    1. Can you please let us know what is the name of that sword?

        They are either Captain’s Drake’s swords or the Matched Golden Swords (or something like that) which are dlc only for ps3 (I think)

      They are on of the little islands, its name is florida and i believe it was up on the top. However, THEY SUCK! Just get the best buyable swords, they are much better than the matched golden swords.

    It appears that a unique sword if you hover over the sword sets menu at a general store. Anyway to unlock that sword?

    I was planning to buy this in the PSN store for PS4 but if these are all the weapons then f*** it. It’s nothing but swords and pistols. Laaaaaaame.

    1. There are more weapons actually. You can use blowpipe that comes with sleep darts and berserk darts, there is rope dart as well, you can throw knife toward enemies. Let’s not forget your ship’s weapons broadside cannons, mortars, swivel guns, fire barrels and etc.

      You dumb ass, what else would be in the 1700’s?

        Uhh, musquets, axes, daggers, spears, etc. I too am disappointed by the selection of weapons.

    That had to me too but the problem was I did not have the diving bell, which is required for a couple of the contracts.

    The Pistol swords wont unlock for me…. IT says I have 100% on Assassin Contracts but wont unlock it. Also one of my islands says that i only did 1/2 but doesnt have an assassin contract logo/area/w.e.

    1. Now that is strange, 100% assassin contracts and 1 contract is not done. I had situation with one contract not showing up in one island as well. It was Andreas Island. But later on when I revisited it, it was there. Check out our assassination contracts guide maybe there is some other contract that you might have missed.

      Because you have missed one naval contract. I too have faced the same problem, Note only after completing a certain job will unlock the next one.

      Are you connected to xbox live when you play? If not they released a day 1 patch that fixed tons of issues that are similar to the one you’re experiencing. Hope this helps you.

      Two of the 30 assassin contracts won’t show until you have the diving bell. Those contracts are underwater, which is why they’re not offered to you until you have the bell.
