Counter attacks seem more responsive too. The ship customization is deeper than I thought it'd be pretty cool still customization could of been better all around has been in the past. The flintlock pistols work well you can move while aiming now. Also the games not so easy on beginners poor tutorials sometimes none that you'd expect in the past to pop up an teach you how to play without stopping to read you'll have to do a little reading to learn to play especially with sailing but the e manual in games pretty nice. You can barely simply run around crowded obstacle filled areas without him wasting time climbing something or running up a wall you wanted to go through or around or when you try to run up to a chest to loot it he'll run up on the chest half the time unless you walk to it. The games freerunning has been more responsive in the past you only hold R1 to freerun not X too so you cant simply jog without free running into something anymore it can be extremely annoying when Edward does something you didn't intend and you die or fail a mission for it. You use skins and materials collected from hunting and sailing to upgrade you and your ship. There's many more new animal's and you can harpoon sharks and whales. There's hundred's of tiny to big island's you can walk on although most aren't worth exploring and some feel like they've been copy pasted around the games world. You can sail your ship anywhere, fight other ships of all different sizes weak and strong, jump out at anytime go explore an island, go hunting, or just roam the cities as always killing guards. The game's world is very massive and beautiful. Not the best Assassin's Creed ever but close. Assassins Creed 2 is still the best AC but Black Flags still a must play!
