Really dont like these at all, all seem so long and boring, i wasnt gonna get this because so many decent games coming out but if army of two is delayed then i may have to get this. hope the secret achievements are easier!!!

The achievements look awesome! Can't wait to play it, they look mixed from short to long one's, pretty much like Bioshock one's and I would take a guess that some of the secret one's are to kill certain people... like Bio had.

These look stupid as hell, alot of them look like they're of the easy do something more-times than you need to variety, and theres a couple of those stupid ass find a bunch of object ones that add nothing to the game. Looks easy once a guide is up for the locations, maybe before that.

Secret achievements are probably story stuff.

10-23-2007, 10:57 AM
I think they mixed it up perfectly......Some look to be easy and some hard. Definitely looks like I'll be able to get a perfect 1000 on this one, though it does seem like it will take some time.

and theres a couple of those stupid ass find a bunch of object ones that add nothing to the game.

Finding these objects dont add anything to the game but without the achievement i wouldnt even attempt finding them so having achievements like this add a bit extra to the game.

Overall these achievements look awesome, i cant wait!! :woop:

It looks like a nice mix of stuff here. Nothing wrong with rewarding people for completely exploring the game. The secret stuff has got to be story-related stuff like Bioshock. They just don't want to reveal story elements in the achievement list.

"find 85% of the memory leaks".. Unless I'm missing something, does that achievement want us to find broken level design or programming? :eek:

10-23-2007, 03:32 PM
some of them look very hard but its a good list

chunkypony
10-23-2007, 03:38 PM
I'm now officially excited for this game. I mean I was before, but this list just kinda confirms that it is actually going to come out soon! THIS RULES!

Plus the achievements look both time-consuming and fun at the same time, so I'll get a lot of playing out of this game.

AOSKINS
10-23-2007, 03:39 PM
Amazing list! I just have to make sure not to check the secret ones when they come out and have the story ruined for me like Bioshock, can't wait!

I'm guessing it has something to do with the story and the main character's memory.

I like these achievements. They aren't anything completely original but they look like they will be fun to get.

I can't wait for this game. Anybody getting the limited edition?

Shinobi273
10-23-2007, 07:17 PM
I can't wait for this game. Anybody getting the limited edition?

I don't care for the achievements right now because I'm not sure about how the game will have missions and still be open world unless it is like Oblivion without magic and climbing on walls and blending in with the crowds. I was more hoping the game style would work like Hitman. I can see the list being good or bad. The memory leak one is strange.

Isn't this game the one that the cover for the standard edition looks better than the limited edition? If so, I'm going for the standard.

ClutchPapi34
10-23-2007, 07:42 PM
I think they look very balanced. I would still get this game even if they sucked though.

Its also a pain in the ass ! How we all want a high GS,that we have to go and use money to do that...Its a great way to earn money...But yeah, we wouldnt even do half the stuff if it wasnt for the achievements.

JakofAllAces
10-23-2007, 08:33 PM
kind of worried about the kill 100 enemies with out dieing i hope their is some sort of long ranged wepond because in close combat that would be annoying

Birky
10-23-2007, 08:40 PM
Some of the assassin achievements make me think of Hitman...
I think it's a good list so far. But none of us can judge for sure. If the game has 12,739 items to collect then you will be pissed about the collecting achievements, but if there is like 50 or 100 then I don't mind that much. Also finding stuff DOES add to games. Bioshock... The diary's... I don't think I could have understood a lick of the story without them.

Shinobi273
10-23-2007, 08:44 PM

AJMac

I think the idea of collecting items will be good. Hopefully, they will include free-running and finding a certain passage to get to the one item and require both thinking and skill.

also i think the 360 has been out for long enough that we arent going to see many more 'original' achievements.

Participating in the community event Ubisoft Montreal Studios did, I got my hands on the game for about 3-4 hours. The flags do help out quite a bit. They are used as a easy save point to start from if you die and also restores your health all the way. They are very spread out, but they aren't too hard to spot as they are usually on top of a building or in a space between buildings.

