Holy crap I just realized how much customization is in this game!!! You can customize the s**t outta Arno. SO. BAD. ASS!

Iv already got the gold edition downloaded on my Xbox. Iv just been staring at it for the longest time. LET ME PLAY DAMN YOU!!!!

Pop ins!

But seriously, I do look forward to this game. I hope they have finally eliminated the stupid "present" story.

I wish the game was in French with subtitles personally.

I assume they do a French dub, so, they could have had that be a thing.

I HATED the Native American stuff in AC3. I tend to only play games at night and subtitles makes me tired. Just give me British people..

I went ahead and preordered this at my local gamestop today. I'm sold on this.

I can't read the tiny subtitles on my 32" tv. Eyesight issues. Like another poster said, those Native American subtitles in 3 were tedious. An entire game subtitled would almost guarantee that I wouldn't be able to enjoy the story.

Anyone know if we will be able to customize the co op characters the way we can customize Arno?

I tend to be listening to podcasts while I play video games, so I like subtitles. I don't think I want to hear guys talking in non-English throughout the game either tho.

WTF? Why in the blue hell would you do that?

I'm pretty sure you can.

Because when else am I going to listen to these podcasts? Can't do it at work.

 

[Benstamania]

I listen in the shower.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

That's awesome. I was blown away about the level of customization for Arno. Can't wait.

I do that, but only on the second playthrough, when I already know the story. Side missions too.

Well, I didn't mean it should be mandatory. Plus I found the Mohawk acting to be pretty damn wooden.

Though I always have subtitles on, even when it's in English.

Oh I gotcha. Now that you bring it up, it is kinda odd that modern games don't have switchable audio tracks. You'd think American releases would at least have English and Spanish audio tracks, and English and Spanish subtitles.

 

[Thundercrack85]

I assume it's a legal issue. Like the voice actor unions or something. Or just for the ease of distribution.

Only games off the top of my head are Sonic Adventure and the rerelease of Tales of Symphonia. But those were Japanese games.

If I remember correctly from the Game Informer article I read your co op is still the same guy as your single player. You always play as Arno and everyone else looks different but in their game they look like Arno too. I'm fairly certain the multiplayer is supposed to be seamless so if your in single player there will be markers that take you into co op mode.

 

[Marvolo]

I'm loving the amount of customization in this game. I always deck my assassin out in reds so if it gives me a few more shades of reds and some contrasting colors to use on various bits of equipment and clothing I'm gonna be a happy camper.

Yeah, it is your Arno you play co-op with.

 

[Thundercrack85]

Guess who got Unity.

And Black Flag... apparently.

 

[Quasimod0]

Yeah, it is your Arno you play co-op with.

But other players won't be able to see all your customized clothing will they?

You got it early!?

 

[Thundercrack85]

I got the download code with the bundle, I had to exchange my creaky Sunset Overdrive Bundle for a slightly less creaky Assassin's Creed bundle.

 

[Benstamania]

Check it if it works.. I heard you can download Unity but it's still coded to where you c any play it til Tuesday. More or less just like Halo for digital buyers.

 

[Marvolo]

Yeah most likely you can't play it, but but at least you've got it and don't have to go out to the store and get it on the 11th.

I keep telling myself I can wait till Black Friday, but that's looking less and less likely with each passing day. Far Cry 4 isn't out the 18th and I'm really wanting something new to play. So Ill probably be picking this up next week. I'll just wait til BF to pick up AC Rogue and maybe Alien Isolation.

After that I should be set until Witcher 3 comes out.
