Went very skeptical to the game everyday, because me his predecessor has not just blown away. But then I realized very quickly that I absolutely love the new setting!
Of course it is a pirate series very different than the other AC parts and since everyone has to decide for himself whether he likes it or not. To me at least like the "Marine Simulator" incredibly well. The most important thing though is always that it continues to be the haystack hits like ne 1 :)
Positives:
- A huge world that are free to explore the ship is
- Even if one is not a water rat, there are on the islands many side quests and treasures
- Gorgeous graphics with amazing lighting and water effects and very natural landscaped plants (also runs on my not so new AMD 5000+ with highest settings)
- Voice actor can be heard :)
- Find and ship battles, with unpredictable outputs (For example, if an over mighty ship of you may be taken loosely, because previously simply through rides a giant whirlwind: D)
- Again bigger climbs as in AC3
- I'm not very far in the main mission, since I almost only do side quests to upgrade my ship, etc., but so far I find the story quite well
Negatives:
- There is still no proper demarcation in the race and climbing the figure, which means that the good Lord will depend unintentionally frequently on any trees, masts or walls of buildings
- Of course there are also many places where it suddenly just once can no longer climb and jumping in front of the climbing spot back and forth, making travel in a main mission a lot of fun ..
- I liked the ship very struggles, they are also not too difficult, but I personally found it sometimes cumbersome to steer the boat with the keyboard and at the same time to fight (or I'm just too stupid for it: D)
One thing is for me only yesterday, unfortunately happens that was just incredibly annoying:
Unsuspecting I start the game and then the shock 6 hours from the game were deleted! Immediately in Internet research and then found that it was up to UPlay, so watch out! For many players, so with me, it's already happened that the cloud sync was flawed and why the score was just not backed up or destroyed. I would recommend to all, simply disable security reasons the cloud sync and to save the game on the computer, because the Uplay server is very unstable!
Conclusion: The game is simple Assassins Creed, with its strengths and weaknesses, if and even if you were with pirates or without perhaps not a fan of the predecessor, you can like about the game, see if you simply a good open-world game with want to gamble quite a lot of water :)
