SPRINGBOARDS IN ASSASSIN'S CREED II

IN AC2 DLC: BONFIRE OF THE VANITIES SPRINGBOARDS WERE INTRODUCED, NEVER TO BE SEEN AGAIN. THESE SPRINGBOARDS ARE EXCLUSIVE TO THE OLTRARNO DISTRICT IN FLORENCE.
PS4 Gameplay (The Ezio Collection)

[@JudgeFudge57]

I have over 150 hrs on this game across several platforms over the years and never did I know this was a thing.

[@TheArmskillerV2]

I believe it is accessible during/after Bonfire of the Vanities DLC.

[@akaricamacho2205]

Same brah

[@Arkenway]

I believe that this is just a thing the devs whipped up eal quick to justify selling Battle of Forli and Bonfire of Vanities as DLC when it's clear that they were supposed to be in the game at first...

[@VirginVigan]

Me neither.. I'm sitting right here in front of my screen and I'm like WTF

[@pranaygupta8055]

Same but 150h hrs , i have like 30 or so 😅

[@NiCoNiCoNiCola]

Ezio is now officially a Sonic the Hedgehog character

[@joakimberg7897]

No

[@akealalawad8898]

Well the actor for Ezio and Sonic is the same. (Roger Craig Smith)

[@BatMane95]

Well he was(somehow)kidnapped by Dr. Eggman in the 2nd Twitter Takeover, so that checks out.

This was part of the bonfire of the vanities dlc. Its only in the south side of florence that the dlc opens up.

[@phillyphil1690]

It was a neat concept. Too bad that's the only place it's used.

[@connordervoncyberlifegesen8529]

@@phillyphil1690 and it’s part of a horrible DLC that was basically useless

[@unc54]

@@connordervoncyberlifegesen8529 It's not bad but it's a very weird fit pacing-wise. Also it's very clearly original material that was cut and repackaged as DLC

[@simpostor_]

Wasn't this DLC available for consoles only? Ive played all the games up till 3 on PC and as far as I remember some of them were exclusive

[@sho829]

​@@unc54yeah, but if you think about the story it doesn't make sense. At all

[@Khosmik]

Just the sound of running on the roof tiles *NOSTALGIA*

[@petrnovak5226]

I have hundreds of hours on this damn game since it’s release and not once have I seen or used these

[@acedarippa8643]

you need the bonfire of the vanitis dlc

[@jonathanpilcher337]

​@@acedarippa8643well I have it via the ezio collection, and I can only assume he does as well, but I think these springboards are just kinda obscure cuz I never knew about them either. Tbh I don't recall ever parkouring much on the south side of florence. Maybe bc of how it's laid out there's just not much of a reason to

[@chrismildon7512]

Love these. Accentuates the danger of parkour

[@coreymckinney7423]

I’ve played this came since release, never ever knew this was a thing

[@CinematicSeriesGaming]

I wonder why Ubisoft never used this idea in different games. It's quite cool.

[@kaitodelax4158]

Not realistic at all. First, How could the roofs of the houses not be destroyed when Ezio ran that fast? Second, jump and land that hard without breaking the roof?

[@jonathanpilcher337]

Prolly cuz it's too goofy

[@matthewkendrick8280]

Ah yes, the springboard. That one thing in that one corner of one map from that one boring (but historically interesting) dlc that doesn’t work half the time.

[@juliangabrieltrinidad1135]

Am I the only one who read it as "Spongebob" as the title? 😅

[@ezio-earle3973]

The DLC also a special thing when you want to see the map you will notice that the map will have some sort of lag(not an error from the game) that kind of delays the time of the map to be displayed to you my english is broken but this is the least that i can say

[@OneoftheCaesars]

Her I am. Calling myself a master assassin to all my friends since the first game. Never knew about this.

[@jimpy3832]

Wish they would've brought this over to brotherhood

[@Kevin-tl1zs]

Why did they remove such a cool feature from the brotherhood onwards ?

Ezio can make Super Jumps in South Florence South of the Arno! 👍

[@jess9545]

thank youu! 🙏

[@IlMemetor72]

Woah!

[@zokilauda]

I finished this game about four years ago, but to be honest I never really noticed this

[@corvotheblack9749]

And I just bought the Ezio Collection lol. Sweet deal too

[@whoopswheresmythribble]

WaAUuGhHh! 😂😂😂

[@S3V1ET_N1NJA]

any tips of parkouring off bulidings but climbing below? is it always the kix of low profile climb with the mixes of drops and grabs? i would also add the fact that in AC4/AC3 you cannot tackle enemies when your ontop of a small space. like a ledge or post

[@usmanqureshi8941]

It's a lot easier to do it unconventionally, like tackling an NPC, or punching off a building (you fall straight down). In Brotherhood you can also use the tackle option if your horse is near and Ezio jumps right off of it. That being said, you can use the same techniques to climb and descend. Find the parkour starters and take them in reverse, or eject to a lower beam. AC1 also has the vault animation which is nice.

[@washedupfries]

I'm so glad they decided to add spring boards into the game only for us to never use them

[@dinglebord]

Imagine these in AC Nexus

[@ZEROX619XX]

WHAT?! iv played tgis game for over 10 years and never knew this! WHAT THE FUCK!

[@harryrupam01]

I never seen this when I originally played in 2009. Is it new? 🤔

[@mistawhite7005]

half the time the mf things don’t even work and ezios ends up just jumping off it like a normal post

[@ezhilramanan4615]

is it only me who didn't notice this shit existed?

[@actuallystealthy]

If they had more spread across cities it would've been better

[@jackskywalker8086]

BOUNCE PAD!!!

[@YellowxCar]

How? When i sprint to it ezio fall not jumping

[@cutecell2798]

Just for this you need to buy a DLC? Or is it a secret sequence that has springboards feature?

[@gameking4984]

It’s two sequences and this move is a part of it It’s not used much though in the actual dlc only a couple of times The dlc is included in the ps4 remake of the game

[@kyle2kyletroii]

how do you use it

WAIT THIS IS A THING????

[@nicolobraghini1546]

Is this the remastered game? It doesn't look so colorful on my PC. Btw according to rumours AC Mirage should have these elements that improve the parkour!

[@Sanker1]

real

[@jcmee91]

I don't remember these....

[@assassinssanctuary]

neither do i.

[@FryzuxD]

People say they were cool. I always found them odd. Out of place

[@PlutoOuttaHere.]

These completely ruined momentum in parkour, the whole story of AC2 really takes a dip once you reach Forli for the second time

[@aaronm.885]

Was it just me or were these horribly inconsistent?

[@minecraftpro110]
