I just realized the guy he was talking to in the beginning was supposed to be Haytham Kenway
wait what
@@rahul-qm9fi if you have ac3 remastered there is a concept art picture of haythem kenway that has the same design as the guy the Assassin talks too in the beginning
@@ronswanson5974 oh ok. thanks
Thank go he didn’t look like that fam
just now? I mean he's got the outfit and the hat which looks similar to haytham's so I ain't suprised that he was haytham.
Damn i wish the actual gameplay of AC3 was this fluid.
Edit: No shit this is pre rendered lol.
It never be if we all did not demand ac 3 that much it so sweet and taste like wine and pie
blood assassin 928 wtf did you just say?
@@jessestumpf190 what the
@@jessestumpf190 I'll translate that into english for you: "It will never be, because we all demanded for AC 3 so much. It wasn't able to be developed into the sweetness and taste of wine and pie."
It's not possible. It's easy to make concept footage look good because there are no variables - it's not the same with actual gameplay
I wonder if people realize that "gameplay" shown in the first few minutes is actually a pre rendered cutscene.
most people don't apparently
It's a proof of concept, distilling their end goal so that they have a clear vision. So not coded gameplay that requires lots of work but rather the art and animation department putting something together for the brass to discuss.
@@martinhubinette2254 i wish ubisoft had implemented most of the things witnessed in this video
@@zorex. they did implement MOST things, don't you mean you wish they'd implement EVERYTHING shown ?
@@DreadNawght i meant the smaller details, like how the tree branches have physics when connor swings in them
ac3 doesn't really have those tree physics, making connor seem weightless at times
That early concept design should've made it into the game as an alternate outfit
it did as achilles colonial outfit
It would be cool, as a master assassins outfit
@@ManLikeEddy That's a completely different outfit, compare again.
It does look really nice, I wonder if it is a mod?
OG Paul they are nowhere near the same, the colour palette is totally different
This pre-rendered prototype design for Connor actually yields my favourite AC costume design in existence... it's so sleek
But it's almost the same. It only lacks those native american tribal things and the costume itselt looks much more european
i think it’s the achilles outfit
If you ask me , I think this design even could have worked for the modern times AC game . I can see how it can blend with the crowd and at the same time be recognized as an assassin.
I kinda disagree since his final outfit are my favorite Assassin robes, but I will agree on them being very sleek and just plain cool.
@@BatMane95 I disagree with my three years old self too. Connor's retail robes are also my favourite these days ahah
I really hope Desmond saga is remade one day and that AC3 remake plays like this. The smoothness of this render is just beautiful. I'd love to see real AC gameplay with fluent combat, traversal and animations like this.
Ubisoft be like: ahahahah wait you serious?
I mean.... Ac 3's animations were top notch during the time, Ubi gave everything they could on the animations with mocaps. I personally think that it still has one of the most satisfying combat animations even by today's standards
This is brutal, Connor even scalped that redcoat
That was a bit out of character, even for him.
@@jmal Probable back then he was much more brutal and initiative. Even take an actual command, while in AC3 he did it because he was lucky (or unlucky) to be there and with necessity to kill somebody or not let die somebody. Hell, Connor in release dont even care about whole revolution thing, he cares only about his revenge and rebels/americans used this
@@darykeng No, it's because Mohawks aren't known for scalping their enemies. It's a thing they simply don't do.
Ubisoft did say Connor was originally gonna do this. And well, we can agree they did the right thing to scrap that
@Xbox One I think you getting Mohawk crossed with Tomahawk. They used knives when scalping people, and when he says Mohawks, he means the Mohawk people.
Little history lesson here if you care to learn something interesting about scalping.
@Jun Malabanan is right. In truth, most first nations cultures didn't do the whole scalping thing. We only really started doing it after the Europeans put an active bounty on all first nations people that could be claimed by handing in scalps to an official. So we did it as more of an ironic justice for what was done to us. Another fun fact, the Europeans rarely cared enough to kill the person before scalping them, whereas the first nations people were a little more kind in that regard. That's when you realize that it was the first nations people who were labeled as savages. Most history sources don't tell you this though.
Not gonna lie, Connor's early design was pretty good
Nah
they looked better than the end product
Honestly I like Conner's design it's the skin on the pants that ruins it for me in this "gameplay" they didn't have that
@@thegrimknight9766 nope
It should have made it as a outfit for the remastered
1:17 Connor's moving animations are exactly the same as Altair and Ezio's animations.
