Assassins Creed IV: 20 Minutes of 1080p Gameplay

Youtube user 'RajmanGamingHD' has uploaded more than 20 minutes of 1080p multiplayer gameplay today and he said he has footage of more than 4 hours of it, which is going to be uploaded soon.

[Goro]

This guy got Killzone Mercenary a few weeks early too.

[zeee]

I don't know about you guys but I am done with Assassins Creed games. I think we should get a break somewhere in between launch of each iteration. This is exactly why I don't buy Call of Duty, God of War, Assassins Creed etc

I have pre-ordered BF4 and somehow I feel as if I am pushing myself with it especially after playing beta. Would have prefered to see BFBC3 instead.

Killzone however looks different and exciting :)

[Zeniix]

If you don't want it then don't get it, I'm personally excited for AC4

[0ut1awed]

I get exactly where you are coming from and agree. They are milking these titles.

I myself will buy BF4, some what ashamedly. I highly hope the next installment is in fact BC3 as it as already been hinted by DICE.

Although Battlefront should hold me over in the meantime. :)

[Tontus]

Hardly fair to lump God of War with Assassin's Creed & Call of Duty.

Last generation:

2005 - God of War
2007 - God of War II

This generation:

2010 - God of War III
2013 - God of War: Ascension

Portable side stories by a different developer:

2008 - God of War: Chains of Olympus
2010 - God of War: Ghost of Sparta.

Vs

This generation:

2007 - Assassin's Creed
2009 - Assassin's Creed II
2010 - Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood
2011 - Assassin's Creed: Revelations
2012 - Assassin's Creed III
2013 - Assassin's Creed IV

or

This generation:

2005 - Call of Duty 2
2006 - Call of Duty 3
2007 - Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
2008 - Call of Duty: World at War
2009 - Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
2010 - Call of Duty: Black Ops
2011 - Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
2012 - Call of Duty: Black Ops 2
2013 - Call of Duty: Ghosts

So yeah, if you don't buy God of War then I assume you don't buy Uncharted, Resistance, Ratchet & Clank either? Or Gears of War, Halo, Forza if you have a 360 too. All have had 3+ games this generation vs 2 for GoW.

Hell, even Killzone had 2 on console and 2 on handhelds with another game coming this year that looks the same but with a different colour palette.

I like the new one. The naval aspect of it. It was one of the highlights in AC3 but had not really a focus there. Looking forward to more sea battles.

[colonel179]

The correct way to do a franchise is to have 2 to 3 games maximum per generation. I don't get this yearly nonsense. I used to complain about how Sports game had to be yearly releases instead of having patches until the FULL, NEW and UPDATED (graphics, AI, tech, etc) release 2 or 3 years later.

So now, we have non-sport games releasing yearly which mean that the quality just gets lower each time, and if it doesn't, then people start getting tired of it.

With AC for example, I would have preferred if AC 4, was actually the THIRD game (its the sixth), but have it a HUGE game, like GTA, with tons of things to do, a vast world full of people, great amount of enemies, etc.

[king_george]

@zeee
Why did you put god of war in there? Thats definitely not milked at all but i agree with assassins creed and call of duty. But god of war needs to make a comeback for sure because ascension wasnt well recieved

[gaffyh]

This doesn't look that great by the texture definition, though it is multiplayer so not a true sense of the game. They need to start doing these games every other year, because every year is just too much. I've barely got over AC3, which I found truly boring. I've never complained about cutscenes before (MGS fan here), but there were WAAAY too many in AC3, and when you skipped one, you'd still have to skip another one straight after.

Not too excited by AC4, but I will give it a chance if they go back to how it was with Ezio.

[TrollCraftTales]

Wait, so you are not getting AC4 because they release too many of them? That isn't really a reason, now with COD I don't buy it because it is the exact same thing over and over again, it just so happens they release one every year, but AC is different every time. The only time it was really the same thing over and over again was AC2-Brotherhood-Revelations... I didn't like AC3 as much but I have high hopes for AC4...

[Muerte2494]

Just a side note. Remember all that talk about how HDCP was going to hinder people using their capture cards. Ps4 is still a month away yet we already have direct feed gameplay using the El Gato Capture card.

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

his description is as follows:
"Character customization from the PS4 version of Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag. Direct feed capture from the Playstation 4 using the Elgato Game Capture HD.
"

[KwietStorm_BLM]

AC every year got me bored of it too, and I didn't even get every game, but now I feel forced to get IV since Watch Dogs got delayed. Fcuk.

[mikeslemonade]

I'm here to play next gen, not up-res current gen games.

Assasins Creed and Call of Duty can go shove it and kick rocks.

[Magicite]

I am enjoying every next AC game more than previous, all the features and stories, gameplay improvements, it all makes every next game even more amazing. Just my thoughts.

[gaffyh]

@troll - No, it's more that the new ones don't introduce much new features, and the fact that I feel like these games could be significantly better if more time was spent on developing and testing them.

[BallsEye]

multiplayer ps4 gameplay doesn't look too hot...

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

what happened there??? Looks like ps2 in 1080p.

[GarrusVakarian]

20 minutes of character creation more like.

Got my hopes up when i read the title.

[o2a1]

2:34 minute video of character customisation and another 1:00 minute of character customisation.. man people judge quick

[Boody-Bandit]

You should've posted the multiplayer gameplay video first instead of the player customization video. I just went to the site and watched the other videos. They are sweet. Is it too late to change or add them to this article?

