According to Ubisoft this is alpha gameplay footage.

I'll believe this when I actually see it up and running in a non demo environment.

Looks damn good though, hope it's legit.

Yeap, reminds me of Ryse. But yea, I'll believe it when I see it. Especially being Ubisoft and all...

 

[Asd202]

I'm not really interested in new AC until I see some serious gameplay changes.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

And yet with all these leaks, we've still heard nothing about Comet?

 

[Jonm1010]

I think you'll be pleased. #soon

I just hope that we haven't been fed bullshots like so many previous Ubisoft games.

And frankly until the title is in reviewers hands I'm gonna have a hard time taking your companies promises.

 

[CriterionDog]

They're really gonna call it Assassin's Creed Unity? I thought that was just a code name...

I wouldn't be surprised if they called it Assassin's Creed V: Unity.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Yeap, reminds me of Ryse. But yea, I'll believe it when I see it. Especially being Ubisoft and all...

Huh, now that you've mentioned it, it really does look like something out of Ryse.

We shouldn't have to wait too long to see if it's legit, they should hopefully have a playable demo at E3, especially with it releasing this year.

 

[Noisepurge]

I wouldn't be surprised if they called it Assassin's Creed V: Unity.

i'm really starting to disagree with Ubisoft's naming conventions on this series... such odd choices

I would not have given Black Flag a numbered entry as it was clearly still part of the AC3 saga of Kenways.
A new era should always have the first entry numbered, and it's sequels subtitled. Like they started to do with AC2.

I honestly don't recall "so many Ubisoft games", but I will say I don't think this is worth comparing to Watch_Dogs, given that it's only on high-end consoles and PC. It's not being made to be scalable to the extent that that game was.

I know you didn't mention WD, specifically, but obviously that's the game on everyone's mind right now.

 

[Vire]

Ryse except it's open world with environments bigger than a 2x2 hallway. I'll believe it when I see it.

 

[JawzPause]

Honestly, all the game needs is a crouch.

Think it would alleviate pretty much any issue with any of the stealth missions

let us fucking crouch on command!

Yes fucking yes, I've been saying this for a while and honestly I'm baffled as to why they haven't included it yet

 

[Squire]

Ryse might be pushing it - I've never seen that game in person, so I wouldn't know.

I could totally see it looking as good as, say, Second Son though.

 

[Horse]

I like it.

 

[Vire]

The trailer looks significantly better than Second Son to me, but I guess we'll find out in just a few days.

 

[Rurunaki]

So ready for this.

 

[realcool]

"Let them eat cake."

 

[GungHo]

Only 10?

But seriously, I'm actually impressed that Watch Dogs was a Ubisoft Montreal production, considering the last AC that had a Ubisoft Montreal production title was Brotherhood I think. Maybe AC2.

I expect the credits to initiate the delivery of a pizza.

We had 7 working on Black Flag, with Montreal as lead. It has been the approach for a while.

People talk shit about the amount of studios working on these games, but it's pretty damn impressive to me how well they are able to organize these studios into releasing one cohesive game (well moreso with 4 than 3)

[sjay1994]

This has to be cgi. I mean, jesus christ this looks too good.

 

[OnionPowder]

100% CGI.

 

[Philippo]

Protagonist's outfit is boss as fuck.

 

[Chamber]

Give me these graphics at 480p/25fps.

 

[Impeccable]

I have faith in Ubisoft's graphics considering both of their open world first efforts were beautiful despite being cross generational.

 

[figadapaura]

Looks so good. So glad we're back in Europe for this.

 

[Sami+]

It's Ubisoft, so I'll wait to see what it looks like on actual PS4s.

 

[MayMay]

Guess that's a screencap from the CGI trailer we'll get at E3 (before the actual Demo)

 

[hydruxo]

AC games always look great IMO. So I'm not worried about how it's going to look.

 

[x-Lundz-x]

It's pretty amazing what Ubisoft has done with their studios. They can get these games out on a regular basis and at the quality they deliver is pretty impressive.

 

[Always-honest]

Setting will probably make me buy this on ps4.

I was saying in another thread that this is probably the true AC4. It had to be in development at least a year before black flag released, plus black flag never felt like a numbered entry.

Also given that Aveline would only be in her 50s during the French revolution....I smell an appearance as the mentor. Hype levels rising.

This would almost be too smart for them. I am hoping it comes true.

 

[CriterionDog]

Where did this come from? Looks stunning!

 

[Castcoder]

These graphics smell like a wet dog. No way will we actually play what is presented next week.

 

[Stone Ocean]

I really like the look of the main character in the artworks.

 

[Hidden One]

Hopefully Connor makes an appearance.

Yes, their project management skills are top notch. It's not just the number of people, either. They're spread out all over the world, and yet, as you say, the games generally feel pretty cohesive. It's a skill that lots of other publishers seem in desparate need of.

On behalf of the people and teams that work hard, thank you for the kind words.

 

[Raptor]

I just want the graphics and smoothness of AC4 in this and Im there probably not day one but I will be there lol.

 

[Joeki11a]

So this is THE EZIO of this generation?

 

[Joeki11a]

the above comments, ya its Ubisoft's Ryse lol, Crytek setting the bar.

 

[CriterionDog]

On behalf of the people and teams that work hard, thank you for the kind words.

I am so excited for the reveal! You guys have recently became my favorite dev studio, so keep doing what you're doing. : )

 

[Vire]

Zero chance this is in game.

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

Looks to good to be actual gameplay shots, I don't believe ubi. I'm looking forward to actual gameplay footage.

 

[Taiser]

gawd ... i hope Jesper Kyd is making the score for this one.

 

[Messi]

What are the chances of Ubi giving us more Edward Kenway in the future?

 

[Einhander]

What are the chances of Ubi giving us more Edward Kenway in the future?

I could see it happening as DLC, but that's about it.

 

[Blast Processing]

What are the chances of Ubi giving us more Edward Kenway in the future?

As an expert on AC lore, I would say the chances are exceedingly slim.

but less tailing missions this time around please!
