Vampiric Demon Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Hi all, A big game like this is bound to have glitches so therefore this thread where we can post (minor) glitches for others to enjoy/worry about. So if you encounter a glitch post them here. As for me I have encountered 2 glitches so far (I'm at about 50%): The first is in an assassin's contract where you have to kill a man named Juan Garcia in Matanzas. At some point he's at a dock where I sank the ship he was supposed to go on (I think) resulting in him being marked to kill but no longer present at the dock. Only the mark floats in mid air. The second is that a treasure I found (a harpoon upgrade) didn't register as being found even though I could (and have bought) the harpoon upgrade. They might screw me out on the 100% at this save. So I hope others will be luckier or able to avoid them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lifearmor Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Losing hidden blades and blowpipe after doing one of Diving Bell side missions. Highly recommended to clear the storyline missions first. Also possibly cos of previous bug, my crew can no longer sing shanties on the ship.

Enlightened 1 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Nothing to report only grief I have is I'm having too good a time as an assassin/pirate the game itself is amazing :dance:my favourite sea fights are back too:applause: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Governor Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Got a problem with collectibles too. A viewpoint in havana didn't register. At first, i just told myself it would be patched eventually, but i just couldn't get it off my mind, and finally started over (at 50%). I can't be sure it would have interfered with the 100%, but it's likely. I'd recommend doing back up saves every now and then, and, as i'm doing now, going through all viewpoints/collectibles in an area in one go.

CaptainNick Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 I had one glitch at the beginning when I dropped onto a bottle with a letter in it and the bottle dissapeard and I couldn't get it anymore. I was able to quit before the game saved so everything ended up fine. But if I didn't I would have had 1 bottle I could never get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gtasthehunter Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 (edited) I lost mine on my last diving bell mission at the Kabah ruins. I'm about to start the 1st diving bell mission, know if you did anything different then with the others? And i think another glitch happen to me shown in video and details in description!

And i think another glitch happen to me shown in video and details in description! Nope, can't think of anything. But now that I think back on it, it may not have been after the Shrine db mission that I got hit. It was after that one that I noticed it, but I did them all in a row so it could have been sooner. Sorry I can't be more helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems te be the case with all people who had this glitch. I did all the diving bell missions and haven't finished the story yet and did not run into that glitch.

This isn't ACIII, you don't need to 100% the whole game, just all of the major story missions.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting 100% synchronisation is part of the abstergo challenges, which you need to complete in order to unlock employee of the month trophy, and ultimately, the platinum. "..."

"..." You only need 25 Abstergo challenges to get the Employee of the Month trophy, and there are 25 easy/easier ones to get. I have the trophy already and am only on sequence 6. So just worry about the main missions to get 100% synchronization on. No sense in doing more than you need to. As far as glitches go, I encountered one at the end of the final memory in sequence 3. [spoiler=kjfkdjka] After tailing the ship, you're instructed on how to avoid mortar fire, and after that, you're required to sink 8 ships. After sinking the 8 ships a cutscene should play. If the final item under the spoiler tag doesn't occur, you may have to replay the memory like I did.

Deza Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I don't know if this is a glitch, but - I have done all but one assassination contract - and I can see it should be in Havana - but when I go there, it disappears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Fly Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I think "Roped In" might be a glitchy trophy. I had to complete something like 15 air assassinations from a swinging rope before it unlocked (the requirement is 5). I was starting to depress. Glad I got it finally !

Barrndawg Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I have a glitch on my map. In the southwestern part of the map, on my map it shows a Naval Convoy. I went to sail to it, and it was just the white R floating above the water and no ships. So I fast traveled to an island close to it and went back to see if it spawned. Well it didn't spawn but a Royal Convoy did. I blew it up, took the loot and fast traveled to the same spot I went last time. Went back and the Royal Convoy was there again. Needless to say, I kept repeating the fast travel enough times to complete the Abstergo challenge of be in possession of 100,000 reales. I just beat the game about 20 minutes ago, and I went into free-roam and the Royal Convoy is still showing up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vampiric Demon Posted November 9, 2013 Author Share Posted November 9, 2013 So you're one of the lucky few who got a glitch in their favour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrndawg Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 So you're one of the lucky few who got a glitch in their favour? Yea. I had a lot of trouble finding the Royal Convoy. It was the last one I needed for Sharing Is Caring. Now it won't leave my map at all. Same spot every single day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyruz13 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Got Glitch... My Havana 2 assassin contract does't pop up.. also, i have redeemed the Uplay sword, but unable to claimed as well.. sigh~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainNick Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 A glitch for the 100% objectives in Vainglorious Bastards (sequence 8 mission 2). The objective for ramming the ship might not register. Not sure what's causing it, but I've seen 2 other people who had it and like me they fully upgraded the ship and defeated all legendary ships which gains a ramming ability. My guess is that gaining that ability *might* have something to do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