Too many games coming out so close together. It's a shame the next gen consoles aren't already here. Oh well I guess I will just have to lock myself in my gaming room for a few months and have at them. I hope the wifey understands. If not I will have even more time to game. ;)

[Ezz2013]

yeah

also i'm not seeing any next gen gfx here at all BTW

[GarrusVakarian]

Yeah i agree, while i must say the SP does look very nice (still don't think it looks next gen, maybe current gen.5) the MP portion of this game looks straight up current gen.

[Caleb_H]

Yeah, I was hoping for some free roam, not mp.

[MadSientist89]

looks like ASS CREED

[Bolts]

What 20 minutes of gameplay. This is only 2 minutes of character customization. Who approved this BS?

[a08andan]

Click the link :) There are two more videos :)

[badboy776]

Raider Nation!!!!!!!!!

[HeavenlySnipes]

You can watch them in 1440p

:O

[rajman]

Glad you guys are enjoying my high quality PS4 videos =) I'll be uploading single player soon

[gusgusjr]

as in today?

[sycnation]

with some of that ps4 trophy awesomeness *ding*?

I reay liked that vid u put up about the ps4's trophy sound and layout
thnx raj

[gusgusjr]

Added this to my PS4 launch list. Was going to wait until my new pc next year but I might double dip on this.

[boneso82]

Pretty sure this is PS3 gameplay, unless the videos are just really poor quality which now seems more likely actually, ignored I'm rambling, can't wait for this on PS4 but mainly for single players, never liked AC multiplayer

[jlo]

1080p gameplay was really impressive...... in 2006

[ZBlacktt]

So was PC gaming back then. Back then...

[MAULxx]

Is the Single Player running in 1080p on PS4?
From what I've heard it is, at 30fps.
Is this correct?

[thechosenone]

Yup...SP is running at 1080p 30fps and multiplayer 1080p 60fps.

[Campy da Camper]

Honest question here....how is it easier for them to get 60fps in MP with tons of people all playing in one game than a SP level with one person and AI?

[thechosenone]

MP levels are a lot smaller compared to SP.

[Gamer-40]

This is next-gen visuals? C'mon..it is a joke.

[ZBlacktt]

A joke would be gamers or people making comments like this without ever seeing or playing the game in person themselves. Yet just going off a Youtube video. Common sense would tell me it's not the same at all. Or, why are we reading so much from others saying " stunning ", "gorgeous", "breath taking", "most anticipated game".

[GarrusVakarian]

But if every other gameplay video we watch shows games which we would judge as "next gen", it would make sense to make the same assumption about AC4 from youtube videos too right?

For instance, from the youtube gameplay ive watched from Killzone Shadow Fall or RYSE it LOOKS next gen to me, when i watch AC4 gameplay on youtube, i see a game that looks gorgeous but doesnt strike me as next gen the same way the other games did on a YOUTUBE video. It looks like AC3 but sharper.

[ZBlacktt]

Lukas, I get it, you want to follow me around and troll. Yet all you are is a Google YouTube searcher trying to fit in. Good luck with that. Go play GTA5. I've noticed you've stopped, lol. :D

[tigertron]

It looks decent, but remember this is a cross gen title.

A game made only for next-gen consoles/PC in mind will look far better.

[Bonerboy]

man, I dont even need to play this game now...I've seen it all through previews.

[xKugo]

Show PC please...
Really don't want to get this game for PS4, but no PC footage has me concerned.

[EastBayPunk]

Ubisoft has really screwed up all of their PC ports over the past few years.. I'd be wary

[Red_Devilz]

Lame. Please change the misleading title or write a disclaimer.

[PFFT]

We need single player game play.

[Campy da Camper]

Not gonna lie...I'm buying this game strictly for the naval battles and hunting whales.

[TheOneEyedHound]

I went awhole week without eating when Uncharted Drakes Fortune came out, I had just got my self a new apartment and had 78$ for for food that was it, I chose Uncharted and a pack of cigarettes. Lets just say when this game released I'll be eating at a 5 star restaurant.

[urwifeminder]

Just go the first two on pc very cheap by the time I finish them this will be $5.

[CyrusLemont]

Not bad haha

[JCENAdaBest]

The see battles were fun, yes but what kind of an assassin spends his time as a captain of a ship shooting cannon balls at the enemy? It's not what an assassin does and it is part of the reason why Assassins Creed has lost its identity. An assassin would be in the shadows, slick, silent and deadly. Now in Assassins creed your more of a soldier with some cool abilities.

[nan0]

I'm not getting this. Wanna know why? I see the ad on TV with "started from the bottom now we're here". Assassins Creed as philosophic, deep, meaningful, unique, mysterious in it's ways is now DEAD. It's basically glorification of thug life and I NEVER want to hear rap and AC together. I like rap, and I like AC, but you don't mix fruit punch with eggs and try to serve it to me. Just doesn't work.

Basically, AC is just the step sister whore to Modern Warfare. Ubisoft, you're doing it wrong. phuckers

[GiantEnemyCrab]

Yes, when I heard that STUPID song I was thinking WTF. The game has lost its identity long ago. I would fire the marketing people because rap and AC go together like water and oil.
