The amount of effort put into this game's detail is amazing. I'm not a huge gamer but this game made me very happy. I remember all the happy times I had. Even not doing missions you can just cruise around the caribbean and have your crew sing shanties . "I dreamed a dream, the other night Lowlands! Lowlands away me John" Thank you so much for this. I can't wait to play the other AC gamrs
honestly, this game has blown me away. you guys did a great job with the naval combat and boarding action I was addicted to it as soon as I got full control of the jackdaw and was able to upgrade. I spent hours plundering ships for materials to upgrade the jackdaw and even Edward himself, I love how you made the upgrade system. also, I loved what you did with the stealth gameplay, you said you wanted to improve it and you did well done. ive never felt stealthier as an assassin. kudos Ubisoft.
This game is an insane amount of fun, especially for folks who loved Sid Meier's Pirates! back in the day. Only complaint's I have are the usual ones about Uplay bullshit for features available in the main campaign.
What makes the franchise so unique from other video games is it's historical characters and events. Along with the games including a beautiful open world with amazing soundtrack. Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag is the biggest on yet! I cannot wait what Ubisoft will create next.
The mission is in the game. and also yes i do want him to wear his hood more. I hate playing him without his hood. he has the best assassin outfit (my opinion)
Seika Ailees Yea, I hate that Edward keeps taking off his hood. I mean assassins are suppose wear the hoods most of the time, but since Edward isn't really an assassin, he's just a pirate with shockingly amazing skills, I guess he doesn't have to wear the hood. Still, this game is fucking amazing and so fun.
When I first watched this demo I was so pumped for the game, I thought it was going to be the best game ever... but when I actually got the game, it turned out to be a complete pile of AWESOMENESS!
This game is amazing, I have played for 3 days straight and I'm only on sequence six. Thank you ubisoft for listening to our feedback and making something beautiful of it
The reason the combat is so easy it’s because Edward was so skilled that the enemies were so easy either that or Ubisoft is just lazy but I’ll stick with the first one
just got this game on the 29th been playing it for 2 days stopping only for food and sleep. this game is EPIC! im addicted and only in sequence 5. do yourself a favor and buy this game, you won't regret it!
This game is so awesome, I finally got my copy and i love playing it. Whats more awesome is that you can put on previous Assassins characters robes such as Altair or Ezio Auditore or Connor so it makes u feel like your playing the old assassins but just riding a ship most of the time... still they forgot to put in Ezio's robe that he used in Revelations that robe was pretty cool. I just generally love AC Black flag, I think its a huge step up from other assassins creed especially AC III that game was kinda boring. I rate the game 10/10 One bad thing about the game is that Jackdaw edition only comes for PS4 i believe, they should bring it out for xbox 360/PS3 because if they did then we can all have Proper Black sails for the ship, If you dont know what i mean then youtube it and you will understand
All u who are saying no more kenways... do you just not like them? ezio had 3 games the kenways only had 2 and im getting really pissed off with all the ezio fanboys... guess what HES DEAD!!! If you want ezio go play his games and let us real ac fans enjoy the future ac games with new characters and content.
Man it is so awesome seeing Desmond's ancestors, and the assassins of the past! I still can't believe its already been a year since... Well.. You know.
Thats my exact point! Melee combat was semi easy in AC1 and 2, but nobody felt like doing it because it was so slow paced. If they added the satisfying kills from AC4/3 with the slower paced combat, tackling 2/3 soldiers at once would be hugely satisfying, while 5/7 is just a total hassle and you'd more rather do a Assassin escape at that point. THAT is what made the game fun to play before, because the kills were satisfying, but the sheer amount of time you'd waste fighting to see that animations wasn't worth it sometimes, so you'd just run. That's what separates AC combat from Batman, AC is Slow yet Satisfying when done right! While Batman is just a fast paced adrenaline rush. The guys at Ubisoft Toronto need to look at real life sword fighting, and notice how slowly it can go at times. Once you get momentum it's quite quick, but it takes a long time to get there, parrying and staring your opponent down, deflecting their attacks and making sure to keep harassing them to get a opportunity. Theres a lot more dodging and sword clashing, than there is cutting and killing.
I love the pirate era, and assassins creed is one of my favourite game series. I can see me becoming obsessed with this game now that I have bought it.
Honestly, I feel like this is the kind of game that deserves, to be game of the year... I mean seriously- this kind of concept and idea is something really hard to execute, And they did it amazingly well.
