while not the hardest achievement ever, the hardest iv'e personally done is the final "bonus" mission of modern warfare on veteran.

if you think SC2 progamers have perfect timing, you've never seen someone play that mission on veteran.


ive done it; sc2 gamers are easily better
that mission is just like iwbtg, challenging but much too easy after a few goes


1)hyperbole for effect
2)i didn't say it was the hardest ever, i said it's the hardest i've done

getting to lich in under 8 or 9 hours(forgot which) in FF9 to get excalibur 2, maan everytime you saved you had to swap the save over to a new memory card because people said theirs a slight more load time if you have more than 1 save on the card.

tedious and u gotta know where to go, flee every battle and fight boss battles with a pathetic weak party so you had to know EXACTLY how to beat bosses

Runescape - pretty much everything.

Especially in the first (no referred to as 'Classic') version.

Is grinding hardcore? Most listed are grinds. Seem more like endurance tests. Maybe I've had the hardcore definition wrong, but I always thought it was like a knowledge and skill based metric. Since we have a lot of WoW refugees, the first 100 or so kills on a boss can be considered hardcore. This is kinda a case by case basis, but following a faq and turning in rep doesn't seem too "hardcore". Or another way putting restrictions on yourself is pretty hardcore. Stuff like the achievements that required you to use a tier less of gear and complete the raid. Pre nerf 0 lights required amazing execution and unfortunately a lil luck. That's hardcore to me anyway.

That is true ^^

Achievement should be about doing something like getting into diamond league on sc2, not winning 50 games versus and easy AI...

All the grind achievement means nothing IMO but something like be the first one to kill a boss in a MMO is ok.

As for hardcore achievement I think beating some games on the NES/SNES 100% are fucking hard since in alot of them you have no continue / extra lives etc... Watch some AVGN and you'll understand.

most of the old nes games where you couldn't save the game and had to finish the whole game with no continues or whatever are way harder than most of these

Yeah I remember when I was a kid - Me and my friend played the NES game where one sheriff walks upwards and shoots left with B button and right with A button, BA = middle. It didn't matter that we kept changing turns after completing levels, we still had blisters on our fingertips from the excess spamming.

Oh and by the way,,, At first, we did not figure out that the level is infinite loop until a secret box is shot open and collected on each level, daaaaaaayum! ;D

Farming in MMO games is like "let's watch 100 movies while I do this shiet", not so HARD, really .

Completing Nethack or Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup with no spoilers.

Roguelike is a hardcore genre in itself :p

Achievement and Ladders and 2 differents things.

I agree that it is impossible to do so cause we all know that olympics on ICCUP are top progamers.

Achievement are more like a side quest or something you wouldnt achieve by completing the game normally.

But now, you start a new game and you got 10 achievement points for sending your scv in the mineral.

What is the fucking point ?

I think an achievement is something which you can do (mostly) by yourself instead of DIRECTLY competing with other players.

I've always been amazed with these random "drops" in game.

It's like manually Killing Mephisto in D2 until you get a perfect CoA. You can try 20000 time and not have the drop once but ppl know its possible so they keep going. God I wanna know how drops will work in D3 !!! MF runs were so fun !!! (b4 bots took control of everything).

You mean about 1400 FFA games. If you don't have at least a 40% win rate in FFA, you aren't even trying.
