Assasin's Creed PC Q&A

IGN: In a previous release it was mentioned you're bringing four new kinds of missions to the PC version, what are they? And just to be clear, these missions are the side-quest type correct? You're not talking about four new main quest assassination targets?

Charles Beauchemin: You are right; we are talking about 4 new investigation missions: archer assassination, rooftop race challenge, merchant stand destruction challenge and escort challenge. The archer assassination requires the player to assassinate the archers in a dedicated zone without being seen. In the rooftop race challenge, the player will meet an informer and will have a set amount of time to reach a second informer. In the merchant stand destruction, some merchants have ties to the assassination target and their activities must be stopped by Altaïr. Finally, in the escort challenge, the player needs to securely escort a fellow Assassin from point A to point B.

More stuff added to the PC including DX10 support and the ability to use your 360 controller! The new challenges should prevent the half an hour play time also. The requirements are getting up there but most you should be able to run it. Not too much now but here's more IGN: Assassin's Creed PC Q&A

Can't wait for this one, minimum requirements are high but I think I'll be alright. It says 2.6 GHz Pentium D, I have the same but at 3.0 GHz

how does it play on the X360 if the PC specs are so high?

This game sounds really fun, but because of that i wonder if they have done a crappy job with the PC port

I played this through on the PS3 and I will let you know first hand that it is a very fun game, with an interesting twist of a story (although the end is a bit of a mind f@@k).

However, the pre-assassination missions (crap you have to do to be able to assassinate someone) can..WILL become "samey" to you. As much as I loved running through the streets it does get somewhat old/annoying near the end of the game (many have complained of this not just me).
The VO's are eh.. but doable for the most part.

Overall a very good game and definitely worth it.

Jumping off the top of the German church (highest point in the game I believe) is fun.

btw, another "con" is when you learn the attack move "counter attack" winning street battles (or any battle for the most part except against the über soldiers) is not that difficult anymore.
