Seriously, the melee one only requires that you kill a single enemy with melee. I earned that in the first 5 minutes of playing the game... How aobut something a bit more interesting and/or challenging? Like killing 40 enemies with a melee attack, 20 withina ginsle mission, or meleeing 5 in a row?

Because unless the game lasts for more than 25 minutes, or if your me, you can't pull that kinda stuff off without playing a HUGE amount of games. The achievements are fine as they are.

Most of the PC issues posted here are the result of PEBKAC.

Grr.. scarab gun... I don't forsee a problem with the others. Just a matter of actually trying to get them.

I thought the scarab gun would have been hard too but surprisingly I got it on the first try. Just have to be patient and keep coaxing the 'shee further into the tunnel.

Hello, Community!

Hopefully if you're reading this, it's because you're interesting in kicking your campaign experience up a notch by cranking up the Legendary with all skulls activated :-) Need advice? A guide? Maybe even a friendly community to cheer you on and help guide you through the process? Then give our Mythic thread a read, and Godspeed on your Mythic journey!

Best Regards,

There IS one for five in a row. It's called Ninja ;-)

I'll admit a number of them are a given. But I'm sure if every last one of them was dang-near impossible, then people would be complaining about that too. Other medals such as Silent But Deadly and Decorated Soldier are quite difficult if you're not glitching. Even kiltaculars don't happen too often.

It's not glitching, it's boosting. Glitching is using things like the wall hack on Danger Canyon.

I was dumb enough to get the scarab gun on Heroic. Whenever the shee came into the tunnel it blew me away.

For the majority, you'll get the achievements without too much hassle, but some are harder than others... and some are just tedious. But the way the system is is fine... except the fact that Warrior is 50 points and Hero/Legend are 25 points apiece... this one made no sense to me. Proud to say I've got 41/41 achievements, but it's more a 'I got them out of the way' situation rather than a 'zomg I must have them all' type thing... because they don't really matter to a hill of beans because GamerScore grants you nothing.

No kidding. That's quite a feat.

The achievements are fine as is. The only one I dislike is the scarab gun beause if you screw it up you have to go way back.

i have no problem with achievements that are varied in difficulty, but some of them are a given. If it only takes one melee to earn the melee acheivement.. There's just no satisfaction.. It should take a certain number of melee's or some high number like 50. That would be prespectable. One mele.. It's just a given..
