So i got the achievement for completing the encyclopedia of the common man, but my game still says 2/3 for woodworker. I even followed lance around and saw him looking at a fence ive never seen him do that before, and it said i already did that. Also caught him plaining wood, inspecting a wheelbarrow, and inspecting his doors on his house. Wondering if my game is glitched.
I have a question for anybody who pre-ordered the game at Best Buy and got your pre-order DLC code(s). I didn't get mine and opened a case with BB support and they sent me a single code. They only sent a single code although the pre-order bonus was for a weapon+mission and the code is apparently not a 5x5 XBL code and is instead 5 fields of 4 characters and a single 3 character field. Is this supposed to be redeemed in-game somewhere or are they screwing with me?

No Flesh it's an in-game Ubisoft code. At the main menu of the game, go to options and then there's an option for Ubisoft code. Enter that and the content is unlocked (it's just an unlock key.)
It's the same thing with the Gamestop and Walmart missions.

So it looks like my homestead glitch might be fixed. I got the achievement for completing the encyclopedia of the common man, but my list still shows woodworker 2/3 even though right under it, its checked off and says i completed that one.
These fixes are supposed to be done by the end of the week.

The day Naval MP comes to AC3 is the same day Ubisoft can take all of my money. There's nothing more epic than playing chicken with an enemy ship then ramming into it, unloading with Chainshot and sailing away like a bitch. Ultimate troll tactic. Funniest shit ever especially when it's a pair of Man-O-War spamming Heat Shot. Full Sail these nuts... assholes.
Ah man... I'm so glad I have some Privateer missions left because I cleared the majority of those plus all the Naval ones with only two basic ship upgrades. Once you get the hang of it this shit is pure crack. Now... if only game economy and backtrac- er job format didn't suck so I could fully upgrade the ship. Oh how I miss the lazy way I made millions owning businesses and landmarks in Revelations. Easy, fun, ridiculously effective.

Well... after beating the game last night I humbly challenge anyone knowledgeable in the lore to grab a seat and explain to me how I didn't experience the second worst ending I've ever seen in gaming since ME3. Seriously. I pray that somehow I've simply not allowed enough time to pass for some underlying complex layer of greatness to set in, but deep in my heart I know the fail before me has struck true in the ungodly name of 'speculation'.

I thought this happened to me as well. It turns out when I was killing, I picked up an enemy weapon and accidentally sheathed it. If that's the case you can go to the store or the Homestead to re-equip your tomahawk.

Sorta ending spoilers so I'll tag it anyways
With that said I enjoyed the meat of the game and that's what counts. I'd love to see more of Conor's story and I'm looking forward to the future DLC when it hits.
Beat the main story finally. I was disappointed in the ending since I heard this was supposed to give closure on Desmond's story. It was very abrupt and the ending credits rolled for what seemed like an eternity. At least give me a good song to listen while that shit rolls.

So i downloaded the update and it fixed my woodworker from 2/3 to 3/3 and all the Encyclopedia of the common man challenges are done, yet it still appears. Shouldnt it vanish like the rest of them do when you are done?
Also i still have the "Completionist" achievement yet to get, i thought getting the rest of the EOTCM would make it pop. Do i need to get 100% in naval or story missions too? Ive done every Assassination, Courier, Delivery, Underground Tunnels, Liberations, Almanac, Feathers, Peg Leg, Chests, and Clubs. The only thing i havent done is 100% the story missions and naval missions.

Well... AC wasn't built on player choice being a main selling point of the IP nor did Ubisoft publicly make promises they hadn't intended on keeping in regards to the ending. That being said I am shocked a large majority of the fanbase seemingly couldn't care less. It's one thing as a fan to truly accept the lack of control you have in the creative process of a beloved franchise, but a whole other entirely to try and come up with a credible explanation for a what a blatant cop out this ending felt like.
What bothers me most about it is
What bothers me most about it is
Desmond's willingness to spend the last years of his life fighting a lesser evil only to accept a greater one down the line without batting an eyelash when he has a choice in the matter. I honestly thought like every assassin before him that fighting for freedom was worth any cost to him. Instead he suddenly couldn't handle the unpredictability of human nature, shut his brain down at the last second and bent over for Juno control. I mean... what the f*ck, eh?
It doesn't make any god damn sense for him to believe the current band of assassins who barely survive a world Templars practically own will pull a victory out of their ass against a First Civ human loathing consciousness. Even if Desmond survived Juno controlled him once through the use of First Civ tech to kill Lucy, right? She was intelligent enough to finish what the rest of her people couldn't and apparently saved the world. Good money would bet on her finding another way to control him again then order or influence him to commit suicide.
The ending just... left a pretty bad taste in my mouth. Oh, and what was with Vidic and the Abstergo building having absolutely NO countermeasures for Desmond using the Apple at all? That one scene completely trivialized that particular stage of the game. Undeniably pointless forcing the player to work his way up to Vidic when that was the end result.

Re-bought the game when the Microsoft Store had it for $25 and cleaned up the single player stuff. Took me about 42 hours for the Completionist achievement (Complete ALL progress tracker grid entries). I was wary of getting into the multiplayer stuff because the previous AC multiplayer experiences were really tense for me. Luckily Wolfpack mode is a cooperative mode that's right up my alley.
[quote name='Ink.So.Well.']Well... AC wasn't built on player choice being a main selling point of the IP nor did Ubisoft publicly make promises they hadn't intended on keeping in regards to the ending. That being said I am shocked a large majority of the fanbase seemingly couldn't care less. It's one thing as a fan to truly accept the lack of control you have in the creative process of a beloved franchise, but a whole other entirely to try and come up with a credible explanation for a what a blatant cop out this ending felt like.

If there was money selling the CE's of my AC games w/o selling the goodies I'm ready to do it.

Desmond's willingness to spend the last years of his life fighting a lesser evil only to accept a greater one down the line without batting an eyelash when he has a choice in the matter. I honestly thought like every assassin before him that fighting for freedom was worth any cost to him. Instead he suddenly couldn't handle the unpredictability of human nature, shut his brain down at the last second and bent over for Juno control. I mean... what the f*ck, eh?

I just got this game for Christmas and it's already pissing me off. I'm at the part where I have to free the Native American slaves and I keep failing. I also hate the one look and your dead system that Ubisoft made. If I can't get past this part then I'm going to trade this in at Game Stop.
