New Assassin's Creed 2 achievements arriving with future DLC

Today has seen the release of the first set of downloadable content for Assassin’s Creed 2 - titled: Battle of Forli - however, Ubisoft has confirmed that no new achievements will be added to Assassin’s Creed 2... or at least not yet.

When questioned about the inclusion of achievements, Ubisoft replied via their Twitter feed that “unfortunately for achievement hunters, there's none in this one,” suggesting that there will be additional achievements for future downloadable content.

Are you disappointed by the lack of achievements or do you think the content is better off without them? Leave us a comment with your thoughts.

As much as I love the game, no achievements means no purchase for me. There are too many other great games that deserve my attention.

I will probably buy this dlc I love the game but no achivments that's what dissapoints me every dlc and game should have them I love achivements
#5 Mako  Console Guide Pro App 19:21 28 Jan 2010 GMT  
It really takes away from the game when acheivements are not combined in the DLC. So for me this went from a must buy to I'll spend my money on something else.

No new achievements? That's BULLSH%#T! I was going to buy it until I heard there wasn't any! WTF!!!

Y is their so much about gamer score?! You should be happy that their dlc . If you love video games , the gamer score would not matter.
#12 BLITZ Of War  Console Guide Pro App 16:39 29 Jan 2010 GMT  
I agree with #11 you should be satisfied with the game not the acheivements itself it seems like gaming has just become all about bragging rights and acheivement
#13 Penguino 64  Console Guide Pro App 23:55 29 Jan 2010 GMT  
To number 12.. No ***** Sherlock video games have always been about who's better than who! Gamer score is just one more way to compete with friends plus it makes you do side quest or what not that you might not have done if there was no reward that comes along with it
#14 phantomstriker9  Console Guide Pro App 09:01 30 Jan 2010 GMT  
I have to say that's a bit dissapointing seen as it's such a good game but really it won't matter if u like the game then u probaly will get this

but I agree with #12,#11 gaming has pretty much turned into " ha i have more gamerscore" I think it's all pointless gameing was made for fun not to flame over who's better
" u win some u lose some" I alws say

I wish companies would quit making games with achievements. I mean really people, you will pass up playing a good game or DLC if there aren't achievements. If that's the case then you guys are not gamers and could care less about a gaming. I know your type, playing crap games and kids games just to boost your gamerscore. It's pathetic. To the guy trying to defend this by mentioning side quests etc, if people like the game then they will play all of it again and again. Look at MW2 for example, there are no multiplayer achievements but right now that is what everyone is playing because they enjoy it. There are games I have 100% completion for them and I still play them because I enjoy the story and gameplay. Gaming isn't about who has a higher gamerscore it's about takinng you into the game world and enjoying it. For you achievement hunters out there, go find another hobby.

True that man , I still play elder scrolls

To #15 I enjoy mw2 but think of this if there were no leaderboards I gurantee one third of the people playing would quit leaderboards= achievements I agree though too many achievement whores. Just like the guy I saw online with a 400,000 + gamerscore dude must have no life
#18 MicroCool  Console Guide Pro App 19:04 01 Feb 2010 GMT  
@17
Leaderboards is not the reason why people play, maybe for some but very few. Friends like to join up with their friends and just play the game and talk trash etc. They play because they enjoy the game. Taking away leaderboards would not make anyone stop playing the game. Also, when they release more map packs there probably won't be any achievements unless they added more spec ops, but millions will still buy the DLC if it didn't have achievements because it's a blast to play online. The only ones that wouldn't download it are the achievement whores out there. They will be busy buying kid games to keep boosting their gamerscore.

@#13 No offence but your not a real gamer if you feel that way. Gaming used to never be about who was better or whatever, however people like you have turned gaming into that. Gaming used to be about having fun it wasn't " dude the only reason I am playing this is because I need one more acheivement" I have been gaming since I could walk and gaming was never about any of that stuff.
