Have An Assassin's Creed III Question? Ask Away

A few weeks ago, we revealed Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed III to the world in our latest cover story. Since then, many of you have naturally had questions about the exciting American Revolution setting, new protagonist, and gameplay changes. Now's your chance to ask the makers.

We'll take your questions straight to the team at Ubisoft Montreal and get the answers you crave. Obviously, the developers aren't going to spill the beans about everything in this podcast (pro tip: don't bother asking about multiplayer), but If you have any lingering questions about the information we shared about the game in our cover story or subsequent online coverage (click the banner below to check it out), share them in the comments section below. We'll select the best queries and ask them during in a special-edition Game Informer podcast with the dev team later in the month.

Comments
  • What should we go in expecting? Should we be ready for a natural proggression, a leaner version, or something totally its own?

  • What will we be collecting in this game? And will we actually have some sort of payoff for collecting them this time? Hopefully it won't be like the data fragments in Revelations, because that was lame.

  • Is it all one open world or three different areas (Boston, New York, and the wilderness)
  • What percentage of the game will you play as Connor and what percentage will you play as Desmond?

  • Will there be a full explanation of what on earth the "gods" are? Like Minerva or Juno.
  • What customization options are you considering for Assassin's Creed 3? Besides color it would seem that most other options from earlier games serve no practical purpose in the new time period. How do you plan to address this?
  • Is this the conclusion of the Assassin's Creed trilogy? Is it a trilogy?
  • Will Desmond have a modern day New York to run around in to parallel Connor's in the 1700s?
  • Will the Assassins discover Lucy's double agent status? Also will there be swords, duel hidden blades (including the upgrades) and armor with specially made sets? One more question: did Ezio ever recover Altairs armor?
  • how will the hunting mechanics work as in using rifles and the bow and arrow, will it be lock in and auto shoot or will it be free aim?
  • I'd love to know: Will there will puzzles like the glyph riddles in AC2 again? I LOVED those and, with America being the new location, it would make sense to me if those little conspiracy games were included again. Thanks!

  • If you are new to the series, does this game feature a good first time experience for new people since the series is growing?
  • Will we still be playing as Desmond outside of the Animus, and if so or not, will there be other playable people other than Connar and Desmond?

  • I have been with your sires since the release of AC 1 in 2007, and its awesome. So what I'm wondering is simple. The length of this game's storyline. AC 2 had a good size single player, will AC 3 be that size or maybe even longer? Thank you so much!

  • prince of persia-esque puzzle/platforming rooms were a fantastic addition to ACII. Have you taken any steps further to create more platforming/puzzle solving dungeons in ACIII?

    In addition, the fact that during the american revolution buildings were as high as some of the buildings in the previous AC games should constitute a change in the gameplay mechanics. What will the vantage point factor be replaced with in ACIII?
  • From what I've seen it seems the game takes a bias viewpoint and has the assassin solely fighting for the revolutionaries against the British. Is this what we should expect for the entirety of the game?
  • What kind of weapons will you be able to have?
  • will Connor have any contact with Native Americans tribes that were allies with the Mohawks?
  • I got two simple questions: 1. Will the civilians say disgraceful things EVERY TIME you climb or will they be like "I wish I could do that"? 2. How long will the game probably be?
  • Regarding the present, will we play more as Desmond, and maybe even meet other Assassins or actually face Abstergo and the Templars? Will the Assassins come to know of the facts shown in The Lost Archive DLC [SPOILER] About Lucy's true allegiance [END SPOILER]? And as I have read [SPOILER] Daniel Cross is a member of the Templar Inner Sanctum under the operations brand. Will we face him sometime in the game? [END SPOILER]
