Finally, what looks like, a good looking Pirate ship combat game....

I think Ubisoft are going to bankrupt me this/next year...

What’s that you say? Blackflag minus the Assassin parts?! I’m in!!

The moment they called frigate the second rate Ship of the Line, I had to stop the video.

I'm in! The moment I saw that Kraken in the early trailers a few years ago I wanted to see this game evolve. The trailers at E3 looks absolutely stunning - black flag steroids minus the poor assassin's storyline ftw. I hope it has sea shanties!

Just watched the gameplay footage, it looks amazing! Can't wait to play it

Some more gameplay... It's looking rather good

Although I am looking forward to the game

Agreed!!!

Yep, this is a definite for me! I have been waiting for a proper pirate game for as long as I can remember! Black Flag did it really well so I'm glad they took all the bits from that and made a standalone game.

If there's an awesome story to go along with that gameplay then i'm in.

Arcade bro, that's why the cannon balls explode on impact.

Pass.

I just want a single player, realistic sea faring game (with some effort made with wind, sail, sea, crew, gunnery). Something set in the 18th century with various navies and letters of marque etc.

Wow wouldn't that be awesome haha. Sadly, the closest we got to that was nearly 20 years ago, and even that was a buggy mess but was still brilliant.

It's just cartoon rubbish now, like a lot of stuff I'm afraid.

Looks fantastic but not sure how much longevity it will have for me. Might well be worth a purchase though.