The flags heal you? That seems like it'd be a pretty key part of the gameplay to me. I hope they fit into the gameplay well. This game looks sweet.

argh! why does every game do this ' find this many items' its always find this n that, crackdown , spiderman and evry single freakin free roam game does it, yeah it keeps u playin after you have done the game, but its such boring achievements to put on a game,hate when they do this, the list looks tasty though, except them stupid finding things :( been waiting for this game for year now, since it came on ps3, was tempted to get a ps3 just for this, now seeing the find thingys, im just goin play this game for the fun, not for achievements this time.

glasstiger50
10-31-2007, 12:05 AM
In my opinion, the achievements suck major testicles. There's too many "Collect all of 'X' items" and no enough variety. I wish they would have made them more interesting.

Minty
10-31-2007, 06:49 PM
I think that the list looks spot on. Few challenging ones, and a few you'll get just by playing the game.

Most people will be buying this game, as its probably going to be Top 3 GOTY, so ones that will take time are good. Remember you can free roam, and exploring is part of the fun. They didnt make 3 large cities that you can enter every building just for someone to run down the high street and not pay attention to the rest of the game.

People who have played the game said you can only enter a few buildings. xD

Yeah, I agree. I like this list.
The flags will add more to the game, they will take you to new places you never knew was there. They will be great to get, looking around the rooftops and what not.

15 odd days to go now lads.

Lol, combat is easy and fun in this game, and if you get low on "hp" you can just break the line of sight from the guards, and then hide in a haystack or something else... and then you are good to go... on a side note, you loose "hp" when killing Civilians


P.S. Most of the secret achievemnts so faar are story related, the things you are going to spend some time with is flag hunting... + Killing templars :uzi:

All secret ahievements, are for completing the level (mission)

The collectables seem very long to get, in each city you visit they is sometimes around 100 items you have to find, aswell as the items outside of the citys when your riding your horse, I would say they is an easy 1000 items, maybe more you need to find. and believe me its hard.

thats a little vague... try to send in some secret achievment pics... only norway has the game so you got 2 days to send in the secret pics!

p.s. collecting stuff bites

Twisted Ryu
11-12-2007, 08:00 PM
got 94 of the 100 flags outside the cities, I know where to find number 95, but after that I must travel to the dark places in hope of finding the last 5..... killed 40 templars of the 60, but havent realy search the cities for them (have searched outside, I think theres 30 outside and 10 in each cities (not counting the starter town)), theres 3 cities with 100 flags in them (acre has 3 different flags), + 100 flags between the cities, and 20 in the starter town...

Hunting the flags & templar is easy, but time consuming ^^
and yes, all the secrets achievemnts are story based.. and since this is a assasin game try to guess how you'll get them :P


Edit: The flags and templar hunting "forces" you to explore the areas you normaly wouldnt go to during the story ;)

Twisted Ryu
11-13-2007, 08:13 PM
used like 4 days to complet the main story ^^
depending on how you play will affect how long its going to take... i rushed from place to place with no regards to stealth ^^

exept when i had to assasinate someone (main plot or side quest)

You can get all 1000 gamerpoints during 1 playthrough, correct? I just started the game and I'm wondering if it is possible even after defeating the final boss or whatever there is in the game, if you can go back and do stuff that you missed like find flags and what-not.

Question for people who have put a bunch of time into this game. I don't want to MISS any achievements. Or screw something up so I will have to restart the entire game. Can someone tell me exactly which/if any achievements can be missed or screwed up?? Here are some that have me concerned.

Personal Vendetta - Kill every Templar. Are there any that you can just miss and not be able to go back for??

Hungerer of Knowledge - What the hell is this achievement??

Conversationalist - Can you screw it up and not be able to get this one??

Disciple of the Creed - Assassinate all targets with a ful DNA bar. So this one really sounds like you can screw it up.

Defeat 100 Opponents without dying - is it possible to kill everyone and therefore not be able to get this one??

Any Secret achievements that you can screw up or miss??

