It's his grandfather.

I see now.  i guess I should have read it first.  I saw the name in the URL.  So Connor will more than likely be in the game if he isn't dead.

I doubt he was even born at this point. Maybe we see his father.

Damn, I am blanking out right now.  So it's haytham's father.  I wonder what makes Haytham ***SPOILERS*** turn into a templar if his father was an assassin.

Nope, means nothing. We know Beyond will launch on October 8th, so the PS4 should be after that

Along with Watch Dogs, it will mean that they release the game when the PS4 is launched, but earlier on other platforms. This will mean I have a very difficult decision to make if the PS4 is delayed to Spring in the UK.

It also demonstates that the PS4 does not represent the same jump as the PS3 though, we didn't get the same number of cross generational games last time

Here is what we have

Edward Kenway - Assassin - AC IV
Haytham Kenway - Templar - AC III
Connor Kenway - Assassin - AC III

I think there is already some lore about why Haytham become a templar

I hope we get more of Haytham. Not only did he have a great hat, but also a great English accent, I loved him!

Isn't anyone worried about this after AC3?

But anyways it looks interesting so I'll get it day one...i just really hope they don't mess it up like they did with AC3.

Playing the Haytham story bit was one of the highlights of AC3 for me....i really enjoyed those missions they were tight and focused. Haytham as a character was also really interesting.

Going from Haytham to Connor was....well underwhelming and dissapointing. Not only did the game go south from there on but the gameplay and missions did as well. Its as if the game was developed by 3 or 4 different teams.

I didn't like the way that I knew that I was going to change character, so didn't really bother with exploration or side missions in case that progress didn't carry over. I also felt that it was over linear, but hey, I enjoyed the game as a whole

Diving and fucking ? Sounds like solid improvements.

Remove the bugs and I will play and enjoy it. If not it will be the same frustrating and underwhelming game as AC3. (obviously there are more shortcomings in AC3 to address.)
