I'm playing the first game out of this series and I'm near the end fighting off the Templars about to kill Rober or whatever the F it is. I don't know if this game does this on purpose but its almost IMPOSSIBLE to effin kill the Templars!!

My counterattacks all of a sudden do NOTHING but punch the guys.. they no longer kill them in one swipe like the usual counterattacks, but not only that.. when I punch them they usually fall to the ground this is where I get my free shots at killing them.. it used to take maybe 1 or 2 hits with my sword to kill them on the ground but no.. now it takes 3 or 4 or effin 5!! If I can even make it to that many with everyone stabbing me from behind.. since when does it take 3 or 5 stabs with my sword to kill them.. is it because I'm near the end and everything that I was taught goes out the window?

Not only that, but my sword blocks all of sudden stop working.. I can block maybe one guy by holding down R1 or R2.. whatever one it is but as soon as he takes another go at me.. he hits me.. I have him highlighted and everything! I have played this game and none of this has ever been a problem!! I've been doing the counterattacks and blocking before with NO issues but now near the end.. it doesn't work. This is so EFFIN FRUSTRATING, how am I expected to beat all these guys when none of my action works and all my counterattacks do nothing!!

You have to be more defensive, wait for the enemy to strike and then counter. There was alot wrong with AC1 and ubisoft really adressed the issues in AC2 and ACBrotherHood which in my opinion are 2 of the best games ever made easily

I didnt find AC1 frustrating at all just abit repetitive but if you have not played AC2 or ACB then you are in for a treat. stick with AC1 to the end because all the games are very heavily related and the story is amazing.

hope this helped

yeah JP to be honest i thought the first one was crap.. boring and repetetive and i never thought about buying the 2nd one but then i borrowed it and it was amazing.,. and brotherhood is just as good.. but its a shame the 1st one reaaallllyy sucked... but ya what i done is just gave up on the 1st one and read up on it instead xD.... was too repetetive to want to complete.... but the 2nd one was much better so stick with it :)

I didnt think the first one sucked, it was repetetive but thats about it, I just enjoyed the characters and the soundtrack and just hopping about on roof tops.

The great thing I found about the first AC is just how gripping the story was and the gameplay mechanics were like something I had never seen before in such a massive world, I mean you could climb to the top of massive buildings and see the whole of jerusulum or Acre

I spent alot of time exploring the world and just enjoying being Altair. Assassins creed was also the first game I ever played on my first Samsung HDTV and couldnt get over how lush the graphics were.

Assassin's Creed as game series is EPIC, Gripping, Emotional, addictive.

JP, go and buy Assassin's Creed 2 coz it blows AC1 out of the water and ACrevelation's is even better than AC2 in my opinion and it has an amazing multiplayer experience which is like nothing Ive ever played.

well i do see ur point.. the gameplay was good in the first one... but apart form the fighting and climbing etc etc.. there wasnt much to it... the things what u had to do wasnt fun and there just wasnt much content in the game... all it was for most of the game is eavsdrop on someone.. steal some info off of someone else.. the do the assassination.. then do the same thing over and over... ac2 and brotherhood has alot more content and much more to do.. from all the hype that surrounded the first AC it really was a dissapointment to me.. and u mean brothewrhood is even better than ac2 xD... well tbh i think ac2 was a little better in the story mode department... but AC brotherhood had multiplayer which made it an overall better game.. but yeah your right... AC2 and brotherhood were much better than AC1.. cant wait for the next one!

Yeah I agree with you matt, I am probably halfway through AC2 and the actually fighting is like night and day to compare to AC. It's almost too easy to kill people now! lol  AC2 has a lot more fun puzzles which I'm addicted too, like "The Truth" puzzles... so much fun!

AcRevelation's will be pure EPIC, it actually pains me that I have to wait 4 month's for it.

I have watched this trailer about 15 times and its just amazing, I know I posted it already but here it is again just incase anyone missed it.

It's similar to Hitman. You get an objective to kill some people, find where they live, know the blueprint in the facility where they will be and execute them when the time is right. That's how assassins are.

From my perceptive, I thought AC 1 was better by a few things. 1. The enemies never knew Altair is an assassin. 2. Getting information from a pleasant really determine how your plans would be easy or difficult to murder your target. 3. It's not about getting revenge a pond yourself; it's about doing what your told as an assassin. That's the difference between AC 1 & AC 2.

I just don't get those "hide in the shadows, swing three times around a pole and jump in to a barrel"-type of games. Every 3rd person game i've tried on PS3 has not brought much anything new to the genre. Maybe it's just me. I'll better just stick to BO, Ut and Sheepoid

yeah but the main difference between ac1 and ac2 was ac2 was good lol... as i said in the last comment i made... ac2 actually had alot of variance..  it had u doing alot more things and alot more sidequests and not just the same thing over and over and over again like in ac1 which made it boring.. no variations in each assassination at all, and nothing different in the building up to an assassination either... the only good thing good in ac1 was the fighitng and climbing gameplay.. but it was improved in ac2 and even more in brotherhood...

Its only after youve played AC2 that u realise some of the failures of AC1 imo (apart from repetitive gameplay - do mission/get reward - very linear. It was fun and a visual treat. The series overall is better than SplinterCell or Metal Gear Solid for me and ACB is the best of all - but AC2 I njoyed more cos I completed it rather than stopping/starting in ACB.
There isnt another game like this and it plays so smoothly with the right level of difficulty and so many challenges thats why the next installment is a gimme. Just hope they dont go ape with Enzio and notorious status.
Cos I'm Wonderman...I'll take that knife and shove it up your a$$!

I rather enjoyed AC. However, have tried 3 times now to play AC2, but every time, a few hours in, I get hella bored.
