The outcry of zealous fans may have been heard. I'm personally indifferent, I think the idea of social stealth would be interesting, but it wouldn't be bad to return to light and shadow. Either way, if this rumor turns out to be true, I wonder if they'll keep the whole fugitive thing...

From a company perspective, it's silly to change their mind this late.
I'll believe the change when/if I play the demo. Till then, I am not buying SCC.

I wouldn't mind waiting another year for it if they are returning to L&S gameplay.

Social Stealth looks good for AC(I haven't played my copy yet), but while it looks like an interesting concept for SC, I think it would be better for a SC spin-off.

Remember Dark Sector? How it was originally a sci-fi stealth game set in the distant future nearing completion, but it turned into a modern day Resident Evil 4 clone? It's possible.

Meh, its a rumor, so I personally think this isnt going to happen. Well, unless it becomes a rumor over at Teamxbox...then I'll believe it more, since they are mostly right when the rumors come around.

Wow that would be excellent, but it'd probably mean another delay as well. That doesn't matter though, it'd be worth it.

I'm sure the opinions, reviews and sales of Assassin's Creed have contributed to Ubi Ceo's not totally ignoring the outcries of the 'oldschool zealots' any longer.

At least, it's a (tiny) sign that the company still has some ears even in times of expensive next gen game development.

If the social stealth system is ****.. then yes change it, or fix it. I am not convinced that it was guaranteed a bad thing.. but HOPEFULLY what this does mean is that they are blending L&S with the SS they already had and are tweaking both.

Hopefully, they cancel SCC and redesign where the entire series is headed.

While thats a very good idea, it sounds a bit expensive, for Ubi that is.

Social stealth is assassians creed didnt even work. Assassians creed was a terrible game and if they try to clone AC in SC:C then its going to be worse. ill wait 5 years if i have to to have a true sequal to CT.




Thats nacho cheese........

I'm sure sales of SCC will tell anyone with half a brain that they need to bring the series back to its roots.

I'm all for innovating, but this is changing the core-most aspects of the series - it's no longer a stealth action series.

Woah, what was so wrong with the crowds/social stealth in AC? I cant really remember any glitches or anything like that. I thought they reacted pretty good to what was going on at all times. It worked in my copy of the game.

The problems with the game was just some of the enemy AI, and the repetitive side missions.

I cant tell how I know, or what my source is, as ive posted before (about a week ago), but the changes most likely will happen. Thats why ive been saying to hold all judgment on this game until more info is out.

I think some of you guys are looking way too much into what the rumor is saying. First of all, this is OXM. There rumors are never vindicated and second of all, wasn't there a thread recently on one of the developer's blogs talking about there has been changes but are sticking with the new formula? Either way, I think they're sticking the new look but changing up the gameplay because it looked TERRIBLE.

P.S. Assassin's Creed sold INCREDIBLY well.

The game was repetitive and the thrill of the chase was terrible. I was hoping for a game that would have my heart pounding when being chased by hundreds of guards...but instead like 3 are running after me and they go away when i jump in a hay basket.....wooohooo Roll Eyes.

Agree

Also, I don't believe there really is any "social stealth" in AC. You'll get recognised as an "infidel" and assassin at any given point, the logic behind which frequently escapes me, and blending in the crowds consists of walking around with the groups of scholars at certain locations. That feature is so stupid it makes me laugh.

Well, if you seem to be certain its not a rumor, do you know if it was talking about single player or multiplayer?
