assassins creed 3 artwork

An Assassin’s Creed 3 patch is set to go live by the end of next week, thus, Ubisoft is calling it the Thanksgiving patch. It’s a rather huge patch, which fixes many different things such as the chases, and Connor’s hood should start acting normal again, because you know, hoods have a mind of their own and can act a bit psycho at times. A small breakdown of the patch can be found though the Ubisoft forums, but a more detailed version is posted on a different hub page due to the fact it contains spoilers. In other words, click the second link at your own risk.