That's cuz the same guy behind the animus desmond miles
And probably because they are lazy
That means it can't be a true game, because it's not the same moveset between ezio+altair and Connor. It means that is a demo and can't be done like a real game
That’s exactly what I was thinking
It's pre-rendered and they probably haven't come up with the new animation that time, but imagine, imagine Altair/Ezio's animations in AnvilNext.
3:03 I’ve never seen any kind of kill animation as sick as that in an assassins creed game
Interestingly it's the same animation as in the very first debut trailer of ac3
Scalping was a feature that was cut because the tribe Connor was in didn't scalp.
This is really how the remastered should’ve been like in terms of tree physics and wild life, combat options and so on🤷🏻♂️
If the game was like that then it would been called a remake even with things such as that
English Man actually a whole new game would be nice only focusing on Achilles and his upbringing with at the end of the game you train shay (young shay). I know it wouldn’t be that interesting but just a thought.
English Man i know but the point I’m making is that the meaning of a remastered is meant to refine the mechanics to match the current games (maybe not combat) but the free running in ac3r is still as stiff as before, horse riding are as well which they definitely should’ve made it to match origins/odyssey and EVERY SINGLE BUG is still in the game since the original! This game really doesn’t feel like a remastered, more like a port with Slightly better graphics, they could’ve done soooooo much more to Match the title of a remastered
it's weird, but it almost looks like they created this footage with the unity engine.
InsaneXynN no it’s an assassin game so of course it’d be interesting
Although I love AC3 as it is and it's one of my favorite AC's, I still believe they've lost a lot of atmosphere in the final version. In prototype war, frontier and night feels much more accurate.
This tone and detail isnt possible to achive in an open world game. If they want this kind of atmosphere and cinematic gameplay then the need to make a linear game with a specific route for us to use to make it this cinematic.
I agree.
@@legaltowter9811 even if assassins creed needed to go back to hub worlds to make it possible I’m down for that %100
@@legaltowter9811 isn't rdr 2's mission linear .
Still my favourite AC to this day. The emotional gravity, the relatable villains and overall historical impact, I think, was the best Ubisoft has ever pulled off.
Quite unbelievable with games up to syndicate or even below AC3 pulling off certain things way better.
It was not emotionally driven. Connor is the most unrelatable character since he’s written so poorly. The voice acting is good but it doesn’t help that most of these characters were poorly written
I really like Connor's character development. Like literally, the game showed us when he was a young lad up until he became a deadly assassin who undone Shay's doing. I wish they showed the part where he became a master assassin tho.
@@irshadtyo you were poorly written
😂😂😂😂
No hard feelings
Ok for real tho this just simply isnt true hes more driven by hope than emotion
Hope that he can save his people and his land hes unrealatable because non of us have ever had to give up everything we could ever have to save the people who are more important and for that it is why we love him so much (plus with that said he also seems to have promised himself he would find the people who caused his mother's death) it's not about relating to connor it's about seeing the layers of him under the brute force he drops on the table you need to understand connor and who connor is because of the events that take place. He became an assassin for the the purpose of helping others and that makes him unique compared to others
@@irshadtyo
ratio
Does anyone else love how Connor actually jumped on the body in the river 1:47
So, this concept is like a dream. The movement, the slow motion, the parkour, the "identification" moments and so more. Especially the combat, it reminds me of an cinematic trailer. I wish the remaster ended up near this. I own the remaster, i am happy for it, since the "free roam" quality is pretty good than before. Only the cut scenes are pretty bad. I wish the combat was like this concept.
Is it only me or everyone feels that the beta footage is way cooler than the actual gameplay
This is actually an edited cutscene not gameplay
That Ubisoft for ya
@@philprice6866 but still looks cool af
@@tobiramatv1319 It looks exactly like the game we want! The people move so quietly and naturally! Their movements are not static! Sadly this takes way too much work to be done!
@@johnclayton4946 That's easy to do in a cutscene, the problem is that when playing there's a lot of inputs to take into count.
That's why games are not so fluid, because for them to be that way, they would need to play the same animations everytime.
I honestly like how they kept the tree running segments actually the same for the most part. But I noticed that this version seems to feel like look cool first gameplay second. All the takedowns looked very automated and more cinematic than actually controllable dynamic fights like how in the actual game you use rope darts and bows in the middle just to take down quickly if you want.
This footage and concept could actually be a dream come true with how the gaming system have been advancing these days, I wish it will actually get a remake that it deserve in the future.
The one thing I'm glad they changed is Connor's outfit. The one in the final game is one of my favorite robes in the entire franchise. So cool looking. Fits his character perfectly.
@your nightmares LOL :D You like the demo trailer outfit better? Oh well each to their own.
