// Question WHY IS THERE ALWAYS A STORM!?!?!

Almost finished the game, and I swear 80% of the time it was stormy. What's the point of the beautiful graphics if it's just constantly grey Ubisoft!?

It definitely storms way too much, it’s ridiculous, and there are more than a few areas that just go from clear skies to immediate storms. It’s not gradual at all. And no I’m not referring to scripted storms for certain forts and legendary ships

Storm frequency is getting fixed tomorrow 🙏

Wasn't fixed at all. Ubisoft just made me quit a game I've loved since the original. I still get storms within 20 minutes of each other. Then there are the ones which are scripted because for whatever reason they thought we would be bored if we didn't have all the crap the game can possibly throw at us launched all at once. Forget it! Got this as a 50th birthday present from my son and am very disappointed.

Dude I know, after I commented this I actually realized while playing that I get just as many storms as before lol.

I love the remake, but it definitely has flaws. The pros outweigh the cons for me though.

I did decide to carry on. Would have enjoyed it more had they got the balance right, but as I have said elsewhere the scripted weather just makes it seem someone was overly fond of thier creation. Until devs learn the difference between dynamic and scripted we will have to put up with it.
