Glitch still works guys. I just did it today to check. Key is to go the speed before traveling speed and begin holding the button to release the wheel at 570 distance. Glitch only works on 2 of the legendary ships. Ships: -El Impoluto & HMS Prince. Your welcome.
The issue is have is when I try to jump on the ship I either fall in the ocean or the ship just pushes me like I jump on the deck and it just throws me off
Honestly, it’s funny to me how in the level where he stole the jackdaw, he didn’t steal the 30 mf man o wars with no guards on it, he stole the tiniest worst ship
Is it bad that I still play this game in 2018 I used to play it years ago in about 2013 so I decided to buy it for my ps4 and dude, I love it, I love playing old games I love the nostalgia
I mean...this is the kind of stuff I hoped the game to be not just shooting cannons left and right But actually being able to use your assassin skills to avoid naval combat
The Jackdaw was already so overpowered and ship battles were so easy, you wanted something so powerful to the point that fights the would be pointless?
How the hell did you do that I tried to do that and it glitched me into the bottom of the ship with no way out and every other time I tried to jump on it would see me and move away
He didnt even had a good start you can just hang on the side killing everyone standing on the side of the ship then you can stealth kill 1 more Guy and then there are only something like 5 people left
Not true actually. I defeated the HMS Prince with this way too. I even have a video of that lol, but I think if you just wait long enough for her to circle around your ship then you can jump on with the ropes if you're lucky.
I just tried it and the legendary ship pulls out of it’s warpath and away from you once Edward is at the front mast of the Jackdaw. Looks like this glitch has been fixed.
i defeated all legendary ships with the level 45 jackdaw at its max! but the legendary at the top with the ramming power really took the shit out of me
Glitch works as of now, except you cant "glitch" onto the ship, but instead i timed it right and landed in a weird spot. Then the ship literally stopped moving so i climbed really high on my ship and swung onto it and i got it. Your welcome
It doesnt work anymore in the switch version The El Impoluto isnt registered as a jumpable object. So you still can get off the steering wheel before the animation comes but you cant jump on the ship
what you do is you put a marker on it and when it reaches near 560m release the wheel quickly then the cutscene will play you have to time it well and it might take awhile :D
Finally did it after 5 hours, but then I accidentally jumped off the top of the ship and died because the movement in this game sucks. I want to go one direction and Edward is like "naaaaaa we dyin' now mate."
They should have made the boarding battles more engaging by having the ability to throw grappling hooks if you get close enough. This allows you and your crew to board and engage the enemy ship crew who should be more proactive and aggressive as they are aware of the player's boarding attempt. Also the enemy deck crews should get reinforcements coming from the lower decks to fight the player and how many reinforcements you have to fight depend on the size of the enemy ships with larger vessels having more crew. Also for legendary ships they should have stronger crews than of normal vessels having better combat skill capable of countering some of the player's combat moves and having more health
i got a very wierd glitch, when i stopped exactly at 561m the cutscene played and then the ship did not ram me! ( This is the 2 man 'o' war's at the east side of the map ) both the ships became inactive. I defeated both the ships and got 20000R after that which ever ship i came across was a legendary ship!!! i got 3 man 'o' war's, 1 arca del maestro and 1 HMS fearless totally i made 60000R. anyways after you exit the game the glitch is no more but i had 60000R
yes, happened with me as well, after the cutscene, just don't move forward, they get inactive and you can kill them. they even keep on spawning again and again and money stays.
I can't do this since I can't get get loose of that wheel while in battle mode. If I get lose of the grip before that, the ship wont attack me at all...
I thought heavy shot was automatic if youre close enough to enemy ship. I was having trouble with Impoluto and la dama negra and now knowing it was mild hard to defeat those ships. I couldve defeated ships so easily its late now. also the ramming added ability is kinda useless giving it after strongest ships are gone.
I wish you could steal the el impluto because you get on the ship then kill everyone and then the wheel is free to get get your crew members on there and you'll be the King of the West Indies but no he sticks with the jackdaw
