The Hidden Blade Assassin's Creed in Depth

Tips and Basically, a video guide on the hidden blade, is a good idea.
I want to see how you go with a hidden blade, you type of kill, and etc, your tips.
Good luck friend!

Here's my channel. http://www.youtube.com/user/DracoX872?feature=mhum

You'll get the idea, but I plan on making an In-Depth Hidden Blade Video Guide

This is why we have Ian and Stab.

Why'd you unsubscribe me on Youtube? And also, who's Ian and Stab

They're the reason we're here.

Hahahahahahaha this made me laugh sooo hard.
Oh god, this made my day.

"who's ian and stab" haha, good joke. As if the whole world didn't know who Ian and stabguy were.

Anyway, Draco, try not to be TOO humble...

I highly recommend checking out there videos, good inspiration there. I havent seen a kill animation video on youtube. What I would like to see is a video dedicated to each weapon type to show all the kill animations possible. I might do it with heavy weapons, if you want I can make a sample video on what I mean and you can complete it.

Also it doesnt have to be just animations but different ways to use that weapon, eg I like to grab people with the shortblade out and then slit their throat, seen in a few of my videos. Also I think there are different counters depending on what weapon the enemy is using, I know this is true for heavy weapons.

lol

lolololol. sarcasm doesn't work well on the internetz

And disrespect doesn't work here.

Oh and btw, I'm doing an in depth guide on the hidden blade. Its going to be more on regular fighting than jumping of towers, mainly due to the fact that eagle strikes won't help in regular fights, just showing ur mad pro assassination skillz.

Things that I did so far

-Talk about morale
-Talk about deflect
-What types of ways to kill which people.
-Air assassinations
-Counters
-Uses for my "Momentum Assassinations" and "Side-step assassinations"
-Tricks and Tips

===Only some stuff Ian and Stab covered are going to be in the video. Things like Super-Blending may have a short mention.

I'm like 1/3 done with the video so....

+1080p video quality

Draco, you need to look at the site more. There have already been dozens of videos and discussions on each of these things. I'm just saying that you should look more into the community and see what we're like. We're much more than any other forum site.

The video isn't for this website you tard. I'm gonna barf it on to a wiki page

1) Be civil, come on.
2) But the videos on those topics are already on youtube.

Actually look up Assassins Creed 2 Hidden Blade Guide on youtube. A huge amount of them will be actual game guides/walk throughs for assassins creed 2.

Now since google is awesome u can use the - key to avoid all those walkthrough videos which are all made by Electronic Elation. So go ahead and type in

assassins creed 2 hidden blade guide -ElectronicElation

Craaaaaaap, no hidden blade guides. I kno right, pretty gay. :'( At least no hidden blade guides for AC2. So thats the main reason. An hidden blade guide that goes more in-depth would be pretty intresting for you guys to see, but I really want to put it on wiki.

I think he means stabguys uses for the hiddenblade video on youtube

I don't know what you mean by "hidden blade guide". Explain it so we know for sure.

He means a guide on the hidden blade (weapon) what did you think he meant?

Well I'm not sure if he meant moves only with the hidden blade like stunts or fighting with it or something. It seems so basic, and if it's what I'm thinking of, then I'm pretty sure Stab and/or Ian did it already.

Haha, I already made a "hidden blade guide" last year...

Ha! I knew I saw it somewhere!

I loved that video. Lol, I see it every now and then to remmember what you can do with the hidden blade.

But that video is less of a guide, but more of a moves list or an owner's manual if you will . It runs over pretty much every move in AC2. I'm talking about an actual guide on how to fight guards, tricks to use on them... etc.

So, its not going to be anything like me stating the move thats going to be done, and how to do it. It will however have some info on how to do some moves for the really really beginners. Stuff like ledge assassinations, hiding spot assassinations. But the main reason I put clips of the different types of assassinations is to give tips/ hints on when and where to use them; they are of course accompanied by the controls to do them mainly to remind people what to press.

So no, I'm gonna stick to originality and try to stray from what others videos show.

Alright, NOW it makes sense.

