By going about things slowly & only killing people covertly (ie avoiding an out & out fight), you'll find the assassination much easier.

Im with you but you gotta kill the guards F'in with the citizens. Thats how you get them on your side. I am not just getting into massive fights. But I imagined it would be like Hitman and you would only kill like the 9 hits. Thats it. I mean you are easily killing 50 people/hit when you take into consideration all the helping of the villagers and the guys you come across on the roofs. Plus when your walking down an alley and a guard passes with no one else around you know you gotta stick him too....

I have gotten through the first 3 assasinations. No real problems yet although it took like 3 tries for the second guy when he throws you in that pit with like 7 dudes.

u could fight with like 20 guards all u do is block and counter attack its so easy

There's so many different kills in this game.

I just cut both of someones arms off then proceeded to decapitate him... Wow.

How are you supposed to assasinate the guy performing the execution?

One of those stumbling, sickly pains in the ass bumped into me and pushed me into one of the guards and I was outed. So they surrounded me and I just killed them one by one until it was his turn to attack...needless to say a quick counter and he was done.

Did anyone climb up the thing on the right and dive down on his ass? Thats what I was going to try before the weird guy pushed me.

this game is just kinda repetitive.. but it has some real nice animations.. i'd still give the sequel a shot

i just spent 2 hrs roaming around the city with no clue where i'm going... i know i need to get back to the bureau but i cant seem to find it.

does anybody have a trick or two on how to read the map or compass whatever?

this is why i can never go hiking or camping.

There's a button (I haven't played in a few months) in the map screen that brings up a key-- find that & it should tell you what's what on the map.

If you don't see it, reply to this thread & I'll check when I'm home Saturday.
