I'd like to work on the achievement guide but the game isnt out for another month.

Thanks for moving my post. This was locked.

I was hoping for less quest completion-achievements and more achievements like " Punch off 10 heads " or " Shoot off 10 arms " etc etc

[Alucrid]

Looks simple enough. Probably three playthroughs for the karma achievements. Most annoying ones will probably be the bobbleheads and killing all the super mutant behemoths.

I hate finding all the collectibles in these free roaming games.

The rest of these look really fun though.

You could help me if you like .

[ConclusionZ]

these achievements look quite easy. Not sure if the karma ones require 3 play thru but seems like a 1000/1000 in a rental or 2 rentals.

No point starting it now. As I can only know 2 Achievements. But I wont be able to do this on my own .

[Pyroman31]

Great list!

[xX|Triple K|Xx B100dh0uNd]

Im actually really disappointed. This just looks too easy. There are no really challenging ones and some of them look kinda boring. I was really hoping for a long, arduous set of testing achievements that would keep me playing this game for ages. But this is the total opposite! Oh well, I'll still get it for its sheer awesomeness but i think the achievements are a missed oppotunity.

Alright cool

[RINGO]

I like the list...except..... I am not a big fan of achievements that require more than one or two play-troughs...so the karma ones seem a bit annoying if thats how they are unlocked.

I think its going to be similar to oblivion in the fact that it will just take along time but most will be easy enough to get by playing through the countless hours of game-play....similar to the achievements for each guild and main story in oblivion

[armareum]

I think the reason they've gone for generic quest completions, rather than specific ways' of completing them is due to them not trying to mandate HOW you play the game? Okay, so some of the missions may mean you're seen are more evil or benevolent just for completing them; but most apparently allow you to do it in your own style: tech knowledge, FPS/shooter skills, stealthy skills or even talk your way through things.

[olopower]

You've got a good point there Armareum.

Ditto, Bit of a shame really. I was expecting the Achievements to reflect on Fallout's sense of humor a bit more

[Maelmord]

Seems 3 playtroughs are in order for all achievments... Good, evil and neutral... fun stuff!

[BrutalWar]

Im not sure if this is the right place to post this question but its about an achievement so i figured i would ask.

Im just wondering exactly what the super mutant behemoths look like, if anyone has seen a picture of what they look like and how big they are.

if this isnt the right place i should post this then i apologize.

[Axe Argonian]

Seems like a nice, fun list. I like RPG lists when they're fun lists.

Mass Effect's list = NOT fun.

Are these all of the side quests? Please answer no. I hope there are more side quests than these.

Well, Oblivion(same developer) had similar achievements regarding quest completions, but still had dozens of other side-quests which had no effect on your gamerscore.

[Parkerktm]

I must say, out of all achievement lists this is by far one of the best. The titles, descriptions, and pictures are all great. You can tell alot of thought have been put into these, not an super easy 1000 but not a extremely hard one either.

Can't wait til earn these

[B1GgYsMA1lz]

Man this list looks like a fun 1000 cant wait for this game

[Outline]

I was really hoping there were achievments that let us follow the game slightly different each playthrough; so excited that they've delivered on this front.

[Liquid ID]

This is the kind of achievement list that will make the game more enjoyable for me. I can do as I please and know that I will be rewarded constantly as I progress through the story. When I want to explore and muck about, I shall... and when the achievement whore in me starts to nag, I can burn through the story.

Often in Oblivion I would stop getting achievements because I got swallowed up by the sheer magnitude of the freedom available to me. I was still having oodles of fun... but I like achievements too. I had to kick myself in the arse and concentrate of the main story missions to get my gamerscore more in line with someone who invested a ton of time into the game.

I think because of that I disconnected a bit from the world and the story... but if I had continued on at my previous pace, I'd maybe finish Oblivion's main and guild quests sometime in 2020. All in all, achievement lists like this are the perfect balance for me.

Exactly what i was thinking while looking at these achievements, just another reason i'm looking forward to this game. Hopefully it will be so much fun and a different experience as u play it thru each time. I can't wait!

[rickyfeeney]

this aint a bad list. three playthroughs fair enough. i probably would have done that anyway. looking soo forward to this. im getting this over gears. hopefully i get some money so i can get both of them before christmas.

[Mr MichaelAUS]

Did anyone else notice the achievement for picking 50 locks has a picture of a lock that says 100?

[ABKillaKlown]

These achievements look great. Easy enough to have some instant gratification throughout the game, and hard enough so it'll take more than one or two days. I look forward to playing through a few times and seeing how each act plays out differently. And of course the numerous side quests will be great to explore. Just a shame it comes out so close to GoW 2, I'll have to cut down my Fallout 3 time.

[IGLOOGREENHOUSE]

there arent enough Kill this 100 times etc achievements.
