Impressive multiplayer mode, but does it get more complex? I know the number of assassins tracking you is a variable, but how about environments, obstacles, and number of targets? Combat and character interaction too, maybe even with the main cast. That would make it even more appealing and longer-lasting. 
 
Suggestions aside, my nitpick is also the morph ability... why is that woman suddenly a man?! It'd be interesting if you could obtain or unlock a cloak, even a common one, and were made to put it on with good timing to blend in. Either that or continue running away and using the environment to your advantage. 
 
Can't wait to try it out though. THE DOCTOR LOOKS SICK!

I hope there's a multiplayer mode that employs the actual combat. (without the insta-kill counter, obviously)

Mostly it kind of breaks the immersion, right?
Unless AC3 is set in space I really don't want to see more overworldly powers in these games. The eagle jump was enough.

Looks cool but stuff like that will never happen in a real game. Everyone will just be running around so it won't be hard to spot people.

Ooh, a multiplayer stealth-em-up ...  
 
Splinter Cell managed to get it right and I always wondered how much better Thief 3 would have been with MP.

looks kind of good, but was that plague doctor AI or a Human player? if you could assassinate (basically everything in you can do in the main game) real players it would be even cooler

Alright, at least I'm a little more informed now. I was afraid that everything in Brotherhood would just be "run around and kill them Templar/Assassin fools!" This, however, looks a lot more involved, intelligent, and paced. Very cool.

 I find it hard to believe that people would be patient enough to just walk in MP match, i bet everyone just run's around climbin buildings until they find each other. Damn shame :(

I think the Harlequin is a nice mix to things I wonder how it will play out in something like AC. But on another note I am really excited for this especially since they decided to continue with the same ancestor

the morph is so  cheap. Totally defeats the purpose of choosing a player skin.

This E3 walkthrough made it much more clear how the multiplayer works in this game. Looks pretty good as well.

This looks better than I thought it would. Could be a lot of fun to try and assasinate other players if it's done right.

I enjoyed Assassin's Creed, but it'd be difficult to convince me this game is worth buying.  At the very least, I hope there's a strong story mode attached.

This looks cool, but i don't see a huge lifespan for it.  But you know what, that's just fine. 
  
I'm most interested in the SP, and the MP just functions as icing on the cake.  I don't need a full-featured 'spend 5 months on it' MP for it to be worthwhile.  If I can get a few fun games every so often that isn't just 'shoot everyone you see' than I am content.

i can see this as the type of multiplayer that will have players that are way to good at it to fast, if you dont get this game on release day you probs wont be able to catch up. hopefully it will not be so

So is the story of multiplayer just dudes dicking around in the Animus for fun? That'd be pretty hilarious.
