Achievements you'd rather not achieve?

[scar_47]

Anything that deals with multiplayer really, but if I had to pick one, it would have to be reaching level 50 in AC Brotherhood, I don't have the patience for that. I'm barely at 25 when I stopped because I realized the people in every play session I've been in are a bunch of idiots and don't even bother playing by the rules.

The other one would have to be from Dead Space 2 where you have a limited amount of saves that you can use to beat the game, I don't know about that.

Don't play by the rules? What exactly are the rules...? They didn't hack the game to act ot of accordance with the games rules so what are you talking about?

Your supposed to play the stealthy assassin not run around on the rooftops alerting everyone its especially annoying when your target is doing this which makes them nearly impossible to kill until you get acess to the gun since they'll spot you if you follow and its almost to catch them while free running kinda doesn't fit the whole hide in plain sight and be stealthy approach that is the backbone of the series. Granted you can play any game however you want since you paid for it this includes multiplayer just don't expect everyone to agree thay your gaurding of that corner of the room or style are conducive to a good experience.

Anything that requires multiplayer. I don't really enjoy multiplayer in the first place, having to deal with multi while working on an achievement sounds like a real pain in the, um, leg?

 

[Grotch Willis]

any achievement involving the mess that is final fantasy 13. I played that game for less than 5 minutes got an achievement for it and now i infinitely regret ever playing that game. Because now everyone knows that at one point i wasted my time on that shit of a game.
Also, the multiplayer achieves for any mostly single player game are almost never worth it.

 

[goldendriger]

Mine is "Get every title" in Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2, the only title i need is to be every character 30 times, and i refuse to use Sakura, she just sucks.

 

[Phishfood]

Any achievement that involves doing things that aren't fun. e.g. finding EVERY secret, pointlessly maxing level. Or achievements that rely heavily on what OTHER players do. Looking at you TF2. Or, rediculous achievements that would require you to not die for an entire round *cough*heal 10k*cough*

Any odd number achievements. Raged hard when I got that one in Half Life 2 worth 2 points.

Um, what? I'm confused.

Captcha: methods). areaus Thats not the worst I've had...but close.

 

[Omey]

That get-off-your-ass-go-outside-earn-shitloads-of-money-marry-a-blonde-on-a-yatch-and-have-3-perfect-blonde-kids achievement from duke nukem forever that yathzee tried so hard for.

If yahtzee couldn't do it,who am i to bother trying?

 

[Vykrel]

i can only assume that Gears of War 3 will have another achievement for just getting kills, and it will probably be called "Totally 3.0", kill 300,000 enemies.

ya, i just cant do that.

 

[kommando367]

Seriously 2.0 from Gears 2 - get 100,000 kills

 

[MikeOfThunder]

Gears of War 2, get 100,000 kills or play 10,000 matches.

Any multiplayer achievements

Finding all 100 of whatever in a sandbox game (I dont mind like 10 or 20 but when its in triple digits...) eg. Assassins Creed.

That god damn achievement from Black Ops. Releasing those four people on Call of the Dead zombie map! There are eight stages to do it! (Spent hours on it and failed)

Any achievement that if you do it solo you get one, but by doing it coop will give you two.

 

[VincentR]

I was beginning to think there must just be something wrong with me. But now I know otherwise: I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that some of the Gears of War achievements were absurd. "10,000 matches". Really?

 

[Khinjarsi]

All the ones you unlock playing FFXIII. I'm reluctantly playing this because I got it cheap and also now want to finish the game for completeness' sake, don't give me measly amounts of points for following a rubbish storyline.

 

[drbarno]

achievements that require a second controller for a primarily single player game

case in point: Sega ultimate mega drive collection has the unlock all extra's achivement, which one of them require completing the first level of a game with a second controller connected.

not spending my money on an extra controller just to get an anchievements that are only worth 50 points.

 

[Dr Jones]

Isn't there one in Garry's Mod for clocking in a year of in-game time?

Lolyeah, i play Gmod almost all the time, haven't even gotten the one for a week yet.

 

[SoranMBane]

The multiplayer-related ones, like a lot of other people have said. I don't want to play the multiplayer on most games, so I don't even bother trying to get them. Even some of the Portal 2 co-op trophies/achievements (I get both at the same time 'cause I'm special) are kind of a stretch, even though I actually played the co-op. One of the stand-outs is the one you get for hugging three people on your friends list. I don't even have three friends on either my Steam or PSN friends lists, much less three friends that have Portal 2, so how the fuck am I supposed to get that without going out of my way to cheat, huh? The one for going through the tutorial with a friend who hasn't played before is even worse because it's so circumstantial.

 

[DeadlyBritishDisease]

The AC: Brotherhood multiplayer achievements really annoyed me. The one where you had to reach level 50 wasn't too bad, because I actually really like playing it, but the one where you have to get ALL the co-op bonuses in a SINGLE match (which wasn't even worth that much) is pretty much impossible to get because everyone sucks at multiplayer (unless they are prearranged).

 

[baddude1337]

Honestly, multiplayer achievements in a mostly single-player game. GTAIV, Red Dead Redemption, Red Faction Guerrilla, and so on.

Seriously 2.0 from Gears 2 I will never get, simply can't be bothered for such a ridiculous achievement for a game I don't really play.

I didn't get Cash Out on my first playthrough of Dead Money, but there is no way in hell I'm replaying that rage-inducing DLC.

 

[DanielBrown]

Trophies that require you to play online, collect every collectable or kill a rediculous amount of enemies gets quickly ignored by me.
I also tend to not bother with the trophies for completing games on the hardest difficulty setting. I prefer to play on easy/normal since I'm not in it for the challenge but for the fun.

 

[MAUSZX]

Probably multiplayer achievements... and those achievements that you didn't know exist and it's to do something or grab something in a specific level and that specific level you is almost at the end... and there is no way to go back so you will need to start over

 

[Shockolate]

Team Fortress 2: Consolation Prize - Getting backstabbed 50 times as a sniper.

I was achievement whoring and really wanted the sniper weapons, so I made my own server, made a bot spy swing it's knife indefinitely in place, so I just walked into it backwards.

Even to this day, I fully believe that, had I not whored that achievement, I still wouldn't have it.

Edit: Read the thread wrong. Thought it was achievements you wish you hadn't gotten. Massive derp.

 

[MAUSZX]

None, I am a complete and utter achievement whore

I'm so ashamed of myself

I feel almost the same sometimes.... but I just looked at your gamerscore and well for a achievement whore you don't have so many achievements
