The horses I have right now don't
I think you can only sprint in the Frontier or Homestead.

Well at least it isn't just me. The game seems to be moving in a positive direction even though it took almost 5 sequences to get there.

I swear why do open world games make rigid linear missions?
I believe, like previous AC games, synching opens up more side missions
I don't even log in to uplay. The sync points just reveal more of the surrounding area.

This game has such a beautiful world, but apart from that is terribly average.
The chase scene in sequence 8 is ridiculous, as said above, I honestly think sequence 8 is the worst sequence in the whole series.

Double assassination with the hidden blades. Doesn't matter how many times I do it, still looks awesome.
But yeah, I agree. Pretty damn bad. I had to actually vent my frustration by yelling at my TV during that mission.
Just tackle him.

Reading through the comic(s) that came with the Ubiworkshop edition. They're pretty good. Glad I decided to read them before getting too far in 3.
Had the same problem with Revelations and Brotherhood in that if you fail the 100% synch stuff there's no chance to restart the mission unless you quit and reload again. Half the time I was failing them aswell. Maybe I just suck but I hate to think that I was missing out content.
You could always go back to the last checkpoint if you miss one, but some really a pain to do and it not even worth it.
Yea the world is gorgeous. The Frontier is quite stunning, having just entered it for the first time. On the other hand, it's hard to find Boston as impressive as Italy.

I like boston, and I love how ambitious it is, but I agree, Italy is equally impressive in the ezio games.

Seriously game, stop informing me I have unlocked a Shard of Eden, a new weapon and an item for the homestead. That happened three sequences ago.
No, his point was that Italy is far more impressive than Boston. IMO, Boston is a little stale. New York on the other hand? Love it.
The small pox ridden area on the west is great and really adds to the atmosphere

That's because renaissance Italy was an epitome of art, culture and architecture whereas 1775 Boston is a shithole pulled out of the mud.
That was my point haha. They're both expertly realized however.
That doesn't apply for Forlì, lol.
Sorry to keep harping on this trading thing.
So I went into the trading menu to try selling all of these beaver things through the convoy system.
Problem is my initial tutorial convoy was attacked and now I can't send another one, or at least I can't figure out how. Do I have to go find that attacked convoy or something to send another? I cannot figure it out.

You have to craft another one through the crafting menu.

I don't know I agree. Italy is more unique, but I love the accuracy of boston.
Also surprised that after 5 sequences of tutorials, they never said how to hire assassins.

Sometimes I feel like Indiana Jones in that famous market scene, when you attract the attention of an enemy, he starts to confront you and you just shoot him in the face before he's able to harm you.

You guys weren't kidding when you said this game was glitchy. I've gotten stuck and fallen through geometry more times in Sequence 1 than in all 4 previous AC games combined.

Haha that is so true in this game! I didn't think of it till your post!

What am I supposed to do with the pelts I collected by killing animals (except selling them)?
I want to make myself an awesome bear hat and rabbit-pants.
Anyone know an answer?

They show up on the map screen, don't they?
Oh...how did I missed that? lol...
Still, would have been nice to get them to pop-up when you click on the right stick or something like that.
Warning: Conner never wore rabbit .. pants.
Me too. I'm focusing on liberation missions in boston at the moment. Incidentally, is this how you recruit allies and send them on missions to free other colonies ? I sent Jean out by himself and he got messed up lol
In the crafting menu I saw you can make a racoon hat. There's prolly more but I didn't look in to it much.

Is it just me, or do Boston's viewpoints disappear? I did about 2/3rd's of them in the early game, but now I can't see any and large chunks of my map are still obscured.

I just did this, and not really sure all the issues. I got on a horse, jumped off, tackled the dude. Game ova! I said "That was what everyone complained about."

Finished the comics. They're essential reading for anyone who is remotely interested in the modern-day aspect of AC. Good stuff.
Back to the game.

Finished it. Uh...
.
That was a bit of an anticlimax
It's no better (probably worse) on PS3. Some of these battles I took part in had to have been running at sub 20 FPS and that was in the Frontier. God only knows how bad it would have been if it was in Boston.
