GAMEPLAY details:
- There will be a total of 200 missions throughout the game, with a variety of 16 DIFFERENT mission types. This is AWESOME to hear since the original game only had 5 and they became VERY annoying.
- No more 'Eavesdropping' and 'pickpocketing' missions!
- There will be 12 different weapons, which can be snatched from enemies with the touch of a well place button press.
- New Unique attack-types. If you're unarmed, you will be able to throw DIRT in your enemies eyes to temporally blind them.
- Leonardi Di Vinci will have a major role in the game...as your WEAPONS and GADGET inventor. I'm sure he's in Heaven going 'What the hell is an Assassin's Creed 2!?'
- Besides just making sense, The ability to swim in AC2 (Altair couldn't swim in the first game..LAME) adds to the gameplay. See an enemy on the edge of a dock? Ezio can reach up, grab him, snatch him into the water, and kill him!
- The game's mission structure has received a TOTAL OVERHAUL. No longer do you 'Find Assassin's bureau, find enough information, report back to bureau to get the feather, kill the target, escape back to the bureau'. AC2 will have more an 'GTA' approach to missions, with various characters who will give you your missions.
- Italy will be 'connected'. While there will still be horses in the game, you will no longer have to ride a million miles to the other cities like you did in the first game, though there will still be countryside areas to add to replay and for side-missions.
- When performing the 'leap of faith', you can now jump into more than just 'random' stacks of hay that just happen to be under the a building's ledge. You can now leap into the water, a fisherman's 'catch' for the day, and piles of wole, etc.
- Remember how collecting the flags in the first game did nothing, not even adding anything to the ending? This time around, collecting those extra items actually result in, in-game bonuses! Yes!
- The game will support Trophies, but no news about any Home support, though Far Cry 2, so you might expect that a MAJOR title like AC2 will.
- The 'marionette' control scheme returns for AC2. Good news if you liked it and bad news if you hated it.
- A 'night and day' cycle has been added to the game.
- You can now assassinate enemies from hiding spots, ALTHOUGH enemies can now attack hiding spots with their weapons if they become suspicious.
- The 'climbing' system has been updated with a new 'leap and grab' maneuver.
- The health system has been updated, while you will slowly regain your health, you will also be able to find help who quickly heal you faster around the city.
STORYLINE details:
- The Battle between the Templars and the Assassins continues in AC2.
- Desmond, of course will appear in the game, but no word on Katherine Bell's character.
- Ezio comes from a family of wealth and nobility.
- A expert Historian was brought in the from the University of Notre Dame to help correctly map out historical the events of the game.
