360 users can also discuss the mode here but this is mainly for PS3 users who want to organise matches and such. I will be on most of this weekend as im free from exams, PSN is still Phatmole.

I also have a headset, my basic strategy is to observe the targets from cover and figure out how to get to them without getting in their line of sight, if that looks too hard I use disguise to get to them and then poison them. Im thinking someone else could use smoke bomb in case things go bad.

I'll be able to play a bunch this weekend as well. I'd like to see how well we can do at Manhunt as well, being able to co-ordinate and such.

If 2 other people are interested in Manhunt or other team games I will consider making a proper clan on the ubi network and creating seperate topics for each mode.

Probably one of my favorite modes so far. Anyone who wants to play on Xbox, let me know! It's hard finding 4 people total that wont screw everything up for the rest of the team.

I hate it when I come into Wolfpack with Poison Smoke Bomb and Incognito everything, get my Focuses up, get my Aerials and my Varieties, only to see all three of my other team-mates SPRINT, forfeit their approach bonuses, and take my kill which would've greatly helped the entire team by the way. Urgh. Too many CoD players.

When I finally get around to firing up AC3 (only need to play through the DLC in Revelations), I'd be down on 360. I'm a gigantic fan of objective based team games and have had monumental success playing with friends online and actually employing a strategy (amazing how it works when things are properly planned). I think my cousins, one buddy, and my brother rattled off 43 straight headquarters wins in Black Ops a year or so ago.

Gamertag is BigRouge04, feel free to add me. I'm sure DoubleMcStab would play as well.

Slowly, but surely, the job gets done.

As soon as I finish the story mode... I will play some multiplayer.

I'm mostly available Sunday mornings on the east coast (8am - ??? afternoonish). And sometimes Saturday afternoons/evenings (depending on when my Ducks are playing).

I work too much to really commit times during the week to play, unfortunately... but there may be some random weekdays.

Just want to finish the story mode stuff first. (beginning of sequence 9 now)

I would also recommend finishing the Single Player first. The Multiplayer Story is pretty sweet if you like Challenges and unlocking things. Erudito is just, probably one of my favorite characters. Maybe it's just cus I've sort of been raised on cyberpunk novels and TV shows, the Matrix, etc. I love mysterious hackers who save the day.

I'm up for a couple rounds Joey. I've only played 2-3 rounds of Wolfpack so far but it looks really fun, good cooperative mode if you just want work on your offensive tactics.

Played my first round of wolfpack yesterday. I would love to play with 3 other people with headsets that won't screw everything up. I was with a group of "run as fast as you can to the enemies and attack them!" It seems to me that the scores here wouldn't be as high as nearly every kill was "reckless." I had to resort to the same just to keep up and I was still low scorer (by far).

Again, anyone willing to play, whenever you see me on, shoot me an XBL message and I'll reply one way or the other.

I'm free all day tomorrow (Monday) and could probably set aside some time for that.

Thanks for getting on and struggling through with me yesterday, Joey. I'm still getting a handle on the gameplay aspects of multiplayer. I did set my high score in Manhunt thanks to you, so thanks. (Also got my average score/kill up to 400 from 381). I just gotta work on not getting killed so much... maybe learning what the abilities are good for will help with that. Laughing out loud

You just have to always be on the defense, even when being the hunter. Get used to smoke bomb diameters, spotting targets around corners (lighting up the compass), planning a strategy AS you're walking towards a target, things like that.

...I have a new video idea after saying that. Who wants to get on multiplayer sometime and help? Laughing out loud

EDIT: You don't have to be an expert. Just be able to follow instructions and be used to the movement of the multiplayer.

I know in the OP it says this is for PS3 discussion, but I didn't want to start a new thread just for this:

Turns out you can play wolfpack by yourself, which is good for me starting in AC3, as it gives me a chance to practice with all the abilities to learn how to use them etc, and still get XP and accolades. (Assassinations in wolfpack don't count, unsurprisingly, so it's not a way to boost kdr). Since I'm a new person to multiplayer (never really played ACB or ACR multi), I find it useful. I can change ability sets, try different (offensive) combinations, etc without getting murdered every 12 seconds. (This won't help me learn defensive tactics, but I least I can see how things work in a situation that gives me objectives AND XP). Big smile

All that said, I'll likely be on xbox tonight if others want to play some wolfpack (or others)!
