I didnt enjoy the multiplayer in the beta but as always the single player will be great.

Holy crap! Major super spoiler from the end of Brotherhood (someone just spoiled it for me but for those that don't care...)

Desmond kills Lucy!

Ah man I gotta not read posts in gmail.

Yeah, I have been there. Luckily this time I wasn't.

I'm about half way done through sequence 2 and I'm loving it. I forgot how frustrating some of the dungeons in this series can be. The game's world seems huge and if you are a completionist about flags and feathers, the single player part could take a lot of time(in a good way). Since I don't have gold, I haven't tried the multiplayer modes.

Took a chance on the game today, even though it wasn't on my radar. I'm gonna try it out now.

Like some have already said, I'm waiting for the black friday deals before picking this up. Either way, I enjoyed AC 2 too much to not play this.

Seems to be getting great press so far. I fell in love with AC2, so I will be picking this up next week during BF.

I'm in sequence 2 and the single player is really good so far. It was quite polished with AC2, now its just polished and fun. I am trying to get into a multiplayer session but seem to be unable to. Bummer.

EDIT: Took about 4 tries but finally am getting in.

Does anyone have the CE? Is the disk the soundtrack is on a game disk meaning the tracks are locked to it and can't be ripped to your PC?

(This is how it was for AC 1 and 2 CE, and the PoP CE.)

Multiplayer is really cool. But most of the kills were chained together because the person you are pursuing kills someone... which is pretty obvious... and then you kill them and someone else sees you and gets you... so on. I would say 75% of the my deaths were chain-kills. They try to balance it out by rewarding for "creative" kills which gives around 4x points but it may take some time to do that well.

Man what the hell, they pulled that same shit with the new Prince of Persia game. I ended up getting the tracks off youtube but still it would have been nice to have high quality versions of the soundtrack.

Soundtrack is on a DVD playable in (I guess?) any DVD player, but the file structure in Windows doesn't show the audio tracks; it just treats it like a movie DVD. I'm not familiar with ripping tracks from something like that, but I guess you could do audio files in a DVD ripper.

How is the multiplayer in this game? I'll probably finish the SP in a week or so and I'll be playing the MP for a while if it's good. Is it fun?

I don't know if that's the case or not with the AC: Brotherhood CE that's why I was asking. That is literally the main reason I haven't gotten the CE and am waiting on a deal on the standard edition.

It's funny with the AC series and me. I got the first CE because I was in line at Gamestop the week after it came out and someone traded the whole thing in with all the bonuses. I watched my friends play it at my old apartment but never played it myself. AC 2 I got as the free game in the BB B2G1F sale and I really liked it, much more than I remember watching with AC 1. At the same Gamestop I got AC 1 CE, they still had an AC 2 CE. Only reason I wanted it was because the figure was actually a good size this time. I bought it and traded in my standard copy of AC 1 for $35 after promotions.

I did rent the game at Blockbuster just to try it out and the single player is definately giving me the Dragon Age Origins: Awakening-like vibe, and that's not a bad thing. Funny how they wrote the "Metroid/Castlevania" moment into the beginning of the game.

What's the difference between ranked and player matches? Both give you xp.

I don't just for that reason. Sorry man. It was one of those OMG things I had to tell someone, but slapped the spoiler tags on it cause I know not everyone here wants them.

Anybody else order from Amazon? I got release day delivery and no release day arrival...
Oh, well. At least I have Enslaved to play until it arrives.

I definitely tool the lead in the last ten seconds and didn't get the achievement.

I got mine around like 5 pm last night. Screw UPS. Anyways, loving the game so far and the multiplayer is a lot of fun. Although I think I did have more fun playing it at E3 because I did get to see people's reactions to getting assassinated lol. But overall this a great game and look forward to assassinating some of you online :]