@@iWillWakeYouUp gotta be trolling
You really think his final outfit looks good lol the only things I whould change is the color of the prototype outfit as red dosen't suit the side hes helping.
God, AC3 outfit is the blandest one in the franchise. How in the world you think it's good looking
Connor in the final release like a wannabe skater
I’ve said it many times and I’ll say it again, ac3 has the coolest music in the series
Especially the main theme and modern assassin
Id say it's only rivaled by Revelations in terms of themes
Wazz Upp I love ac3s soundtrack but I prefer origins
AC 2 still holds my heart, Rooftops of Venice and Ezio's family will always be the first thing i'll hear when somebody says "Assassin's Creed"
@@hilnnerfarias913 ezio's family looks like Assassin's Family with all that versions out there
Connor's story is one of the best in the franchise. It isn't afraid to show how dirty natives were treated as they desperately attempted to defend their home. Connor is torn in multiple directions throughout the game and it adds depth to his character that not alot of people in my area understood at the time. There was a lot of hate for this game because our boy Desmond dies (which till this day, I believe was a dumb ass move) and a misconception that Connor shows no emotion. But there is plenty of emotion shown throughout this character and his drive for revenge blinded him at times. And lets talk about the soundtrack, many say Ezio's family is the best. I disagree, AC3 has the better theme hands down.
I loved the early outfit for Connor here. It takes a lot of cues from the levantine robes but include a few tribal native american details. I don't know why they didn't keep it for the final game.
Yet people keep saying they were Edwards robes@@unicorntomboy9736
Once again thank you for publishing this keep up the good work 😊❤
Hi
I love how Haytham was an assassin at first also while we don't have that exact outfit, the jamestown outfit is one I love. The more you wear it the more it grows on you
Lol imagine Ubisoft making a game this good
They already have many times now.
@@insanexynn9956
Nobody's laughing pal.
@@insanexynn9956 Ha you got the whole squad laughing. Dude, I bet you actually didn't play AC3 or any other game and just go with the hype.
@Quirin Müller I've played all of them actually lol
Unity, but completely fixed.
I know it's all pre-rendered but I do hope someday the technology of games get so advanced that future AC games' combat is as fluid and responsive as the combat in this trailer.
An actual AC3 remake with animations like this would be great. It's prerendered but nowadays we could actually do it with things like motion matching and blending like in TLOU2.
Like the animation at 3:12 where he actually walks up the tree root etc.
Back in the day when Patrice Desilets was still working on this game.
He left in 2010. This game came out in 2012 so he mostly likely didn't work on this game
He left in the middle of Brotherhood's production, not this one.
AC3 was in development immediately after AC2, that is since 2009, first in the "ideas" stage, of course, and from this stage is this render and you can clearly see Desilets's handwriting on it. The datadiscs, developed meanwhile, didn't require that much attention from the key creators and they already focused on the next main installment. Or do you think AC3 was completely developed from a scratch in 1 year, after Revelations came out?
Patrice Desilets said he completed Sequence 3 of Assassin's Creed 3, and never move on to Sequence 4.
@@harunh_arts Thanks for the info! It's fitting, he finished his work with a great twist.
I loved AC3, I still do, but this still looks badass. It kinda makes me hyped for a game that I've already played and enjoyed.
3:58
Why does it make me cringe
me too, the animations are too weird in this part.
Connor: EVERYONE, LETS HEAD INTO BATTLE
*18th century music band appears*
It's just silly
The walking looks so uncanny
The music sounds like from SpongeBob
I like how they took the running animation from assasins creed 1 to revelations and made it more smoother. Also the rope. Dart is awesome
Genuine fun fact: if you read the ac 3 wiki the rope dart was supposed to be a chain hidden blade, which is the one shown in the prototype, but they thought it was too fantastical and changed it to the rope dart
@@thomasmcfarlane554 interesting
also, another fun fact: Connor is an assassin
2:41 I don't think bullets work like that.
At least in the real game Connor uses a enemy body as a human shield. Not this...
Yeah they're kinda pushing it a bit far there.
To clarify how this works, this is usually the result of the creative heads coming together with their ideas of what they envision the final product looking like. Almost all games have these internally as a source for the rest of the team to try and replicate in a live environment, eventually leading to the game at launch.
10 years later in AC Valhalla: using same tree navigation
...
In the book this is the outfit he wears.
This how should be a assassin's game,graffics can be better,but the moves and the camera is so cinematic nice job
You realize this was all pre rendered CGI? The level of physics that had was so fake not even a modern PC could handle that much input.
