Pirates a Plenty Matey

               Storms in AC Black Flag are very Realistic

And the fact that you can see pools of water on the deck after hitting a rouge wave is incredible and very realistic, its funny at how meticulous the developers were at making the smallest details obviously great.

      The weapons on your ship is astounding

And unlike other games with the pirate theme this one is the best since Sid Miers released Pirates back on the Xbox many moons ago, the water effects are astounding the sky the clouds and the water spouts racing by your boat in a storm, the lush tropical environment is just as awesome and all the wild life which is all huntable is crazy then theres also the bell wich was real 16th century diving advancement where you have a metal bell they dropped off the side of the boat and you would dive down and use the bell as a spot to breathe without having to resurface which is great since theres just as much to explore under the sea as on the surface.

                              Yes you can even do the classic harpoon fishing

And this is another cool thing to do you can hunt great whites giant tuna whales etc, and its also something like your ship and yourself you can upgrade harpoons boats and upgrade fishing skills as if theres not enough to do in this huge world. Theres really so much to do its overwhelming I like to find the sync sites on the islands where you go to the highest point and sync and you reveal everything on the I add land like chest, maps, points of interest etc.

     Diving under the sea is as happening as land

So im about 30 hours in and although you could beat the main questline in about that many hours im not even close as I have been exploring pirating and upgrading and to give you an example after exploring this island I found I was climbing a ledge and accidentally fell in the water and a great white shark came after me so I dove underwater to a cove and to my surprise I found a tunnel which led to a corpse with 5 chest full of outfits weapons money and unlocked a secret achievement all because I accidentally fell off a ledge see its moments like this that make this an awesome game.

        

         Assassin’s Creed Black Flag is one bad ass pirate game

You know after buying Risen and Flying Fortress for Two Words Two its refreshing to actually play a game about pirates so get this game if your the leaste bit intrigued with pirates.

All those pics are making me drool. I can't wait to play this. I love the ocean, and sailing ships, and all that stuff.

damn, I'm quite intrigued by this.  I just wish it wasn't an Assassin's Creed game.  The best since Pirates! ????   Wow.

Man, that does sound pretty cool. I'm just surprised the developer could get all this together in the year since ACIII.

Awesome! So far, I'm hearing nothing but good things about this game (From friends, I don't read any other reviews except the ones post here on PB) and it really has me intrigued.

Now I just need to find the cash so I can pick this bad boy up...

I really want to get this. I have the funds but I have commitment issues.
