While THQ Nordic’s remake teaser of the first Gothic is not up to what its fans were expecting, we can easily notice the visual improvements that this mod brings to the table. Gothic Remake uses Unreal Engine 4. Now while Epic’s engine has native support for Ray Tracing, THQ Nordic did not use these effects. Thankfully, PC gamers can emulate some of them via the Reshade Ray Tracing mod.

In the following video, you can easily notice the light bounce that the Reshade Ray Tracing mod introduces. You can also notice the improved Global Illumination and Ambient Occlusion effects.

Similarly to Gothic Remake, there are also noticeable changes in Assassin’s Creed Black Flag. Black Flag is basically a previous-gen title, and its lighting system looks really dated. Thankfully, the Reshade Ray Tracing mod can overhaul it. As such, PC gamers can enjoy a “remastered” version of it for free.

Now as we’ve already said, this Ray Tracing mod comes with a big performance hit. Not only that, but this mod is still in a beta stage. As such, a lot of players won’t be able to enjoy these games at playable framerates. Still, it gives us something to look forward, especially when NVIDIA’s next-gen GPUs come out. After all, we’re talking about free graphical/visual improvements.

Enjoy the videos and stay tuned for more!

One of the major components to Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag is the multiplayer. While some of these multiplayer elements can be performed online with friends (your Wolfpack), several of them are what AC4 calls 'Adversarial.' While you can still play these modes with your Wolfpack, they can also be played with online strangers. These are the free-for-all deathmatch and assassination games that fans of the previous incarnations know and love.

Here is quick run down of the different Adversarial Game Modes in Assassin's Creed 4:

Manhunt

One of the more common varieties of multi-player you can be right now, Manhunt is your standard hunter and prey game. Split into two rounds, you play as either the hunter or the target. As the hunter, it's your job to find and assassinate your target without them catching onto you. As prey, it's your job to pay attention to the whispers, and to find yourself a way out of dodge when the hunter comes to visit, all while avoiding drawing unwanted attention. A team mode, you can stick with your team for extra points.

Artifact Assault

The easiest way to describe Artifact Assault is to call it Assassin's Creed 4's Capture the Flag. Obtain artifacts from the opposing teams area and make it back to your area, all while stopping them from doing the same thing. However, while in enemy territory, you can't kill and must rely instead on stealth and stuns.

Domination

Domination is all about making sure your team holds the most territory at the end of the game. You must attack, capture and defend neutral territories in an attempt to raise your gauge. Winning involves either having the highest filled gauge, or making sure the other team has the lowest.

Deathmatch

In other modes, you will encounter several 'look a likes' to your desired targets. Not so in Deathmatch mode. The map is smaller, and you are supplied with a head shot of your intended victim. Find him and kill him, before your pursuers kill you, all within a limited time span. To level the playing field, the compass that is often in other multiplayer modes, is turned off.

Wanted

A variation on Deathmatch that fans of the series will remember, Wanted allows gives you a larger map, a compass, and turned on look-a-likes. This intensifies and spreads out the play.

Assassinate

If you're looking for a tougher, dirtier type of play, then the Assassinate mode is for you. There are no given targets, and instead you have to watch the cues given by other characters to figure out which ones are the NPC's and which ones are the player characters. Nab your target before he sees you, and you can score big.
