I got a good deal on the game on the gamestop sale, but that kills the Steam DLC sales.
Picked up ACII for $4.99......all because of this thread. I don't normally pay attention to the store, opting to just log right into my Steam library.
So Kaotik, Steam owes you another referral fee (and I know I'm not the first!).
I got AC2, Brotherhood and Revelations. Only tried AC2 so far. I didn't have any trouble getting the 360 controller to sync, but the buttons are bound differently than the default on the 360/PS3, and the lack of calling the buttons by their name makes it really hard to rebind things properly. I mean, wtf does binding Button 0 to Feet even mean? It definitely could have been improved in that area, but for $5, I'm not too bothered by it.
Is that only for AC2 or for all of them? I don't want to spend 15 minutes trying to figure out which buttons do what to get them properly mapped in every game.i should clarify, that the wireless will "work" but is all jacked up. apparently the triggers cant be mapped or something. there is a thread in the steam forums about it. i dont recall the details offhand, just that it was easy enough to correct and mind-boggling that ubi never patched it. if you do the community fix or use a wired controller, the buttons all work correctly and matches up to what the game shows onscreen.

What a monstrous pain in the ass. Glad I already played through AC2 a few times on PS3. I only picked it up cause it was $5 and why not?My understanding is that it's for AC and ACII. Ubi just didn't map them correctly. I believe that after ACII, Ubi finally got off their asses and fixed things. I know the rumble feature doesn't work in AC and ACII, nor the triggers.
It's all jacked up when you first connect a wireless controller. X button isn't X button, Y isn't Y, etc. You have to go into settings and map correctly. And you still can't get the triggers to work. But the bumpers work, so I use those instead.
However, I haven't looked at the solution posted in the Steam forums, so maybe there is a better solution there. All I did was manually set up everything in the controller configuration area of the game.
yeah, thats the issue by default with the wireless controller. there's a couple files you can use to correct it, keep a wired 360 plugged in or just use the wired 360 instead and its all good. if not, the controls make no sense without fiddling with them. even then the kb/m controls never show onscreen in the tips so unless you memorize the mappings, kb/m is a pita. it wasnt worth my effort especially since i couldnt turn off acceleration. having played ac1 and some of ac2 on ps3 before, the gamepad controls came back to me pretty quick.My understanding is that it's for AC and ACII.
