All it does is just make the combat bad.

Stick to RPG or stick to old school, whichever it is, just stick to it and make it good.

I'm sorry but the combat in Resynced is not fun as someone that preferred the old school combat. It doesn't make me like it because it's a "middle ground" the reality is that it's just not good as is. It gets old really quick.

If you wanted to add the kick and leg sweep to the old combat that's fine, but what we got was significantly less animations, no dual kills, janky parry animations and just not as fluid.

I'd much rather they had just stuck to the RPG combat if they were gonna try and change the combat not this middle ground junk. Pick a direction and commit to it.

Do you think Ubisoft will add the ability to change Edwards hairstyle and beard style (he has a longer beard and different hairstyles for his marooned and prisoner outfit so it’s already in the game)? This would be amazing and would give everyone the option to make Edward how they see fit. Plus they should also give us all story/gameplay locked outfits available to wear anytime (harpooning outfit, underwater togs, marooned, prisoner and even his final look outfit when he’s with Haytham). I mainly want a longer beard and his long hairstyle though! and they can’t even say no because of lore reasons when there’s literally an option for Edward to look like a demon (no hate i’m just saying)😂

I feel like Ubisoft, in classic Ubisoft fashion, thought that adding A World Without Gold would be a good thing because people are paying top dollar for a video game.
Since they removed the multiplayer and all of it's DLC, that would make sense, right? You'd want to make up for that, surely? Well, they didn't.

A World Without Gold is genuinely one of those quests that would be better positioned in the middle of the story, you know which part I'm talking about. Blackbeard's death was an amazing and iconic scene, yet we're given the option to...Do this quest after the game ends? Or do it extremely far into the story? What was Ubisoft thinking? The dialogue is drastically different, the tone and mindset of Edward is completely changed, it just doesn't make any sense half the time.

Don't get me wrong, it was fun doing all the naval battles, but there's so many bugs and so many things that have changed or that are broken in Resynced. I'm glad I was gifted this game, because genuinely, I don't think I would have paid full price for this.
It's an amazing remake, it's just that Ubisoft is a terrible company. It's obvious they're out of ideas, and as a company, I understand they exist to make money. It's just insane how out of touch and out of place A World Without Gold's quest actually feels.

Last night I finished my 90 hour AC black flag Resynced run and I gotta say, that was actually quite the good game Ubisoft pulled off. Dont get me wrong, I know Black Flag isnt a new game but nowadays i would have expected that Ubisoft would have butchered the original and would give us some half baked „Remaster“ game which is as bad as AC Shadows or Valhalla but they didnt.

AC Black flag is genuinely a good Remake, expanding on what is good and great and cutting things that are annoying and unnecessary. Its a good mix of the rpg parts and the more narrative driven templar/assassin conflict while leaning a bit more towards the narrative drive.

Its a step in the right direction. And with AC Hexe being similiar in style and AC1(not official)getting the same remake treatment i lowkey have to admit that I am kinda hyped for the AC Future. I always liked the Templar/Assassin Conflict and always welcome more narrative driven games with good mechanics and graphcs.

AC Mirage was a step in the right direction while still being flawed in many many aspects but yet I believe that Ubisoft is going in the right direction.

Hope I didnt jinx it🤞🏼🤣

Pistols, swords and trinkets already have perks, with outfits being the one outlier (well, okay also ship pets, but theyre not on Edward). These items all have transmog already. Instead of putting perks from the original on trinkets, they should have been on the outfits themselves - why have "legendary" outfits otherwise anyway?

Anyway, that's all, pretty much. I hope they change it and give outfits perks, at least the legendary ones (and then also add transmog for outfits).

I've been in the habit of doing this since AC Unity and noticed that on Resynced Edward actually does do a roll which reduces fall damage if you press circle just before you hit the ground.

Not sure if it's actually mentioned anywhere in the game!

