    Assassin's Creed Crossover

    For Honor seems like it would be a perfect fit for a crossover with one of Ubisoft's other major franchises: Assassin's Creed. I could see this taking any of several different forms. They could use Assassin or Templar characters as unlockable heroes in the normal game. They could make an Assassin's Creed themed dlc. Or they could make a whole For Honor style game featuring epic battles of assassins vs templars.
    Also, as someone who has played nearly every Assassin's Creed game (I'm still holding out for a PS4 version of Rogue...), I've always felt that the melee combat had room for improvement. Many 3rd person action games have been trying to emulate the Arkham combat system. They could pick much worse games to copy for sure, but with the Art of Battle I think Ubisoft has a very strong alternative which could give the Arkham model some real competition. I think that they should give consideration to trying to adapt the Art of Battle system for use in Assassin's Creed games.
    And as long as I'm dreaming, if they were ever able to somehow make a human/elf vs orcs Lord of the Rings version I'd probly lose my mind...

    I could see some kind of crossover between franchises in some from of DLC. I'll admit it would be cool, you could have 15th century Assassin's vs Templars or something like that. As DLC it would be pretty cool to do something like that but the problem is how could they incorporate it, into the game. They'd have to add more factions to the existing three which I'm not sure would work well as DLC and I could only really see this as DLC type add on. If you add hero classes as DLC, they could provide a tactical advantage because they could be a little more powerful than the other factions.

    Maybe i should keep out of this because i am not an AC player.
    My humble Opinion is that AC doesn't fit the creative style of ForHonor. Samurai, knight and Vikings are such iconic popcultural/Historical figures, while "templars vs assassins" is something that only the small comunity of AC fans really get.
