One thing that genuinely worries me about Black Flag Resynced is the naval combat presentation.

The original Black Flag had cannon impacts that felt insanely heavy and destructive. Every broadside had aggressive smoke, loud explosions, violent screen shake and powerful water impact effects that made naval battles feel brutal and cinematic.

In Resynced, a lot of the new footage looks visually cleaner, but the cannon shots honestly feel softer and less impactful. The explosions also look smaller.

Does anyone else feel like the original game somehow had more punch during ship battles?

The minimap in Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag Resynced has caused a surprisingly divided discussion within the community.

Some players believe removing or heavily changing the classic minimap makes the game feel more immersive and cinematic, encouraging players to naturally explore the world instead of constantly staring at the corner of the screen.

Others feel that the original minimap was an important part of Black Flag’s gameplay. Especially in Naval tailing missions.

Personally, I would like the minimap to return, but at the moment it seems like it will not be coming back. As an alternative, it would at least be a nice addition to have it as an optional feature for players who prefer the classic style. The option to switch between navigation modes.

What do you guys feel like about the animation screen when doing double assassination. Unlike the original it did not have any screen when doing that.
