Patch notes



Fixed: Situation specific bugs

* Glyph
After the player has resolved a glyph (when the unlock code message appears), if the player presses A and B (for 360, X and O on PS3) repeatedly and quickly, the video will appear in full screen, and he will get stuck in "the truth menu".
* Fast Travel
Some feedback states that Ezio loses the ability to interact with the fast travel stations.
* Free roaming/Parkour
In extremely rare occasions a bug allows Ezio to walk on air.
* Auditore Cape
When first equipping or re-equipping the Auditore cape, users in the Villa become notorious even if the cape description says otherwise.
* Altair's armour
While wearing Altair's armour the game crashes when performing multiple consecutive double assassinations.
* Toscana
The game occasionally crashes if the player dies in Toscana, the player is stuck in the animus loading screen.
* Water
Ezio and NPCs may get stuck beneath map if pushed in water.
* Animus Loading Screen
There were reports of the game crashing while the player is in the Animus loading screen

The game froze after completing the mission and following certain steps.
* Sequence 06 Mission 02
An extremely rare issue could make the game freeze while Ezio is fighting the guards.
* Sequence 07 Mission 02
Sometimes the civilians knocked down by Rosa could "float".
* Sequence 07 Mission 07
When the user is in an open conflict, under specific situations the game crashed.

Is 5.1 LPCM support across the board or specific to one console?

[BalekFekete]

I was hoping for the ability to replay specific memory sequences associated with the storyline, as I missed the Flyswatter trophy the first time through.

Only blessing is the game is still a riot the second time through and you don't have to feel the need to do all the side missions.

Bought this to play on strong reviews and UBI moving into Toronto. Still NIB gotta finish Uncharted 2

Is 5.1 LPCM support across the board or specific to one console?

Pretty sure that's PS3 only. 360 only does 5.1 through DD.
