Just who the hell is going to buy this?
Ships were already a huge chore in black flag and now they're making a full blown game that revolves only around this half assed mini game and nothing else. It's gonna get old after 30 minutes the first time you launch the game.

Majority of people loved the ships in Black Flag, thats the reason they were a focus for ACIV after they were a minigame in AC III.
That being said, I don't know if this will do well, feel like its gonna be the next For Honor.
>>387306560
idk man I enjoyed voyage century.
They should made it an mmo, were you explore the a world with krakens and shit and do ship battle, piracy etc, a eve of the sea I gues..
>>387306675
>for honor
literally a clone of chivalry which is a clone basic of mount&blade
>>387306560
>ships were a chore
>half assed mini game
It's people like you that are the reason we don't have a new "Sid Meier's Pirates!" yet.
I loved the boat parts of 4 and rogue but skull and bones kinda looks like a shit mmo. I really want it to be good but what we saw at E3 looked really garbage.

>They should made it an mmo, were you explore the a world with krakens and shit and do ship battle, piracy etc, a eve of the sea I gues..
Its literally that, but its also got conventional pvp modes.
>>387306979
They've only showed off that boring 4v4 mode though, is there even any boarding? Town raiding? Any melee combat at all? It looks like dreadnought or world of warships, but only 4v4.
will you be able to board the enemy ship, at least?
if not, this game is gonna die after 1 month or less
>>387306979
this >>387307089
to be frank you need a star citizen budget to make this even worth while, cause you need an expansive land game, and expansive sea game, then the actual land game play has to be interesting it can easily be fucked
>>387307089
It is all ship based, you're controlling the ship, not the person.
But there is krakens and there is a big world for you to go do shit around, I don't remember the examples he gave.
>>387307191
I think so, but I think its a cutscene, it happens during the gameplay demo I think.
>>387307242
If you can't leave the boat it's a fucking bust
You'd think it'd be easy for Ubisoft to understand that people enjoy using their ship to climb onto other boats and to actually DEPART and explore islands in addition to ship battles.
So fucking stupid. I'm really dissapointed, If you can't explore islands or enter towns, then it's not a pirate game, it's just ship combat.
>>387307242
>But there is krakens and there is a big world for you to go do shit around
Well, introducing your big world to explore game by showcasing the 4v4 ship battle with no boarding or any on-foot gameplay is a shit way of doing it. What's the point of playing a pirate-themed game if there's no freedom to pursue adventure however you see fit? Sid Meier's Pirates! is still the king simply because it understood the appeal of being a pirate.
>>387306560
I liked ACIV like the majority as well but they went full retard by making it multiplayer only.
>>387307408
It is real dumb, no boarding was one of the biggest complaints about asscreed 3, but then they put it in asscreed 4. But obviously just having a ship game instead of a full pirate game is easier to make, especially when you already have the code for the ships, so thats probably why they did it that way.
Proper pirate game would be sweet.
>>387307796
Is it multiplayer only?!
Fucking Ubisoft.
>>387307089
boarding is a cutscene and is basically an "execution". it heals your ship and gives you bonus loot
>>387309656
Whoopie
sea of thieves >>>>>>>>>>>>> Skull of bones
>>387306560
try blackwake, its EA but its kinda fun
The announcement was hilarious when people were falling over themselves because they thought this would be a pirate game.
And then they said its multiplayer pvp.

Off to the brig with ya.

>for honor is a clone of chivalry which is a clone of mountain blade
I don't think I'll see anyone be more wrong today
>>387311109
>you can leave the boat
lmao
>>387311714
can't*
Skull and bones is strictly limited to being on the ship. Sea of thieves is the real pirate games.
>>387306560
I would give my left nut for a single player boat game that's a cross between AC4 and New Horizons.
>the last good naval warfare game was sea dogs
what the fuck went wrong
>>387306560
Wtf, a chore? Ships were literally the best part of the game crackhead.
I hope they can get this game right.
>>387312317
Did they just copy pasta Assassin Creed 4 and call it a day?
>>387312662
Its kinda funny when you think about it.
This pirate IP, is the ripped mechanics of their assassins ip, which was an expanded version of mechanics from a previous game in their assassins ip, which mechanics were ripped from a dropped pirate ip
>forced esports and arcade gameplay
Put it in the fucking garbage
>>387306560
would be my dream game if you could actually board ships instead of a fucking cutscene,couldn't they just copy for honor's combat system.i want to roleplay as a pirate damnit,not as a fucking ship only