@@Bubba1025 it's probably possible for Xbox SX, PS5 and PC to run this, the biggest problem right now would probably make the player input feel smooth and look smooth at the same time
Yeah absolutely man assassins creed 3 would have been a wonderful game if it was like this l would play it all the time
I like this Conner, doesn’t say anything just hands him a scalp
Honestly, the main thing from this that I wished was in the final game was having the frontier being this dense. The parkour opportunities is far more open in this. I love the tree top running in AC3, and it's most likely due to engine limitations, but wished free running in the Frontier wasn't so linear.
Yeah same here, that and some of the fluid combat moves that were in it would have been a cool addition.
one day video games will have physics like that.. i loved the fight scene wenn he was "done" killing them he kinda like cleaned his tomahawk with a whip.. imagine this would happen ingame. bloods looking real like that. so nice!
Ghost of Tsushima now has the sword flick
They should really just remake the game at this point..
Nah
If ubisoft decides to remake this game, it will be just same game, same mechanics in Unity's engine. Just a new coat of paint to existing product
7:21 good to know that made it into a DLC at least that is my favorite out of them all.
I Know it's just a pre rendered cutscene, but looks soooo much better than the actual game.
It even has the old "Ezio" engine and animations making it look legit.
The first outfit the developers had in mind was gorgeous.
Incredible! I love this footage, I need to show it to all my friends.
Edit: I wish this is how Assassin's Creed: 3 actually looked like. Also subbed!
Got no fucking idea why ubi would downgrade so badly in their every single game? Why fool the customer, why are they so fucking greedy
Pre dev is always fake tho
Imagine if they managed to make the game like this, the game wouldn't have so much hate. Connor looks like a true assassin here. This is all possible to make, but Ubisoft doesn't do what the people want, which is kind of disappointing.
@guilherme bezerra The health bar looks good in this, yeah.
@@ironmatto3 cgi? AC Unity has better 3d models in real time
3:18 SCORPION WINS!
Lol Underrated... 😂
That kind of parkour right there is what Ubisoft needs to start using for the future assassins creed game
They shoulda added the outfit Connor wears in this in the remastered
In a post Red Dead Redemption 2 world, i feel like the concept "gameplay" could actually be possible with enough FAITH and money thrown at it.
As long no one DOUBTS the developers, it'll be perfect.
Red dead gameplay is really bad
@@spankg888 ok
0:21 Is it just me or does he run like Ezio:D
This stuff is used to get a glimpse or an idea of what the game should have, look like, do, etc. Its like a stepping stone for the development team.
God I love the way Connor's assassin robes looked here
It was so cool when dodged the firing squad and shot them back
amazing, i don't know if i've seen some of that footage before, it was such an ambitious title from the titles that came beofre in the same franchize
So in the concept Haytham was a good guy
haytham is a good guy. sadist but a good guy.
I think that was meant to be Washington
Dragon Man no Washington is the guy on the horse
Haytham is a good guy... He just goes about his dreams in a different way than Connor does
This *wasn't* Haytham.
Back when this was their Concept, "Kenway Story" didn't exist.
This was just a guy we'd meet earlier in the game (through Story) - one of our Allies.
Later, when they got the Kenway idea, this guy became Base for Haytham, and they changed this Assassin into "Connor Kenway".
Enemys: **exist**
Conner: hold my ale
3:04 they really like that move, it made it to the actual reveal trailer
I like how the lighting effects were used at night. Real contrast from the moonlight and lamplight
I always expected a big open field battle like the ones that is shown in all of the trailers ......shame we never got one.
With how much games and consoles can handle these days, I’d love it if they gave Connor another chance. With movement as fluid as Unity, combat as satisfying as 3, exploration as vast as Black Flag/Origins/Odyssey, and a story as in depth as 2... we could finally get an AC game ALL AC fans could enjoy.
the outfit looks good. Should've been some extra content for the remastered.
H. Rush pretty sure it’s the Achilles outfit.
0:36 is no one going to talk about how arno voice actor was technically involved in three assassin's creed games
Interesting fact: on the cover of the book about Haytham, he is drawn in the background with just such a hairstyle
Someday in the future, someone will see it.
It's on the internet, I can guarantee that.
4:03 ... Imagine getting to actually participate in pwning that entire Army oh god!!!
1:02 that's Haytham.
I wish that the remastered one would be like this but just with better graphics and normal Connor robe. But the whole system looks fantastic and I would LOVE this I like the whole slomotion stuff and the weapon wheel and the whole camera views. In general, this is a good concept and I wish they go back in assassin creed history and make a game similar to AC3 but with a different storyline and use this concept as an idea. I mean we are in times we actually can make this concept to life.
could you imagine if Connor could have either upgraded over Time or just captcherd a man o war and brought it back to the homestead docks to be personalized and you could have free roamed around the east coast of the United States and Canada with a man of war, like how you did in Black flag.
