	[[Assassin's Creed 2]] makes use of [[Diegetically Outstanding Features]] in the form of bird droppings to convey where the Ezio can make ''Leaps of Faith'' actions, long falls that safely end in carts filled with hay or leaves (note that these are not examples of the [[Leap of Faith]] pattern since players know beforehand that they are safe to do). Birds are typically also located near these places, but the birds also act as [[Diegetically Outstanding Features]] for showing where next to go in some [[Optional Goals]], such as finding tombs.

−	Another example of [[Diegetically Outstanding Features]] are the viewpoints which are located on many of the tallest buildings in the game world. These, which are indicated by Eagles either perching on the spot or circling above them, allow the player to update the game map with new marker. Since there is a certain challenge to reach them, and the game keeps track of how many one has found, the unlocking of marker that help [[Navigation]] is also [[Optional Goals]]. The viewpoints always have ''Leap of Faith'' actions associated with them, so that players have access to [[Quick Returns]].	+	Another example of [[Diegetically Outstanding Features]] are the viewpoints which are located on many of the tallest buildings in the game world.
