Why Does The Acheivement List Only Go To 900?

[Kang Killer]

[question]
and why not 1000 ...........

[razzleson]

Because the last 100 points will be unlocked with addition content that'll be available on the marketplace.

[Lothrian]

The content will also be free.

[Bolt]

because they hopefully are gonna put in in downloadable content

[SteelerXBox360]

Cool! I just saw this and was disappointed that it was only 900 but this makes me feel better :)

[Webb]

And if I remember rightly, the 100 points was to be decided by the fans...

[Kang Killer]

so there will be a FREE downloadable content package
that when you install will give you 100 points

OR

will it be a mission tht will give you 100 points?

[Webb]

It will more than likely be additional missions that when completed will give you the 100 points. May not be just one either. More likely to be numerous...

[Gunstar Chaos]

Dirty Agent 20g : Kill your co-op partner 20 times. Nah that would be too easy.

Write your suggestions for the new achievements in this thread (http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showthread.php?t=18968) and maybe we can send the link for the thread to the creations when they want people to submit their choices.

maybe they'll make a new gang for the island there creating and some of the achievements could be for killing off that gang (if they make one) if not, then im almost 100% sure it will be on the new island there making

[BLOMBOMB]

They're making a new island? Awesome if so!

[Thepunkway]

Possible acheivement: budda says be patient: don't throw your controller thrpugh your T.V. whole trying to find those last two agility and hidden orbs --- 100 GS
also, they're putting in a whole new island? that would be awesome, where do you guys get this info?

[HBNDonut]

Yeah, I heard they were making a new island...

I hope they put agility and hidden orbs on it so that I dont have to keep looking for my last 4 orbs, theyre driving me insane! I would also love them to put a building on the new island which is bigger and even harder to climb than the agency building. That'd be sweet!

My achievement idea: Hot Lava - Travel from North to South of *new island* without landing on the streets, only rooftops or objects.

They should throw some achievements in there for terrorising the civilians. It's so much fun.

[MunkeyKungFu]

A new taller building would be awesome, I was really disapointed with how easy it was to get up the agency tower, I wanted a challenge :(

[Caboose13311]

No Racism 20g - for not saying a mexican joke when you and a co - op friend are in Los Muerotos



Ive tried its hard

[CrAzYnEsS]

heres an achievement they should put in for ya,put a car on top of the agency buildin,will it piss people off,YES,will people try and do it over and over again,YES,will some people magically lose control of their controller and throw it into the tv,MAYBE,i kno i would.

[Thepunkway]

I don't know, and where would the new island be? it seems like anywhere they put it would throu the map off balance... and the maxicans aren't special, what about the russians and the asians, (with cowboy voices, figure that out... seroiusly, next time you're in the shai-gen area listen to thier voices...)

maybe it will be one on the los muertos side and one on the volk side so its like two islands side by side ?

And if I remember rightly, the 100 points was to be decided by the fans...
I read somewhere that it was going to be decided by the dev's who are going to monitor what achievments people get and in what order. If that is the case tho then its blatantly gonna just be some more missions cos they're the achievements that everyone gets.

Here's what I would personally love to see as the final 100GS:

Skirmisher - 10GS (Use firearms to kill your co-op partner 100 times)
Boombastic - 10GS (Use explosives to kill your co-op partner 100 times)Grievous Bodily Harm - 10GS (Use your bare hands to kill your co-op partner 100 times)
D.U.I. - 10GS (Use a vehicle to kill your co-op partner 50 times)
Favourable odds - 10GS (Kill your co-op partner (using any means) 15 times without dying)
Rooftop Hussle - 10GS (Kick/throw your partner off the top of the agency tower and x amount of other buildings, such as Wang's building)
Saddle Up - 10GS (Carry your co-op partner from La Mugre to The Corridor via The Den (or vice versa) without dropping him/her. Must be done with crimes on to make it a challenge)
Pacific City Massacre - 10GS (Kill 1000 helpless innocents, can be done in co-op or single player)
******** Cleanser - 20GS (wipe out ******** gang/kingpin)

That's my suggestion for the final 100GS. But they could always add an extra 250GS on top of that with the new guidelines set out by MS.

[Grim Reaper]

The content will also be free.

i didn't hear that it'll be free.

[zam]

i didn't hear that it'll be free.
It will be free. According to Microsofts new policy regarding achievements, 1000GS must be unlockable for free. The developer can choose to make less than 1000 available at launch and then adding the rest through DLC, but this DLC must be free. One example is Crackdown that has 900GS available initially, with the additional 100GS availabe through free DLC.

An additional 250GS kan be made available through DLC, this can be DLC that you have to pay for, or DLC that is free (developer's choice). One example is the Oblivion expansion The Shivering Ilse, that is bought via Marketplace and offers an extra 250GS (on Oblivions 1000).

[jqtaxpayer]

lol, the game's arguably not even finished. You expect them to finish the achievement list? :p

[theASCHE360]

i hope they add a profile manager cause just finishing the game one time is not fun =( i finished it on 2 days =( and don't know if i shal delete my game profile to star a new one and still get the achivements i don't got on the older file

[Thepunkway]

once again, this thread's writers capacity to grasp information about the gaming world has surpassed my own. what's this about more than 1000 GS per retail game? and once again, where the hell do you guys get this information, a link to a site where i would be able to get the story would be greatly appreciated.

[Thepunkway]

also, this thread seems pretty well versed in bulletin board etiquette, is my signature too long?

[Crabbo]

I normally use gamespot for all my gaming news. Other people use Ign. i remember on GS they said something about a maximum of 1250 in games now.

[Lykos]

What is up with all of this co-op partner killing homoerotic love affair you all have? Those would be the worst achievements.

"Finally, the 500th Super Secret Agility Orbz!"

::Agent is shot by Firefly, forced to regenerate miles away.::

"You bastard!"

The developer interviewed by Major Nelson on his podcast said they were looking to make the last 100 unique concepts invented by the players. One possibility he mentioned was to stack 100 cars in a pile...

Major Nelson's podcast has all this info...you can also search the forums here (http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/search.php?searchid=178277) at x360a to find multiple discussions about it with references.

i tried to listen to major nelson's podcast, but he moves too slow and covers too many things that i just don't care about, plus it's too long, i listened to the games for vista episode, and it was like an hour long, why do that when i could be using my valuable free time to game (no offense to those who listen and enjoy the podcast, nor to the major himself)

Yes, way too long. Please sort it :)

LOL!!

I just read the blog... I have a hard time listening to people talk on the radio. I'm not a phone person either. Face to face or in letters, that's enough for me. But he posted it on his blog about the gamerscore.

Retail games must have 1000... if it has less than 1000, the add-ons that bring it up to 1000 must be free. This will apply to Crackdown, but not older releases like Condemned. Additional content can bring this up to 1250. Arcade games can be brought up with DLC as well... don't remember the number.

[halolma]

I heard that they will be making some games up to 1250, with the extra points coming as downloadable content, as for arcade they will be increased to 250 points,

and Crackdown is the first game to follow this trend, suppose it is meant to prolong the life of games maybe not sure, what do you lot think of the extra achev pts?

[Kyton912]

what about a date everytime i turn the game on it says new conten but then nothin there

[Weirdo666]

Agent Parkinson - 20GP for shooting yourself in the foot 50 times?

I take it you have had issues with your co-op partners killing you and you want revenge???:uzi: Co-OP partner

LOL!!
Lol no. I just enjoy blowing people up and a little bit of versus wouldn't be a bad thing. It would give the game a bit more replayability. Once you've done the story and then gone through all the missions in co-op it can get a bit lacking.