Why is this footage still in circulation after at least 6 years?
Nah i saw this 2014 ig
I was pretty disappointed but Ubisoft has done this type of marketing for years, which is really lame. If gaming companies were forced to give refunds then they wouldn't be trying to cheat customers.
2:40 bro just doing his grandpa things
Nice video. Scenes with the development of the game were especially pleased!
This is so cinematic and awesome. I love it!!
Very nice video! Thank you for Uploading.
4:44 That outfit looks better than the one they ended up with.
It would be such a vibe to have that night gameplay style make it to the development. They chose a different path, which was also great, but this would be much darker, much more depressing, but they still drew a lot of inspiration from the pre-render.
There's only one hope...
AC3 remake on ps5
I think they'd still find a way to disappoint us... If it ever even happened
I think Ubisoft really has a fetish downgrading graphics on videogames :p
It's not a fetish, they just need to adapt the game until it runs well on consoles.
The engines of all games are capable of showing much better graphics than the ones you see in games.
It's just platforms can't move them.
@@davidstinger1134 it's a metaphor
no downgrades here this was purely concept; is a pre-rendered cutscene, used in early stages of development, meant for developers and stuff to get an essence of how the game should be like, not really for the consumer, but cool to look at. sadly, not everything is added; cut from the finished product due to time-restraints, or other possible issues during development
@@zorex. yeah it really sucks considering that the game has too much potential. Hope they have done it on the remastered version tho. If other devs can do it, why can't they?
@@zulwrites the remastered version of assassins creed 3 actually looks even worse than the normal version of assassins creed 3
I love it when they realize they're dead one of them just yells RUN!
Always wear the Jamestown outfit in AC3 since it looks more like the beta outfit plus it has the traditional Red/White Assassin robe combo. I get the blue thing as Connor favors the Patriots but it doesn't give off the same vibe.
maybe Connor is getting a sequel and this is the mid development opening mission
I wish he gets one....
Thats impossible because in this footage he talked to haythem kenway
no, this is a pre-rendered cutscene, was used in early stages of development for developers and stuff to get an essence of how the game should be like, not really for the consumer, but cool to look at. sadly, not everything is added; cut from the finished product due to time-restraints, or other possible issues during development
Nope.
Wtf! Why does this look sooo good? Like honestly? It feels like a new game completely. This should have been the remaster. Those kills, those smooth physics.
This is actually just a pre rendered cutscene not an actual gameplay
Early concept of connor actually looked like an assassin, he looked lighter and more agile, the final version looks like a brute
Looked soooo much better than what we ended up with. There was more detail, more darker, even the tree limbs bent over Connor's weight as he climbed on them. I hope they remake the first three AC games this way.
I like everything but the head skinning. Also, the costume in the final version is definitely way better... BUT WHERE THE F WERE THESE BRUTAL TAKEDOWNS IN THE FINAL?! UGH!
If only this was the remastered 😒
Hands down the coolest ac, the history with the founding fathers in america was my jam. Playing a native assassin is the icing on the cake.
Am I the only one who likes Connors original robe better? I kinda hope someone can make a mod of his early concept outfit
Prototype Connor's robes look so good
I like that they're playing as achilles and he meets haythem
That isn’t Achilles
I Still feel Bad looking at this....
How great Assassins creed as a series could have been..
Now its all Gone to Ruin..
Goddamn ,homie threw away all of his weapons
*Likes* = Assassin's Creed 3
*Comments* = Fortnite
That looks like an awesome action game with super fluid movements for ONE/PS4
Gotta admit a lot of ideas from this footage was later implemented in various forms across all future AC games
Looks better then what we have today. But this is pre rendered, maybe if they at least took a decade it would be a masterpiece. I’m really gonna miss the enemy sound effects they make in ac 2 and 1.
The gameplay in the beginning is pre-rendered as a proof of concept, to show what they are aiming for the game to be. Then they use that as a sort of guide to try and imitate it as best as possible.
This is ASSSSAAASSSINS CREEEED!
go away with all AC's after this AC!
You know this is pre-rendered, dumbass?
@@CheddarMannn does it change the fact it's a dope accasins creed if it was made??? Just like this ?
This was weirdly recommended to me just today, but I would love to point out the fact that the mini map almost never changes through the entire video
When the pre-realesed game is 100 percent much better
I just hope one day we get an Ac game like this but it would never happen
