Question 1

What kind of gameplay should I expect from this?

Accepted Answer

If you are familiar with the series then you will have a pretty good idea. Combat mechanics have not changed much. Its a little more fluent. Better weapon selections. As well as armors. Naval combat and exploration is a much improvement over its previous release of AC3. All in all a great buy. If your interested in trophies/achievements there is a lil more of a challenge. I was able to get the platinum trophies on all previous games fairly easy on one play threw. This one took me atleast 2 to obtain all including the platinum.

Question 2

Could I free roam this open world map? Like for ex: Skyrim. Or is this a sand box map, ex: Dishonored?
Thank you

Accepted Answer

Yes and no. If you ever played AC games things are blocked off until you finish missions same goes here but there's a lot of exploring to do and collectibles. The good news is after you get your ship and can customize it you can free roam about 90% of the game (hunt for buried treasure, underwater wrecks, hunt animals and get into naval battles). Its not exactly open world like Skyrim.

Question 3

is this game fun? how long is the campaign? is the multiplayer cool?

Accepted Answer

Its amazing. However the campaign is short compared to some of the other games and. The ending kind of sneaks up on you so for that reason I don't like the story arc as much as the other games but overall it's a great game. the multiplayer hasn't changed much and as always it's worth playing.

Question 4

Is anyone having problems with their game? I keep seeing soldiers which appear bright red even when there is structure blocking view, is this normal?  Is this a problem with the game or the console? Is anyone else having this issue?

Accepted Answer

The guards appearing in red is normal and is an ability you have in the game to lock certain guards as targets.  Once they're locked as targets they're visible through structures.  You'll know when you're using the vision ability as the screen turns to a more black and white view instead of color.  As far as problems with the game?  No, no problems with the game at all!
