The Horse Exploit on the Baron and the Funny Scene Afterwards

The horse exploit is a broken timeline exploit in Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. You may have noticed some things in the game like how it keeps track of how much ammo your ranged weapons have, and also when you replay memories you seem to have a different weapon equipped. It's because the game keeps track of these things when it auto saves.
The horse exploit allows you to start the checkpoint of the mission on a horse. To do this get on a horse when you have to assassinate the Baron and have it auto save (it auto saves when you fail the five minute full synchronization). Then get detected to restart from the last checkpoint and you will appear on a horse! I show a blitz using the horse. This isn't the fastest possible assassination, just an example. It might be possible to do a super fast blitz by using a ranged weapon on the horse since you are able to aim above the stairs while riding it. However I haven't been able to kill the Baron like that, especially since it's hard to aim manually while on the horse. If it is possible the Baron can be killed in just a few seconds.
I also show something funny afterwards. The hostage can have a heavy or long weapon in her during the scene after the assassination. First distract the Baron with a smoke bomb or money, then equip the weapon, hold down the
armed hand button, call assassin recruits or arrow storm, then let go of the armed hand button right before the Baron dies. You'll likely hear the sound of the weapon hitting someone when this works. Make sure the hostage is between you two or you might accidentally throw the weapon at the Baron. Now enjoy the hilarity with a whole scene of an impaled character. Afterwards the weapon falls to the ground when she disappears.

Haha!

Say, could you use "broken timeline" for other things, like if you were swimming or had parachute out when it auto-saved?

[aurllcooljay]

@AKheon I don't think the game would take those things into consideration when saving. It probably does for horses because of times when you start a mission on a horse (like shortly after the beginning of the Viana mission near the end of the game). I tried saving on a horse in AC1 and 2, but it didn't seem to work.
