About the Drachen armor..

So, I know that you obtain this if you've pre-ordered the game, but the wiki says you also get it if you own the "Da Vinci Disappearance" DLC. Well, I've played the disappearance DLC, (I didn't exactly buy it though, I got it off Uplay for free) and it's not there. Do I need to 100% sync or something?

Well, I thought initially that you get this outfit with Leonardo's DLC but I realized that I just have the special edition and it was included. It must be that only the consoles get this outfit with the DLC. So far I think the only way to get this outfit on PC is by 'stealing' (unlocking) it from someone else's save file, just like the Medici and Venitian capes.

oh, well that's a shame.. Say, does anyone feel like posting copies of their save files? Specifically, people who pre ordered this game? No reason.

It should be by default already available for you. Hit the escape button to get to your options and look for "inventory" and then "outfits" it should be equipable right from the early chapters!

If you are still struggling let me know I can create a save for you with it, if that will help :)

yeah it's not there, believe me. I own all the other outfits, like the auditore & borgia capes, the Uplay purchased ones, and desmond.

I have this save file (2 Templar Lairs included) but it doesn't have any achievements, if you care about this stuff.

I don't mind.

Hmm. I uninstalled my client on accident a while ago and Malwarebytes doesn't trust any client site I go to, and I trust Malwarebytes. Perhaps you could send it again without the utorrent package?

[BloodyMares]

What utorrent package? All I have the link to is the file OPTIONS that goes into the save folder. Mega is a safe cloud file storage, nothing to worry about.

oh, I thought it was a torrent file. Silly me.

EDIT: Could you give me the directory in which brotherhood saves are stored? I swear, Ubisoft cannot decide on where to store them for all games, there's like 3 folders dedicated to saving progress in Ubisoft games.

[BloodyMares]

Sure. It's 'C:\Users\>You<\Saved Games\Assassin's Creed Brotherhood\SAVES"
Just replace the OPTIONS file with the new one. Your in-game progress won't be affected but the new stuff should be available.

wow, thanks a bunch. It worked. Now, if you don't mind me asking, can you unlock altair's outfit in revelations the same way?

[BloodyMares]

Yup. This strategy works for any game of the Ezio trilogy (didn't test it with AC3/onwards). Although it's sometimes tricky figuring out which save file stores the data.

However, there's a legit way to obtain it. Just buy the Lost Archive DLC, it has a nice story/challenge and includes all of the pre-order bonuses as well as eliminates the need to collect Animus Fragments to unlock Desmond's journey.

[Merteno]

I replaced the OPTIONS file but i still don't have anything new.

This is my first time ever going to "discussion" part on steam, and I would like to say thank you very much. It worked.
