Agreed. Connor was terrible compared to Ezio.
Haytham was lame as fuck too. I do hope they go back to the beauty that was ACII and ACII Brotherhood but it's probably gonna be ACIII-esque again

People liked the naval battles the most about AC3 (which sadly turned out to mostly be a mess), so they give us a game based on pirates. Pretty damn cool if you ask me.

The naval missions were cool, but the majority of the missions were short. One of the missions was very frustrating if you wanted to get 100% sync, which was taking out 3 enemy ships by hitting the weak spot (if you upgraded your boat ram you're screwed).
Ubisoft said that whenever they introduce a new character from a different time period, it would be a numbered game. In this case, I wish the number 4 was not in the title. The title "Assassin's Creed: Black Flag" has a cooler and better ring to it. I am surprise that we will be following and playing Edward Kenway (father of Haytham and grandfather of Connor) since fans of the universe already know what happens to him unless they retcon... I wished we got more of Connor since he was not developed as much as the previous ancestors. I honestly liked him the most out of Altair and Ezio. Alex Hutchinson said there won't be a Brotherhood/Revelations type of game for Connor, but I think there will be in the future since they said the same thing about Ezio after the sequel was released.

That was quick. They should be careful not to be burn people out.

I hope they don't follow the steps of ACIII. I really didn't enjoy it at all. Heck, I don't even want to finish it. I enjoy the mechanics, but the flow of the game just feels way off. Connor's personality was also not that great.

I think some are already burned out since Revelations. There has been a new game almost every year minus the gap from the first game to the second.

The problem was that the developers made the development of Connor in the side missions such as the Homestead missions. That is where you see his personality shine more. From a casual gamer's view, it is easy to end up not liking Connor since the majority of the time he is a naive, impatient, and an angry person. Most of the time he is yelling at someone and yelling the name of "WHERE IS CHARLES LEEEEEEE?!"

Personally I think it's a pretty meh idea. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure they can make a ridiculously awesome pirate game with a similar engine, but it would have so much more potential as a true pirate game (a new IP) than a sequel to AC. Hell, make a really good AC game on the one hand, and make a really good pirate game on the other.

I have no idea how this is going to work considering the end of AC3. I'm assuming its a different modern day protagonist?

+ Show Spoiler +At the end of AC3, a group of people hacked into the Animus, so they have access to Desmond's DNA

I did those missions and still thought Connor was a terrible character. He was just a simplistic kid who when compared to Ezio and Altier is just a massive failiure.

Connor was monotone and boring as hell. You don't go from someone as interesting to Ezio to Conner and expect a good reaction.
|
Tbh, this seems a bit hasty. I expected a couple of AC3 "expansions" like they did with AC2 to milk some more money out of it and flesh out Connor a bit more. Oh well, I'm still probably gonna buy this game.
+ Show Spoiler +Here's to hoping Ubisoft doesn't royally fuck up the ending to Juno's reign of terror. Yes, I'm still a little bitter after the way 3 ended.

Being a pirate is pretty cool.

This series has truly become Ubisoft's CoD. They seemed to have forgotten that it actually takes time and effort to make a good game.
|
The game's reveal will be the upcoming Monday. It will probably be the same as Assassin's Creed III's with a short teaser trailer.
The game will be released on the PS3, Xbox 360, Wii U, PC along with the PS4 and the new Xbox.