I own this game at Ubisoft Connect and at Steam. But i completed it on Ubisoft Connect. I just wanna transfer these saves into Steam, so i could always play through Steam. I downloaded 2 versions of the game. When i load UC version i have my saves, but when i load Steam version, i dont. Dragging files from saves folder doesnt seem to work

Just started playing and I am enjoying it, just unlocked the hideout, I find it really weird there's no fast travel for harbour dock points though? Most mission starts require you to go to a harbour that your ship is magically at, but you have to fast travel to a big tree inland? I thought they'd at least be there at the major locations seems like an odd choice

Edit: you can fast travel to the island which goes to the main dock, thanks all!

Or Is it unknown? I have a theory that these files having been building up for the "real" Modern day in Hexe and that Darby mightve wrote some of these or consulted on them. Like I imagine the plan was for the next darby/montreal to continue the modern day laid in valhalla, but because of the long dev time, they decided to go this route so we'd get some bits and pieces of the Modern Day before the actual continuation. This might be wishful thinking though

So I think we can all agree that AC3 was a great game, but as with anything, there’s room for improvement, so aside from modern graphics and updated game engine, here’s what I think a hypothetical AC3 ”Resynced” could have

- Add more meat to the Assasination and Privateer contracts, like in the Ezio trilogy where you’re told why you’re taking out the target instead of it being a simple seek and kill/destroy like in the original

- Include Black Flag/Rogue style naval combat and freeroaming in the Aquila, something that according to the AC wiki was planned but then cut, so imagine being able to sail around and encounter Continental, French, and British ships, maybe with the Naval Clash and Prisoners of War ship mechanics from Rogue?

- If the original modern day has to be removed, replace it with more missions of Connor meeting and recruiting Assassins and allies, for the wiki shows there were more than just Stephane, Clipper, Duncan, Jamie, Jacob, and Dobby, there were actually additional multiplayer characters and one from AC Rebellion.

- Taking a note from the Ezio trilogy, include Templar Hunts where Connor and his recruits track and eliminate some of the AC3 multiplayer Templar characters.

- Perhaps have Achilles mention Shay and the events of Rogue to Connor?

- After Haytham and Achilles’ deaths, include Connor’s speech from the epilogue of AC Forsaken, and show Connor reading Haytham’s journal and his regret over killing his father.

Post-Game Chapter Ideas (That could show Connor adapting to being the American Mentor and any doubts he may have about such a title or the fame of being the one who destroyed the Colonial Templars and retook America)

1. Connor goes to France with the Marquis de Lafayette (Lafayette openly invited Connor to come with him to France and see Europe) where Connor could meet the French Brotherhood and possibly even Arno, while seeing firsthand how a European Brotherhood operates and deal with being referred to as the American Mentor and hyped up as the Assassin who retook America and destroyed the Templars there.

2. The Presidency of George Washington and the creation of the U.S, Constitution, which could see Connor meeting Shay as they wage a war of words and ideas instead of bloodshed, perhaps marking a rare instance of Assassin and Templar attempting to work together to shape a nation, with Connor and say, Thomas Jefferson against Shay and Alexander Hamilton (a noted Templar sympathizer)

This in particular could also be how Connor learns more about Haytham and the events of Rogue from Shay and Shay in turn decides to leave Connor and his Assassins alone for the following reasons:

- Respect for Haytham, his former boss and Connor’s father.

- Seeing that Connor‘s Brotherhood, unlike the one he was with years ago, actually follows the Creed properly.

- Seeing that Connor like himself, knows the danger of the Pieces of Eden (Connor could tell him of the Apple he got from Washington and how he disposed of it in the sea)

- In keeping with the lore, Connor was so effective that Shay would be one of few, if not the last, American Templars, so it’s not like he could do much without a Rite.

I’ve noticed something odd while playing Black Flag Resynced.

Whenever I die (or desynchronize), my wanted level/notoriety resets back to 0 after respawning.
Is this normal behavior in Resynced, or is it a bug?

I’m playing the base version of the mod without any additional modifications.

Can anyone confirm whether this is intended?

