Online market research group Global Market Insite<\/a> have launched a survey that polls users on possible features for Assassin’s Creed 3. There appears to be a secret and \/ or magical combination of preliminary answers to access the relevant bit of the survey – which I’ve not yet cracked – but Eurogamer<\/a> has published a convenient synopsis of the information available, which I’ve copy-pasted below.<\/p>\n

Participants are apparently polled on the following features:<\/p>\n

– An upgrade to the assassin’s blade that increases the fluidity and speed of free-running.
– An enhanced Eagle Vision: see the patrol paths of guards, spot clues to complex navigation puzzles, detect when characters are lying during interrogations, etc.
– An intuitive crafting tool that lets you create custom bombs from dozens of ingredients found throughout the game world.
– Tactical use of a variety of bombs suited to unique contexts and situations (smoke, poison, flash, explosive, etc.).
– An additional objective where you and your Assassins guild fight against the Templars to gain control of a city, district by district.
– Playing as a new Assassin, in a different historical time period.
– A continuation of Ezio’s story as the leader of the Assassins, set outside of Italy.
– Deeper connectivity between all the Assassin’s Creed projects (eg. an action you make on the Facebook game will impact your game experience on the console; events that you read about in the comics will be related to the storyline of the videogames, etc.).
– Online cooperative mode.
– Offline cooperative mode.
– The availability of new maps for the multiplayer.
– A choice of additional multiplayer characters with new skill-sets.
– Playing new multiplayer modes.
– A deeper team-based multiplayer experience (guilds \/ squads that have common objectives, new tools for clan management, etc.).
– A customisation of the multiplayer experience (logos, avatars, objects, team names, etc.)<\/p>\n

Looks like Ubisoft is taking this multiplayer stuff seriously – for which, I think, we can issue a collective “SQUEEE.” Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood’s multiplayer modes make up just about the most devious experience since Team Fortress 2’s spy wars.<\/p>\n