Xerofox
11-14-2007, 09:37 PM

That one is easy, just go for the stealth kills and you'll get this achievements in no time.

Anyway, does anyone know what the memory glitches are?
Are those the blue matrix like moments in the cut scenes and how do you know you got one?

I don't want to ruin anything but I'll just tell you she is one of the first people you meet. You'll see right when you start up.

Occasionally through the game when you return to that "area" you will have options to chat with her.

This is not a game for just getting those achievements, take your time and n-joy the game. If you just want achievements buy COD4.

Some achievements r hard. Like those flags you have to collect in the 3 different citties.. Damn.. Guide is needed i guess :D ;).

Because COD4 shouldn't be enjoyed or something?

Anyway, has anyone gotten any secret achievements yet? There are quite a few, hopefully they aren't things you can just miss on accident and never do again. But I'm assuming they are just "beat this level" secret achievements.

Dizzy Domes
11-15-2007, 06:12 PM
Can anyone help me clear something up about these achievements "Complete every free mission in _________." Do you get the achievement after killing the target? As far as I know I have completed everything in the first city except killing the target and collecting all of the flags. But I don't have the achievement. When do you get these?

Dravz
11-15-2007, 06:54 PM
Keep in mind there are multiple districts in each city. If you haven't killed the first target then you have only cleared out the poor district, iirc.

jesscal11
11-15-2007, 07:54 PM
I'm still having trouble with this Combo achievement... I have killed over 100 gaurds with the sword, but no luck... is it really all about the timing of hitting the X button? If so, how can I do it without the guards blocking me?

BustaMo
11-15-2007, 08:28 PM
It's going to be a heckuva lot tougher when you are surrounded by a bunch of other guards hacking away at you too. Try to take on only 1 or 2 guards if this is the achievement you are mainly focusing on right now. I'm closing in on the 100 Combo's myself.

jesscal11
11-15-2007, 08:40 PM
100 combo? Is that a secret achievement I thought it was just 50.

Also, too bad the game doesn't let you see how many you have done so far.

Dizzy Domes
11-15-2007, 09:22 PM

Question about the Lucy achievement. What counts here? Is this scripted to a point where I can still complete it without doing anything special after the 2nd assassination? What exactly needs to be done, and how screwed am I if I did nothing special prior to the 2nd assassination?

I finished the game and didn't get it, and now you can't go back and redo the "present time" scenes when you're Miles. And if you want to start a new game, you can only overwrite your previous save. So I guess I gotta copy my save to a memory card, start over and run through the whole game doing minimum requirements and hope I get it. Then put my original save back on there so I can continue collecting flags. Sucks.

Xerofox
11-16-2007, 12:06 AM
The first time I could speak to Lucy was after the machine got too hot and she needed to fix it, that was after the 3rd assassination. I think that's the start of the achievement.

I wonder if those other things like stealing the pen from the other guy in the office and finding the secret note in your room counts towards this achievement.

I was able to talk to Lucy the first time you come out of the machine (when her and the other doctor go into the conference room to talk). Right when they are done talking in the conference room they will both walk out of the room and warren will leave though some big double doors and Lucy stands over the machine working on the computer. That is the 1st time you can talk to her.

WARNING POSSIBLE SPOILER...........................She will ask you about being an assassin.

When the machine over heats that is the second time you talk to her.

For this one, unless I missed some of the postings, but u don't need the towers necessarily for the achievement. That would take a long time climbing and "leaping". The faster way, I did in the first mission. Just find something that is higher than the usual "hut"/house and "leap" into the hay stacks. It will do the "leaping" everytime and not counting, but its a lot faster. It took me under 5 minutes.

kind of worried about the kill 100 enemies with out dieing i hope their is some sort of long ranged wepond because in close combat that would be annoying

thats actually pretty easy. Inspecially if u are doing it at the begining of the game, for like example: 1st Assassination.

The first time I could speak to Lucy was after the machine got too hot and she needed to fix it, that was after the 3rd assassination. I think that's the start of the achievement.

