Subject: 4 players needed for some achievements? Why?!

Looking over the achievement list, you'll notice that 4 players are required for a couple. 2 player co-op is one thing, but 4? Why? You shouldnt have to rely on 3 other people to get an achievement. Im sure many of you will disagree, and that's fine. It's just how I feel about it.

What are your thoughts on this?

Thanks for choosing to whine over being a productive member of the community and possible element towards advancing Reach.

I don't know the questions that come to mind are do you have three people on your friend's list who play Halo and did you get the Annual vidmaster or not?

hopefully it willn't come to that, the achievements should be unlockable in both co-op and solo

Yes I complete Annual and hated it. If your three team mates fail, you fail. It's just annoying as hell. Id rather have to rely on others as little as possible for an achievement. Sure, it isnt some huge deal, just annoying imo.

It's just solo/multiplayer achievements are just like online/offline achievements. Just lucky you have LIVE. It's easier to find 3 people to help you get those achievements than not having LIVE at all. Plus, it'll be fun. Man up.

Doc: "i'm a pacifist"
Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

They are trying to encourage people to play the game with friends. Not too hard if you have some. It's really easy to find 3 people online, even this site has a place dedicated to finding peeps to play with.

Team Swat king? Help/Join me on my way to 50

Got my team allready up and we'll be getting that achievement in no time.

THE ZERO

i got annual and it took me two hours i was about a week ago i was helping my friend get it and he sucked i had to do all the work his brother would always die so me and my brother would say just stay back we will fight we got to the part where we had to fight off the flood just before the monitor and my friend had to go. yes i agree that you shouldn't have to rely on someone not to die to get an achievement

There are 2 4 player co-op ones from what i remember of the list. Both are Vidmaster achievements so if you want Recon, they are required.

Keep in mind that specifically with that annual achievement, it is supposed to be rediculous as it is for a bonus (recon). I doubt that a GS achievement would be that difficult.

Warning: You may find that my, or someone else's opinion does not comply with yours. Side effects of disagreement may include (but are not limited to): flaming, irrational behavior, broken keyboards, and/or nervous sweats. If you experience any of these symptoms refrain from communicating with others until the symptoms have subsided.

As long as you know three people who are good... (and I do) then it will be simple. Send me an invite, I'll do it with you sometime.

I put the laughter in manslaughter

because bungie is evil like that. also,
49 is 7x7, however, you cannot do 9 player co-op so bungie went with 4.
