Pirates also done a lot of different things, horrible ones, think they should be in too? I don't want to name them but I think you'll know what. And also, you keep saying that it'll be a good thing, why in the world - in a naval game; would sword fighting be good?

thats the problem, it should NOT just be a naval-only game...

Exploration was what made Black Flag a modern classic. The ability to detach our hands from the jackdaws steering wheel, walk around the ship, walk into the cabin, and venture offshore onto land and swing a selection of swords in beautifully exotic locations already gave us the full pirate experience. Skull and Bones feels somewhat like a "Black-flag lite" where the repetition of being stuck on a boat will get tiresome very quickly for the majority of us Ubi fans. Look at Sea Of Theives. Nobody will pay 60 Bucks for a game when they can play black flag for 10 euros preowned.

So many opportunities are missed with the likes of land-based exploration, pirate layers, expeditions, grog drinking, side quests, the comedy, the many potential excursions, bar fighting, the corruption, backstabbing etc... to break up the repetitive dispair of being shackled to a steering wheel from sunrise to sunset and suffering from an eternal immersion breaking bout of cabin fever for both the protagonist and the human being playing the game. Why not use the humor of Monkey Island? or the inventiveness of Crichtons book Pirate Latitudes and have a 40-70 hour single player campaign. I love your games but I think you are making a huge mistake.

You won't be shackled to your ship There's your hideout as well to explore.

As mentioned in a lot of other posts our focus is your journey at sea as a pirate.

What else should be in than? I dunno, lets add hot air balloons where we drop down fireballs onto ships. That'll do it

I do know, you want your land stuff. What exactly did pirates do on land? I'm not meaning to be profound but it involved ******s and booze. Now, some might bring some historical arguments, but, I've never heard any pirate stories of them walking around.

Looking for hidden treasures? Don't get me started.

You're talking how they're ruining the potential of the game, what in the world do you mean potential? Game looks pretty damn good to me. We already had Black Flag, and we still do. So why would they do the same thing again, I mean they did Rogue as well, we got that one too. What else do you want? Oh wait, we got Odyssey coming out and guess what? Ships fam and a lot of land. Whoa.The potential.

Due to the lack of constructive discussion I have to close this.
