Achievement Guide and Roadmap

[DeekBoy]

i think that they should just have a thread that shares links to both of them. kind of like what Method did for the threads in the Black Ops Page... just a thought

BTW: why make videos in 780p and not 1080?

I believe the 1080p recorder costs a ton more than the 720p, so that might be it. Either way though, you really don't need 1080p for a guide. 720p is more than enough. Rendering 1080p is also a much more annoying task for your computer.

It's not a ton more for 1080P but it's just a rare item. I had pre-ordered one and months and months later after delays it finally shipped and I returned it within a week. The videos will almost 100% of the time be watched on youtube, so there's no real need to go all out and make people buffer longer and take extreme amounts of HD space. My quality takes 6 MB/S which adds up pretty fast! I try to cut as much out of my videos as I can.

Anyways..back on topic. Guide is finished and submitted. Any last minute efforts needed to make the guide better or fixed grammar, let me know please and I'll fix it. It's always helpful!

Assassins Creed is the type of game that deserves this creme de la creme treatment from good guide makers.

Thus we now have a perfect guide that does justice to a great game.

Fast questions, the flags inside the six Lairs, do I have the collect them while I'm inside or can I come back later and collect them?
Thanks

If you do not collect them on your first run-through, you can replay them in the DNA menu. All are found via Secret Locations. The only exception is Termi De Triani (spelling?). You can replay it in Sequence 2.

you can come back, go to the DNA strand and find the lair via that. my explanation might not help but thats what i have read elsewhere since i have yet to go and hunt for flags

Yup missed a few myself ... as you take a quick gander around as you leave some area and look up and go 'ah crap' as you see some glowing thing well out of reach. Those lairs are good an all but really makes me feel like I'm playing Tomb Raider without the tanned ass and her falling to her death every 30 seconds. But in saying that I want to stretch this game out so missing a few just gives me a good excuse to keep playing.

But I'm confident that you can go back and collect them all. It would be far too cruel if you couldn't.

[Metaphorically]

All right, much appreciated guys.

Thanks for the amazing guide, guys! I will propably be doing the multiplayer experience mostly legit without boosting because it's quite fun. And I have a friend who also got this game for Christmas and we are playing Advanced Alliance almost all the time (well, yesterday ) because we can be a team of 2.

On the multiplayer experience though I'd like to say that it's kinda stupid when everyone of your team have the same target. In one match yesterday I got 1 kill and 0 deaths, the first of our team got 9 kills and 0 deaths. Why is that? Because he had the super sprint or whatever ability and he always found the target before me. Now I know that you can change your targets, but it still isn't enough... After the guy killed his target, he changed to my target and ran with the super sprint and killed my target in front of me

Also the "hide n seek" mode is quite prejudiced for the killers, because it brings back to my mind the good "old" days from Modern Warfare 2 with the Commando perk; you can jump from 20 meters from your target and kill them. One time I was running away from my pursuer and my guy suddenly just stopped. Then the pursuer jumped far more than 10 meters away (we were both on ground level) and killed me, there was no chance in hell for me to escape.

Other than those two little annoying things in multiplayer, it is quite fun experience after all

Nice guide helped a lot!

[iBean]

Nice guide. All your guides are helpful and clear!

[Mgetter]

Great guide this should be stickied

[bigbear2face]

The "Synch Established", "Needle in a Haystack" and "Overachiever" achievements all can be easily achieved while doing the instructional training program for multiplayer.

In fact just doing the training thing will automatically unlock "Synch Established", the other two you have to do a little work for.

I only have one gripe with this guide. When finding the flags in the secret locations, I found your guide for each flag a little insufficient. I found myself needing a video guide for those flags in addition to yours (Especially for the first flag at the Catacombe di Roma, the video saved me). Just some food for thought, I suppose. Otherwise, great guide.

I probably should have just done pictures, but when I started doing videos I realized it was going to be under 30 seconds for each secret area. Which is better than watching someone do the complete area I guess. If there's room for improvement on the descriptions, please do tell (and not just link me to the video ).

I only had trouble with two of the flags, but the rest were fine. In the Basilica di San Pietro, I didn't realize that the first flag was on the monolith that's right outside that door, so perhaps you can just add a quick thing about that flag being on top of the monolith. And in the Catacombe di Roma, the ladder that you need to find in order to get the first flag is pretty out of the way, and in your guide it seemed like I'd stumble across it. To find the flag there, there's a hallway where you can swing on poles (it's the last hallway like this before the lift), and when you land on the wooden platform in that hallway, stop and turn to the left and go through that doorway to find the ladder. These are two pretty minor tweaks, but helpful for others nonetheless.

Nice Guide, Really Help me out a lot.

[MACCA LFC 4 LYF]

Nice guide should help a lot.. the collectible achievements are gonna be a pain as usual brilliant game though as all the assassins creeds have been

[Brothaa]

Thanks for the guide. Im glad that a few things gave been simplified(feathers and flags) Im still early on in the game but look forward to finishing it in the next few days then on to MP.

Much less of a pain in the ass than the first two games due to the maps that show you the location of everything minus the 18 fkags in the lair. Pluse Brotherhood has alot less collectibles than the other games (only 10 feathers)

[Hotdogmcgee]

I like this guide, thanks.

You have to complete every memory in any sequence with 100% sync (other than sequence 1) for this achievement to unlock, not just one memory.

[sniperpr5]

Great Guide!! Thanks for the work....

[Snoop QC]

Good guide!

[Hotdogmcgee]

bumping back to first page, at least one of the guides should be stickied by now. This is the one that's been most helpful to me.

[CYDude 808]

Great guide, extremely helpful...however there is a much more efficient and simple route for Download Complete that you may want to include instead of the one listed.

I just personally like the other method better for a few reasons

- You get many more bonuses

- You get a break for one round which makes the boosting much less of a drag.

- You get a mix of tasks which makes things seem a little faster

Your method seems fine for those who don't have a trusting boosting party though It sounds like it might be around the same XP in the long run, but I know it's semi annoying to have to keep locking on to someone at times, but maybe it's not as big of an issue here as long as everyone communicates. I'll check back and see if more people are confirming that method, so far seems pretty new. Good post though, it's good to have alernate strategies!
