I hope the achievements are flawless with some easy and mostly challenging achievements. Post some of your ideas or guesses for what some of the Achievements will be like.

probably an achievement for beating campaign on each difficulty and then an extra one for beating campaign on every difficulty.

Maybe achievements for discovering easter eggs or skulls.

Hopefully some achievements in multiplayer such as 1000 sticks, stuff like that but NO game winning achievements because that would encourage cheating.

yeah, definitely achivements for campaign. Like in multiplayer like kilimanjaro, unfrikenbelievable, etc.

NO accumulation achievements for Multiplayer, like 1000 sticks. How long you play is NOT an indicator of skill. And no "play x amount of time" type things, either. Some people (in fact, I'd guess most people) can't afford to spend 8 hours a day on a game.

I think that ALL of the multiplayer achievements should be Secret achievements, to discourage cheating.

that only works until one person gets the achievement.... then it will be on the internet and everyone would know, and so doesn't really work....

achievements arent supposed to indicate skill period, people can gain achievements by transfering game saves which takes 0 skill. This is to show that somone might be a good sticker or a good sniper and so on.

I believe that there shold definitely be achievements for the Campaign and Co-Op as well for the different difficulties and hopefully not similar to Quakes achievements such as beat it using only on weapon--- DUMB!. Also i hope the Multiplayer Achievements have a little bit of everything similar to the Perfect Dark Zero Achievements, such as a Career total of kills, sticks, snipes, headshots, etc. I hope that the player will also be able to view their career stats unlike G.R.A.W when u surprisingly get the 10,000 kills achievement, you have no idea when ur going to get it. I also hope that their are no " top of the leaderboard" achievements, that will definately inspire cheating and unfair use of the game.

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"

i think achievements for a game like this are tough. like some other said you can have good achievements for the campaign but what about on-line? maybe just don't have any on-line achievements or something.

I think it will be an easy 1,000 points.

that'd be a hell of an achievement. i can do that in the first game.

no multiplayer acheivements at all. Acheivements themselves have got people cheating to get them, H3 acheivements will send the modders nuts. Someone will find a way to keep getting the MP acheivements over and over again, and thatll suck.

maybe when you graduate high school with over a 3.0 GPA, you're permitted to participate in ranked matchmaking.

Deffitanly NO leaderboard Achievments like getting to the top of a specific leaderboard cause some people like me like the feeling of accomplishment by getting all achievments and if you put in them very few people will acctulay accuire it

You missed the point like Vader missed the banshee, your whole argument is covered in bees.
Stop sending me group invites -blam!-s!

completeing it on legendary without dying and only using beat downs as a form of killing your foe

That... is a true test of skill

Over and over again? You don't have a 360 do you?
