OFFICIAL Achievement Discussion

<< < (8/28) > >>

Sergeant Kelly:
I actually agree with disabling or severely lessening achievement progress on LTK servers. Sure, it's illogical, but it makes getting them much more fun.

I felt like the progress was wasted when I got two 50 kill camping streaks and accidentally unlocked two PP7 achievements. (That was an awesome game, btw.)

The Beatles pwn j00!:
If many of you are against disabling achievement progress on LTK, then why not just make a separate identical list of achievements for LTK mode? Perhaps modifying them a little to make them better suit the LTK mode?

Because really, LTK is so extreme (1 shot kills) compared to the others, that making it have it's own achievement list is necessary, since so many achievements are rendered nearly pointless within it. Either that, or get rid of achievements altogether.

killermonkey:
Man you are seriously way too extreme right now.
You do realize you can easily backup your achievements BEFORE joining an LTK server?
Just take your gamestate.txt file, copy and past somewhere, instant backup.

Start GE:S
Play LTK
Quit GE:S

Copy and paste your backup back into gesource and blammo, no wasted achievements.

If this is too much work for you to do in order to maintain your pristine accomplishments, then I am sorry. Maybe a good fix will come upon me prior to the 3.1 patch, but no promises till then. Just enjoy the damn game.

@Storm101: You will have to reachieve the secret/00 agent ones that you already got, they will still be visible on your achievement screen, but you will have to go through and earn the extra kills to get it "again"

Ruone Delacroix:
Any word of the achievements we suggested? I'm trying to think of one for the D5K.

The Beatles pwn j00!:
Perhaps I am being too extreme. But that's usually how I like to have fun with my games. Taking them quite seriously. Sometimes I like gaming competitively. I like being rewarded for being good at something.

But these achievements aren't doing that. Some spawn killing lucky LTK nub shouldn't have the satisfaction of "achieving" any of them. Because they DIDN'T kill 100 people with the Sniper Rifle... they killed 100 people with a ZOOMING GOLDEN GUN in disguise.

That's all fine. No big deal. But if anyone ever dares brag about them in seriousness, I will give them an endless ear full. And rightly so.

I no longer care about the "achievements". There's no reason for me to try and get any of them. I wasn't expecting any when the BETA came out, so just as well. I'm quite content with the game itself (except the constant stream of Golden Guns and Gold/Silver PP7s. I solve this problem by simply leaving the game. Ugh. But I believe you said you are fixing this problem on the upcoming patch, so I look forward to that).

So I suppose I'm done with this thread, and shall not come back to it, for it no longer exists to me. Otherwise I will essentially be flaming it every post from now on.

When it comes to things like this I do indeed become quite serious (just take a look at my Youtube page... link in signature :)), even if it is quite trivial. I apologize for any awkwardness or tension I may have caused. Please be tolerable of who I am. I AM indeed chemically imbalanced. :)
