How is Brotherhood? (Please No Spoilers)

[Necromancer]

First of all, I don't have the game yet, so please don't post any spoilers in here.

Basically, I would just like to know how the game is so far from those who are already playing it. How is the gameplay? How is the combat? Is the story as incredible as that of its preceders? How connected to AC2 is Ezio's story? What other improvements have there been that you think are worth mentioning?

IGN did a spoiler free review here
I'm gonna pick it up today
Apparently it picks up right after then end of ACII.

Hope that helps

Indeed, it starts out right after AC2.

This is the best AC so far in my opinion. The multiplayer is awesome. Can't tell you much about single player... I'm still in Sequence 2, doing side quests, and buying stuff. I love it (obviously).

Im on Sequence 3 or 4 so far but the game is rather impressive. If you enjoyed ACII then it is much of the same but with some systems improved. Combat is as satisfying as it was and has some nice new combos, chain moves and chain executions now. The story picks up exactly where ACII ends in the tomb. There seems there is MUCH more to do in the game now and more side quests and the renovation is no longer limited to one area but the whole of rome.

I've been playing it since the 18th, and as Drakan already said, much has been improved compared to ACII. I'm at sequence 3 at the moment, and am enjoying the features that I can use such as renovation of buildings -- and thus also increasing income and good appearance of Rome --, the new abilities / weapons / armour, and much more.

I'm also in LOVE with the Drachen Panzer Armour / Outfit and some other extras. It comes with the Pre-order of the Codex Edition.

I'll post my review once I completed the game. You can assume it's rather (and hopefully) positive, so I suggest you get it a.s.a.p.

You mean Helmschmied Drachen Armour?

Yeah, I like it. But it isn't an armour unfortunately. It's an outfit. It doesn't do anything besides looking awesome :s

 

[Arld]

Yes, I meant that. However, in Dutch, they added "Pantzer" (at least, on the DLC card which provided it, rather than in-game). Unfortunate that it's not armour indeed, but I LOVE the looks in overall. Especially the shoulderpad.
