Assassin's Creed 4 to feature 'connected' single-player systems on next-gen

4.6
As you may or may not know, Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag is a next-gen game, and will feature some new special systems on console versions, like a "connected" single-player mode, creative director Jean Guesdon said in an internal Q&A.

"Next-gen versions will bring to the players new, connected features allowing them to feel that even if they remain 'single player,' it will be better to be a 'single connected player,'" Guesdon says. "I mean that next-gen Consoles will allow players to have a solo experience that benefits the presence of a huge community."

Guesdon didn't go into detail about the connected systems. He did outline some more info about the game, including the "horizon system," which provides characters aboard the ship with "pirate opportunities," side-quests specific to an individual player's progress. Ubisoft has six studios working on Black Flag: Montreal, Singapore, Sofia and Québec working on single-player content, and Annecy and Bucharest developing multiplayer.

Ero I have never in my life played one of these games, but i`m going to buy the third one.


That's insane man, not even the iOS games or anything??


iOS games of major hits, AC, CoD, etc, are awful and make the game look bad.
The controls are just awful and very frustrating to get a hang of.


yeah i don't really bother with games on my iPhone at all. maybe temple run here and there, but Zombies is terrible on it

You need to go play one right now.


he should start off with the first, it would only make sense to


The first one isn't that great. I played that one second to last, it didn't effect the overall experience at all.

Those aren't even good :p

But seriously, not even the second one? It's incredible.


I know, they are terrible. But I thought he might have played one of those at least!
