Make sure you dont have over 100 friends or the game wont connect to ubisoft
I'm planning on getting it on Xbox One when there's a price drop. AC3 just left such a bad taste in my mouth.
AC3 was like Forrest Gump: The Video Game. Full of set pieces and wasted potential. I was in stitches every time they implied that Connor won the Revolutionary War by himself.
Part of the problem is Connor was a terrible protagonist; he was a big whiny kid. Going from a likeable guy like Ezio to him was horrible. He had an even worse personality than Altair, who I thought was kind of a jerk.
His personality fits with his background IMO but yeah, he was pretty dull, although pretty much the whole game was. Edward is much more like Ezio.
Finished today. I would rank it in the top tier along with AC2 and Brotherhood. And the first ending that didn't elicit an audible "what the ****?".
Some of the missions are tedious as hell. I failed the one where you have to creep through a marsh at night with the jackdaw about 20 times. Haven't played it since
That one wasn't that hard, and had a bit of an epic finish free-running through explosions and such in the rain. But it was glitchy for me.
For one, you have to stay out of the yellow circle of sight for the boat you're tailing, and then it stops and you're given no further instruction. Turns out you're supposed to just run right up on it, but I was hesitant, because you have to enter the circle of visibility.
I just did that one last night. Which part were you hung up on? Tailing in the boat or once you reach land?
And I finally figured out the damn passport. You have to click "buy passport," since it's free. And then it downloads. It threw me for a loop, because I thought the code included was for the passport. Apparently once they made passports free at a late stage of development, it was too late to fix the coding in the game, so it's still treating it like a paid passport with an included code.
My fleet is dominating and I'm well on my way to beating all the missions. I've got a few Man o' Wars out and about and a fleet full of frigates and a few schooners for battles. I just need to start scuttling some more ships so I can afford to buy my last few docks. The mini game is fun, and could wind up being very fruitful.
What do you unlock for beating all the Kenway's fleet missions? Besides access to nearly unlimited Reales, of course.
