Re: Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag
Lmao, horrible. It was the one in the NE and it was two Man'o'Wars. I kept getting caught in the middle of the two. I fled to live another day. Went and took out about 5 bases to get some upgrades, going to try again free work. :/5Comment

Re: Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag
I have to say... this is my least favorite AC game. Kenway is a pretty boring main character and it just doesn't have that epic feel that the others had. Brotherhood is definitely my favorite and AC1 second. Just had too much repetition. AC3 didn't really do it for me either...

Re: Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag
I love that the more stealth-oriented style of gameplay is back. To me its more epic to pick off an entire group of soldiers unseen than to just barnstorm through like AC3 had you did a lot of times. Plus, the ship stuff is still epic to me. Just sailing around and listening to your crew sing shanties is pretty damn cool.NCAA: Michigan Wolverines

Re: Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag
The only reason I haven't played this week is because of BF4's 100% XP bonus. I'm missing some pillaging though.

Re: Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag
This might not be a game you can compare it to (it seems like it could be compared) but someone compare this to Far Cry 3. Far Cry 3 is one of my favorite games over the last few years. It seems you can do a lot in this game as far as free roam and side stuff.
For the record I never played a game in this series.Comment

AC3 was awful I though. I liked Connor the farther through the game it got, but the story didn't do it for me. Run forever, kill a guy, rinse, repeat.
I really wish since Ezio had three games, Altair would have as well.Comment

Re: Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag
I think I will need to widdel them both down before finishing one off. I also need to take cover more often, especially when I am between the two.
On a side note, every time I sunk one of the two I was able keep the loot when I picked it up. So after multiple failed attempts I had 40,000R to show for it.Comment

Re: Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag
I felt their wrath last night too. I kept downing one of the ships but once it sinks the second one turns on beast mode. The thing literally turned on a dime to ram me.

Re: Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag
Finished it today. Definitely tied for my least favorite AC game.SpoilerKenway barely developed as a character, the ending was very disapponting... kill all of the bad guys in consecutive missions,most of the things that happen story-wise are predictable.
I dunno, most disagree with my opinion, which is a good thing, glad y'all are enjoying it... but it just didn't do it for me. Beat it and put it on Amazon for sell right after.Comment

Had my biggest fight of the game earlier. Was just going to do one assassin contract real quick, turns out he's in a hard fort. D'oh. So I take a quick look and there's no ships around, so I go for it. I hit the fort with some mortar fire, dodge, mortar again, then move to broadside range. Next thing I know I see three brigs approaching from one side, and two men o war coming from the other. Damn.
So I hit the three brigs first with a mortar, they were all close and all three are nearly done. I start broadsiding the men o war and hit the brigs with another mortar, they are incapacitated. I keep hitting the men o war with broadsides/heavy, then swivels, all while shelling the fort with mortars. I get down to one bar of health, so I go for the brigs, I just ram through the middle one and start boarding and use them to heal (nice of the other ships and fort to take a timeout for me to repair my ship).
After that I didn't have much trouble, both men o wars were almost toast, the fort was no bother, though I did end up at about 50% health after. Unfortunately I was running short on time, I had to run down the fort real quick and leave, didn't have time to board those big treasure troves.Comment

Re: Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag
Social events seem to stop once you get deep into the story or after you taken all forts.
It's been around 2 weeks since I've seen any social stuff and people on AC forums are having same issues once they take all forts.
Makes it hard to do AC initiates missions when social sharing stops working.
People with this issue who start a new games see social sharing turn on again.Comment

Re: Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag
Great for when you have a big ship with a few small ones. If they're clustered an upgraded mortar can take out the dingies.5Comment
