Nope, don't believe it. Also kind of don't want to... major step back going from female protagonist option in Syndicate back to male only. Both or female only pls Ubi. We have many many male assassins to appreciate already!

Yeah just like Bloodborne that was leaked from 4chan that game totally didn't exist.

In like things of the rumours, and despise other things.
Egypt - good
Less historical accuracy - bad
Not an edgy protag - good
Because he doesnt talk much - bad
Colorful and luss enviroments - good
Theres probably not interesting buildings to climb apart from the pyramids, sphynx and some temples - bad
A trilogy that visits Greece and (non renaisance) Rome - good.
50% of interested here right now.

An AC collection makes sense for people that want to jump in before/after seeing the movie.
Hopefully we'll see Watchdogs and AC take turns with releases.

An AC dev calling MGSV repetitive...
So this is the replacement for the plane leak.

Definitely doesn't make things up as he goes along.
Oh Ubisoft. Plug that leaky ship.
To be fair I think he means this more in the sense that we don't know as much to actually base it on.

i hope its all true, guess we find out in June. I'd love a collection that is AC1+AC2 (all) + Rogue for ps4 in 2016.

You know what screw this game. I want a Black flag spirtual successor set in the mediterranean sea, give me Greece, Sparta, and Troy. Maybe some Persia too. All of it.

Of course it has but it's pretty dumb to just dismiss it off hand too.
Of the major gaming sites, it definitely has the best format if you wanted to leak something and get away with it. Place also gets a ton of traffic.

John Harker is very good at this kind of thing for a wide variety of companies, hence the tag.
I guess he could just be speculating on this one given Ubi's AC leak history being around 95%+ accurate.

I think this all sounds great. So great it is not going to happen.
Edit: Or not holy shit if this is true. But I doubt they won't show anything at E3 this year.

Have you never slid down a staircase on your butt? And who knows, it would be a good way to save on polygons!

So, Harker basically confirmed this. Good they're taking a year off.
Now I am curious what will be in that HD collection.

As much as I want this, it's going to be a hell of a collection if they manage to put 3 open worlds in one disc. Even crazier if they go for 60fps for all.Well even if it's true technically we will still have two Assassin's Creed Chronicles games in 2016.

Just been hanging here the past few days. Probably longer than the past 4 months combined.
If any of this is true, it will be my return to the series.

To me, this sounds like Ubisoft likely has Watch_Dogs 2 releasing this holiday season instead of AC. I doubt they would just give up a slot for an open-world game for the holiday period, and we know Watch_Dogs 2 has likely been in production for awhile now. Personally, i'm kind of excited by the prospect of a Watch_Dogs 2.
Yeah, I've been having a lot of fun with Syndicate....it's been a weird series.
AC1 was clunky, awkward, and just a series of poorly explained missions.
AC2 removed some of the awkwardness and upped the story.
ACB took 2 and added some greater control of the city instead of just your home region. You could see Rome regenerate.
ACR was a step back. Smoother mechanics, lush design, rather bizarre base defence optional extra section, rather ragged plot.
AC3 another step back. Mechanics smoothed out even more but infinitely spawning enemies, a lacklustre main character, and a lack of scalable buildings robbed it of the feel of good rennaissance clambering.
ACL Promising mobile game, but so fragmented as to barely make sense. If anything I'd LOVE to see another Aveline game but I doubt it will happen.
AC4 was back to form, all the polish of 3, with some genuinely interesting places to climb and run over, and great naval combat.
ACRogue a step down from AC4 as its plot was fractured like ACL, and it had some awkward navigation issues but it was never a huge step down.
ACU like AC3 only moreso. THe combat was redesigned but this time redesigned poorly. The climbing was redone but lacked the fluidity of AC4. Poorly integrated app, a main story that tries to have impact by capitalising on a relationship it barely develops. Through and through a disappointing AC
ACS not yet finished this one but it's been a real joy next to ACU. The combat's still not as good as 4 (it feels very button mashy rather than considered), but the free running is a little more flowing, and the new Batman grapple gun is very entertaining.

maybe i can finally catch up. haven't played any ac since black flag. any worth skipping if i'm only interested in the story?

Definitely not an STD, as I'm a pure.
Can't wait to play as white Egyptians. AC4 was the only good AC game imo.

Whenever it comes out, it sure needs to run properly on consoles and on PC.

I know 4chan is often home to made up bullshit rumours it has been the source of some bombshells too
Good. Multiplayer with bots coming back would be better than a dead co-op mode. I'm trying to get 4 players to do ONE co-op mission for Unity's Uplay point reward, but it's damn impossible with NAT issues and the game being two years old.

Welp, never change, Ubisoft.

Then why still play them? You've played all 8-9 Assassins Creeds, think all of them (bar 1) are bad, yet continue to play them?

Sounds a lot like this.
Probably is, that's why. If this is it, why wouldn't it be at E3 2016? I mean, games don't need to be near finished for Ubisoft to show them off.

In every AC game, you can play with the language the game is set in.
Maybe they're going to do the Fallout 4 way, announce at e3, release in the holidays 2017.
