Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced shows new sinking‑ship detail and faces patch‑related performance problems
The remastered version of Assassin's Creed Black Flag, titled Black Flag Resynced, adds a visual effect that lets players watch sunken ships slowly disappear after diving beneath the waves, a detail praised by the community on Reddit.
A recent Title Update 1.0.5 intended to reduce stutter instead introduced new technical issues for PC players. More than 150 Steam comments cite crashes, black screens, and severe frame‑rate drops – one user reported "before the patch the game ran at 60 fps in 1080p, after only 24 fps". Others describe constant SSD load at 100 %, long loading pauses, missing NPC models, and mission‑blocking bugs that prevent progress.
The combined feedback highlights both the enhanced immersion of the remake and the unintended drawbacks of the latest patch.
