cbssi Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 (edited) UPDATE Ubisoft have posted on their Twitter that the DLC's release is going to be sooner than expected: Feb. 18, 2010. No news on whether this will affect the content (the pre-order bonuses, I mean), but I will keep you updated. Update again: The three pre-order maps can be purchased with this DLC, but they add 200 points onto the total price of the pack. Original post: The Bonfire of the Vanities will be released on February 25, and will also include the three bonus maps that were included in various versions of pre-orders of the game.

marecat41 Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 ^ I also agree. DLC without achievements is like eating kamikazi wings without a drink. Just not worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kliqIMB Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 That's weird because I just got this response from the Official Ubisoft team and they said that it's coming with DLC3? Which wouldn't Bonfire of the Vanities be DLC2? http://img403.imageshack.us/img403/7728/acmaps.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbssi Posted January 30, 2010 Author Share Posted January 30, 2010 Hmmm.... Who knows? Maybe we're interpreting this page wrong, and the lairs will in fact be released as separate DLC. However, I believe the value would increase dramatically if they were a part of Bonfire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmsy Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 i dont mind about achievements, unless they are story/achievement based, i just spent 11 hours doing the feathers and videos so i pretty collected out lol well excited got a month to finish this and then there will be more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearson Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 The other memory blocks had achievements, so I don't know why The Battle of Forli didn't have one. Since this is more or less a continuation of memory block 12, hopefully there will be an achievement associated with it. As far as the bonus maps are concerned, I think they'll be added with this DLC because there were only 2 planned, unless they're thinking of making the bonus maps DLC #3. Of course that would suck since I already have two of the three that came with my Master Assassin Edition CE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course that would suck since I already have two of the three that came with my Master Assassin Edition CE. well from that big plus on the DLC#2 pack id say they come with that... which is cool. There are 4 extra challenge maps... the one with the CE edition, The gamestop pre-order one, and The best buy pre-order one. The final is on the U-play prize. Its 30 points and as you play the game you can get it. I unlocked it first and just got the throwing knives and the theme (theme sucks bad) on to Altair costume... And you get 40 points for beating the game... (when you make an account you get 10) The Uplay is the crypt in the base town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Foxhound Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Has there been any word on whether this will feature achievements or not yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IEvil IMonkey Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 ^^ Id say 99.99% NO If there wasnt any for 1st DLC then 2nd wont be any different... the only reason its slightly more @ 400msp is that its 10 memory strands instead of 6 this time. Im praying on the 00.01% that it DOES have achievements but im not holding my breath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONS1EUR FOL1E Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 If there wasnt any for 1st DLC then 2nd wont be any different... Left 4 Dead only got extra achievements on it's second lot of DLC.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tatanko Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Here's my theory on what's meant by "DLC3", hopefully it will clear things up. I think they mean that the Bonfire of the Vanities + 3 extra maps are "DLC3". DLC2 would be Bonfire of the Vanities by itself, and DLC3 is the the combo pack.

ShaggyB Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 See post #5 of this thread. ahhh ok.... In that case id say typo.... because the official page has those listed with bonfire... and the official video never mentions a dlc3.... guess we have to wait and see though.

I'm thinking it may have been some sort of internal reference to the separate BotV and BotV+Bonus Maps packs, like I said in my post above. I'm hoping I'm wrong though because that sort of then says they wouldn't be releasing more DLC after BotV and I definitely want them to release more DLC.

Barbaric Duck Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I think they are calling it dlc3 because if u preordered assassins creed 2 u got a downloadable map with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShaggyB Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I think they are calling it dlc3 because if u preordered assassins creed 2 u got a downloadable map with it. but to get all 3 maps you had to pre-order at best buy and gamestop... and you must purchase the collectors edition... this bonus dlc would allow those who didnt get the pre-orders or the collectors to play all three.... and those who did get a pre-order and the collectors to play the third Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k1lls1gn Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 It needs achievs......or else i probly wont get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetBlackMagic Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 It needs achievs......or else i probly wont get it. Agreed...I finally broke down and bought the Forli DLC and was extremely disappointed. As fun as AC2 was, I figured one more memory would be worth it. Very repetitive and the simple fact that they didn't include at least a "memory completion" cheevo sucked hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
