Q: My "notoriety"/Templar Awareness keeps going up. Why?

A: Your "notoriety" now goes up for a lot more things. It goes up for everything you buy, as well as a 25% increase for renovating shops.

Q: Where are the posters to remove Templar Awareness?

A: No more posters this time.

Q: Can you still explore and do side stuff after the story is completed?

A: Yes, of course.

Q: I have all these bomb ingredients, when can I start crafting bombs?

A: Sequence 3. Keep playing.

Q: What happens when I fail Den Defense?

A: Failing Den Defense means the Templar Den is recaptured. You will have to kill the Templar Captain and climb the tower all over again.

Q: Any Glyphs/Rifts to find and related puzzles to solve again?

A: Nope, not this time.

Q: I have the Vlad DLC, but how do I play it and get the sword?

A: The mission will be available in Sequence 3. Look for the cross symbol on your full map.

Q: Are there any other places to explore? Any other areas?

A: As far as Constantinople goes, what you see is what you get with the map. In Sequence 7 however, you do go to another area for a time.

Q: Where are the horses?

A: Gone.

Q: What purpose do the books serve?

A: They're like the paintings from previous games in that you can look at them and get a little info from them. Find them in the study of the main HQ.

Q: I have 11/12 recruits for the Assassin guild challenge but I have max recruits! What gives?

A: The first recruit was given to you and doesn't count. Kill one off or make one the assassin representative of a city in Mediterranean Defense to free up a spot.

Q: For the Mercenaries Guild, I keep using my throwing knives but I am not getting the "Kill an enemy using a thrown weapon" challenge! Why?

A: Because it's not what they call a "thrown weapon". That means a weapon like an axe or a spear. Take one of these from an Almogavar or a Varangian and have Ezio hold it. Lock onto a distant enemy and hold Square/X, then let go and he should throw it. Do this on five enemies to get it.
