, they're even easier. I find the easiest thing to do is to throw them against a wall, and when they fall, hack the shit outta them. easy kill.

Lucy's pen was easy to jacked.. at some point in the game, someone will give you the access code to open the door in your room once u go in

then u go out and u will see Lucy's pen by the Animus

as for the Doctor, there will be a scene where he will walk into your room holding a mug, then short convo and he will walk out, follow him until he standing by the window facing out, then there you can take his pen

you have to wait until the next scene with them til you can access his computer...

but ya, Templars get crazy easy once u get all your counters..

i always get annoyed before because i when i try to save a citizen, ill attract a buttload of guards and sometimes the Templars and thats when i get rocked.. but now, i just love killing them, especially with the short dagger..

anyways i just beaten the game.. the last 2 "levels" were epic.. a definite thumbs up for me on this game. truely a next gen experience

my suggestion for those having a hard time with the sword fights, practice ur timing with counter very well

because you will need that desperately towards the end when the game pits you with tons of enemies...

i had no problem with the last couple of fights, i just felt like a bad ass slashing off 7 soldiers all at once using the back forth swing slash trick.. soldiers cant block that much momentum...

it gets really wierd at the end though........

I noticed there isn't an assassin's creed thread. so i'll just post in here. anyone experience random freezing in the game? like the character will just stop. camera control still exists, the game recognizes that you're pressing buttons, but nothing. start button doesnt do anything either.

do the slash and swing trick

basically u try to hit someone thats closes to you, then hit strike again but focus on the guy behind you, then swing again to the guy on your right or whomever is around you.. do this without pauses on the striking..

once you get more momentum with the slashing, your enemies wont be able to counter your hit and one slash kills them...


but beware, while your starting your slash momentum, get ready for some counter because enemies can strike you while your doing this....

uncharted is pretty good

im 90% finished of the game


chapter 16 or 17 forgot



except my only complain is that a lot of the levels background looks very very similar

otherwise pretty decent game, worth picking it up

anyone getting frame lag issues with AC? I get the feeling that the PS3 RAM is working it's ass off everytime i play this game. It framelags the most when you oberve from a view point. Otherwise it's not a big deal.