Best AC yet. I have gotten so immersed in the game I was just battling other ships and harpooning whale for hours then remembering there was a story line I needed to do haha. It is awesome.
This video made me get the pre-order and I still have all the goodies that came with it, this game took my expectations on a fancy dinner with extra dessert!
You know this seems like a FANTASTIC pirate game that just happens to be attached to the world of Assassin's Creed. And I think that's what I'll think of it when I finally play it.
This is one of the best open world games I've ever played. All the trailers and the e3 gameplay exhibits never did this game justice. It's a gta 5 killer.
5:55 - "Very important for the mood and the immersiveness of this Carribbean open world" No friggin doubt about that, I played for 8 hours non stop before I realized it was 3am.... :)
Reminds me a bit of the windwaker. The feel and openness of the world in that game was amazing and so it seems with this one, even better I hope since it's a more mature game and technology is alot more advanced now.
This is not a "mission",this is just open world gameplay,and yes the things he does are in the final game.If you mean the assassination mission,it is also in the game. They removed the "crouching" option in the final version of the game.Would be great if they kept it,it looks kind of funny when you just walk in plain sight while trying to be stealthy.
Altair's timeline is technically in the Medieval ages. The medieval ages ran between the 5th to the 15th century, so you already got that with Altair. Samurai and Egyptian would be interesting, but we're going forward in the game not backwards. Egyptian is further back in time than the Middle Ages. Although AC4 is technically backwards since it's Connor's grandfather. *shrugs*
[contd.]... Add to that the fact that Ezio developed his Eagle vision to the point that it is called Eagle Sense... this shows the potential of his bloodline, which Connor failed to exhibit so its more probable that Connor is a descendant of Altair. Also, the reason why Altair and Ezio posses this Eagle Vision/Sense is because they descended directly from the first civilization. So the convergence would be that much more powerful. Though its all for naught because Desmond is dead.
I pre-ordered the skull edition and idk why but i've already got it delivered today.. and yup the map is way bigger than gtav's, its surreal how big it is. The extra outfits and weapons that come along with the skull edition are pretty awesome!
Been playing for 2 days already. Needs a few more patch to fix FPS drops and texture pop-ins, but I can tell 1 and 1 thing only, this is probably the best AC ever made. Usually I would play around 30 minutes to 1 hour then I would get bored and play other games, and come back to it later. But this game is sooo much fun and there's TONS to do, I played and then I realised I've been playing for 5 hours non-stop. Soooo much fun
I feel as though the elephant in the room in terms of settings for future Assassin's Creed games has been the society of Those Who Came Before ever since Assassin's Creed II. How crazy would that be?
Well you probably know by now, but yes they are very alike, only there are some more loading screens for some of the bigger islands but further they are very much alike
Yes he is. Desmond lives through the Animus his ancestor's lives. Altair, Ezio & Connor. Edward Kenway is Haytham Kenway's father, which makes Connor his grandson. So yes Desmond is a descendant of his.
Well the thing is Altair's bloodline and Ezio's bloodline are two different ones. Desmond's one parent is related to Altair, while the other to Ezio. Makes sense? So Connor is related to one (not both) of the original Assassins. AC: Liberation is basically a spin-off not related to the main hierarchy of assassins. :)
I found a cool easter egg at the beginning of the game in abstergo offices. I overheard a conversation hinting that they will do ancient Egypt and Japan in future Assassins Creed games.
this is better then any game i have every played u guys real out done u guys out done your selfs cant wait to play the game and see if u guys make another assassins creed
I was the exact same until I picked up the game. It just has a different feel to it. Its very refreshing. One of the best in the series to say the least.
I recommend playing all of them or at least reading really good summaries of each game. You'll be really confused if you just pop in AC4. You won't have any idea of the back story.
I remember I used to love this game so much like i would literally watch this gameplay 24/7 idk why even in 2021 I’m still back to this one
There is something about this demo tho... the liberty around it, it's amazing.
@@brxnv_ I remember in 2013 I would specifically only watch This open world gameplay demo , and I was like 12 years old
Same i used to keep black flag wallpaper in my computer
I wish the full game have this mechanism. This us so much better than the actual game.
No way I also used to constantly rewatch this video when I was a kid and waiting for the game to release
This is the best AC so far! Just the size of the world makes the game worth playing. I hope the newer games will be just as involved.
this is my 2nd fav AC
about world... what about Rogue? its 2x this map
They need to hire this guy again to be another crative director on another ac game
They need to stop producing games every 11 months.
