Ah, ok, then you need to use the REPEAT argument to repeat the alignment
at = and /* throughout the line.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun fluca1978/align-assignments (beg end)
  (interactive "r")
  (align-regexp beg end "\\(\\s-*\\)\\(?:=\\|/\\*\\)" 1 nil t))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

This aligns

a = 10; /* 10 is the inital value */
veryLongVariableName = ( a + 2 ); /* should start two more from a */

to

a                    = 10;        /* 10 is the inital value */
veryLongVariableName = ( a + 2 ); /* should start two more from a */

Bye,
