I made a suggestion on Capcom-Unity for SF3: 3S Online to NOT have DRM, seeing how BC: ReArmed 2 for the PS3 has it.
For those that don’t know, DRM requires the PS3 user to log into PSN first before playing the game (you can still play the game if you disconnect the net while playing; i.e. to play it you must first log into PSN).
Whoops! Browser Settings Incompatible
To see it, just click on By Last Week tab on the right side, and you should find my suggestion. 360 owners may not need to worry about it, but just to be safe for us PS3 users, please vote it up.
It’s like a visible accomplishment. I.E. You perform a specific action or task in a game like winning a match in Halo using only melee weapons (I don’t know if that’s an actual achievement). A notification will then pop up, usually with some form of play on words relevant to the achievement gained. Most games have hundreds, of these achievements these days. Why, I have absolutely no idea. You’re still a loser no matter how many achievement points you’ve got.
For some people it’s just another goal in the game. Along with beating the game on different difficulties and stuff like that they enjoy trying to find and get achievements. Some of them are very difficult or hidden.
I’m sure it’ll have them since on 360 they’re required. They’re kind of odd in a fighting game but in more adventure style games I can see why people like them.
As for the DRM thing on 360 the only games with that kind of setup are the ‘indie’ games. Any ‘xbox live arcade’ game can be played without connecting. In my experience at least. I assume it has to do with content and such since the indie games aren’t screened in the same way Microsoft wants to have the last word if something is discovered. They can just yank it and that’s it. but that’s not the case for the ‘xbox live arcade’ games like hd remix or battlefield 1943.
Executional achievements (in real matches) sounds fun but at the same time theres a chance that some days you’re going to run into players who are literally just trying to do one thing on you until they get it
There should be an achievement for making people whiff grab consecutively on wake up
Full Power - Do three unpunished taunts in a round.(For all characters)
What are some examples from sf4 and hd remix?
Stuff like win 100 rounds with a super finish. win 100 rounds with a chip finish.
^Boring stuff, doesn’t go into anything really specific or fun
Yeah, achievements for downloadable games are just petty anyway.
Killing 200 pigeons was the most fun and took me 2 days to find them all.

I thought HDR had some cool achievements, such as where you had to defeat Sagat with a fierce Shoryuken while using Ryu. And performing a seven hit combo. A seven hit combo isn’t very hard to do if you know the game (Deejay has at least two fairly easy ones for example) but if you had just started playing it would probably be a challenge. Raging Demon did not unlock that achievement by the way.
If I had to take a guess as to what 3S achievements/trophies might be, I’m sure at least one or two will involve winning ranked matches. Probably some involving a parrying minigame or at least involving parrying somehow. I hope there is one for taunting so many times after a round ends.
Some people go overboard with the whole achievement thing but I think they are a pretty good idea for the most part.
I also think achievements are a fantastic idea, a way for developers to reach out more to players and give more fun objectives.
Unfortunately achievements are abused… for either silly or repetitive tasks. It’s a shame.
^its because they are often just tacked on.
Personally I dont like achievements.They just feel forced and really dont suit every game.In older games you did something cool/hidden and were rewarded with something the developer had put in their intentionally, as part of the games charm.Sometimes youd just get games where there was nothing else to unlock,you just completed the single player experience and moved on(games like Shadow of the Colossus).
They also encourage ‘achievement whores’ who only play games to get more points to gloat to their online friends.Microsoft promotes this act as something thats good for gaming, and its clearly done to help boost their online sales.This is evidenced by the fact that achievements are in every game.Its just a marketing ploy.Fuck XBL,video games are shit nowadays.
Yeah pretty much what was stated before a lot of the achievement crap isn’t well thought out. A lot of them just seem like time wasters to me.
Achievements were cool in Goldeneye… Just sayin’.
some achievements are retarded…mvc2 u have to do things like win a round in 15 seconds or less where u have to turn the difficulty to max and handicaps up and down to achieve…so fake…
You don’t have to do that. You could just win a match in 15 seconds (which is totally possible). What you described is how an achievement whore would get it. Nothing retarded about that achievement. If games are going to have achievements they may as well be things you have to actually work for.