You going to try it with other weapons? im considering making a Heavy Weapon video

Ian and Stab are the best AC2 players eva!! They are the reason that this site is becoming so famous..=]

You mean best AC players? Both games! (Soon it will be 3)

Now that actually sounds like a good idea! Go for it bro

I could possibly compete with Ian or Stab but i play PC and it comes out February. I might have no chance, but if you really think about there's an edge to how good you can be in singleplayer. Many of us have already hit that edge.

Multiplayer? I have no idea. Hope brotherhood is gonna have a balanced Multiplayer...

HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!!!

...Have...have you been drinking?

Anyone could easily compete with stabguy and ian on multiplayer level. Its completely different, take MGS for example. There are many really good speed runners that are famous on youtube and other youtubers who are famous in single player. When it comes to online, no one has heard of them.

As for videos, anyone can compete with Ian and stab, although I wouldnt call the whole thing a competition anyway. I know I dont make videos to get popularity over them and i doubt they do either

I think that Ian and Stab should compete with anyone who requests. As long as they can work out times. Hopefully we'll be able to play 1-on-1 in ACB. If we don't, then maybe we can make private slots and let only Ian/Stab play with the requested player while the other members watch patiently. Well, I hope we can do this. I think we'd all enjoy the experience of playing with the masters of THB/AC. Anyone want to help make this happen?

Well id like to play against you guys but I will be playing on the EU region if there is a region lock, and chances are there will be

Isn't the internet supposed to be worldwide? They shouldn't keep game connections limited to specific regions.

Yet they do, they do for MGO and Socom, but for some games there is no region lock, im hoping this game has no region lock

What Ubisoft games are online and which of those are region-locked? Does anyone know?

I didn't know multiplayer games were region locked? I was playing the multiplayer on Splinter Cell Conviction and I think the guy I was playing against was american.

Well the multiplayer of ACB was created by the same people who did the Splinter Cell multiplayer, so that's a good sign. Maybe it won't be region-locked.

Lol, it deviated already. Hey guys, shows over. Free-running in AC1 and AC2 was different and probably its going to change slightly for brotherhood from AC2.

I hope you realize when it comes to multiplayer we all are basically on the same level in it. Aka 0. None of us have never played it meaning its not just gonna be based on Free-running. Theres going to be a huge difference in catching a borgia messenger and a real person.

We never said it would be the same or that we'll dominate everyone. I mean, we WILL dominate everyone, cuz we're THB. But we're not going to go in over-confident.

THATS THE SPIRIT

i think one's ability in a multiplayer setting is very, very different from a single player setting. most vids on this site rely heavily on the predictability of game mechanics in single player mode. much of that predictability disappears when other humans are around.

im not sure how much im going to enjoy the acb multiplayer experience. i might love it, i might not. if i dont, the reality is that im not going to play it often enough to be particularly good.

Hey Ian, when Brotherhood comes out lets make a clan for THB! . I guess thats possible, I mean if there is like team gamemode then it would be possible..

That's the plan. I was going to reply to that topic but it has strayed from the subject of clans.

If Brotherhood supports explicit clan tags, use THB. Otherwise, if it allows you to pick your player name, prefix it with [THB]. For example, my name will be: [THB] stabguy

I hope they don't just use our Xbox/PS3 gamertags. That would suck.

I'm crossing my fingers for clans. I've only played the downloadable game Tango Down on Xbox Arcade and I actually set my clan name as THB.
Other than that, I've never played a game with clans.
Does anyone know if the Splinter Cell series has clans? If it does, then ACB will most likely have it too.

If I have to use my PSN Phatmole I will be so pissed off, I want Jack Reacher

Splinter cell conviction uses your gamertag in multiplayer, I don't know about any clans though.

Damn. Well then I'm putting all my money on No Clans for ACB.

ACB could always be like the testing grounds for AC multiplayer, you never know AC3 might have a really good version of it that includes a clan system

Cool, deviated from the topic... anyways, i'm done with the guide. Stab, if you want me to put a box that says TheHiddenBlade .com at the beginning of the video, just ask.

Oh and I'll post the link here to the video.

Sadly thanks to Movie Maker's suckish-ness, I don't know if I can upload 1080p. Says my files are corrupted. I think I can fix it. If not, i already saved the video in 720p so....

I love the short blade! Please make a vid with tip for it, if you have the time of course.
