I agree.:  79%

They should have such an achievement.:  21%

Total Votes: 76

An achievement for this is totally idiotic. Quake and GRAW has this. Achievements should be realistic and attainable by most, not .0000001% of the players. If you vote against please give a reason.

i hate those type of achievements. they are not fair unless you reset they leaderboards every month, and that would suck.

How come no achievements? Sorry, I don't have a 360.

Halo 3 (31st), ODST (14th) and Reach (4th) Mythic Conqueror. (Mythic is Solo, Legendary, All skulls on + scoring on and no deaths/saves).

Yeah i'd agree with that. If you get to #1 in the world you are bloody brilliant (or a cheater) and likely can be in the top 50 for quite a while. That is an acheievement in itself so, having an achievement for it is unessary, and as said, completely unnattainable for 99% of all Halo 3 gamers.

I'm sure it will have offline and online achievements. I expect achievements for beating it on various difficulty settings as well as co-op.

ok, i think that the rank system needs to stick around. reason being so that when you play matchmaking or w/e, you don't get paired against someone who is insanely good.

The acheivements will probably end up being along the same lines as PDZ.
100 flag captures
100 kills with a type of weapon
etc

It's not one in the world it's being in the top 200 leaderboards and I agree halo 3 shoudln't have that kind of an achievement.

I'm split. I think that becoming number one in the world is such an amazing accomplishment, it would be unfair to go unrewarded.

But I also feel that Microsoft shouldn't limit halo to 1000 availabe points to be acheived (as is the standard for all 360 games.) I feel the game should have 2000 points available, 1000 for single player acheivments, and another 1000 for multiplayer. I mean lets face it, Halo singleplayer, and Halo multiplayer are two completly different games, and should be regarded as such.

But as for your question I feel that attaining number one online is something that almost requires a reward. So yes, there should be an acheivement.

If bungie can guarantee that all modding and cheating will be gone in Halo 3, i have no problem with this achievement being added.

  • 07.03.2006 5:59 PM PDT

maybe they should have the achievements like how they have it in perfect dark zero and some in GRAW so for every single player level you beat you get 20 points and in muiltplayer for like 10 kills you get 10 points, for 10 flag captures 10 points and so on

  • 07.03.2006 6:05 PM PDT

I'm a procrastinator, but I'll worry about that problem later.

I agree, such an Achievement is unrealistic. Achievement for getting the highest TrueSkill rank available? That's fine. Achievement for getting to the top of a leaderboard where everyone will be boosting stats with their friends so that they can reach the top? (Ever play Conker: Live & Reloaded, one of the few games to temporarily dethrone Halo 2 from the #1 Live Game spot?) Not too keen on that idea.

I didn't understand the question lol i say i agree

  • 07.04.2006 7:17 PM PDT

I STRONGLY agree. I think its pointless for games to have such achievements. My bet is bungie will come up with an innovative rank system similar (or totally different) to Halo 2's levels, and have achievements like get to level 30.

I actually was number 1 on The Big Team Battle leaderboards for a while back when I played halo 2 (before the flood of modders came). It felt very good and I would love more then anything to have an achivement which displays 100%. Then again, I also like to get all my gamerscore in all games I own and Im not sure if I could or couldent get 1st in halo 3. But If I did, I would like a badge of some sort.

My suggestion is to make a "Place 1st on the leaderboards in any game mode" Achievement, but have it worth 0 gamerscore. (like the online co-op achievements in kameo) That way you got the badge saying you did it, but for those who did not do it, have nothing to worry about because they can still earn 1000 gamerscore in the game without it.
