I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

You know what, I am not sure, I played in every single map and I didn't get the achievement at all.

Basicly I don't know how to unlock the achievement at all.

No one likes a smart ass.....especially another smart ass!

I finally got the achievement. I was pretty sure I had played all the maps. Then I played on Gemini and it gave it to me at the end of the game. I'm thinking that you have to play from start to finish.

Start a multiplayer game on the very first map on the list. Set the time
limit to one minute, then just play through all the maps on the list. Make
sure you have three other people in the game with your or the achievement
won't work.


No wonder it didn't work, lol.

Violent Cartographer does not explicitly say you need three or more players in the game to unlock it, but I do believe you do have to have them. You shouldn't worry about the achievement, just play the game, and if you don't play the same thing all the time, eventually you will unlock Violent Cartographer / Rainman. Seriously, why do you feel the need to 'cheat' (for lack of a better word) to get achievements that, in the long run, do not matter? I have them both... VC just unlocked itself without my knowing about the achievement, and for Rainman I just made a server, got a lot of people in it, and had fun playing the gametypes. No one seemed to mind playing the variants, and no one mentioned the Rainman achievement at all.

So it's not play the 7 gametypes?

You have to play the 7 gametypes yes... but you must play every variant included in each of the 7 types. You don't just play a Slayer, a CTF, an Assault, a Juggernaut, an Oddball, a Territories, and a King of the Hill. You have to play Team Slayer, Rockets, Swords, 1 Flag CTF Fast, Dreadnaut, Low Ball, Fiesta, Gold Rush, etc. All 39 of them.