I wonder if those other things like stealing the pen from the other guy in the office and finding the secret note in your room counts towards this achievement.

How do you steal the pen and find the secret note?

You can do a similar thing to get the Gifted Escapist achievement -- the one where you have to jump through 20 fruit stands. I did it in Masyaf at a single merchant stand, just freerunning through it back and forth.

I found an easy way to get the last 10 minutes in conflict. On your first trip to jerusalem, you must save a citizen right outside the gate. Kill all the guards but one. Then position yourself with your back directly to the wood fence thing and just hold r-trigger for 10 minutes (or rubber-band/tape). It worked for me.

It is my understanding that you need to use them and then pickpocket more. It's why I'm working on the 75 knifethrow kills and the pickpocket 200 at the same time.

I think I got a glitched Absolute Symbiosis. I assumed the Achievement unlocked after 2 full bars, is that wrong? I'm only done with the 5 assassination (Regent in Jerusalem for me) although I have done all the side missions prior to each, I believe my lower bar is about 3 or 4 short of max. Anyway, I killed the guy, FF'd (warped, whatever) back home, got the speech, new eqp'mt, etc. Then I paused the game, chose to exit, confirmed yes. As soon as it went back to the main menu, the Absolute Symbiosis unlocked.

I just got the Disciple of the Creed achievement (full DNA bar one) and can confirm that you do not need full health when you assassinate your target. I killed the second or third target without full health, and I most certainly did not kill Robert with full health.

I DID however do every single mission in each town before actually assassinating my target. That means all of the investigations, high points, and saving citizens.

For those of you that have only done two or three investigations before the assassination, I did the same on my first. I went back later (about when I was on block 4) and replayed the memory, redoing all of the investigations, etc. When I downed Robert, I got the achievement. So you CAN go back and replay memory blocks and still get the achievement.

Hope this helps clear up some confusion about this one.

Question about the Lucy achievement. What counts here? Is this scripted to a point where I can still complete it without doing anything special after the 2nd assassination? What exactly needs to be done, and how screwed am I if I did nothing special prior to the 2nd assassination?
You can talk to Lucy every time you return to the future. You're screwed on this achievement without starting a new game.

How can you tell if or how do you do combo kills for the achievement or in just general? Also how or where is best for the 25 in a fight one too? Because I have all the eagle achievements, but these two! Thanks in advance.

11-17-2007, 10:18 PM
I killed 25 guys in single fight by the accident, I don't really know how it works, but i have some thoughts (there may be some spoiler, but I don't think so):

Near the end of the game in the very last place that will be unlocked after you perform all 9 assassinations, I attacked the first group of soldiers I saw (3 archers). I killed them, and then I noticed that I have that red blinking triangles (like I was in a fight) but that was just a two archers - they was shooting somewhere else, but was not interested with me, so I just ran forward. Then there was more scripted fights, but I was still in a one fight because there were many soldiers running in some locations that I couldn't reach, and I just unlocked that achievement in some battle that I'm sure there weren't 25 enemys. There are just some big fights in the end of the game so you'll probably earn it in one of them.

And the combo kills - you can practice them in the courtyard in Masyaf - just attack some enemy and when your sword will have a contact with him or his sword then hit X one more time and you will kill you, I hope you understand.

BustaMo

Yeah thanks for that soopastylin that helps, also same here BustaMo, I cannot get past 18 (i will see at the end of game like soopasttlin said), but same here the last couple flee and once they are taken out that ends the fight, but more come to battle me, but the red stops and then redos so doesnt count towards it! Guess ill wait until im later in the game.

bonkd1nk
11-18-2007, 01:45 AM
Sorry for the double posting, but I got the 25 kills achievement a few minutes ago and heres how to get it for those of you that are having trouble (easier way). Go to a target (the guys you have to kill) and get them to chase you aka fight them and run, then just kill 25 soldiers WITHOUT killing the target and BOOM there is the achievement! Hope that helps.

