according to gamespot the main character in Black Flag is Edward Kenway, the father of Haytham Kenway from last year's Assassin's Creed III. Edward is described as a privateer, assassin, and "occasional" pirate.Black Flag will be set in the Caribbean. Players will reportedly get to travel to multiple islands, including Jamaica, Cuba, and the Bahamas.

I doubt they could make it any worse than ACIII.

Hopefully the game gets some proper QA and playtesting. Least it sounds like the best parts of ACIII are going to be included in this game. Naval and the Kenways. If Edward is anything like Haytham then the character is going to be a little more interesting than Connor.

I just hope this isn't a clone of AC3. AC3 did not live up to my expectations, but from what I heard.. Guns are back, Naval Warfare are back.. and forests with animals are back. Oh wait, doesn't that sound the exact same as AC3? I am a huge AC fan (Bought AC1 on launch + own every AC game except for the ones on mobile)... I don't really like the direction they are going to be honest.

The reason attracted me to the AC series was the history and the unknown factor of the west. Now, they are just staying in this Eastern part of the world really irritates me. Not much would change from AC3 to AC4. I guess I should wait till Monday and see some gameplay, and hope for the best.

How did you guys warm to the main assassin's character in AC3? I warmed very quickly to ezio from altier but I'm not digging the AC3 character from what I've seen. I could get on board with pirates though :D (zing!)

I half expected the pirate at the end to say "assasin's creed 4 black flag...... yargh!)

is it even possible to finish AC3? I played like seven hours and the guy that's on the cover WASN'T EVEN BORN YET! how long is this monster? I gave up, that was in December I think. will eventually get back into it, and will likely get AC4. I applaud long games, it's awesome to get that much for our money, but realistically most of us simply don't have the time!

It is about as long as Revelations (25-30 hours). That is including all the side missions. Not the filler rubbish like the 100% memory sync for missions. Which isn't really that long considering you can do that in Skyrim and not even touch the main quest.

AC2 and Brotherhood i found to be longer.

    • iPhone 18 Pro drop-test video and photos leak on the dark web following a data breach by Hamid Ganji iPhone 17 Pro - Image via Apple Apple is seemingly facing one of the biggest data breaches in its history, and just a few months before the official debut of the iPhone 18 Pro series, photos, a drop-test video, a supplier list, and key phone components have reportedly been leaked by hackers. Last week, we reported that Tata Electronics, an Apple supplier and iPhone producer in India, was hit by a data breach. As a result, it was reported that more than 200,000 trade secrets and confidential documents belonging to Apple and Tesla were stolen by the ransomware group World Leaks. According to Reuters, the group has now leaked supplier lists, component details, and photos of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro models on the dark web. One of the materials leaked by the hackers is a drop-test video of the iPhone 18 Pro, which is due to launch this September. The phone is shown in a gray color and has the same familiar design we saw on last year's iPhone 17 Pro series. The device also appears to be quite durable, though it seems to be thicker than last year's model. One possible explanation is that Apple may be using a larger battery in the iPhone 18 Pro series. Moreover, Reuters says it has seen at least six documents mapping many components in the iPhone 18 Pro models to their respective suppliers, including details on chips on the main circuit board and on battery and camera components. The documents reportedly detail hundreds of parts that will be used in the iPhone 18 Pro models. A person familiar with the matter told the outlet that Apple classifies this data as sensitive and “is concerned about the documents being shared on the dark web as they relate to unreleased models.” Apple is reportedly investigating the issue but has yet to issue an official statement.
    • You do you, I've just said that it first appeared in "home" version before it will be available in "work" one. I use Edge only because it still supports MV2 uBO extension even on Android - I'll switch when they stop.
    • I imagine that was a review or something? My reviews mostly contain a lot of images and galleries, but these are all webp too, but yeah it all adds up on the page load. Would help if you were more helpful with your critique instead of bitching and moaning like a Karen 😂 Because then we might be able to fix it for you.
    • If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though
