MRPG could mean multiplayer role-playing game aswell

And I think it is a sandbox game, I am not sure if it's linear or not though, when outside the citys that is
Just hoping it's gonna be a huge map, with the 3 main cities then like tons of little villages and settlements that you can fully explore whenever you want

Just a little FAQ from one of the game devs

Can we enter buildings?
-Some, but the majority of Assassin's Creed is outdoors.
Does Altair have a wife?
-He's single in the game.
Can Altair swim?
-Patrice's words were "Water is Altair's kryptonite." I was also instructed to avoid bodies of water whilst I played.
Change outfits?
-No. The most change is when you get new boots, weapons, etc.
Free roam after beating the game?
-Yes
Subtitles?
-No. An unfortunate cut due to making a new engine in addition to the fact having five people talk at once makes a bit of a mess among other things.
DS version of Assassin's Creed. 3-D or sprites?
- 3-D. I tried to get more info, but Patrice didn't know if he was allowed to say much more.
Futuristic Elements?
-Patrice said no to answering any of that before we even asked.
What's the meaning of the picture from the pre-order kit lithographs in which it appears several assassins are jumping off the fortress of Masyaf?
-No answer from Patrice.
Will Altair ever be dehooded/shown without his hood on?
-No
Why was the crossbow eliminated?
- Patrice was looking for realism in game. At that time, a crossbow took over a minute to reload, and unless the player wanted a huge stop in the action...so they switched to throwing knives (a great switch in the opinions of those who played it).
Can you pick up/use other weapons? Can poison be used?
-No and No. Patrice said that all you need are your four weapons (conveniently controlled switching with the d-pad) and there is no need for the bow. You can, however, regain your throwing knives by pickpocketing thugs...it is quite fun =P
Downloadable Content?
-That question was asked, and it seemed like there was none planned for the future. But hey...you never know!
Issues fitting the game onto the 360 disc?
-This was a misunderstanding. By the nature of the size of the media, a blue-ray holds signifigantly more data than a dvd. Do not fret...the game will fit fine!

Shame about the water , mind you it isn't essential for me to do stuff like that.

The real shame is DLC
Glad they removed the crossbow too, would be too easy to climb up high, aim shoot in the head and run off

I'm not pre-ordering mine until I have COD4, hopefully then I'll have a job