Reason that works is I couldnt hide from the target even when far away so it stays in battle mode the whole time as long as A. you dont kill him and B. you stay alive that simple ;-)

BustaMo
11-18-2007, 03:08 AM
Ah, that's true. I've been more worried and focused on completing the assassinations that I really didn't think of that. If I don't get the 25 on this first run-through, then I'll go back and try an assassination that way and just kill off 25 before I eliminate the target.

bonkd1nk
11-18-2007, 06:00 AM
Yeah it works very well, but Im confused about the DNA achievement now and

*WARNING: Possible spoiler below!*




I have elimanated the first 3 targets and Im on the 4-6 ones (where you choose any of the three cities to go to and they all have a target) well how do you do the side missions during these? I have went to the cities to do the DNA fill, but there are no rescues, pickpockets, view points, etc and I did them all up to this point! Do I need to trigger something first?

Because it says 0/6 investigations done, but I swear there are none in the cities! Help and thanks :)

soopastylin
11-18-2007, 06:53 AM
Yeah, game don't tells you that you unlocked a new district of city - if your first assassination was in the poor district, set up a marker somewhere in a rich district (it will be unlocked now) and search for one view point (there will be eagle flying above it, you know), and when you'll unlock it, all view points (and investigations if you already been in Bureau) will reveal on the map.
The districts unlocks in the following order: Rich/Poor > Poor/Rich > Middle

By the way, I was wondering if Informers' missions counts in the DNA bar? I think they are, but I just finished game yesterday, I was doing all side quests and investigations except Informers' quests because I didn't like that time missions, and after I'm killed my last target it just unlocked. Maybe a glitch or something, but anyway I'm gonna finish the game one more time and do everything ;F

Well I can answer one of your questions. You can be seen to get the Balde in the Crowd. I got mine while being surrounded by a bunch of people. The catch is that the target you are killing must be unaware that he is about to die. Just use your hidden blade.

1. The save missions, according to the strategy guide

2. For Eagle's Prey you just have to assassinate 100 guards, regardless of how you do it; for Eagle's Talon you perform 50 stealth assassinations on anyone, guards or civies.

I just had a really glitchy thing happen. Not sure if this will unlock the achievement or not though:

I just threw a guard off a roof, but he landed on a platform below. He survived. Now e's not coming after me and is looking in the opposite direction of me(I'm still above him) and he's not doing anything except say -

You think you can outrun me? Come back here! You're mine! You'll never get away!

Buggy AI. But It's happened before in other games. Can't just single out AC.

So I'm wondering if I'll get the open conflict achievement or not. I;m going to let it run for a few more minutes and see.

UPDATE: Just got it (Eagles Flight - 20G). If this happens to you, just stand still. It works perfectly. Thank you glitchy AI!

You can go back and get them later. We are currently working on posting the locations in a different thread, but it isn't too far along as of yet.


*spoiler?*
I'm not positive, but I think the only thing you can't go back for is the "conversationalist" achievemnt because you can't go back to the different intervals when you are Miles, so make sure you talk to Lucy every single time you are Miles and check her emails.

I was playing the first part of damascus trying to get all of the side missions before I went to the guild, I quit playing and when I started it back up it forwarded me inside the guild and gave me the whole cutscene.

I started the game over because I didnt want to be there, this time I went and did half of the missions in the poor district and exited the city and road a horse to the kingdom and it saved just fine.

It sucks not being able to skip the cutscenes and having to do the whole first part of the game over again.

A Combo Kill is determined when attacking an enemy (usually blocking) results in a finishing move that was not triggered while holding down the Right Trigger. Counter does not equal Combo Kill. Just bash on enemies, you'll get it eventually. The game mentions in the tutorial to hit X at the same time your weapon impacts (aka a Clash of metal) your enemy's blade.

11-21-2007, 09:10 AM
You'll notice a split second that it slows when the blades clank. This is when you press x and continue doing it. You'll know if you get a combo kill because Altair will execute them kind of like a counter, except you didn't counter.

Take my advice and restart the game if you have collected any. Makes the difference between an hour a city looking for all of them and 10 hours a city for the last flag.

