Worst Acheivements Ever

[itsmeyouidiot]

Bullet Witch. Beating hard mode unlocks the harder chaos mode, and beating chaos mode unlocks hell mode. Beating chaos mode unlocks an acheivement worth 250 points, but beating hell mode unlocks an achievement worth ONLY ONE POINT! Rage... Building...

Pretty much all of the ones from Chromehounds. They vary from donating an ungodly amount of money to your faction, to rolling out as a specific class type, I believe, 100 times. Then there's the ones for being number one on the entire server for a season. Making your faction win the war, stuff like that. All of them are real achievements, but damn, they're impossible to get.

 

[Iron Mal]

In my opinion the worst achievements are those that require an unholy level of skill and dedication to unlock (such as the 7 day survivor from Dead Rising or the Impossible achievement from Guitar Hero 3).

While achievements should be interesting and challanging they shouldn't be impossible and daunting tasks (hard but reasonable).

half life 2 - cross the sand without touching it once - i know its doable but when you get right to the end and a steel sheet glitches slightly and you have to reload its quite argh

half life 2 again - two points - the thing that sent my once 0 5 0 5 0 5 0 5 0 5 achievement to 2 7 2 7 2 7 2 7 2 7 making me go back to water hazard to find the stupid cave

half life 2 yet again - go through ravenholm with just the gravity gun - it's easy enough but when your on a rooftop with a quick zombie with a milkcrate and ammo to use as a projectile, it kinda screws you over

Lastly, half life 2 episode 2 - that goddamn gnome, and the games get rid of a save file to add a new save file in a place we have already saved system doesnt help with it. the amount of times i had to try and jam that thing in the back window only to realise that it firstly fell out at the last stop and secondly that glitch doesnt work unless you do it on a night when the full moon is out and you have a leprechaun in your hat just really annoyed me.

other the that i love half life 2

though all in all collect achievements are the worst, i'll refrain from using half life 2 again so assasins creed flag collection ones

one question

WHY THE FCUK FOR?

 

[t.tocs]

Apparently, the achievement for reaching the highest rank in halo wars is supposed to be ungodly hard. Someone on a forum calculated the time it would take if you got X amount of XP per hour and it was a really long time.

Perform (100,000?) Double Jumps as a Scout-TF2

Seriously? What the hell? I've seen alot of people in corners while the game is going just double jumping.

Dark Sector XD

I was the only person online the other day -.-

Achievements should be what they're called; achievements. Most of the ones in TF2 are good examples, like Hot Potato; use the pyro air gust thingie to deflect 100 projectiles... so I just went around minesweeping (stickybombs count!) and got it. That was kinda fun, although I probably would have gotten it eventually without trying.

A bad achievement would be the one where you have to light a spy on fire while he's flicking a cigarette... Please! You literally have to have the guy cooperate with you to get it, then it's not so much an achievement so much as it is a "ha ha look what I did guys I'm dumb =D =D =D" moment.

Any achievement not worth any points is also a bad idea, they just waste space.

[edit] Oops! What I meant to say was "ha ha guys look what I did I'm funny =D =D =D"

 

[zeedee-h]

Mile High Club - call of duty 4. The amount of time spent on that damn achievement... makes my head hurt thinking about it.

 

[Valkyira]

I hate all secret achievements because they don't motivate you to get them. But if i had to choose the worst achievement i would say 'The Peterson' on Fifa 09. To get it you have to play for 50 hours and it is only worth 1G. Waste of f***ing time...

 

[DND Judgement]

those stupid ones some games have for playing the game for like 50 hours...

Edit: btw i hadn't read the post above mine before posting.... hehehe coincidence....

Zombie Genocide in L4D

[Grimm91]

The achievement for saving the game X number of times in any game.

 

[matthiasman]

Bulletwitch.

Hardest difficulty.

Complete it, and get the prestige of a single gamerscore point.

Seriously.

 

[Aesthetical Quietus]

Mile High Club - call of duty 4. The amount of time spent on that damn achievement... makes my head hurt thinking about it.

That was so much easier to do on the PC version.

 

[Jurian]

The guitar hero achievements that require you to beat the last list on expert without missing notes.

 

[Steve Dark]

"Secret: You must unlock this acheivement to see what it is"

Damn Assassins Creed.

I've never played Assassin's Creed, but it's not the only game to have the dreaded "secret achievement." I hate them. Do the game designers not understand that, in order to be driven to get the achievement, I need to know what the hell it is?

Most Secret Achievements are secret because they're plot related. I personally am glad they have them so I don't see MASSIVE SPOILERS every time I look at an achievements page.

 

[Atomsforpeace]

I'm thinking of one in Metal Gear Online where you have to not play online for 30 days. No joke.

Zombie Genocide in L4D

My Gawd who is going to get this?!?!

Skilled players? Pros? People that can aim a virtual gun? People that play as a team and stick together? On expert you kill(as a team) on average 2500 infected per game co-op session. On versus its a bit more, because of the boomering. Do the math, it doesnt really take that long to get it if you contribute to the average.
