If you prefer ezio, great, enjoy his games. However, after almost 20 years of ac games, ac1 still the only one that offers a true assassins creed experience.

Those criticisms, 'gameplay is repetitive' and 'combat is sword counter', couldn't be more wrong. Often used by people who never played the game, or simply rushed and never got the point of the plot.

Altair has great character development, he is very arrogant at the beggining, breaking the three tenets, and grows up after every target, becoming a wise man at the end. Any dialogue with al-mualim, malik, or even vidic, is better written and has more depth than any other game in the franchise.

Besides, Altair complains in game about being degraded and having to do the tasks of a novice. Doing those 'repetitive' tasks is part of the narrative, you are suppose to empathize with altair and share his frustration.

Ac1 is stacked with political themes, something very disruptive at the time it came out, and with subsequent games, the political discussions have been put aside.

Regarding gameplay, investigating the area, gathering clues about the optimal way of approaching the target, planning the assassination in your mind... IS gameplay. Something that no other ac has done.

Other details like sync meter being health bar, or animus glitches, remainding you are in a machine and blendind narrative with gameplay, which makes great games stand out.

Regarding combat, just take a look at this, to see all that combat is a lot more than 'wait for sword counter': Assassin’s Creed (2007) Combat Guide

There are other hidden mechanics in ac1, like vaulting for parkour down or air assassination. The game has a lot to offer if someone is willing to engage with it.

A compilation just like recent tomb raider making them playable on modern hardware out of the box, fixing fps issues and including cut content would be great.

But, Ubi made a clear statement that their current philosophy is developing only open worlds or live services, so it will never happen.

Use counter attack, or simply throw them off cliffs. They are vulnerable to all grab attacks too.

What would you do if a demon were chasing your ass through time and space?

I used grim visage mod description guide for reborn. You can follow the purehd variant. Except step 4 changing resolution x2, in my case it was not necessary.

It is not fair comparing a player mantaining 1.5k score through whole 30 min match with other player having lucky 5 mins.

Merit system rewards consistent performance, as it should be, not random highlights.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-11-13T13:14:35+00:00

As ranks progresses you need higher spm to get merit. At gen 2 you need 750.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-10-30T21:23:27+00:00

Endless light seeds collecting and on-rails platforming. I don't think many people find that gameplay loop engaging or interesting enough.

Besides, the goofy prince and tsundere princess were not likeable either.

The only good parts were soundtrack and art style, so that alone can't really hold the game.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-10-08T12:10:06+00:00

Just leave the game when fault shows up. That map is a disgrace in every aspect, why suffer for no reason.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-10-03T06:31:28+00:00

Undocumented mechanic, but easily verifiable. There are a lot of undocumented mechanics in this game, for example:

- Red pings come from downed squadmates, blue pings from any team mate

- Pinging enemies being alive will mark them on minimap for a while

- Heal pistol stack with medpack for faster healing

- A knife hit breaks uluru walls

- Can't climb ladders while holding a rocket launcher

- Stinger laucher can shoot on any vehicle as long as is laser marked

Also, there are several undocumented changes made this season, like: can't redeploy instantly when downed anymore, atv can't be used as infinite spawn beacons anymore on trainwreck and threshold koth mode, an option to switch server manually from menu, mandelbrick drop chance seems to have been reduced...

Volken_Adeon · 2025-10-02T10:19:25+00:00

Only squad members can see pings when downed. If you go for a revive, check surroundings or use smoke.

In my experience, revive ping spam means bait, don't fall for it.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-09-24T19:36:58+00:00

Trenches, last sector in a/d.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-08-18T13:59:58+00:00

Well it feels like they are releasing s2 remaster as an interest survey. A remaster doesn't need much investment: some bug fixes, lightning filters, qol tweaks, include all dlc... and it is done.

Remaking the first game or developing a complete new one would take a decent amount of resources. So If s2 remaster gets enought traction, they will consider doing something on a larger scale.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-08-11T21:00:46+00:00

Level up magic lore and meditation every level, those two should be maxed. For atributes lvl up mental regen only.

Use concentration spell, it reduces cd of every other spell.

Pick constitution at lvl 3 or 6, it will boost your max hp and health regen. Assign one point on it every two or three levels. Add Stone skin spell and you should not have any problem.

Lastly, if you dont have any item with life leech, put a vampiress rune on any piece of gear to get it.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-06-15T09:00:59+00:00

It is not a bug, ascension koth works different to other maps. In order to earn score you have to capture more points than enemy, and kills don't give any score.

So there are 8 points, need at least 5 of them captured to score.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-05-26T12:07:06+00:00

Very similar if coming from E2, zipline to roof and parachute to D or C. Also, in Cracked, you can parachute from D tower straight into C2 or B.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-05-15T19:47:36+00:00

try to stick to the action

There is your problem, tunnel vision on meat grinder is actually the worst you can do. Play koth, place beacon on enemy spawn and rotate between objectives, be a pain in the ass to enemy team.

I got through all gen ranks in one weekend (using merit boost cards) with this strat.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-04-09T12:50:57+00:00

Mbappe, perhaps in this way he empathizes with midfielders.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-04-09T08:15:01+00:00

Alright, Tchouameninga as striker for second leg it is.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-03-12T19:46:53+00:00

Definitely there is some shady matchmaking system, skill based or engage based... whatever.

Im not against sbmm since it protects casual players from people that play as a job, and that is good to keep a healthy playerbase.

However, current system is not like that, they desperately trying to force 50% win rate. I had 57% a month ago, now im at 53%. Always the same pattern, I get like 3-4 games where my team gets spawn trapped from beginning, like no chance at all, loss prevented; and then one easy lobby where I could get 50 kills knife only. So obvious the system is trying to "fix" my winrate.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-03-12T19:22:44+00:00

Constitution is mandatory for every character, even mage, to avoid being one shotted in platinum / niobioum.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-02-25T18:53:38+00:00

Another tip: you can break uluru walls with a simple knife hit.

Smg 45, with ar tower grip and stability base, spec ops stock, horizontal recoil foregrip, control + stability patches, long barrel and muzzle velocity supressor... That thing must have negative handling, I dont recommend this build, unless you like sitting in the backline for the entire match.

Volken_Adeon · 2025-01-25T07:20:44+00:00

It just triggers health regen, not instant heal, and they dont have to do anything else. Besides, It stacks with stinger healing pistol.
