They need to take a break from the franchise and come up with some fresh ideas.

Re: Assassin's Creed 4 (2014)
It doesn't seem like it. They're basically doing another "Ezio Trilogy" but with an ancestor of the AC3 characters rather than the same characters from AC3. The question is if the next expansion pack - err - pseudo sequel will feature the same character from AC:BF or yet another ancestor (or perhaps a direct descendant) of Connor instead.
I guess the game after this one will be called Assassin's Creed: Raid.

Part of me doesn't want to get excited about this and get fooled yet again but I'd be all for more naval adventures and less "what every other AC game has been to date".

Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag Confirmed
Ubisoft has confirmed that the next entry in the Assassin’s Creed series will be called Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag. The news comes in the form of the game’s first official art, which you can check out below:
Today’s announcement confirms the title initially revealed by leaked marketing material this week and also expands upon Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot’s comments earlier this month that the newest Assassin’s Creed game features a new hero and time period.
While no concrete details are given in the art, it’s immediately clear that the game will involve pirates, just as rumors suggested a few weeks ago.

I like the overall look of the new Assassin but they need to ditch the hood. I know it's "iconic" but it made little sense in ACIII and makes even less sense in a high seas setting.
My bad. I was under the impression it was being called "Assassin's Creed: Black Flag" sans the IV. In that case, it's definitely surprising to see a numbered title with a subtitle. Also surprising to see a game in this series take on an earlier Assassin than the one from a previous entry.

If that proves true, hopefully they can actually weave an interesting tale regarding how Haytham Kenway, son of an Assassin, ended up a Templar.
That and I hope they bring back the conspiracy theories from ACII and ACB.
