Assassin's Creed Black Flag 101 Trailer Breakdown

Hi guys,
 With the new story trailer being released for Black Flag today, you may have missed the new trailer(if you can call it that) that Assassin's Creed's You Tube channel uploaded. You can check out the full 101 trailer out below, then I will dissect it for you, as it holds some hidden gems for us!
Right let's get into the dissection!    
A look at the Grand Master of the Templars!
The seas will be a treacherous place, and will include scenes like this; tornadoes.
 The fleet of ships Edward will be facing.
 One of the many animals Edward will be able to hunt and use the parts to craft weapons and more!
 A view of what I believe is Nassau, and this is one of the 3 main cites in the game along with Kingston, and Havana.
 Another look at the beautiful world we will be living it.
 A cinematic look at the protagonist of the game; Edward.
 Another cinematic look(get used to them) at one of the pirates who will be able to help you and probably give you missions.
 The one major female pirate of the age, she looks to be the possible love interest in the game. Let's hope Ubisoft don't go down the route of Rockstar and demean all women!
 Not masses to say other than the fact that he makes a rather humorous remark in the trailer, he looks to have a good sense of humour upon his shoulders.
 The most famous pirate possibly of all time Black Beard, he also seems to be a close friend of Edwards, so he may be the character who gives us the naval tutorial!
 Not all people in Black Flag are as nice as those above, Woodes Rogers has been sent by the King to dispatch of pirates! We don't know yet if he has any connections to the Templars.
 A shot of what seems to be the main room on the Jackdaw, doubtlessly there will be many a cut scene with in these walls.
 The first screen you will be met when you want to tinker with your ship.
 Some of the weapon options for the Jackdaw. The Mortar sounds like it will devastate opponents.
 One of my favourite shots, this shows the aesthetic customisation options for the Jackdaw(truly the second protagonist of the game). I can't wait to make the ship my own.
 A look at some of the tropical locations in the world!
 Again I believe this is Nassau just from a much higher vantage point, don't forget all synchronisation points now act as fast travel stations.
 A look at some of the caverns we will be able to discover in the game.
 An in game shot of what it is like to swim the depths of the oceans!
 I chose this shot because of how barbaric I find it, I personally will not be taking part in such activity's despite the rewards for doing so.
 Some of the smaller upgrades you can make to the Jackdaw/hunting.
 A close look at the iconic weapon of the assassins, the hidden blades.
 A look at the weapons you will be able to buy/make in the game, note the second and third options! Yes both Altair's and Ezio's swords will be available to purchase, no Connor though as his time period hasn't occurred yet!
Another look at the long range weapons that will be available to purchase, as above note the damage stats are laid out much clearer than previous instalments!
 
That brings us to and end of my breakdown, I hope you stuck with me to the end, and found something useful within this post. If you could also spair a second to like my Facebook Page, and follow me on Twitter.
 
Thanks for reading,
Ed