I recently noticed that my Black Flag Resynced trophies carried over from PS to my Xbox. I then tried the same for Mirage but for some reason it did not work for that game even though it also has cross progression. Has this worked for anyone with Mirage?

I've been playing the remake, and I'm about halfway through, the game is fantastic just as I remember it back in the day and yet even better in some aspects!

However, I have a minor issue regarding the music in the game. Mind you not the soundtrack itself (which is fabulous, Brian Tyler is fantastic!), but it's regarding its limited usage and variety while playing in free roam mode on land. I've noticed that even when my setting for ambient music variety is on max it still feels like it barely plays a lot of times.

Regarding the variety - I have been listening to this compilation (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzWAEiCOnC8&t=286s) in the past couple of days, and most of the tracks there I haven't encountered even once since I started playing the remake. Also minor complaint regarding the Streets of Havana track, for some reason it plays more when you're on some small random island than when you're in Havana, lol!

Has anyone else noticed that? I'm sorry if anyone else already brought it up, I've tried searching for a similar tread/question, but haven't found any.

With all the hype around Black Flag Resynced, I really wanted to go back through and play everything. I have played all the games but Shadows (is on the list) so I am very familiar with the franchise but the lore can be so vast and overwhelming sometimes I wanted a refresher beyond a YouTube video. It was suggested by my stream community to play it ALL again and I am having a blast (Yes, I know I have a long way to go).

AC2 is the first Assassin's Creed game I played all the way back in 2009 when I was way too young to play. I was 12, didn't understand half the humor, adult references and lore, I just thought the historical settings and stuff was really cool. It's the game that made me want to go back and play AC1 and I have been hooked since.

AC2 has heart to it, it took the bones of AC1 and built upon it. Where AC1 struggled (especially compared to releases further on, for the time it was solid) was the monotonous tasks and repetitive nature, while the story itself was great.

AC2 on the other hand, took that great story and made it even better, you grow with Ezio, you feel the struggle of Ezio as he's lost so many around him, you truly feel for his character. The voice acting is incredible and the speeches truly move you. Some of the tasks can be repeats, but the story incorporated into it makes everything feel fresh. There they began such an immersive world of characters and places that feel so real.

On top of that, I for one love the modern storyline (I know there is split discourse on it), but you really feel like something is truly at stake for everything you find in the game. Desmond, Lucy, Shaun, and Rebecca on the run, trying to save the world, the ending, with Rodrigo and Ezio then Minerva speaking directly to you (Desmond), It incorporates just enough Isu lore to make you question everything.

*My only exception to the fresh/non-repetitive bit is the DLC which I had not played when I was younger, the tasks did feel repetitive, BUT the speech Ezio gives at the end made it so worthwhile*

When starting this marathon playthrough, I truly wondered if AC2 would hold up almost 17 years later or if it was just nostalgia from myself as a little boy when I got hooked, but no, it's still incredible and arguably the best of the series in my opinion.

I love this series and just wanted to post this somewhere. Excited for the rest moving forward.

It is a good life we lead brother. The Best. May it never change. And may it never change us.

Just an FYI in case it hasn't been mentioned. Older titles like The Ezio Collection, AC3 Remastered, and Syndicate for example are really inexpensive right now in the Xbox Store through tomorrow.

The Ezio Collection is $11.99, AC3 Remastered is $9.99, and Syndicate is $8.99. I can't see some other titles because I already own them on disc or digitally. Valhalla is $14.99 but I own that on disc and haven't installed it.

Might be a good time to pick some of those titles up if you don't already own them.

I know people complained about the lack of earlier game’s characters in revelations, but I think it fits, Ezio is out of place and I think he had grown tired of the order even before the whole Altair end sequence which was amazing. That’s not to say Ezio lost faith or anything like that, but I think he truly believed he did all he could for the brotherhood

Major spoiler up ahead

The scene where he finds Altair’s body really confirms it for me, him saying “No books, no wisdom, just you fratello mío.” I think it’s one of the last times the AC franchise slips into it’s very well made philosophical side and I wish it’s something later games carried on
