Sideshow Achievements...

[E(rik)]

Is it just me, or do they seem laughably easy?

Killing a Gorefast with a melee weapon is extremely easy to do.

Killiing five bloats in an entire game? Hell, there should be an achievement for NOT killing five in an entire game.

Crossbows completely eat scrakes, especially on low dificulties. I see nothing hard there.

Killing three clots with a lever action rifle in extremely easy.

Only one that seems hard is Windjammer Enthusiast and Elephant Gun.

Not that I really care; just means more Steampunk Foster for me. >=D

 

[Fa11ure]

They are waaay too easy yeah, but hey, a steampunk foster for free, what more could you want? Oh yes, the steampunk character pack! then we are finally 100%, i will keep on buying all the KF DLC that releases because i have having a open spot on my character list

 

[FlatNote]

I for one am glad the achievements are doable.

During Twisted Christmas, I had a crappy computer so the new models gave me pretty bad framerate drops so I couldn't play enough to get the achievements.

 

[!_Zombie_!]

I'm sure they did this specifically so people could enjoy the skin and have fun getting the achievements.

If every achievement was knife a fleshpound without taking damage it would only cater to the hardcore really.

 

[[KJ]]

they are ez enough for everyone, at least for getting the new skin.

Would be more fun imo, these achivements are almost not worthy of being called achivements....

 

[Raze88]

Could you please link me up on the achievements for the sideshow?
I looked for them the whole day but I seem to be blinded by my rage at the delay.

 

[Lewt]

I didn't realize skins, achievements, and fun were for the "top" 10% of Killing Floor players.

They aren't.

Look, I don't really agree with that. Everyone enjoys different aspects about all games, hence why people play different perks. Some people like to get achievements, no matter how good or bad they are. I love achievements, and i do beleieve these are way too easy. I've gotten 8 already, and I've been playing it for 2 hours max...

I was kinda hoping that i was gonna have to try really hard for a couple of them, the Stalker one is going to be where the hard work and coordination is at. Other than that and pistol the Fleshclown, there really isn't much that can't be done... Even for beginner players. In my opinion, the Christmas achievements were more what I like aiming for, but hey, I'm happy to go for anything, as long as it keeps me occupied and happy

Anyway, good luck to everyone getting them, happy hunting!

 

[lawszepie]

and the siren one is pretty much the same as the xmas bloat one, pretty hard if you're not medic

I got all I needed to unlock Steampunk Foster and it only took me a hour, half of that was getting the map achievment, way to easy to unlock if you can unlock achievments on beginner.

edit: the siren one being the lone exception, but even then, if your only goal is to unlock Steampunk Foster, it is unneeded

 

[d_masik]

It's really hard to get a map achievent, as it lags as hell, but I made it=)))

 

[Pika-Cthulhu]

If its challenge you want, do the map achievs only on a public server, from Normal to HoE. Watch as half the team gets killed trying to pistol a very healthy FP, puts their guns away because they saw a stalker in the group and try to charge it, and basically herpderp and then everyone gets sandy underpants, has a cry and leaves.

That there is the real challenge.

 

[FlatNote]

These achievements could be pretty challenging for the new players that this event brings in.

I've seen a lot of level 0s around.

 

[[UIT] Akame]

None of them take much work to get (less than an hour for me).

The backstabbing stalker one (Assistant Homicide) is janky because of hit detection and basically requiring two people working together.

The Fleshpound one (Elephant Gun) can be completed with dual Handcannons which is extremely viable.

I know that TWI doesn't want to make the achievements impossible unless you have been playing KF since release, but they could easily throw in a few more difficult achievements since you only need 10 of the 13 to get the skin. It's possible they made them easier after complaints from players who cannot get 100% on their achievements page from not getting all the winter or portal event achievements.

 

[Undedd Jester]

The Zed time one is damned tough for a newbie

 

[QuinnyQuinn]

I felt guilty of doing my achievements.

I did it on Beginner difficulty on the Abusement Park map. Everything was easy except the Assistant Homicide (Killing two circus stalkers on the back with melee).

I completed Elephant Gun by letting the Fleshpound eat a rocket and a grenade, then I fished out my 9mm for the finishing blow. The achievement where you have to chain 4 specimen kills in 1 ZED time with melee is pretty hard due to the specimen count, but still managable. All you have to do is to gather the specimens around and just hack-and-slash with a katana. Chainsaw has a much lower probability of completing it due to the low damage, and fire axe is just too slow to chain. If you have trouble gathering the specimens due to damage, then switch to the berserker class. I'm at level 3 and I'm not receiving damage from clots, gorefasts, sirens, stalkers and crawlers.

 

[Dolphin Buff Man]

mmm... see I tried to do it on public servers on Normal to get the acheievement for the level, and whatever I got inbetween start and completetion of that map was great, but i preferred to do it on Hard. I'm avoiding Beginnre like the plague because it really is no longer an achievement... it's more like you took the time to go there and get it and that's about it. But that's just my thought on it, if noone else feels like it's a problem then go ahead it's just for me, I like to feel like I'm struggling to get them, so then it really is an achievement At the moment I'm struggling not to get them, which is a really wierd situation

And why is it that people find the Siren scream one hard to survive, it was one of the first achievements I got? If you are with a team, it should be especially easy.

Sooo...why complain?
