 I have a great idea, what i want to tell you.
I personally really like this idea, so just read the post, i hope you can follow me.

There are many Achievements in the game, and it would be sure very great if you get for every complete Achievements something like a cheat. I mean like in James Bond Nightfire.

For example if you complete the Achievements : Through the Fire and Flames
Criteria: Survive massive explosive damage 100 times (damage > 50% health within 0.5 seconds).; then you are more resistant against explosiv ( just 10 % or so )

i have any ideas about that :
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Specialist
Criteria: Use only explosive weapons and win the round (4+ people)

If you complete that, you can reload explosive weapons more faster than normal
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Man On The Moon ( ONLY 00 AGENT )
Criteria: Get 750 kills with the Moonraker Laser

If you complete that you can use double Lasers
FOR ALL WEAPONS
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just a flesh wound
Criteria: Win a knife duel (10 times)

If you complete, you get a better knife or anything that ( or more resistant agains knife )
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Make my Mayday
Criteria: As Mayday get 50 headshots with the Cougar Magnum

If you complete, as Mayday your magnum have more damage or you get more ammo
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That's My Little Octopussy
Criteria: Kill a camper (red dot) 200 times

If you complete, you can kill camper with only 1 bullet or you can camp without you get red on the radar)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
or somethin like : kill 500 players with sniper.
if you complete that, your sniper have a longer zoom, or a bigger magazin.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and so on......


Then you have more challenge, plls would say : yeah i try this archivment, may i can get this "cheat". lets play i have a target ( in german you would say : ich habe ein ziel zum erreichen, deswegen spiel ich mehr GE:S, so irgendwie, Kraid kannst du das vieleicht übersetzen ^^ ) You know ?
And what do you think about that ? Great, or ?

"Upgrades" in mp are a no-go.
As you see, new players are already afraid of experienced players.
If you include things like these it will even worsen. The main thing about mp is that basically everyone should have the same chances.

But in general having some unlocks (alternate skins or even 'cheats' for sp) isn't unthinkable.

I don't see the point, this only serves to unbalance multiplayer in favour of giving incentive to grind for achievements. Not only that, it pretty much throws every aspect of GE:S that is faithful to the original out of the window.

Akimbo weapon upgrades? increased damage? increased zoom? extended mags? There's already a Goldeneye: Modern Warfare in production you know.

HAHAH yes sure

or antoher idea, if you find for example the dats in facility or cradle, you get a reward.
Well most of those idea are not so good for MP, but sure great for SP

While the above sentence might be true, there's allready a reward for completing achivements.
Any additional stuff which doesn't break the gameplay (e.g. player or weapon skins)
will have to be created first which needs time we rather use for completing our
content right now. There are still some more characters, props and textures needed.

Ahh yeah skins would be great or some development picture would be fine, or putting weapon in left hand.

I would like to see the "Hide Achieved" option for achievements to make things more organized.
poor example here

[[GE:S Com] DF Ank1]

what is that for an option ?

[coolDisguise]

It means you can select (as a filter setting) to only show achievements you haven't completed yet - so it's easier for you to see which achievements you want to try.

I would like to see the "Hide Achieved" option for achievements to make things more organized.
poor example here

Not possible thanks to Valve's broken and locked down VGUI code for the following menu elements: Server Browser, Achievement Menu, New Game Menu, Options Menu, and Mute Player Menu

All of these need an extreme overhaul but my hands are tied to only moving shit around with the .res files. No functionality can be added/removed.

In the future, most VGUI elements (including the achievement menu) will be redone completely by myself, but it will take a lot of work to get to that point.
