User blog comment:AgentG231/What specifically is the bug in the Animus 1.28 that made Altair can't swim?/@comment-3251634-20130426230122/@comment-5499105-20130429131645

I understood, and yeah, Ubisoft always try do blame Animus about things they were lazzy enough to not do it.

And no, Half-Life 3 is not confirmed yet. Gabe Newel said it will only be released at 3013.
