Skullgirls' Trophies and Achievements

I don’t know if that’s the case, most of the complaints seem to be aimed more toward difficult/lucky/tedious online ones like C to shining C or Play against all characters, things that rely on someone else. Personally there should definitely be an online achievement or two to encourage people to play online, but they should be more thoughtful and less grindy/luck based. I mean something simple such as “Play as every character online” is still a damn sight better, encouraging folk to try every character against a human opponent but win/lose doesn’t matter (though hopefully there’s something a bit more interesting than that).

Edit: While I’m here…

Quoted for great justice

Real Soviet Homage: Win an entire game with nothing but 360’s from Cerebella~

The Killing Poke: Finish them off by using Peacock’s qcf+lp move. <~ If people catch the actual pun / reference I’ll marry you.

I’m not a furry, bub! - Kill someone with Furrserker Purrage.

The Killing Joke? Dat Batman.

Hot for Teacher - Complete all tutorials

…and Boom Goes the Dynamite - win a match with Peacock’s lvl 3

Hide Your Kids, Hide Your Wife - get a perfect on an opposing 3 character team.

And of course, if there are some kind of ranked/player points, gotta go with the obligatory…

“It’s Over 9000!”

I am popular lol?

Anyway you guys should have 200 1 point achievements if MS/Sony will let you get away with it.

The other half of the joke being the move itself being a staple of Joker’s lineup~

So when we getting hitched?

Some other ones i came up with

**Switzerland - Dont hit the opponent and Don't get hit for x amount of time**

[SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman] [SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]SkullGirls vs the World - Beat StoryMode/Arcade mode with every character[/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE]
** ** Starlet!! - With any character(s), get xxx number of victories
Yukkuri Shiteitte ne
!! - Beat arcade mode with Any character on easy

** [SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]Femme Fatale - In a lobby, maintain 1st place position for 5 rounds using 1 character[/FONT][/SIZE]
Rise to Fame - Start at the bottom of a lobby and reach rank 1 without losing once
**[SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman] [/FONT][/SIZE]
****[SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman](I have no idea how lobbies work, these are assuming im thinking it correctly LOL)[/FONT][/SIZE]

If you can afford an intercontinental plane ticket, immediately! :lovin:

I haven’t been paying attention to the character’s move sets due to not being able to play the game until release so I didn’t catch that second half. :sweat:

I’m the god damn cat fan! - Win a Miss Fortune mirror match.

ZA WARULDO!: Crush your foe with a steamroller
Get your head in the game: Use your head 10 times in a match.
Everything +the kitchen sink: Win with Peacock going solo.

IIRC Mike was saying that if you start command or super throw and time runs out while you performing it, you will get your damage nonetheless. Then how about giving achievement for such occasion? Namely

“TOKI WO TOMARE!” >=[

I got this from somewhere else but cant remember where i got it from, but an achievement where:

  • With a 2-man team, perform a DHC into the second character, then DHC back into first character.

I like that one since it would teach people than you can DHC -> combo -> DHC.

Major Headache - With Ms Fortune, spend more time in the match with your head off than it being on.
Homerun - Snapback your opponent by snapbacking your own head as Ms Fortune
Holy Smokes! - Finish off your opponent with Peacock’s Level 3 super
The Pain Train - Soak up X amount of damage with Painwheel’s super armour moves.
FATAL KO - Kill off a character with one combo.
By our powers combined… - Perform a DHC combo with 3 characters
What’s meter management? - Perform a combo which uses all 5 of your super levels.


I still stand by my opinion to focus on stuff that teach you something about the game and competitive play rather than just esoteric goals.

Maybe I’m an outlier or something, but I don’t think most fighting games have set high enough goals for online play. I’m a huge online monster and I want an epic journey of an achievement, like 1000 wins or something. I’ve blown through all the other ones in other games way too fast. C to shining C was pretty satisfying but that’s still something I’ve long since completed. I’m guessing not a lot of people are down with me on this, but surely there are at least a few?

With time I think that will improve, online play is probably the biggest reason fighting games have seen a resurgence recently, but they’re just still too arcane for the average person to continue playing for very long before being continuously dominated by people who are more willing to put in the time to learn it. Skullgirls is important for the sustainability of the genre I think, because in it’s current state it’s going to lose mainstream appeal again very quickly and go back to being underground due to being so inaccessible.

I’ll stop talking now, I don’t have any achievement ideas and I’m helping derail the thread :oops:

God Save the Queen - seems like an apt title.

Also possible achievments:

ZA WARUDO - Land the steamroller with Peacock.
Hello Kitty - Get the random cat (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47uFyQDPoyQ @ :56)

I rather see something more creative than winning x times, something that feels like a quest of some sorts. I don’t have any ideas right now, but if I can think of anything I’ll post right away

Just a few things-
1- Will the game have a Platinum trophy? The least number of trophies a PS3 game has that makes elligable for a trophy is 25 trophies (so 25+1 platinum= 26)
2- Can you make some online trophies seperate from the ones needed to get Platinum?

I kinda like the viral-ish one I’ve seen in some games, like ‘Beat somebody from Reverge or someone who has’. But I dunno, it might be a thing where either everybody has it and it’s easy, or nobody has it and it’s a pain in the butt. Maybe beat a top-rank player? I think I saw somebody suggesting that…

Maybe: “beat an OG that has played a beta version”, if you can actually compile all those gamertags 8)

I’m still okay with a 1000 win grind though, because it won’t even feel like a grind, at least not to me.

Should we avoid suggesting character specific achievements since we don’t know what the initial roster plays like?

If there is an art gallery with unlockable art/music, an achievement for unlocking a few pieces from it.
