Assassin's Creed: Unity Combat Revamped; Counter Removed

[VinWarrior]

In an interview on Ubisoft's site with Unity's Lead Game Designer, Alex Pedneault, it was revealed the combat system in-game has been done over with an entirely new design, and the basic Block has been removed, meaning players can no longer simply press a button at the right time to block.

 

Assassin's Creed: Unity's stellar debut at Xbox's E3 2014 Conference amazed many, fans and passersby alike, with an seemingly improved system, especially combat-wise. On Ubi.com, an interview was conducted with the man above, where he talked about the revamp in the fighting system in Unity. With a new engine, changes could be made, and one of the biggest is the removal of the basic Block. He said, “We still have counter moves like the parry, perfect parry and dodge but it is much harder to kill NPCs right away . . . Instead of simply pressing “B”, you now have to work for the kill." He also put emphasis on the idea of combat not being impossible, and that a small group of enemies shouldn't be too hard, but as they kept piling on, the player would have to develop new tactics and possibly evade the group. The spotlight then shifted to the new addition to Arno's arsenal, the Phantom Blade, acting as a hidden blade crossed with a Bow and Arrow system, which could prove useful for stealth, or for easy potshots.

Did you like the block system in the previous Assassin's Creed titles, or are you glad to see such an overpowered system stripped out from the game? Let me know below, thanks for reading!

i feel block should be there but one shouldn't be able to kill an enemy with a simple block followed an attack. it should take more than one block attack to kill an enemy but every time it happens , the enemie's life should decrease

[Guest Sam]

I personally loved the counter system in the previous games however I can understand the change. I just hope the new system can be somewhat perfected so that you can have battles with a lot of npc's and still come out on top.

[Guest Danahi]

I am happy that the infinite block is going to disappear. All you had to do was hold block and wait for an opening. Combat was too repetetive and easy this way. Can't wait to get my hand on a copy of Unity !

i liked the old combat system and this one also seems pretty good. i just hope they dont make it TO hard...
