No one should ever be afraid of looking stupid, so long as they are making a rational effort to expand their understanding.

Ahcievements that take real skill should be in!

If you are referring to leaderboard achievements, than I couldn't disagree wtih you more. Achievements are supposed to add a level of fun to a game, not encorage boosting or be a badge of honor for the skill obsessed few to wear in smirking pride. Conversely, they shouldn't be King Kong (or EA sports) easy. The PDZ style is about right on the money. For the record, I dislike the game.

please bungie dont put achievements for 1st on leader boards or any leaderboards for that matter, its kinda lame and that way people dont cheat (as much)


I wrote an entire post about that in the Underground a couple months ago.

It would be a disaster to make some of the achievements leaderboard based. You thought the cheating was bad before, that would make it crazy. The elite are so stinking good at Halo that only 20 or so people out of the millions who bought the game would be able to get those high profile achievements. So guess what the kids are going to do? Cheat in everyway possible to get those last couple achievements.

Now a lot of people will get caught, but that's not going to stop a lot of people from trying. And even if it doesn't induce cheating, everyone should have at least a chance at getting all the achievements. If you make it leaderboard based, 99% of the games community will have no shot at the last few achievements.

I think it should be things that have to do with the actual story of Halo 3 and not alot of stuff that have to do with multiplayer, makes it to easy to cheat when it has to do with multiplayer.


Should include:killing swordsman elites on different difficultys with your bare hands, headshots, vehicle acheivments, ya know stuff like that

A problem that MAY happen if there is multiplayer achievements such as "100 sniper kills" or "10 flags captured" is that your teammates may start the betrayals for the sniper, or to score the flag, thus ruining the multiplayer experience.

Hopefully there will be more achievements for Single Player than Multiplayer. Let's say 700 as to 300? The 300 for multiplayer would still allow a challenge for people who shoot for the perfect 1000 with each game. The only multiplayer achievement I would like to see is to get a killimanjaro during a Trueskill match (or something higher which I hope there is.)
