Я сьогодні за три ходки знайшов 3 золотих кораблі і набив 1000 очок. І це НЕ НА КАРТІ РІВЕН ТАЙДС!

Чекаєте на нічний рейд на карті Поховане Місто. Там йдете в бібліотеку. У бібліотеці дофіга шкафчиків, столів і шухляд. І там ніколи немає натовпу арків, як в лікарні. Саме у бібліотеці під час нічних рейдів я два рази витягнув золоті кораблі із шухляд. Третій корабель я витягнув на карті Стела Монтіс у звичайному рейді у одному з ящиків Архіву.

And you know what? If you wish to increase exotic weapons durabilty you can...

INCREASE EXOTIC WEAPONS DURABILITY!

See? This simple!

Overall, I like what I’m seeing in the Black Flag trailers. But this particular scene really concerns me. According to the story, these events take place right after a night escape through a storm. It’s morning, fog is rising over the water, we can still see flashes of lightning through the mist as the storm fades away. Dolphins are jumping alongside the ship. The characters’ clothes are still soaked after the night chase.

All of these details create an incredible atmosphere and make you believe in this world. This is what you call environmental storytelling — when you can read information about the world through its details.

And what do we get in the remake? Just a regular sunny day, with fishing boats casually floating around in the background. After a storm? Nothing reflects the events of the night. In fact, it even contradicts them.

For some reason, modern developers seem to think that turning on ray tracing automatically makes everything look good. Realistic? Sure. Beautiful? Debatable. Where’s the art direction? Where’s the artistic vision?

This is straight-up an anecdote. Genius strategy. I'm speechless.

So, AI intercepts the ball and goes on a counterattack. It has two options: a clear open space right in front of it, or it can try a long through pass to the player marked with a red circle. My defenders, of course, are running to cover those areas.

And no one in their right mind would make a ground pass directly to that player’s feet, because he’s surrounded by four defenders and the ball would obviously be lost. So I'm calm and relaxed, because I know everything is cleared.

But guess what? AI makes exactly that pass. And it goes through. You know why? Because AI knows that the pass will succeed. And that’s the problem with the game. AI knows what you’re doing and knows how everything will play out, so it completely breaks the logic of the game. Of course, my defence was ruined into pieces after this sucker punch because no one could expect such a move!

It doesn't matter how skilled you are, there’s simply nothing you can do when AI decides to overplay you. This is just one example, but it happens constantly. AI doesn’t even try to hide the fact that it knows where the ball will go and which buttons you’re pressing. It even obviously slowed down my Pogba who could easily intercept that ball.

PS. Also new gameplay is too sluggish and new feints are shiet. At least on PC. I'm sorry but someone had to say it.
