Oh ic ... well ... I guess I won't bother with collecting the flags, killing the templars. I won't be "wasting time" doing that extra stuff.

robo3687 said: there is no crossbow



Hmm ... no crossbow eh? Damn ...

robo3687 said:
replaying a memory block doesn't wipe previous results, so if you did everything but the 'save citzen' missions you can just go back in and do those, and when you quit out you'll have a full memeory block



I'm glad to hear that
I will completely finish Memory Block 2 tonight
And then start the second half of Memory Block 3

robo3687 said:
yes the patch is out (its not a firmware update) and it should ask you to update automatically if you are signed into the PSN when you start the game



Yea, I got my copy of AC on Wednesday or Thursday and when I first loaded it ... it asked me to update to version 1.10.

Umm ... is it normal if (in Memory Block 4) my map doesn't have any marks to guide me where to go? i.e. I can't see the markers where the viewpoints are ... therefore I don't know where all the investigations are ...

Memory Block 4, the one where I have to make three assassinations. I'm trying to do Damascus one ...
I can see all the people who will help me escape (where I saved the citizens in the previous memory block) ... but I'm stuck because I don't know what I'm supposed to do ...

wutang: in that block you're heading into a new district so you need to manually find 1 viewpoint and then all the others will become visible

That's the thing. I climbed up one, and all Triangle did was use Eagle's Vision. I couldn't synchronise.

I've visited this city before, back in Memory Block 2 ... so it's not a new district ... or am I wrong?

In memory block 2 you go to the poor district of damascus to assassinate Tamir.

In memory block 4 you are required to go to the "rich district" of Damascus (its the entire western side of the map) after visiting the Bureau leader, in order to investigate and assassinate Abu'l Nuqoud.

There are 10 viewpoints to scale in this area. Go as far west as you can and then get to the rooftops and look around for a viewpoint (remember the eagles flying around show you where to look).

hope that helps

Oh, ok. Thanks man. Now I can continue the game ... I was really pissed last night when I got stuck ...

I just got my Dual Shock 3s but I must say, I wish they implemented more rumbling e.g. when pushing around the crowd ...

Thanks and help will be appreciated

Just gotta climb either of the pillars and jump to the balcony where he was asap. If you take too long those archer guys get in position and shoot you down when you try to jump. Once you're up there just chase fatty down.

Oh! That level! I just finished that 20 mins ago!

What I did was, I climbed up towards one of the archers and killed him. Got into position, and jumped onto that support beam thing in the centre of the forum. Ran across it, jumped onto the pole. Jumped again onto the balcony that fugly bastard was on.

He started to run away, so I chased him ... then used my favourite weapon ... the hidden blade

I think when you're on the ground where evryone is poisened you simply jump up to the right and chase him alogn the balcony. I can't remember the archers maybe I killed them before I entered teh start recording piece. Once you kill him you then have another massive run with about 20 guards after you...

Curious question ... do you guys use stealth at all?

I attempt to, but end up charging in and taking all the guards + assassination target all at once ...

Another curious question ... what are the additional memories? I'm presuming they're unlocked by collecting 100 of each flags (am I right?)

But has anyone unlocked them all? Are they worth unlocking? xD

if you go the additional memory bit in the pause menu it will tell you what they are, but from memory they are

Collect 20 Assassin's Flags (Masyaf)
Kill 60 Templars
Collect 100 King Richard Flags (in the kingdom)
Collect 33 Hospitalier Flags (Acre poor district)
Collect 34 Templar Flags (Acre Rich district)
Collect 33 Teutonic Flags (Acre Middle district)
Collect 100 Saracen Flags (Damascus - all districts)
Collect 100 Jerusalem Crosses (Jerusalem - all districts)

as for being worth unlocking...well you don't actually get anything for them (360 version has achievements for getting them though) but if you want the satisfaction that you completely finished the game, then they are worthwhile hunting down...i've only got about 25 flags in total to find and 2 templars...then i'm done

Oh, smeh. I only collect them when I notice them ... it helps me save the game sometimes

But nah, I'm not gonna bother. After I finish all the memory blocks, I think I'll just go download someone's complete save data

Muhahahaha xD

POSSIBLE SPOILERS

Yeah Wutang the ending is meant to leave you baffled i think, it just pretty much allows you to freely investigate the lab after the credits, if you go to the computers you can check the email on them which provides info, i thought it was a great idea, keeps you pondering about the sequel i reckon

Yea, apparently Assassin's Creed is a trilogy, that there will be a sequel.

I looked up on Wikipedia to research a bit about the "stuff I saw" ...

I haven't checked the e-mails! I hope I can still get in ... I didn't know how to save before quitting haha xD
