This thread is for the Assassin's Creed fans who want to talk on the subject of the next installment in this series, please don't derail the thread into real world politics and racism debates like the ones that got the previous thread locked. Thank you.

Ubisoft promisses a truly open world of land and sea:
  • the dividing line between naval and ground based exploration no longer exists
  • players will be spending plenty of time on the open ocean, travelling between the game's three main hubs and exploring the world's many extra islands and hidden secrets
  • City-based exploration is still key to the series, Ubisoft stressed
  • Havana, capital of Cuba is described as the most European-style city in the game, like AC2's Florence but under the Caribbean sun. There's also Kingston, a British town similar to AC3's Boston, surrounded by plantations and tobacco fields. Finally, players will explore Nassau, a base for Bahamian buccaneers, and the most traditionally piratey area of the game
  • Kenway can explore submerged wrecks that lie on the ocean bed bursting with treasure
  • Ubisoft is building 50 locations for the game, dotted around the Caribbean map for players to uncover(...) hidden coves full of smugglers, smaller fishing villages,... remote tobacco-rich plantations for some land-based piracy, the series' traditional forts, more Mayan ruins, coconut tree desert islands where you can pick up marooned men for your crew and thick, dense areas of jungle to explore.

Looks interesting. My main gripe is wth is with Desmond and why are we reverting backwards in time? I feel like some Matrix thing is going to happen to Desmond in AC4.

I did enjoy the Naval combat in 3 and if they can improve on that than that is great. Few enough games have any kind of water related content yet alone Naval Combat.

Probably pick it up day one. I have yet to be disappointed with an AC game yet. Even if they are released yearly.
