AC3: Removing weapons? | Forums

[SixKeys]

I wonder if we'll finally be able to choose which weapons to carry and add or remove them at will. I just noticed in this pic from http://ca.ign.com/articles/2012/08/15/assassins-creed-iii-killing-in-the-caribbean]an IGN article[/URL] something I haven't seen in the trailers and demos: Connor has his bow on his back while wearing his captain's outfit.



Has this been in the demos and I just missed it or was it just added to the bullshot for coolness' sake? I hated having the crossbow on my back at all times in ACB and ACR and avoided purchasing it on replays. I don't know yet if the bow will be just as distracting in AC3, but I'd like to think we have the option of unequipping it at will.

It's possible, but it's just a bullshot, so don't get your hopes up.

Ya i avoided buying the crossbow too on some replays too. Not that it bothered me but I just liked the look better without it.

So I hope we do have the option to unequip stuff, Id personally like to go with just the hidden blade and axe if i had the option

Same. The stuff that stays hidden doesn't bother me, like poison darts, but when carrying huge weapons changes your character's appearance from subtle to obvious, it ruins the immersion.

If you notice in the video of E3, when Connor is going to take the skin of the deer, his bow is not there.

Maybe they are programming errors.

i really hope so too. maybe they are going that way since they are making ac3 slightly more rpg like and talking about customization a little

true, at least connors bow isnt as out of place as ezios cross bow, it was just sorta attached to his back, connor wears his bow in a cool way

They are getting out the poison and throwing knives

I think I remember ratfan posting that they did it to avoid clipping.

Same here. I always hated having to bring my sword and knife with me everywhere because I never use them and they just look cumbersome.

When it comes to fighting in AC3, the only weapons (besides throwing knives, bombs and all those other gadgets) I want to bring with me are my two best friends.

The Hidden Blade, and The Tomahawk.

twould be cool if unequipping was a thing you could do.
