[Gator86]

Well.... we don't need two of these do we?

Microsoft and Rare cannot be happy campers. Is this 2018 I wonder?

Either one will bomb disastrously or both will bomb moderately. Congrats, teams! Rough situation likely incoming.

 

[Hooks]

This looks great!

 

[Robdraggoo]

Looks like I didn't have to buy an Xbox after all

 

[ISee]

Hmm, you have my attention ubisoft.

 

[Terbinator]

You wouldn't download a ship, would you?

 

[Ithil]

Master and Commander: The Game, it seems.

 

[Peroroncino]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck... multiplayer :/

 

[Art Vandilay]

This already looks way more appealing than Sea of Thieves.

 

[Ophiuchus]

I kind of liked the presentation,game looks cool.

 

[Canucked]

I was in %100, and then they said shared, and now I'm out.

 

[Jawbreaker]

Naval RPGs are so hot right now.

 

[Theorry]

This is pretty different then SoT. Way more PVP.

 

[brawly]

LOL it's just multiplayer? GODDAMMIT.

 

[BadWolf]

not likely

2 different games

1 is an ubi game

the other is designed to be fun

Ubi games sell tho, usually in very large numbers.

 

[Sciz]

Well, if Firaxis isn't ever going to give me a Pirates! followup, this might do.

 

[Sidon]

I'm fucking pumped. More Pirates, hell yes.

 

[Ikuu]

LOL it's just multiplayer? GODDAMMIT.

Singleplayer games are dead.

 

[RocBase]

Don't see myself getting the game but that trailer was beautiful

 

[FriskyrumX]

THANK YOU UBISOFT, I've been wanting one since Black Flag.

 

[Raide]

World of Pirate Warships

 

[adamsapple]

Ubisoft:
"Can I use your homework ?"

Rare:
"Sure, but make sure to change it up"

 

[Avinexus]

You had a good run Sea of Thieves.

 

[Kill3r7]

not likely

2 different games

1 is an ubi game

the other is designed to be fun

Ubi has been pretty successful moving units this gen. I just don't see SoT being as big a deal. Even if I were to pick one up it would be SoT.

 

[Shiggy]

This isn't good for Rare.

 

[AgentLampshade]

Can... Can I play it offline?
Don't answer that. I'm so upset.

 

[Moff]

I can't imagine boat battles being very exciting but those graphics are incredible

 

[DrForester]

As we approached the coast of Madagascar, a ship approached with a crew singing a haunting tribal song....

 

[RobRivers]

Does not seem to be similar to SoT except pirate themed.

 

[brawly]

Singleplayer games are dead.

We'll see about that in four hours.

 

[ElFly]

you can become the ultimate pirate kingpin*


*legally different from the pirate king. please do not sue

 

[The Albatross]

Looks good...... but a lot of the same assets from Black Flag, like audio assets, rom the video.

Also totally different game from Sea of Thieves, not close. It's like if Polyphony/Gran Turismo is worried about Nintendo making Mario Kart.

 

[LowlySmokeGuy]

I just skimmed through the video but is there more to it than slow moving ships shooting cannons at each other? It looked boring as hell.

 

[Berserking Guts]

Rares offering looks way more appealing to me.

 

[SomedayTheFire]

Wonder if this hits before Sea of Thieves?

not likely

2 different games

1 is an ubi game

the other is designed to be fun

damn yeah ubi and their sales are struggling. wait.

 

[bigJP]

gotta feel bad for rare
even though games dont play the same, they will get compared.

 

[LycanXIII]

Are you a pirate, or just a pirate ship?

 

[Sou Da]

Does not seem to be similar to SoT except pirate themed.

Yeah from the the stream it seems to be For Honor with ships instead of characters.

 

[ChaosZeroX]

LOL

RIP Sea of Thieves.

This looks way better.

 

[Theorry]

Does not seem to be similar to SoT except pirate themed.

Nah people find a reason to say rip Sea of Thieves.

 

[inky]

Does not seem to be similar to SoT except pirate themed.

Exactly.

Looks more like World of Warships to me. *shurgs* Why everyone believes RARE is suddenly dead on the back of this game is baffling.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Yall can say sea of thieves is different all you want. One game is multiplat, realistic graphics and about pirates too. The masses gonna decide on this lol.

 

[AlStrong]

shots fired

 

[BizzyBum]

What a time to be a pirate.

 

[willoneill]

I mean, this stuff was easily the best part of AC IV and it seems like this is just a full-blown, touched-up version of that.

So yeah, sucks for Sea of Thieves. These guys got to build on something that was very strong already.

 

[Some Nobody]

Well.... we don't need two of these do we?

Microsoft and Rare cannot be happy campers. Is this 2018 I wonder?

Realistic vs cartoons. Microsoft exclusive vs Multi-plat. Most importantly? First vs. Third, right? That's more than enough to separate the two, I'd think.

In fact, there may not be any land exploration in this.

 

[Raide]

Are you a pirate, or just a pirate ship?

Seems like you play a ship that hoovers up loot and auto kills the enemy.

 

[Hippopuncher12]

Looks good. Will probably buy.

 

[Castef]

RIP Rare.

Now... almost everyone is writing very good things about Sea of Thieves.

Why would Rare be dead?

 

[Canucked]

Okay I just said I was out but this looks like fun.

 

[Shil Pencer]

This and sea of thieves are nothing alike besides pirates it's like saying destiny and halo are the same game
