Reconnect to Ubisoft servers

assassins-creed-4-black-flag

From time to time, my PS3 loses connection to the Ubisoft servers.

Normally, I wouldn't care about it too much, but I really do enjoy using my tablet as a map thanks to the Assassin’s Creed® IV Companion app, which is pretty much useless when the game is no longer online.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a way to reconnect to the servers, except by quitting the game to the main menu and starting Uplay.

How can I reconnect to the Ubisoft servers without quitting my current game session? Is it even possible? Uplay takes ages to load after all…

Best Answer

As soon as you get access to Kenway's Fleet starting with sequence 4, you can manually log in to the Ubisoft servers by accessing your fleet in the Captain's Quarters on the Slackjaw. That's because the fleet minigame is online only.

This is the closest I've found to logging in the Ubisoft servers, without having to quit the game and start Uplay.
