If this is legit, then I'm up for it. Red Dead Redemption proved that early 20th century America was a great setting for a game, so why not early Colonial America? Cue The Last of the Mohicans score!

Yeah, it's a fantastic idea. I thought I wouldn't be interested in the American Revolution, but after seeing the character design/background, I'm all for it.

I like the idea but not really AC that much (I mean I do not like AC very much. Not that it isnt very AC). Maybe I need to play the newer ones.

I hope not. I loved how AC had a historical vibe to it that could only be found by being placed in another country and culture.

Would this somehow not place us in another historical setting/culture? Image IPB

I think what s/he means is....America doesn't have a culture and its history ain't worth telling. Did I get that right, android?

America has no culture other than hamburgers, and there history  can be summarized by the word violance...nah I'm just trolling.

This would actually be extremely awesome, assuming its early 1800s it is the time where guns are still mostly ineffective, and we get to see that transition to modern combat. I still can't wait for the final installment or actual conflict in modern era, or near modern.

Admittedly, America wouldn't be my first choice for an historical setting either, having grown up with American history my entire life. On the other hand, I think by giving us a Native American protagonist, it adds a great alternate viewpoint. I think it has alot of potential.

I was actually confused at first, because alot of the hype around ACIII after Revelations first came out was that we wouldn't get a new ancestor, since the series has been building up Desmond's role as an assassin. I'm hoping they hit the perfect blend of memories and modern day gameplay. As the end of the series, we definitely need to see Desmond in a more prominent role than what he's been given so far.

I really hope this turns out to be false. That would be a really boring setting for ACIII. I was hoping for something in Asia, I mea they did mention a Mongolian assassin in AC2, why not go with that?

As much as it would diverge from the original story, I wouldn't mind seeing a hybrid third person stealth shooter (you know like the old MGS games) for the kind of Assassin's Creed final installment, featuring Desmond and the Templars.

This, if we have some Native American (father from europe while mother is an Indian perhaps?) that would be a blast.
We could visit some native villages, go for gold hunting and at last we can see some forests, mountains.  A companino pet who knows.
Maybe an old Mayan temple, an abondened ghost town, a large scale war scene.

I'll admit, I wanted an female Egyptian assassin instead, though.

Though Native American is good too.

Regarding some people's negative reaction to the American setting, I must respectfully disagree. Being I'm not American, I find America's history fascinating and quite rich, especially the Civil War.

The Assassins creed trilogy follows Desmond's ancestors. I think they have talked about the series still going past the trilogy, and taking place in more locations like Asia and Egypt though.

They really dropped the ball by not going with Revolutionary Paris here.

Yes and no. Our culture isn't as old or as interesting as that of Europe or Asia, or the Middle East. I thought Syria was a good place to start the series, then we went to Italy and Moscow and Turkey. Coming to America feels a little bland in comparison. There were many other countries they could have touched on. However, if they make Desmond's ancestor Native American, that might redeem it a bit, and it would give more explpination to Desmond's nondescript ethnic look, which I'm quite fond of.

I wouldn't say that Revolutionary America is a particularly bad setting. It's about as urbanized as the twelfth-century Levant was, maybe a bit less. You'll still have cities to wander through. There's plenty of opportunity to be sneaky, and more than a few amazing personalities to interact with.

But Paris would've been freaking transcendently awesome. One of the most massive cities in the world at the time, in complete and total ferment, populated by some of the Great Men of history and a helluva lot of "lesser" men just as interesting - Thomas Paine, Maximilian Robespierre, Louis Antoine de Saint-Just, Georges Danton, the abbé Sieyès, Charles Maurice de Talleyrand, Jacques-Louis David, Lazare Carnot, Charles François Dumouriez, Jean-Paul Marat, Gilbert du Motier de Lafayette, freaking Napoleon, and, of course, the royal family.

Who wouldn't want to sneak around the Champs de Mars to assassinate national guardsmen, tail the king on his way to Varennes, or even play through a series of Scarlet Pimpernel-themed missions? Damn it all.

How in the Hell can the main character be a native American?

Ezio is a European living in the 16th, so unless he travelled to pre-colonial America and nailed a native American woman then there is no way that Ezio's direct descendant can be a native American.

The only other possible explanation is that this character is not an ancestor of Desmond.

As long as the aliens are not in it. The whole "Those Who Came Before" thing kinda ruined the story fo me in ACII.

i think i've seen that picture before on the ubisoft forums, that was before revelations was even finished. back then they said it was just something they had screwed around with, but perhaps the idea has grown on them and they descided to make it anyway.
