Okay so bnet keeps dropping me so I havent done my 1v1 placement yet so what have I been doing to pass the time in the beta? Getting achievements, I gotta say it's fun as shit but I'm a bit worried.
I've spent way too much time on achievements today as you can see
What I'm worried about are people in ladder games as soon as the game starts going "Achievements?" in all chat. I'm sure many of you are familiar with the concept on XBL for Halo where when they released achivements there were servers of people just lining up to die to give people easy achievements. I really don't want to have to deal with people begging me to let them kill 50 supply worht of units in 15 seconds for their meatgrinder or to fly a full dropship into their base.
It hasnt happened yet but I can almost hear the QQ already when you refuse to help someone get a cheap achievement and their rage echoes off the walls so badly that you can almost hear the high pitched voice.
I live in fear...
edit: I"m not editing out the name on my profile because it's shown so many times on my Stream already I find it a bit pointless.
|
what's the point isn't it all going to reset with the release of the game.
|
I haven't come across this yet, but if it does happen I'm sure it will be in the lower leagues.
|
I'm at 170 achievement points just from laddering and I can see why you are saying that. Would be very annoying.

I'm referring more towards post launch, and I"ve been doing it cuz my game has been so unstable I dont wanna get placed into silver with only 10 days to fix it since I'll probably just say "fuck that." and then people will trash talk me for being a sivler player.

You'd be surprised how bad the lower end of Diamond league was last time around, I mainly didn't ladder much last reset cuz I couldn't stand it I'm sure that at least at that level where you run into people who cheesed their way there and dont' have an overall understanding of the game it will be a problem as well.

Please take your name off of the picture before somebody tries to prove another point like what they did with Bashiok.

My thoughts, 13/33 games I played I got cheesed in some way or another.. ridiculous..
|
lol theres so many random achievements that I look them up after the match O_O
|
I am at 370 right now
Unfortunately I'm in a bet with a guy who has 490 D:

Hitler says:"And I would like to know if the people responsible for this have ever played a game in their entire lives...Probably Halo 3."
:3
|
I can't wait till kiddies start valuing their achievement score over actual ladder rank.

Got you beat raelcun :D
|
you want an achievement...go get the one where you need 4000 wins before beta ends
you will be worshiped
|
Yeah, I'll probably throw all my placement matches in release to get achievements and work my way back up in ladder later. Oh god, what has achievements turned me into TT
|
Raelcun, streaaaaaaaaaaam!
|
Shameless achievement whore, reporting in.

i did it a couple of hours ago... all legit and it didn't give me the achievement.
you can see the rep in here

they actually fight each other, and luckily it helps that they kill most of each other off so they give you a chance of building up a sizable army
|
i haven't got it yet, tried twice and failed T_T(getting double teamed sucks) but huameng has it
|
the only achievenment i need is to log on....
|
Personally I love achievements. Being I suck at SC2 these little things keep me going. I think it's a good thing for the casual fan.
Now I do understand the problem with people making games just to get them, but being achievements don't really mean shit I sort of file it under the "no harm, no foul" category.
|
You sir have a very irrational fear.
I'm pretty sure if you play in silver+ then what you are afraid of will never happen.
|
yeah idk, maybe its fun for lazy days...
anyone have a full list of the new achievements?

Well I managed to do it http://www.mediafire.com/?fnzzd5w2iwl originaly started with one similar to yours but it kept failing so I said EFF it lifted to the island and picked all zerg so PDD would rape their anti air and went mass air.
Gave me like medium hard very hard insane FFA achievements spammed the shit out of my real ID friends lol
EDIT:
has anyone gotten zerglot to work? It never works when I try it :/
|
am I the only one who thinks that "Team Hot Streak" is absolutely hilarious?
|
Go for the achievement of having the least achievements. See how that works out

Better still, pretend that you're cooperating, then backstab them for the win.

My brother would do this all the time in call of duty, I think it was call of duty, but the guy would ask him for free head shots to get an achievement and my brother would agree so the guy would run in front of him and be aiming and my brother would kill him. It was funny as crap when they'd fall for it over and over

I may get most of the achievements when I'm bored of ladder and need a break for a little while, just as a challenge to myself, though I know I won't ever get em all because I'm not going to play 2000 games as my offrace  I don't really care about the achievement points, I just hate the empty achievements sitting there calling out to me "HAHA I bet you can't get me" and I'm like "Yeah I can just watch!"

I feel bad for looking this much like an achievement whore, but I mainly play with friends when I ladder (2s, 3s, and customs), so when they aren't around I've taken to getting a lot of the achievements.
![[image loading]](http://i32.tinypic.com/1fftbd.jpg)
I've had around this many for the last couple days, since I eventually got bored of getting them when they only started to involve just winning obscene amounts of games against computers in varying ways.

I did the 7FFA just with Terran lifting off and massing banshee viking for when the second to last one dies.

I'm pretty sure he shopped out his name so it wouldn't be on the internet.
