Corris Veteran Posted January 28, 2010 Veteran Share Posted January 28, 2010 So anyone bought the DLC? I was thinking of buying it regardless, though its a pity there are no trophies or anything extra in it. :( Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/843506-official-assassins-creed-2/page/14/#findComment-592171076 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael1406 Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Just loading up the game now, I'd give opinions if you wanted but for ?3.19 it could be crap and people wouldn't care.

Corris Veteran Posted January 28, 2010 Veteran Share Posted January 28, 2010 Played and finished, it was alright, probably took between 30-45 mins to do. Wasn't anything great, and finishes where sequence 13 is to begin, so you won't know what happens unless you buy both. If you have the extra money lying around in your account on XBL/PSN and want to get rid of it, and you like AC2, then I'm sure it is worth it, but it was a bit meh in the end.

I agree, it was a quick breeze through, but it was fun. If you want to fill in the gaps, it's a good pick up. I'm kinda glad it came out, I have 37 more feathers to ago and I didn't really want to go hunting, but now that it's in my console, I guess I have an excuse to finish it off. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/843506-official-assassins-creed-2/page/14/#findComment-592172438 Share on other sites More sharing options...

No trophies were added to the PS3 version, so I would guess no to the achievements as well.

It is just a gap filler, the parts it shows weren't really necessary in the game. Basically like a deleted scene from a film.

Smigit Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Ok so I played the addon today. I won't say I regret getting it but I must say it wasn't anything too special either. I think it lived up to its name of being a battle, unfortunatly I found the fighting mechanics of AC2 to not necessarily be the stong point so having such a combat heavy addon wasn't all that exciting IMHO. Still, it was relatively cheap so for fans i think it's probably worth getting if only to fill in a few holes. It also ended on a bit of an edge too which is a decent lead in to the next one which should hopefully be a bit more exciting too. It is pretty short but so if you are on the fence or don't think it'll be enough I think it wouldn't be a total waste to wait until the next pack is released and play them both in one go. It might be a bit more substantial that way.

Razorwing Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 They may bundle it. That's what I think. I"m probably going wait for the 2nd one to come and buy both in 1 go.

Smigit Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 They might bundle them for a retail sale but I don't think its something normally done for digital purchases? I think they'll be sold seperate and they'll release an Assassins Creed GOTY edition at some point that includes the chapters on the disc.

Smigit Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 actually on that note, I wonder if they'll include it in the PC release or not given thats not out until March. Would be a nice "thanks for putting up with us" gesture if they did.

soniqstylz Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 By the way, the DLC does not include any trophies or achievements. And the first one is completeable in less than an hour, and appears to still not have the polish of the full title (broken AI, etc.).

I'm pretty sure they're including everything for the PC version, can't remember where I read it, but there will be a version with all the DLC :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/843506-official-assassins-creed-2/page/14/#findComment-592196346 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Borrowed it from a friend for a few hours - making me run out and buying it now. I bought and beat the first one over christmas break from school a few years back--enjoyed it for what it was, then re-sold it. I'll probably do the same with this. Love the storyline and gameplay... just not really replayable. I hope they put one in ancient china. That would be sick. Or London during the 1700's One thing I LOVE about this game is all of the background info you can get by pushing the back button on the controller. I learned that Da Vinci created designs for a helicopter and solar power!

D!ABOL!C Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Thought i'd bring this back to the top. The second DLC, Bonfire of the Vanities will be out on the 18th for XBL and PSN.

Yusuf M. Veteran Posted February 21, 2010 Veteran Share Posted February 21, 2010 Apparently, Assassin's Creed 2 will be DX9-only on the PC. A bit weird since the first game supported DX10 as well as DX10.1 (which was later removed in a patch).

The_Observer Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 this game should be BANNED in threads due to DRM cr@p coming with this game! For me they are wanting you to move to console!

Brandon Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Just finished the game. Totally wish there were more games like it. Solid story line, other activities, fun, making you think how to accomplish something from occasion to occasion. Gonna miss it.
