PlayStation Blog caught with Ubisoft Associate Producer for Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, Sylvain Trottier to discuss the background on the next generation open world title. In the video, he opens up with speaking on realistic oceans based from the sea engine to create in their words the most realistic virtual ocean ever.
The weather system is showcased next for unique atmosphere of the Caribbean with every rain drop in the game having a dynamic ripple for reflective systems. The most impressive breakthrough we’ve seen in the clip thanks to the AnvilNext engine is the lighting.
