Assassin's Creed 4 Black Flag Walkthrough Part 3 – Present: Day 1 (Part 2)
As mentioned, there are a few things to do in the Present before you start shifting through more of the memories of Edward Kenway. The first is simply explore the offices of Abstergo Entertainment. There is a lot to see to begin with. The second is find the sticky notes scattered throughout the office. Each of the sticky notes will give you some hints to the story that is going on behind the scenes at Abstergo.
The first sticky note is found in your cubicle. Turn over to the right and head over to it. You will see the Wireless icon light up. Hit the wireless button to access the sticky note and read what is on it. This is Sticky # 2. Head around to the reception desk that you passed to find another Sticky note on the Western side of it. This is Sticky #17. Head over to the right now and follow the wall past the hallway on that side. Go past the trio of people talking and keep looking ahead. You will see a pair of people on the right-hand couch. Go to the bookshelf to the right of them to find the next Sticky: #7.
With Sticky #7 in your possession, head over to the West. Go to the second cubical in that direction. Yo uwill see someone plugged into an Animus terminal. Look on the closest edge of the cubical to find the Sticky. This is Sticky #8.
Head to the Southwest and toward the CCO's office. While there is a Note in there, you cannot get at it right now. Head to the West of it to find the next one on the Southern wall. It sits on the Western booth. This is Sticky #4. There are only a few more Stickies that can be found in the present day.
Head on over to the elevator and take it on down to Floor 1. Go across the bridge and look on the desk to the right on the far side of it. Just behind that desk is a divider. On that divider is the next sticky: #10. Turn around now and head for the Coffee Stand that is nearby. Look just to the right of the Barista to find the next Sticky Note. This is Sticky #6 and the final one you can collect on Day 1 between Sequences 1 and 2.
With those Sticky Notes Collected, head on back to your Animus Station. It is time to resume play as Edward and see what he is going to do next. Logging into the Animus triggers the log-in sequence and tunes you into the events of the next sequence.
