I am an achievement freak on xbox 360 and i have set up a list of achievements that maybe Bungie could conisider on:

Secret Achievements:Hidden Skulls(5 skulls),20pts each.

Single-player achievements:Finsh on Easy,25pts,Finish on Normal(50pts),Finish on Heroic(75pts),Finish on Legendary(100pts),Halo 3 Single-player 100%,100pts

Multiplayer Achievements:Double kill,2pts,Triple kill,5pts,Killtacular,8pts,Killing Spree,10pts,Kill frenzy,12pts,Killamijaro,15pts,Overkill,20pts,Rank 20,20pts,Rank 30,30pts,Rank 40,40pts,Rank 50,50pts,Halo 3 multiplayer 100%,150pts

Other Achievements:Halo 3 100%,188pts

good ideas for the achivements themselves, but i doubt the math you used will be used in the game as well. everyone likes numbers that end in 0 or 5 :)

I agree until you get to the rank 40 one...I like achievements that take time and work...but are not that hard. I also think that maybe there could be the following achievements (basically a numbered medal instead of just one) (don't apply to custom games...only optimatch)
500 multiplayer sniper medals in Optimatch
100 multiplayer sticks in optimatch
200 assasinations
200 beatdowns
100 splatters
100 hijacks
100 vehicle kills (with return of the previously scrapped for H2 "vehicle kill" medal)

maybe these as well
150 double kills
75 triple kills
50 killtaculars
5 killtrocities
5 kill frenies
5 killamanjaros

I'm not that much of a rank person either,but it doesn't seem very right to have ranks in Halo 3(if they have ranks) without rank achievements.

I agree on some of those but there should be stuff in like
Complete level 1: 5 points
Complete level 2: 5 points and so on
And Saved Humanity: 50 points
Attained 10,00 kills in optimatch: 10 points
5 double kills in one optimatch game: 5 points
Achieved half of winning teams score: 10 points
Got the killamanjaro medal: 20 points
20 wins in rumble pit: 5 points
Attained level 20: 5
Attained level 30: 10

I dont think bungie will put in skulls for this game though maybe
I think that bungie shouldn't put the achievements as almost impossible because like in GRAW you get 40 points for getting to number one on the leaderboard. IF they did that then only a few people would ever get that.

dude, you guys are assuming too much that Halo 3 is going to be exactly like Halo 2. What if there aren't any medals?

i agree.

For Halo 3, MS's killer app, i think they should let Bungie make as many achievements as they wish, with at least up to 5000 points. This would create even MORE gameplay value that Halo 3 will already have with online co-op (an educated guess) and the award winning online multiplayer that the game will already possess

I'd put Co-op achievements on the list,but there is not enough room for other achievements,twice as important.Also having 5000pts total,I think,would be a little unfair for other games.

On the contrary. It will be a requirement of all Xbox 360 games to offer at Least 1000 Points. [Excluding arcade games.] That's on the xbox site itself. Not only does it 'deserve' 1000, it could have more.

However, I don't like the idea of the mutliplayer to get gamerscore. The highest rank I _ever_ achived playing Halo 2 Matchmaking was 34. So 40 and especially 50 would be way out of my reach.

Although I know I'll reach rank 50, you have to admit that a person who does shoul be rewarded. Unfortunately, it will also fuel the demand cheating. And remember, modding isn't the only way you can cheat in Halo...

Here's some crazy ones:

Finishing the game under a target ampunt of time.

Do the entire campaign using granades only.

Kill all the grunts with a melee attack.

Finish the game without using any grenades

Complete a whole stage without killing anything

Do the campaign using only human/covenant weapons

Complete a stage with your marines without getting one of them killed

GRAW doesn't reach 1000...it goes to ninehundred-twenty-sumthing

good achievements,but most of them no one will get.

If Bungie ever publishes these achievements,I most likely would not get rank 40 or 50,but I know some people have the potential to(Besides modders,you can't mod on 360).