They say the creators of black flag will be working on the 2017 ac
+tyler cecire (Bane)
this guy need to make another open world game,dont have to be AC
Well well well, your profile pick makes a little sense now
I think what u meant is ac valhalla
The amount of effort put into this game's detail is amazing. I'm not a huge gamer but this game made me very happy. I remember all the happy times I had. Even not doing missions you can just cruise around the caribbean and have your crew sing shanties .
"I dreamed a dream, the other night
Lowlands! Lowlands away me John"
Thank you so much for this.
I can't wait to play the other AC gamrs
the game is soooooooooo Awesome i played it please keep making the game it will be dope
Ok now need a black flag 2, he is the best AC.
Best Assassin's Creed ever like if you agree!
***** Naval stealth, tailing missions, open-ended assassinations and decent stealth tools. Yeah, this is THE stealthiest in the franchise.
Python1026 I always hated the ship system >_>
Nope. Worst Assassins Creed game. Far worse than ACIII.
Tim Harrison no no thats acu
OH YEAH! This was an amazing comeback after the disappointment of Assassin's Creed 3, and rogue improved on 4's mechanics and stuff!
honestly, this game has blown me away. you guys did a great job with the naval combat and boarding action I was addicted to it as soon as I got full control of the jackdaw and was able to upgrade. I spent hours plundering ships for materials to upgrade the jackdaw and even Edward himself, I love how you made the upgrade system. also, I loved what you did with the stealth gameplay, you said you wanted to improve it and you did well done. ive never felt stealthier as an assassin. kudos Ubisoft.
This game is an insane amount of fun, especially for folks who loved Sid Meier's Pirates! back in the day. Only complaint's I have are the usual ones about Uplay bullshit for features available in the main campaign.
What an amazing demo, and what's even cooler is that you can do everything advertised here.
i just know the assassin's creed 4 skull edition is under my tree i can feel the marking of the assassin's creed logo on the metal case lol
You shouldn't be feeling your presents this early lad, otherwise you won't be surprised when you open it on Yule (Christmas if you are a Christian)
Lol you got a bear
Yo bro u still alive?
What makes the franchise so unique from other video games is it's historical characters and events. Along with the games including a beautiful open world with amazing soundtrack. Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag is the biggest on yet! I cannot wait what Ubisoft will create next.
Thumbs up if your watching this even though you bought the game because you want Edward to wear his hood more, and I want this mission so badly ;-;
The mission is in the game. and also yes i do want him to wear his hood more. I hate playing him without his hood. he has the best assassin outfit (my opinion)
Seika Ailees ^
Seika Ailees Yea, I hate that Edward keeps taking off his hood. I mean assassins are suppose wear the hoods most of the time, but since Edward isn't really an assassin, he's just a pirate with shockingly amazing skills, I guess he doesn't have to wear the hood. Still, this game is fucking amazing and so fun.
wtf?!!
Hi im a huge fan
OMG I almost had a heart attack when I saw how awesome this game is I'm so glad I pre-ordered it! :3
When I first watched this demo I was so pumped for the game, I thought it was going to be the best game ever... but when I actually got the game,
it turned out to be a complete pile of AWESOMENESS!
This game is amazing, I have played for 3 days straight and I'm only on sequence six. Thank you ubisoft for listening to our feedback and making something beautiful of it
I would replay this game if it has more difficult combat like in Unity.
The reason the combat is so easy it’s because Edward was so skilled that the enemies were so easy either that or Ubisoft is just lazy but I’ll stick with the first one
Black Flag was much better than Unity! Unity's bugs were a nightmare, game looked pretty amazing tho!
Bugs aside unity was the superior assassin creed game.
They r fixed now right
This game is fucking amazing
just got this game on the 29th been playing it for 2 days stopping only for food and sleep. this game is EPIC! im addicted and only in sequence 5. do yourself a favor and buy this game, you won't regret it!
Amazing
This game is so awesome, I finally got my copy and i love playing it.

Buy the Pirate Outfit. It looks amazing.
yes
This dude Probably Never played the Homesteas And Side missions On AC3 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Well its 7 years ago He's prob dead by now
All u who are saying no more kenways... do you just not like them? ezio had 3 games the kenways only had 2 and im getting really pissed off with all the ezio fanboys... guess what HES DEAD!!! If you want ezio go play his games and let us real ac fans enjoy the future ac games with new characters and content.
