[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

love storming another ship ffs.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

As much as i love this game, some of the missions really piss me off.

Especially that one in the jungle where you have to not be seen the entire *bleep* time or you fail.

My memories of hatred for that came flooding back this evening.

[Tomwin Lannister]

Some of those missions are AIDS indeed.

Tail missions can be satisfying, but they can also hurt your dick in 17 different places.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

On the plus side after that mission, you get given berserk darts which is always amazingly top notch banter.

[Tomwin Lannister]

Top notch banter until you use them on a gunman on that mission and he starts popping the hostages

Check your PSN inbox

[M99]

This is why I never got it on the PS4 again (finished it on PS3). I can't be bothered grinding again, if the game starts at the point you are in Havana with a decent ship I would but it again.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Accidently just put a berserk dart instead of a sleeping dart on a Jaguar lmao

He charged at me quite aggressively

[Tomwin Lannister]

Don't take long tbf, well then again part of the fun for me was going out to sea with a shit ship and doing everything in my limited power to K.O and board everything, then upgrade.

Dem legendary ship battles were the highlights of this game (and Rogue) for me. Loved them big time, even though I went through throwing a couple of controllers out of the window cause of frustration talk about anger issues

I wonder how I'd feel if I played Dark Souls...

[Myesyats]

Those ship battles were my most hated part of the AC series, just couldnt get the hang of it

Damn nostalgia hit me, now i have gotta go and play one of the games

Mad love for the AC series

[Tomwin Lannister]

Can't remember exactly which one it was but one of the legendary ship battles legit made me *bleep* flip

I never managed to beat the last legendary ship in Rogue. That shit was ridiculous.

[RealGunner]

So blackflag is worth playing even if i am not into AC? also is it like a standalone game or linked with the previous ones?

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

There's some stuff they cover but in the main it's very standalone tbh.

If anything it's more of a pirate game than an Assassins Creed game lol.

[Tomwin Lannister]

Yeah I gave up on AC ages ago, black flag is pirates with assassin stuff on the side. Setting is GOAT

Pirate part has nothing to do with AC and is the bulk of the game.

GOAT game

[Tomwin Lannister]

P.S in about 10 days time game price goes back up to £16 and season pass goes back to £14 ish


Atm Game = £8
Season pass = £6 ish

[M99]

AC 4 was the last great AC game. The ending sequence in the story was the last time I cared about the storyline in the games. Edward was a GOAT character too. Superb character development.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

It's why I'm hyped about the new one, well the fact they took longer to develop helps but also because the Blag Flag team are making it.

[RealGunner]

I'll buy it

[Myesyats]

They're overdoing things spitting games like crazy, should take a couple years to make one to make sure you finesse the shit out of it

I hate that many developers try to release as many games as possible in a short amount of time, just take more time and don't release crap pls, like Rockstar for example

[M99]

Ah season pass of course. Ubisoft gonna Ubisoft.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Meh, not overly fussed because most AC games season passes are trash.

Very rarely felt like i was missing out in the past.

Good thing you're not OCD like me. I always need to buy the whole package.
