Like many games released in the late PS3 and Xbox 360 era, Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag had an array of online features that are now either half-broken or completely dead. Thankfully, Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced is doing what every modern remaster for a game from this era should do by cutting off the online requirements from those features – but unfortunately, it's also adding Assassin's Creed Shadows-style online nonsense of its own.
We've already known that Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced would cut the original game's multiplayer, but that's not the only part of the game that was locked to an online connection. Kenway's Fleet would allow you to dispatch ships into battles and missions that play out in real time even while you're not in-game. This feature was also integrated with a mobile app that you could check to see your fleet's progress while you're away from your console.
