I don't think so, because one of the earliest things that Alex Amancio ever revealed about them months before release was "our new target confessions." He seemed quite proud of this evolution, and he even explained it in-depth in the interview. That was something I wasn't expecting, since it's technically spoilers and since Ubisoft never reveals anything but Historical content in Promo footage of any kind.

It's possible that things talked about early have no correlation with where in the game's process it was conceived of, but I'm just throwing it out there.

Remember that those interviews took place in the last year of development, and Unity took roughly three years to make. My thinking is that the new target confession concept came together about when black flag was finishing up, so they implemented it in about the last third of the project and had to adapt the script.

Good point. Either way, it's unfortunate that it wasn't paid so much attention to.