FINNALLY! SOMEBODY ELSE SAID THAT SHIT!!! Ezio is in the PAST! I await for the future! :)
To be honest I really would've wanted to see more from Edward's life.
yeah thats right.. even desmond is gone
THANK YOU! atleast im not the only one!
heh thanks
Man it is so awesome seeing Desmond's ancestors, and the assassins of the past! I still can't believe its already been a year since... Well.. You know.
Upgrade the GPU
Hang in there brothers, just 11 days left for the PC version of this masterpiece.
Thumbs up if you played Sid Meir's Pirates.
I remember how excited I was for this
i have the most time played on this game than any other AC lol
Sadly melee combat is way to easy in this game.
it was easy in AC3 as well
Thats my exact point! Melee combat was semi easy in AC1 and 2, but nobody felt like doing it because it was so slow paced. If they added the satisfying kills from AC4/3 with the slower paced combat, tackling 2/3 soldiers at once would be hugely satisfying, while 5/7 is just a total hassle and you'd more rather do a Assassin escape at that point.

That's what separates AC combat from Batman, AC is Slow yet Satisfying when done right! While Batman is just a fast paced adrenaline rush. The guys at Ubisoft Toronto need to look at real life sword fighting, and notice how slowly it can go at times. Once you get momentum it's quite quick, but it takes a long time to get there, parrying and staring your opponent down, deflecting their attacks and making sure to keep harassing them to get a opportunity. Theres a lot more dodging and sword clashing, than there is cutting and killing.
The way to win any melee fight is spam E, for long range, use a human shield. It's stupidly easy.
It's good combat is easy and everything goes so fast, you really feel like unstoppabble assassin
Electrifying 3:16 I agree that I feel unstoppable but there needs to be a balance of being unstoppable and being killable.
4:40 "We'll give you a special offer of not one, not two, but three bullets in your chest! Doesn't that bargain just make you want to drop dead!?" lol
I love the pirate era, and assassins creed is one of my favourite game series. I can see me becoming obsessed with this game now that I have bought it.
I have never been an assassins creed fan... couldn't help myself and tried it out.... amazing!! Get this game!!
I used to watch these videos every day while waiting for the game to get released. Definetly worth the money
NOW I WANT THE SERIES!!!
Honestly, I feel like this is the kind of game that deserves, to be game of the year... I mean seriously- this kind of concept and idea is something really hard to execute, And they did it amazingly well.
Best AC yet. I have gotten so immersed in the game I was just battling other ships and harpooning whale for hours then remembering there was a story line I needed to do haha. It is awesome.
Jake's Idea of having one around the samurai era would be awesome!!!!! Especially with all the specialty weapons you could have!
The ending was really good actually, the only thing sad about it was Haythem but we already knew that.
oh man the PC version of the game is really stunning, cant wait 3 more weeks.
Just finished the game in 4K glory. What a beautiful and immensely entertaining game!!
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY. the english subtitles says what he says.
This video made me get the pre-order and I still have all the goodies that came with it, this game took my expectations on a fancy dinner with extra dessert!
With this game all of the sudden I'm interested in History (Mayans,Pirates, Spanish conquers etc. Best Game Ever!!!
Looking back now that the game has been out for a while I noticed how different a game can be just a month before release.
Awesome Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag Video.
Being a long time fan of age of sail games and sid meier's priates, this is right up my alley.
You know this seems like a FANTASTIC pirate game that just happens to be attached to the world of Assassin's Creed. And I think that's what I'll think of it when I finally play it.
As someone from Trinidad this is kinda like the Caribbean. Really cool!
Getting this tonight at midnight
This is one of the best open world games I've ever played. All the trailers and the e3 gameplay exhibits never did this game justice. It's a gta 5 killer.
i agree and don't forget to add how the graphics look in assassin's creed 4
Omg a samurai one would be awesome, and the roman gladiator too! :)
Oh I think they will. Feels like to me with each game they found some way to add more and more collectibles.
5:55 - "Very important for the mood and the immersiveness of this Carribbean open world"
No friggin doubt about that, I played for 8 hours non stop before I realized it was 3am.... :)
Damn
This is giving me an ac2 feeling
This looks great, I'm definitely going to look into buying this for Christmas.
Ok TH-cam why are you recommending this to me after 4 years ??
