Assassin's Creed 2 - Speculation and Spoilers

Mike Mosca · 11-17-2007, 06:59 AM

I made a nice little list of interesting things I have figured out while playing as Desmond that i believe really set the stage for Assassin's Creed 2 plot.

Most of the Altair past plot can be seen paralleling Desmonds.

(Just the Facts, skip to the end if you want)

-Vidic is a templar, just like Altair's master (whose name escapes me)
-Vidic stares out the window when telling you to go in the Animus, Altair's master stares out the window when telling you of your next target
-There are 9 Targets for you to assassinate as Altair, and there are 9 project leads of the facility that holds Desmond (facility name escapes me...lol)
-The crusades are happening in Altair's time, while in Desmond's time it seems there was another war in which left many countries uninhabitable, America possibly being one of them (mentioned in lucy's e-mails how the Mexican president was increasing border patrol from AMERICAN refugees. Oh the irony?)
-Obviously Desmond is not the last Assassin, and neither is lucy as she is communicating with them in cryptic e-mails disguised as modern spam about increasing penis size, lmao. (to read the message go into Lucy's deleted files and click on the "??" Notice how the letters are in caps? Thats how you read the hidden message)
-Subject #16 (Desmond is #17) started losing touch with reality from prolonged exposure to Animus. (and went insane)

I have a lot more little tidbits of info but i really cant confirm them, they are just really educated guesses.

(Speculation)

Assassin's Creed 2 will most likely take place in a modern day crusade (present time). As the player, you will be controlling Desmond the majority of the time and be reunited with the Assassin's Guild. You will occasionally have "break periods" from the present and play in the past in which Desmond begins to lose touch with reality (quite the opposite of Assassin's Creed as you had "break periods" from the past and played in the present)
Much like Assassin's Creed, you will have to assassinate 9 targets, most likely the project leads, some which may or may not be in possession of ancient artifacts.

I don't Expect many replies, but perhaps when assassin's creed 2 is announced (and if this topic still exists) i can find it and be like HA TOLD YA SO!

Comments?

Modern day assassin would be awesome, like in different cities... if you could like jump off buildings, cars, skydive... that would be cool!

MDKM 739 · 11-18-2007, 01:40 AM

sorry guys i probably sound stupid and i don't know where i missed it, but these emails how do i acess them and when, can i do it after the game... and also, i will probably have to re-start the game to get Conversanoinalist right.

MDKM 739 · 11-18-2007, 01:45 AM

nevermind sorry found out, but how come i cant go to lucy's does it have to do with the pen i jacked cause i only got one from vidic.

xIIlucidianIIx · 11-18-2007, 04:15 AM

Woah... This is f*cking awesome!
That's really all I can say... I can't wait for future games, simply for the storyline. This sh*t is deep!

It is a trilogy..

Who128 · 11-18-2007, 05:29 AM

Nice Speculation! I think it might take a turn like 1984, where you have to overthrow the oppressive government, and its 9 leaders maybe. Telescreens everywhere spitting out propaganda everywhere. Man they should make a game like 1984.... Great book.

soopastylin · 11-18-2007, 10:13 AM

Hmm, I think it's possible to have an action in modern times, because, look, Desmond tells Lucy that he was in that 'farm' thing, so this is some kind of dunno... tradition? Hidden Assassin's guild? Anyway, imo that kind of guild is like Shaolin - if you do not start lessons in young age like 5-8 then it's senseless so if Desmond escaped from the 'farm' when he was 16 - I think he learned much - and he have Altair's blood, so on, a talent.

Mike Mosca · 11-18-2007, 07:55 PM

It is a shame this game will not catch on like halo did as no multiplayer exists...

however this is by far the best single player story to date.

xIIlucidianIIx · 11-18-2007, 11:17 PM

I'm sure it would never happen, but it would be awesome to see something like a co-op mission with multiple targets within a time limit. Or competitive, who can get the most targets, etc. Maybe even have customizable assassin's. Like I said, it'll never happen, but it's fun to dream...

Deyankees1 · 11-18-2007, 11:47 PM

you never kno, thats wat everyone said about Bioshock and now Bioshock2 will 85% have MP. AC2 might but aslong as the singleplayers is asgood SCRATCH that better then part 1 of AC then Im fine.

Mike Mosca · 11-19-2007, 12:34 AM

well there is a glitch in the game that makes it so there is a secret co op mode!!111

well not really...just a clone of altair hahah

superdawg2009 · 11-19-2007, 03:00 AM

There's actually a good chance you could be in japan. in Noisy Neighbour's post, that link, i think it's where i read that. they make a good point.

Fire Mage · 11-19-2007, 09:59 PM

Yep it might be in Japan. At least a part of the game. Most likely it will be the modern part of the game, OR:

You might still play as Altair. And what you do is try to travel and destroy the different artifiacts to stop the Templars. At the same time Altair begins to go crazy because of the knowledge (as Mualim said at the end of the game, "You can, but you won't").

That would be really cool if done right.

D1SC0NNECTED · 11-20-2007, 03:03 AM

A theory I haven't seen considered yet is that perhaps Desmond had another ancestor that was also an assassin, but in a different time and place, who also had a run in with the templars or the apples.

or write to a company and get them to get the rights to the engine and make a game from it. (like how FPS games that came out in the 2 years after Doom 3 were made with that engine)

D1SC0NNECTED · 11-20-2007, 03:11 AM

I'm not sure I'd want them to make it ninja, as much I like ninjas. Especially with Ninja Gaiden coming sometime in the future. Isn't part of the reason that Assassin's Creed is so impressive and fresh due to its setting?

Ninjas - overdone
Crusades - not done enough

DrChiz · 01-06-2008, 06:14 PM

i think ur wrong because its a trilogy , there not going to make the second of 3 killing the project leaders and that being it. And really is there any proof that Project #16 lost touch with reality, how do we know he wasnt japanese or something. Im kinda curious what the drawing above the bed is.
