Are you sure Fable 2 achievements are harder than Assassins Creed? I remember you were pulling your hair out for weeks getting AC 1000.

They were just time consuming. I pretty much watched an entire test match while playing the game to find all the flags. They were far more time consuming than challenging

I must say the Fable 2 ones weren't that hard, but considering there are 40 people who have played it.... I managed to avoid many of the more time consuming ones by getting help from others

I keep saying a simple 1000/1000 rule will make everything easy.  For example:  If a game gets more than 10 people with 1000/1000 on it, it's officially too easy and gets removed in favor of another game that deserves to be there. 

The 10 people comes from that being about 10% of the total league players.  If there was 150 people in the league, you could change that rule to 15 people with 1000/1000.

So games like Call of Duty 4 would lose thier platinum?



sublime78 on 06 November 2008

I wouldn't say easy, just doable. But even at that 5 out of 40 people... that's not a majority. If it was really that easy wouldn't everyone have the 1000? I had to spend a lot of game time doing all that. I almost take offense to the fact that I finally grab the full grand in a race game and it's just shrugged off as "too easy."

But as far as Platinum goes, the one badge i have is Oblivion and that wasn't even remotely challenging, just time consuming but not in the least bit hard. Now, a 1000 points in Call of Duty 4 is the opposite... not time consuming in the least bit but VERY hard. So much that I gave up right at the end it was so hard.

I think platinum should be based solely on popularity, because otherwise you get into opinion driven discussion of what is hard and what isn't.



EaglesEye379 on 06 November 2008

The aim of Platinum - difficult and popular games.

Now I am not saying that Fable 2 is easy, its just RELATIVELY easier than most games purely on the fact that it hasnt even been 2 weeks since launch, and close to 5 people have the full 1000G. I would not be surprised if there are 10 more by the end of this year. Since I started this league, I have never seen such a quick turnaround in one game alone.

However, I do admit that I have dropped the ball on researching the Achievements with SO many games out now. A Platinum game should be decided and not revoked (unless its an old game which no one plays anymore) which is what Im aiming for.

I think the demand for Fable 2 is increasing so I might yield to popular opinion, let me keep on reading what people think.

In regards to Oblivion, the Platinum is awarded because of time-based difficulty. Difficulty is both skill-based and time-based.

@erikers

The problem with that is CoD4 which is difficult. However, I will indeed switch very old games out with new games.

I also think if the League is to be better, I need help from people to rate Achievement difficulty so that we can decide earlier whether it will be a Platinum.
