Windows in AC4 messed up?
When you're inside a building and looking out a window they're either pure white or black. EVEN IN CUTSCENES!

For example, when Edward is talking to his wife about him on a ship with dubloons spilling out of his pocket, he looks out a window and instead of seeing a port with ships, it's just pure black.

There's no way it should actually be like that right?... I have the game on almost max settings so it can't be because of that...

What are your hardware system specs & OS?
Especially GPU and Driver version.

I would make sure drivers are up to date, as that can easily cause visual issues, or video related problems.

335 Drivers do not play along very well with AC4.
I would suggest either 334 WHQL or 337 BETA.

Do not let GeForce Experience or NVIDIA Tray Updater auto download newer drivers, just set it to notify u about them instead. Newest isn't always the best one.

OP, it's supposed to be that way.

I have had no trouble playing AC4 with 335.23 or Geforce Experience. Maybe the driver just doesn't play well with that specific GPU instead of the game.

Ok good to know, yea could just be issues with certain GPUs.
We tested 335 WHQL when it released and were using AC4 as one of the testing games. It had issues in regards to Ambient Occlusion and PhysX, but again this was when testing NVIDIA 400 and 500 series GPUs. These issues were not there on these systems/GPUs when using 334 WHQL and they went away once we were able to test 337 BETA. So again, might just not affect 600/700 GPUs.
