Achiements

December 20, 2008 2:14:04 PM from Demigod ForumsDemigod Forums

These are all so generic. None of them are for doing special things, you just get them for playing the game a lot. They don't feel like achievements.

I.E.

In Left 4 Dead, you get an achievement for killing a Tank solo. Now that is HARD. There are relatively few achievements for doing something 100 times (although there are some). In Demigod ALL of the achivements are .. do X 25 times. What they should be is doing something HARD. Like, go on a 25-Demigod kill streak. And then, another for doing it without going to the health crystal.

These aren't cosmetic achievements, like in Left4Dead. Demigod's Achievements (a horrible choice of word) are actually meta-game levelling of Demigods.

That doesn't change my fundamental point, that you get them simply for playing the game, rather than actually being good, which makes them have little value. If instead you had difficult achievements, you could earn them quickly as skilled or not at all as noob, which would make them important.

This way noobs can get them too though pros should be able to get them alot faster and some are very difficult like kill a demigod 10 levels above u or kill 25 demigods in 1 game. So yes noobs can get some of them too but not all. That way pros can't get a ton of acheivement items while noobs get none.

None is a bit extreme, but pros having significantly more than noobs is just how it should be.

No it shouldn't because incorporating acheivements already make pros be better at start of game. Noobs won't stand a chance. Their should be easy acheivements for for casual people, noobs ,and people who dodn't get a chance to play alot. Lets take call of duty noobs can get all the weapons and perks but in indivual games pros are the ones getting airstrikes and dogs coming in. This way noobs can feel like they acomplished something too. or else new people or noobs won't want to play it.

 

edit: I feel like it should say when u do an acheivement across the screen cause sometimes I dodn't know I did 1.
