> Figuring out ways to improve your firepower is one of the many undertakings you’ll find in the open-world sandbox of Skull & Bones, an area which will present both PvE and PvP opportunities for enterprising pirates.

>In addition to the threat of rival pirates, the powerful empires and corporations that you prey upon won’t roll over without a fight, and there will be battles that you won’t stand a chance in if you don’t have some friends. Teaming up with other players and forming guilds allows you to pool resources to target big scores, but this too can be a risky proposition. There will be ways to betray your allies in Skull & Bones (this is a pirate game, after all), but the benefits of sailing in in a fleet of complimentary ships will likely outweigh the risks.

Do you think it has potential, or will they just use Black Flag's popularity as a milk cow and not commit to making it great?

My interest flatlined when I saw that boarding enemy ships is just a random draw of whether or not your crew takes over it rather than fighting them head on
They nailed the sea battle aspect but if that's all there is, I don't want it
>>
I figured I'd pass when it turned out it was a multiplayer arena game.
>>
>>380280382
No this is a pirate game, not Naruto+ships
>>
Sea of Thieves has some variety to it. Ship v Ship combat is only fun for so long and right now Skull and Bones just seems to be a nicer looking Blackwake.
>>
>>380280853

This.

The fuck is the point of boarding if you don't meet the enemy captain in the middle of all the smoke and lock swords.

It's literally Assassin's Creed: Black Flag's engine with new assets and ship combat gameplay features. Yet none of the things that make Assassin's Creed fun.
>>
>>380281703
Yeah, making it controlling ships only was a mistake. I want to search for treasure and get drunk in Nassau and shit. Just no fucking tailing missions or crappy secret history story.
>>
>we took Black Flag, removed 90% of the game and made it multiplayer
>>
>>380279505
>you won’t stand a chance in if you don’t have some friends
Instantly lost all interest.

When I first heard about this game I thought "Holy shit I've always wanted a non MMO, pirate, open world game, similar to Elite Dangerous and Star Citizen but more fleshed out and with better combat." Then this happened, fuck my dreams. Hey at least I found out it was gonna suck before release unlike No Mans Lie
>>
>>380281062
But blackwake actually has some depth in relying on a crew of real players and managing resources. This is a shallow ship combat game in comparison
>>
>>380279505
Sid Meier's Pirates Remake Remake when? 2004 had a good premise but I'd like to see some improvements and more depth

2 questions, can I blackbeard the shit out of my ship by doubling its cannons and can I get a galleon? I want something with 80 guns.

I don't even know anymore.

>>380285438
It really is a problem isnt it?
>>
>>380284017
In the main game mode, probably I guess.
The other game modes lock you into a specific type of ship, like the PvP one they showed was either Frigate, Brigantine or Sloop-O'-War.
>>
would play - if it was singleplayer.

But fuck that forced multiplayer shit.

What exactly did he mean by this?
>>
>>380286569
If only. You know it will still sell well. Fuck everything.
>>
Why did (((they))) name it after the shadowy group?
>>
>>380286752
He meant BOARDING.
>>
>>380280740
this jesus fuck

all they had to do was let you copy ass creed combat i didn't even expect the swordfighting and treasure island exploran' to be good, simply for it to exist.
>>
I will never understand how a company can be so out of touch with its demographic. Like holy shit, yes, the fact we wanted a pirate game had solely to do with ships and nothing with pirates. Those shanty's sure are immersive as I capture the flag, and press X to watch a 2sec boarding cutscene, in for honor mp.....Fucking retards. Now we will NEVER get a proper pirate game. FUCK my life.

>>380281782
>all the things that make Assassin's creed fun
>in a game based on the only thing that made that partucular Assassin's Creed fun.

Bait, but still man. Try harder.
>>
Will only give a shit if i can run trade routes in a sloop while nimbly avoiding pirate groups trying to steal my plunder.
>>
You won't even be able to create your own pirate. You choose from a set few just like For Honor.

So, am I seeing this right? It's a pirate game like black flag, except multiplayer only and you only pilot the ship instead of walking around and exploring / fighting like in asscreed?

Who the FUCK THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA?
>>
>>380281782
THE DEVIL DICK

>>380288485
>implying it wont just be 5v5 matchmaking with unbalanced gameplay and shit servers they wont fix for years if ever
>>
>>380283768
For Honor looked legitimately good. This looks shit right from the second they showed you're just a fucking ship.
>>
>>380279505
I pretty much lost all interest when I realized you can't leave your ship or board enemy ships and there's no single player story

Really what the fuck is up with this always online bullshit in everything nowadays
>>
>>380281023
One Piece is older than Naruto.
>>
>>380286924
I honestly doubt it will. Not even the normies can save this one.
>>
>>380279505
traces and projectile speed seem fucked up
And I am also not sure if boarding is RNG shit or you actually fight, hard to tell
>>
>>380279505
Did they confirm there's single player on it? Thought they said it's multiplayer only.
>>
>>380289998
and not nearly as culturally significant
>>
>>380290919
I think they're going for the Destiny formula. You can do some stuff single player but most stufff is multiplayer.

-Shared open world = Explroration and Story Missions but can encounter other players
-Disputed Waters = Crucible PvP
-Hunting Grounds = Co-Op Strikes and Raids
