Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag announced

[NotedDerk]

people are being bitchy about a new game to a successful franchise? that's unheard of!

I'm curious as to what people's problems are with this game already though, haha.

People are saying it'll be too focused on the naval warfare, but mostly that it won't feel like an Assassin's Creed game, etc. etc. everything they've been saying ever since ACII and been proven wrong repeatedly.
Even people complaining about how soon it was announced. ACII, Brotherhood, and Revelations came out within a year of each other IIRC, and they were all great games on their own merits. I trust Ubi on this.

EDIT: I'm calling it now. East India Trading Co. is Templar, and that's why the Assassins had to resort to piracy.

There are a lot of people that actually didn't care for it, and I like it but I don't feel like centering a game off of it is good for *Assassin's Creed,* but I don't think they'd be foolish enough to center the whole game off of it. I feel most of it will be port towns and on-deck combat/boarding other ships

guess i'd better get to playing ACIII here soon.

What I was trying to say was that I thought many people were up in arms about a modern pirate theme game, not necessarily a AC game.

Im sure youre spot on with the port towns and deck combat, and I agree a game with only the naval battles would be quite boring.

After how lackluster 3 was, i'll approach this one with caution
