Assassin's Creed IV Release Date Leaked, Coming To Next-Gen Consoles

I might pick this up for the ps3. But I was extremely dissapointed with the previous release. Everything from Connor's shitty "I Do What I Want Attitude," to the other terrible dialogue and glitchy gameplay, ruined it for me. I understand this one has a new lead character which is something I am glad to see. I also enjoyed the Naval missions in AC3 and since this one is pirate themed, it may have that something new that I crave from the franchise. But I honestly am not getting my hopes up.

As for the purchasing this on the next gen harware, that will not be happening for sometime. I will be one of the many (or few) who does not purchase the new hardware anytime close to their release dates. I have been through this before and know that the initial releases can be very buggy and problematic. But only time will tell.

Sweet, gonna pick this up for my 360. PS3 may be getting more missions but i have all the rest on my 360. Seems weird though 4 coming a year after 3, with how long 3 took after 2.

I think really they need to put the series "on hold" and Ubi Soft really take it back to the drawing board. I have played the games, and they are always apt to introduce new mechanics and play but ignore the long standing issues with the series as a whole. When 3 came out, I was actually happy the streamlined and simplified the controls. The controls they did for a third person action game, were needlessly complicated, but in 3 they made it simpler and more functional. But they still have never fixed the glitches, and lousy AI. I know its hard to make a open world game and it function well, but I think with a little more polish, the glitches could be less frequent, and the AI could be smarter. That's just my thoughts on the series. Its a great series, but just has problems that seem to go ignored.
