Plenty of major fixes.

Posted By | On 29th, Oct. 2012

Assassin’s Creed III, releasing in less than a day now, will be receiving a day 1 patch, and the patch will be fixing plenty of issues and bugs.

There’s plenty of them, so we’re not listing them all, but here’re a few which I found interesting.

Spoilers follow.

– Player could remain stuck after diving from a waterfall
– Fixed an animation glitch when interrupting the reception from high profile jump
– Mission “A DEADLY PERFORMANCE” – Mission would not continue if the player decides to climb the wall instead of using the ladder
– Mission “JOHNSON’S ERRAND” – fixed a bug where the game would remain stuck if the player runs during the black screen that occurs after exiting the tavern
– Mission “THE SURGEON” – Charles Lee could fall in the water and die while following the player, causing the mission to fail, if the player decides to take a certain path that involves jumping over the water
– Mission “THE SURGEON” – fixed a bug where we would show the desync effect if the player throws one of the target in the water, even though the mission is not really failed
– Mission “WELCOME TO BOSTON” – The courier side-quest next to the general store would not start properly
– Possible crash that could happen if the player blends in a crowd group where some NPCs haven’t spawned yet, and while blended performs a kill.
– Possible crash that could happen if the player triggered a loading while being in a covert escort formation with his brotherhood trainees
– Possble crash that could happen when calling a brotherhood trainee with the snipe ability
– Mission “HAPPY EXPECTATIONS” – Game could remain stuck on a white screen when starting the mission
– “OAK ISLAND” – Player could pass through the ground when diving into the cave
