Ubisoft edits out the killing of bluecoats in new ACIII tralier
[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ph9jn5kRo9k&feature=plcp[/url]
Here is the UK version skip to 2:10 for Connor killing them

And here is the NA version that has it edited out.
Its pretty interesting at how Ubisoft is fine showing redcoats being killed to UK viewers but cant show it to Americans. I guess Kotaku is right Ubisoft thinks Americans cant handle the sight of there own ancestors being killed but in the UK we apparently can
-
This is just getting ridiculous. AC is made by a bunch of Canadians, they're clearly out of touch if they can't imagine Americans being okay with American deaths in a video game. I had no issue killing Byzantine soldiers or Ottomans in revelations, regardless of western history favoring the former. [Edited on 10.04.2012 12:23 PM PDT]

All right. Now you guys can be mad.

It would be like calling black people the N-word in a commercial- it would be offensive, because "Hey! We're right here!"[/quote]And the killing of redcoats isn't a middle finger to us in the UK?[/quote] I'm sure it is to you, as well.

Seeing as how Connor is half native i'm fairly certain he'd see america as wrong. Actually i'm fairly interested now to see if his parents legitimately wanted a son of whether he is a result of the -blam!- and pillaging the americans did at the time.[/quote] It's funny because that's not accurate.[/quote] So your saying the colonists didn't oppress the natives?

Thats just stupid, I hate censoship.

I tweeted Kotaku about it an they wrote and article about it right now [url]http://kotaku.com/5949062/heres-the-stuff-from-the-new-assassins-creed-iii-trailer-that-ubisoft-doesnt-want-americans-to-see[/url] [Edited on 10.04.2012 12:18 PM PDT]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Frequency99poopy They did state that you will still be after the templar. The templar of members on both sides of the war, so you will be killing plenty of blue coats just the same.[/quote]I know that and the UK version shows that but the NA one doesn't
-
So? Doesn't cahnge the game.
-
It's not like they've showed the US that trailer before and they went and rioted or destroyed embassies or what not. You're all over-reacting. It's Ubisoft's decision, it's not as if Americans can't "handle" it.javascript:WebForm_DoPostBackWithOptions(new WebForm_PostBackOptions("ctl00$mainContent$postForm$skin$submitButton", "", true, "forum", "", false, true))

I'm perfectly fine with killing some revolutionaries, some were real asses. I'm thinking of you Charles Lee and you too Benidict Arnold

It's a video game trailer, people are taking it too personally.

Of course not [Edited on 10.04.2012 12:10 PM PDT]

My ancestors fought in the revolutionary war ( Squirrel Scouts division) and I hardly find it offensive. It's not meant to insult anyone
