Still too many questions

CAUTION !! This review contains some spoilers!

Contents of the Collector's Edition:

The Collector's Edition is a bit more expensive, but will also offer a lot more.

- Artbook with lots of interesting content to the emergence of the game
- Soundtrack CD with many songs from the game
- Assassin's Creed Embers DVD
- Additional multiplayer characters
- Additional Mission "The Fortress of Vlad the Impaler"

For the price (about 10 more) I think that's one more than in the normal edition is offered.

Installation:

The game was installed surprisingly fast for me (ca.5min); otherwise the installation takes me about 20 minutes.
After the first start the game all content needs to load once, what about a further 10 minutes takes.

The first start:

First mn found with Desmond in the Animus Island again. There you have to first of all look at a short cutscene in which you will be informed of the subject 16 in person about the Animus Island. Subject 16 leads Desmond to a kind of portal, with which you have to relive the memories of Ezio remaining.
Once you have then passed through the portal, are listed as the first all participating Ubisoft Company.
Now you have to watch again the first trailer, but Ezio speaks so many times to the trailer and we learn why he docked to Masyaf reist.Das game directly to the trailer, it is located on a platform under the gallows and now has the shadows Follow Altair. Here you can learn the first time the full name of Altair: Altair Ibn La Ahad.

The Story:

The main story is the library of Altair. Ezio is in Masyaf a stone door that wurde.Doch exposed by a worker of the Templars this stone tablet can not be destroyed by violence, as Ezio must look over the story 5 Masyaf key. In this quest he meets a woman named Sophia know where he very interested ist.Natürlich because she's hot ^^. Anyway Sophia helps him the books of Nicolo Polo look. In these books, is the site of a tomb, in which a key is hidden, similar to AC 2 and Brotherhood, to get the armor of Altair or Romulus.
However, there is a second main story, which is different from the first.
This is about the Ottoman Empire, the Templars and the Sultan, or the Prince Süleyman. You always get commissions from the Prince, as there are some Templars in the Life Guards, the Janissaries, the Sultan. This is necessary to detect and eliminate, or follow out to their hiding places.

Now here are some positive and negative points to the story:
+ Interesting
+ Many questions about Altair, whose death and the gods of 2 and Brotherhood be clarified.
+ Main story makes only 65% ​​of the overall game, ie a lot of side missions
+ Optional mission objectives (as in Brotherhood)

- Is getting shorter (AC 2 14 sequences Brotherhood Revelations 9 u 9.)
- Stories somewhat confused each other
- A lot of questions like what will become of Ezio, what is not clear from the family and, and, and.
(In Brotherhood Ezio returns again to Monteriggioni back, but why is not said in Revelations ...)

Konstantin Opel (Istanbul):

I think the city is very beautiful decorated, there is also a lot of new buildings such as the library (for art dealers).
At the library you can buy a variety of books and treasure maps. Some of these books are extremely expensive
(13.000 A).
Where we already talking about the next would be: the new currency. There the Akce. You are in the familiar Florin in a ratio of 1: 1.
I think the shops are very well distributed in the city, but more shops in the Grand Bazaar could be.
The city is in my opinion very nicely, just as I had imagined at the time. Many stalls where carpets are sold, but you can not buy yourself. These rugs are and just hang around everywhere, as well as the water pipes.

Graphics:

The graphic has been improved compared to Brotherhood again, but there are still some Grafikfehler.Wenn I GNP. a box plunder, then distorts the wall; very Doll visible.
Nevertheless, attention was paid to every detail.
But in my opinion almost all HUD's made to corners. The life indicator consists only of vertical lines and the life indication of the opponents is also only a crossbeam. Not the best for me.
The colors are too saturated to me in some places. Ex. It is so, if one sees Ezio's eyes, they are as yellow as frog eyes and stand out.

Sound:

The sound has not in principle to previous versions geändert.Jedoch there is a big minus point. Because if someone is talking to you and not look at him directly, that is, he can not be seen, so distorts the voice and sounds like an old East German movie.

Guards:

By its very nature, the guards have changed only the name and in appearance, except for the nimble guards who called an extent.

Militia: They are the weakest guards. Easy to defeat and lightly armed.
Leader: You lead a patrol. You have either a lance or an ax.
Paranoid guards: You see a faster and alert watch all the same. They are very lightly armed and easily defeated.
Demolition Master: You are usually on roofs and pelt you with bombs.
Nimble guards: they are faster than Ezio and very lightly armed (2 meter).
Janissary: ​​They are the bodyguards of the sultan and the strongest opponents. They can survive up to 3 counter-attacks. They are equipped with a sword, and a pistol equipped.
Snipers: They are positioned on rooftops and shoot with rifles.

Weapons and equipment:

As always, you unlock by progress in the story weapons and armor. You start the game with poisoned arrows, the hidden gun, sword, throwing knives, fists and potions. After you get even the hook blade that simultaneously acts as a second hidden blade.
In my opinion there is sufficient armor. Once Vlad armor Standard armor and 3 additional armor that you have to buy.

Bombs:

In sequence 3 you will instruct in the manufacture of bombs. There are 3 types of bombs said: Once the deadly bombs with which one kills. The tactical bombs, with which one makes incapacitating guards and the distraction bombs with which you distract the guards. Each of these bombs is composed of 3 parts: the sleeve, the powder and the ingredient that kills, distract or incapacitate makes. There are 4 types of sleeves.

The delay sleeve explode after a few seconds after the throw.
The impact sleeve to explode upon impact.
The mine explodes sleeve only when someone runs over it.
The adhesive sleeve caught on guards or buildings and then explodes.,

Personally, I always prefer the hail of bombs, as they kill the same and immediately.
Bombs can build on any work bench in the city.

Hook Blade:

This was once again a very good invention of Ubisoft. The hook blade is very versatile. Once you can over ollen watching and comes so faster. Or you can also roll over about a supervisor and they throw this on the floor.
Also in the fight the hook blade is well applicable for the counterattack. One can order the guards pull the legs and then stabbed.
Also scaffolds can tear quickly with a hooked blade.
And what have been very many addressed. The best part is you can hang by the HK on cable cars and slip down down.

Assassin festivals:

The Assassin's festivities are the same as the Borgia towers Brotherhood. You have to kill the captain of the tower and enter through the tower a beacon. So this tower is the Assassin festivals and you can rest there.
But the festivities can fall on of Templars, are, once you are searched. So a small minigame comes to light. You have several assassins put on roofs and so kill the enemy Byzantines (Templar).
But get the Assassin recruits EP and rise as in Brotherhood rank on.
These assassins must also recruit again and only then you can send them on missions and earn money.

Multiplayer:

The MP was improved again by the Brotherhood. One can now make their own profile itself and there are 50 Prestige, for the obtained prices. As already mentioned above houses the Collectors Edition 2 new multiplayer characters.
Many new game modes have been added, such as Defiant. Here you have to run away from sick players and so gets points.
However, there is a very stupid change. Because you get points, if you are staying near a tracker and you can see that too. So you know, that's a persecutor near and you can escape.

AC Embers: (spoiler)

This film shows the last days of Ezio. He now lives with his daughter Sophia and together in Florence. He passes on his knowledge to a young assassin on, which puts him in great danger. because it is located and so must Ezio a letzts times struggling but he does not die here. The next day he would go., Shopping and his daughter Sophia. Ezio was coughing all the time around already. He sits down on a bench and sees his daughter, laughing. He dies on the Parkbank.Sophia and Ezio's daughter drop everything and rush over to him. But he's dead.
I cried a great Ezio fan when he died ....
