If it has campaign co-op, not some knockoff mode, this will be the 1st AC i ever purchased. Im a sucker for co-op. I don;t play single player games. Just my opinion.

randomass1713748d ago

AC has had some good games even without coop. I would recommend AC2 in particular and I've heard Black Flag is also really good.

Abriael3749d ago

Not a chance. Completely different time periods.

azzronulation3749d ago

Absolutely, but the multiplayer mode could be completely separate from the single player campaign. It'd be pretty fun though, right?

Abriael3749d ago

The problem is that there are 150 years between the two periods. Paris changed from an era of extreme wealth to almost abject poverty.

They'd need to model two separate cities for the two mode, which isn't going to happen.

3-4-53748d ago

Ab - AC2 had like 4 cities.

SuperBlur3749d ago

An homage to them wouldn't be far fetched tho ;)

-Foxtrot3749d ago

Hopefully not

Can't they just focus on a single player campaign without adding co-op features, I'd rather have features which will enhance the single player.

I mean we already have multiplayer, we don't need co-op AND multiplayer do we.

SuperBlur3749d ago

*sighs* you are such a downer , aren't you one bit intrigued how four player co-op would work in a AC world? Ubisoft has the luxury to focus on all 3 modes at the same time , why not use it..

-Foxtrot3749d ago (Edited 3749d ago )

I'm a downer because I don't want them to add co-op to a single player driven game....really?

They have multiplayer, what would be the point in adding co-op.

Most people think co-op is a simple thing to add, you just flip a switch and press a few buttons here and there and BAM...co-op. But it's not like that at all, it takes a lot of time and work to add it and in my opinion I would like them to use that time instead on adding single player features to enhance the single player for us. If they adding co-op in AC4 Black Flag then I don't think the naval combat would of been as refined as it was since AC3 for example.

So no I'm not intrigued, if they want a co-op game then they should make a game with co-op built up around it. No point tacking it in somewhere where it doesn't really belong.

Meep3749d ago

yea I agree with NoMercyOnlyRage. AC got started getting monotonous after the 2nd game. Let the team try out new things.
"They have multiplayer, what would be the point in adding co-op." That's why I hope the flesh it out and maybe make missions and modes that center around co-op. Hopefully it's not like Drop-in/out co-op like Borderlands which is really uninspired.

DarkBlood3748d ago

Its a yearly franchise theres no harm in trying something out like the previous titles had that dont make it to the next

SpadeX3748d ago

Uncharted 2 & 3 had co-op AND single-player, and they're two amazing games.

TitanUp3748d ago

im fine with co op as long as it doesnt detract from the main game.

randomass1713748d ago

Coop is generally more fun to me than single player if the experience supports it. Friends make games more fun IMO.

gigoran3749d ago

Maybe the writer should have done some research before posting something like this. The time periods don't match at all. He saw "French" and "multiplayer" and thought about the only thing he knows about French history. Shame it's not even historical fact. But still, the story was set in a period of time and that isn't what is being portrayed in the game.

Just for future writings you should do a little more research.

DarkLord10033748d ago

No way.... the musketeers are a totally fictional story. Expect from the main protagonist AC was always about historical accuracy

randomass1713748d ago

I think you mean applying fiction to history, in which case it's not technically accurate at all. George Washington was a pretty bad guy in ACIII from what I remember.

DarkLord10033748d ago

Yeah - i guess. Sorry I'm not a native speaker

I Played Assassin’s Creed Unity Almost 10 Years Later. It’s (Kinda) Spectacular

Do the NPCs still randomly levitate every now and then? Even years later I noticed they hadn't patched that out

andy85135d ago (Edited 135d ago )

Honestly I loved the PS4 ACs. I'd love next gen ports of Black Flag, Unity and Syndicate

Five small but brilliant maps in games

Small video game maps that are packed with things to do are better than huge but empty maps. Here are five small but brilliant maps in games.

Why Assassin’s Creed Unity remains one of the best games in the series

GF365: "Since the first Assassin’s Creed game, there have been entries up until now. There are more than a few titles that are far from an ideal stealth game. Let’s discuss why 2014’s Assassin’s Creed Unity is one of the best games in the series."

Glitchy as hell and flat story, nah this aint it. AC2, brotherhood and 4 were amazing games in every respective

Furesis613d ago

Yeah i would say brotherhood and 4 were the best for me. I have not played the new ones and Unity was my last one. Seems like i made a good choice.

DarXyde613d ago

I gave up after Revelations. Just couldn't bring myself to care anymore and I got burned out of the gameplay.

Definitely agree on 2 and Brotherhood though. Great games.

YourMommySpoils613d ago

A Ubisoft AC game that's not glitchy? That will be the day.

Knightofelemia614d ago

After constant glitches Arno being boring nah I am good I skipped Unity. I will always like the Ezio trilogy, Black Flag, Rogue, Odyssey, Syndicate. I use to love the franchise but now it feels stale and boring. But my list of favorite entries into the franchise will vary from other players favorite entries.

RaidenBlack613d ago

Odyssey is a really well-made RPG game ... but it ain't a proper AC game, even though its part of the lore

ToddlerBrain613d ago

It’s funny because, at launch, it was universally panned for being unplayable. It’s a great game that holds up today. I’m glad they fixed it.

staticall613d ago

The only good things i remember from Unity are pretty graphics and really good descending mechanics (even though it sometimes didn't make much sense, when your character can drop down from like 10 meter height onto a flagpole perfectly).

Game is glitchy to this day, i was playing in it years after the release date (with all the DLCs) and it's still broken. You had to reload missions too often for my taste (characters do not spawn, you fall through the floor, getting stuck in falling/sitting/aiming animation, hidden blade stop working, assassination target running away at the start of the mission). Story was meh, searching for all the treasures wasn't enjoyable at all. Coop was pretty much useless, i've beaten every coop mission in solo. Helix rifts were awful as well.

Not saying i hate this game or anything, but it got too many problems.

Assassin's Creed (i know it's a controversial opinion) and Assassin's Creed 2 are still great to this day.

anast613d ago

Unity was okay. I prefer Syndicate and Origins.
