It is a great expansion for AC4 but the assembling/shopping part of the game has become more of a nuisance. Don't get me wrong I love to tune my NEXT. But you have to buy things before you can see them in your assemble. So in order to compare different weapons you have to buy them then equip them and go back to the shopping to make sure you got the one you really wanted. But then again after about the second variation you get just about all the parts so it's not so difficult any more. The overall game play has improved I think. I love the fact that blades now have a real lock on. I use blades more than rifles now. Battling NEXTS has become a little more difficult. While they seem to be weaker, they are now a lot faster and harder to get that shot that you need so bad. Over all this game is excellent, I just wish they would have changed to assemble portion of the game.
