Here is a link for 1 month membership:

I believe that you can also get a free 7 day trial as well.
Thanks. Why doesn't this show on my actual box? Annoying.

It only shows the 3 month and a year. Doesn't show a month on mine.

Really enjoying the game so far. Can't get enough of the clothes stores and selfies, feels so immersive. I mainly play the side missions and haven't advanced through the main ones much which says a lot about the world of this game.

Was dreading using the jumper at first especially as the game really seemed to be forcing it down the player's throat. Now I use the jumper and the quadcopter in conjunction with one another all the time - the former to infiltrate, the latter for recon and it feels great (in fact I'd argue that once you get the quadcopter cameras are pretty much useless) Some of the climbing/hacking puzzles are really fun and inventive especially the painting missions.

Can't wait to go online and get stuck in co op.

Enjoying this game too. It doesn't hold your hand when it comes to puzzles which is a nice change. You'll be scratching your head trying to work out how to reach a certain item so you have to try and get creative. This creativity extends to the combat too. I'm looking forward to unlocking more abilities to find new ways of doing things.

Some improvements could be made to the controls. I don't like how you have to press and hold the left stick to run. It's too cumbersome. They should change it to allowing you to run for a short time just by pressing the stick once. Also I can't get it in my head that it's pressing the swipe pad for the map and the Options button for your phone. The amount of times I keep looking at my map by mistake!

Graphics wise this also looks better than the first game. San Francisco is a beautiful environment to drive about in.

Indeed. And there are times when I do some things with my jumper to solve the puzzle that I'm not sure Ubisoft intended the player to do.


I'm addicted to the selfie missions lol It's funny when I initially opened up the scout missions I thought "oh god , a long checklist of boring chores to do" but the way they made it so that the more pictures you take unlocks certain poses was very clever. I now spend several minutes just trying to get the perfect shot.

So I went for it and I'm glad a purchased it it's a fantastic game, the world is so alive it has to be one if not the best active game world, it's like every npc is living their life.

It's so much fun just watching random scenarios

The bounty hunters are overpowered.
I bit down and went online and it was me and another player and the police at 3 stars all chasing down this poor bloke, he never stood a chance. The police don't need help lol - bounties should be one on one. Wouldn't be surprised if Ubisoft they patch it. Thank goodness I can't be hacked.



Oh, and car on demand is useless. Spawns like 200 metres away.

Yeh I've noticed the car on demand is pretty dumb, I'll only use it if it's gone really quiet in the area, I like my bikes in this game though.

Found this very hard at first but slowly getting the hang of it. Love the drone, makes things a little bit easier.

Do the Driver missions end? I'm just trying to 100% the game but if they keep popping up then I'll leave them.

How can you 100% the game when there is no progress tracker?


The racing in this game is appalling. The only racing I like is the sailboats as that requires a degree of strategy ratehr than pad mashing with appalling car mechanics.

A game doesn't need a tracker to 100% it I'll know when I have done everything, still if anyone knows if the Driver missions end I can't even find it on google

So you're going to use YouTube to find out? Because that's the only way seeing as most of the side missions have to be discovered...

The orange ones end but the green ones are infinite.


Just completed my first successful online hack, and it was my first attempt too! The trick is to hide in the bushes and not in plain sight - seeing as the game highlights all potential hackers as purple which is kind of silly. The guy was flailing his arms as he ran trying to find me.

Ok thanks, when I enjoy a game like this I want to scavenge everything and do everything in the campaign, I have done every side mission and scout X location got all the research keys, luckily enough I had found every scout X location and side mission without help after checking how many there was I had already done them all.

Just the collectables to do I'm sure I have one or two missing, oh and I'll finish of those orange missions then

This is a fun game but not without its glitches (this is Ubisoft after all). My favourite so far has been calling an elevator and unexpectedly stepping out into oblivion when the doors opened! Had to restart the mission to get an actual elevator back

I got this last week after swapping Rise of the Tomb Raider for it & I love it. I've only completed the first 3 main chapters/missions as I've mostly been doing side missions, hacks & bounties.

Regarding the upgrades, some aren't available until you find something even though you have enough points (can't remember what it's called that you need to find) Are some of these unavailable until you make progress in the game? I've went to a couple of the locations on the map, hunted high & low with my jumper & drone but can't find them.

No. It doesn't lock skill points behind progression. The skill tree will tell you what area the green skill points are in. You need to then use your eagle vision to find them.

It's cool, I managed to get the key data (the word I couldn't remember) It was the one at the boat house place in the far north. I kept searching around where the boats were and hacked into a computer to look into someone's house. I thought it was there but glitches but I found it when I was walking away on top of the place with the motorbikes on the roof. I love the one to send in gangs to take care of everyone & then you just go in without any hassle.

Enjoying this far more than I thought I would, feel guilty now for waiting for a sale price (ok that's a lie)

Just started this a few hours ago. San Francisco is already a much more engaging, beautiful, interesting and dynamic playground than Chicago.

Just completed this this evening and got the platinum trophy. Huge improvement over the original in every way. An overlooked gem in my opinion. The thinking man's GTA as it's not all shooty shooty bang bang in a wonderfully realised city but it has some tricky puzzles with the hacking element too. It's pretty challenging too. You'll find yourself under threat fairly often even if you're a third person shooter veteran. My game of the year.
