Floating bodies...

[bethelyoda]

Just wanted to put an observation out there. One of my favorite methods of taking out the guards is to throw them off the cliff, or into the water. Well, I was working on the King Richard flags and was near the northwestern dock. I threw several guards into the water. After the fight was over, I noticed (for my first time) that the bodies floated back to the surface. Apparently, when you throw a guard (or potentially any NPC) in the water, they'll kick and splash for a few seconds, sink beneath the surface, and rise back in a dead man's float. I know that sometimes we get in such a rush during Assassin's Creed that we don't notice such details, but Kudos to Ubisoft for including that little animation.

However, it is rather sad that guards drown within 10 seconds....

Nice...maybe the added detail is that the guards cant swim or maybe they have so much armor on that they cant keep themselves afloat.
