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.

Mortar This sounds really good, I am getting more and more excited for the game.


me too, might be one of my favorites I can tell


This will definitely blow many other great games off the top of the leaderboards.


People are saying the same thing about GTA V, but i doubt either one will beat the next CoD because so many people buy it every year.


that's because they're expecting great changes to CoD.


Yea, there expecting alot of good things for some big named games for the next-gen system!
