New Halo 3 Achievements list leaked? News
Xbox 360 News by Robert Purchese
The internet has spotted what appears to be a leaked list of upcoming Achievements for Halo 3.
The 30 rewards, supposedly photographed from a "Mythic" build of the game at PAX, total 750 Gamerpoints, according to the Ascendant Justice forum (spotted by Kotaku).
These divide down into three identical packs: 10 Achievements, 250 Gamerpoints a piece. Which makes sense.
Most of the detailed Achievements appear to be based around bunches of maps, such as the Legendary pack previously released - adding fuel to the "these are map packs" argument.
Examples are "Double Double", which offers 25 points for two Double Kills during a ranked or social match on a Legendary Map; or "Defend This", which awards a whopping 50 points for beating someone to death with a flag on a Legendary Map during a ranked or social match.
Bizarrely, there are also Achievements that give zero Gamerpoints, such as "Vidmaster Challenge: 7 on 7", awarded for entering into a playlist with seven experience on the seventh day of the month.
We're checking authenticity with Bungie.
Until then, here's that list in full:
- Heretic Skull - 25 points

- Assembly Skull - 25 points

This is exciting! Oh c'mon..., I like it...
"why are there achievements with no points?" I've seen 2 of these kind: one case is "shame achievements" like die XX times (Blue Dragon, I didn't want those); and then you have Kameo which were made to celebrate an event (no much effort required from the player). |

shame about the online Halo 3 community. scores of utter cocks. second accounts fucking up the skill balance, betrayals, quitters, not to mention the ever present verbal abuse... and if you're betrayed repeatedly and decide to leave, you're punished.
the last 3 times I've played I've vowed never to play again with anyone not on my friends again - only to have a few beers and then chance it once more. *sigh* |

i've had equally bad, if not worse, experiences on other games. it's like all online, there's a bunch of fucktards around, and they suck :(
750 points? I thought the whole cap was 1250? Perhaps they'll change it for H3. Dunnoz. |

There's a 0 pointer on Fable II Pub Games for playing using your Fable II hero, and 1 on DOA4 for getting your ass kicked online IIRC. They're there for 100%ers to get, as they like to not only get 1k/1k but EVERY achievement...
This sounds intriguing. MS'll have to change the GSP cap again - it was 1k for game, 250 for an expansion. But AN expansion, note, not PER. |

To get achievements people should be forced to do ranked imo. Harder to boost (cheat) for achievements that way.

"To get achievements people should be forced to do ranked imo. Harder to boost (cheat) for achievements that way."
yeah... as oposed to wanting to have a normal game and hear "boost game! boost game!", that means not only the "cheating" but also ruining the game for those who want to play it normally. |

but halo online is almost impossible for those who aren't "l33t" or verging on it, so most of these achievements are redundant anyway [i'm just bitter because i'm getting old and my reaction times are crap] |

I agree with muscleblade, I don't like the idea of boosting, I prefer earning them the honest way. I'm actually pretty crap at online games in general so if I can't get them then I can't get them, and thats that.
My brother got the full 1000 on Blue Dragon, including the two for no points that actually take a fair bit of effort. I told him he was stoopid. |

Yes, but without the time limit (which isn't anywhere NEAR 20 mins) I and others wouldn't have had some of the best and closest games ever. The 49 vs 50 scorelines happen. It's satisfying to stage such comebacks.
The problem I see with adding a rank 7 on the 7th though will be the bell ends who de-level just to get it. So, for about a month after this releases there will be arseholes team-killing to get to rank 7 - sigh. Otherwise, still loving a bit of Halo 3 action!

@ mattigan
980 only. I'm missing: Two for One, Overkill, Steppin' Razor, Maybe Next Time Buddy. don't really care though for some reason. I got obsessed with maxing BioShock and COD4 achievements but these H3 multiplayer ones leave me a bit cold. Plus I've played against kids who had given each other the achievements by standing still and getting mown down etc. I don't quake with fear if I see someone with 1000 :) |

Heretic Skull - 25 points
Citadel Skull - 25 points Assembly Skull - 25 points Sandbox Skull - 25 points Orbital Skull - 25 points Lon pointshore Skull - 25 points It's these cheevos right here that interest me, im hoping for an expansion to the single player game that mught draw me back to Halo which in all honesty im not very good at. But if it's all added for multiplayer i probably wont bother, last time i played i was getting lagged out of matches even though my connection was good hence losing points for no apparant reason. |