So what assassination did you guys get A Blade In The Crowd on?
Mine was the good Doc in Acre. Was going around inside the hospital looking to get up on the rafters when he suddenly appeared in front of me and I reflex-tapped X to assassinate him with the hidden blade.

alright, for he disciple of the creed one is it necessary to complete all side missions before assinating your target? i already killed the first guy wihtout completeing all the sides. If i had to, i can go back and replay the missions right?

The thugs with the leather hoods and satchels on the back of their belt, they often highlight automatically like guards. They are also the ones that will fight you if you knock them over.

So... there's no way that the "Disciple of the Creed" Achievement means that you have to kill every boss with full health. It's doing all possible research in every city before assassinating your target. I am 100% sure that at least on half of my targets I had half health, and I just got it. But I did do my research ;-). I hope that helped clear things up!

you can either do that, or get in one of those lots and get up close to one of the walls where they can't shoot you. that's what i did. if you get our of their line of sight, they can't see you, thefore, they can't shoot you with arrows.

Aaaargh, 980/1000 and I have to replay the entire game for Conversationalist. Does anyone know if, when replaying, you'll unlock that achievement after you see the last dialogue that you missed (like the memory glitch ach), or if you have to see them all in one playthrough?

As for the Combo Kills, it's possible to get that achievement in the training arena for one. However, the timing is just slightly before your blade makes contact, you want to tap at the moment the "clang" sound starts. It's a continuous rythym and it never changes, so once you get the timing down, you'll have it.

Since you are on this site is is safe to say you are going for as many Achievements as possible. In this game it is almost impossible to get all flags in one go if you miss 1. So just make sure you stealth kill your first target which is the easiest one to do so in.

This is contradictory, isn't it? I have got the "Fearless" and before finishing each assassin, I have for sure gone through every little games

I could not get that message at all from your previous post. Anyhow, to get this achievement you need to press any button during cutsceens when the screens "glitches" (a temporary flash usually when a major action or speech is about to occur). Do it enough and it will unlock. Earliest to unlock is after defeating 9th target.

I got it right outside of acre there is a guard post with lots of guards I had to defend and walk backwards up the hill with 2 attacking me to and engage the guards by the high point.tip- kill the templar first go into acre and come back out to reset the guards, then cause an alarm and piss everyone off then climb the towers and kill the archers so that they count in the 25

I didn't realize that there were also glitches for "Hungerer of Knowledge" when you assassinate someone until my 6th target, so I wound up not getting the achievement once I beat the game. Has anyone confirmed if it's possible to go back to prior memory blocks to replay the assassinations and get the glitches? I saw on here where someone said they didn't think it was possible, but I just wanted to see if it had been confirmed.

Also, when it comes to hunting down flags and killing the remaining templars, when is the best time to search for them: Either in game as you're going through the assassinations and side missions, or is it better to beat the game and go to a certain memory block to complete the search? Thanks.

I am getting them as I go through the game but you have to be really meticulus in your searching and make sure you dont miss anything, and make sure you explore everywhere before you finish your mission. I have not beaten the game yet so we will see how my method of 100 % on one playthrough goes.

I have a new thought regarding the Disciple of the Creed achievement. It says that you must assassinate each target with a full DNA bar. I took this to mean that you needed to have a complete DNA memory bar - the thing that fills up as you complete investigations, save citizens, and climb viewpoints - and I played the game under that assumption, doing every side mission before killing the main target. It worked and I got the achievement after the final assassination. Others have reported getting the achievement without doing all the side missions because they took the achivement to mean that you needed to have full health - a complete DNA synchronization bar - when doing each assassination. Since the achievement doesn't explicitly say which DNA bar needs to be full maybe its intended to work either way. Of course, it might just be glitched. Regardless, I got it by doing all the side missions, save citizens, and synchronizing at all the view points before killing the primary target.

You got it just the same as everyone else who got it - simply for beating the game. The achievement is glitched and there is no criteria for getting it other than completing the final assassination.
