Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag Guide Multiplayer
Game Lab
The Game Lab is a brand new tool that enables you to create unique game modes. The principle is simple: using existing game modes as a basis, you can tweak over 200 parameters (Abilities, Score Bonuses, session time, and so forth) to engineer your own set of rules and objectives.
After playing a game mode from the Game Lab that you enjoyed, you can save it from the Results page to easily access it again at a later date. You can also set up to three favorite Game Lab configurations, which other players can view while checking your profile.
Just to give you an idea of how you can use the Game Lab feature to create fun challenges, here are a few examples of interesting custom Game Modes.