Strange but so awesome. I live in the Netherlands and i got this game today on 26 October!!!!!! Now playing it! I don't know how but i love it!
Reminds me a bit of the windwaker. The feel and openness of the world in that game was amazing and so it seems with this one, even better I hope since it's a more mature game and technology is alot more advanced now.
This is not a "mission",this is just open world gameplay,and yes the things he does are in the final game.If you mean the assassination mission,it is also in the game.

Samurai and Egyptian would be interesting, but we're going forward in the game not backwards. Egyptian is further back in time than the Middle Ages. Although AC4 is technically backwards since it's Connor's grandfather. *shrugs*
This looks amazing
Thank you for not spoiling it ;).

Also, the reason why Altair and Ezio posses this Eagle Vision/Sense is because they descended directly from the first civilization. So the convergence would be that much more powerful. Though its all for naught because Desmond is dead.
I have never been a player or fan of assassins creed but dam this looks good
Just here for my daily watch.
I pre-ordered the skull edition and idk why but i've already got it delivered today.. and yup the map is way bigger than gtav's, its surreal how big it is. The extra outfits and weapons that come along with the skull edition are pretty awesome!
Enjoyed this video and the editing is awesome.
Agreed, it gets old with this being the only game mode, having more coordinated attacks with your friends would be great.
Been playing for 2 days already. Needs a few more patch to fix FPS drops and texture pop-ins, but I can tell 1 and 1 thing only, this is probably the best AC ever made. Usually I would play around 30 minutes to 1 hour then I would get bored and play other games, and come back to it later. But this game is sooo much fun and there's TONS to do, I played and then I realised I've been playing for 5 hours non-stop. Soooo much fun
aahhh the good ole days...
One of the best assassins creed games
THE BEST pirate game out there.
Really can't wait to get this game it's so Epic...
I havent played an Assasins Creed game before, but I want to get this one. Looks really cool.
Cant wait to go pick this up tuesday
Sweet! I'm working the midnight release for this and BF4, can't wait to see everyone there!
Cant wait to play this on christmas with my ps4
All assassins who are born in the Altair lineage were BORN with eagle sense. This trait was inherited, not developed over time.
I feel as though the elephant in the room in terms of settings for future Assassin's Creed games has been the society of Those Who Came Before ever since Assassin's Creed II. How crazy would that be?
Well you probably know by now, but yes they are very alike, only there are some more loading screens for some of the bigger islands but further they are very much alike
Yes he is. Desmond lives through the Animus his ancestor's lives. Altair, Ezio & Connor. Edward Kenway is Haytham Kenway's father, which makes Connor his grandson. So yes Desmond is a descendant of his.
i need to get this game for my ps4 next month, this game looks boss!, i am gonna get so many other pirate ships on the sea
I have the Pirates of the Carribean song in my head while watching this! lol This is gonna be great!! ARRRRRRRRRRRR!!!
It's not a pirate game,it's a TRUE pirate experience! This game takes the best of what assassins creed is and makes it real!
I can't wait for Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag, the last one was killer good fun.
seems like by far the best ac yet. also the best character.
Well the thing is Altair's bloodline and Ezio's bloodline are two different ones. Desmond's one parent is related to Altair, while the other to Ezio. Makes sense? So Connor is related to one (not both) of the original Assassins. AC: Liberation is basically a spin-off not related to the main hierarchy of assassins. :)
AAARGH, This is A good character!
I found a cool easter egg at the beginning of the game in abstergo offices. I overheard a conversation hinting that they will do ancient Egypt and Japan in future Assassins Creed games.
That was an epic 13 minutes 51 seconds I just spent.
this is better then any game i have every played u guys real out done u guys out done your selfs cant wait to play the game and see if u guys make another assassins creed
This game is SO AWESOME getting for my bday tomorrow!!!
I was the exact same until I picked up the game. It just has a different feel to it. Its very refreshing. One of the best in the series to say the least.
Awesome! I hope they're gonna make an Assassin's Creed game set in the Wild West!
damn it Ubisoft, I'm gonna be so ADDICTED to this game
I recommend playing all of them or at least reading really good summaries of each game. You'll be really confused if you just pop in AC4. You won't have any idea of the back story.
I'd like to see a civil war era assassin. Like you play as an escaped slave or something. That would be cool.
that game was the best , them ps2 days
This game is amazing only one criticism is would be better if we was able to change ships to what the player prefers
