Picked this up last night and spent a good 5 hours on it.

Ive been following the build of this from start to finish and i must say it certainly does live up to the expectations so far. I loved assassins creed 1 but i was like everyone else put off by the reptitive missions. Pick pocket, interrogate, eavesdrop & finally assassinate repeat, repeat, repeat.

Graphically its better, the story is really drawing me in, the gameplay is awesome as always & finally the missions/side missions are really broad. This game will take a while to complete.

I got board of forza 3 pretty quick, i finished codmw2 in about 4 hours and it will probably collect dust now but i can see this one taking away a big chunk of my free time.

I recommend this to anyone who enjoyed the gameplay of the first.

It gets my vote for GOTY

Yeah I'm already on level 50 in Forza 3, so that's all the winnable cars gotten. Besides modding a few select cars to crazy lengths, there's not much else to do. I don't like the amount of 'ranked' races where in a car has to be a certain class, or have a certain amount of horse power... takes the fun out of it...

Assassins Creed 1 was way too repetative, I gave it up pretty damn quickly. I think I'll have a look into this one though...

Assassin's Creed 2 has won me over.... been up until late playing it and had it 2 days.... the fact that you can assassinate from hiding spots, over ledges, jump and from water is just awesome.... adds a bit more to it as you can come from nearly any angle...

I just realised... This game would be sweet if there was a level where the reminiscing machine (so dubbed by me... just then...) malfunctioned and the guy woke up with the ancient assassins skills and went on a rampage in a hoodie in the city...

But that's probably not gunna happen...

or i could just play GTA

Ezio/desmond would lose in a gta world. Some thug would shoot him dead.

Speaking of shooting i just picked up a small pistol.

How funny is the guy who comes up to you and starts playing his little guitar and sings to you.

we could base it in a real sorta world where not everyone has guns...? :)

haha count me in, and im sure with his awesome assassin skills, he could kill the gun toting thugs with anything he sees, a stone? a traffic cone perhaps?

Non firearms have their advantages. Bullets can be traced, arrows can't. Guns make noise, arrows don't. Bullets cause excruciating pain, so do arrows. :)

.22 pistol? Sorry, I'm a bit of a fan of my guns. Looking at getting a Sako .243 high powered rifle in Jan sometime. :)

However, I agree AC was a bit rinse and repeat, can't wait to get #2 on PS3, the first was pretty cool!

Starpicket? Brick? Screwdriver? Turbo compressor? A handful of wheelnuts? Bag of salt & vinegar chips? Fluro bulb?

Omg apparently I am replying in ass...

anyway, if batman can do it so can Ezio! Tell you what.... every time i see one of the couriers I always stop what I am doing to chase him like a leprechaun...

    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.
