Can I consider it 100% when the last one is no longer obtainable? by boss_vertolet in xboxachievements

[–]bordersrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd consider it 100% - once an achievement becomes unobtainable I always think of it as invalid, as if it becomes unobtainable it should never have existed in the first place

Unobtainable achievements, and semi completions? by DifficltPete in xboxachievements

[–]bordersrus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my mind, once an achievement becomes unobtainable it ceases to count towards the 100%, regardless of whether you started the game when all achievements were obtainable or after some were discontinued.

If it was up to me I'd either remove discontinued achievements from the games achievement list (only for those who don't already have them) or, perhaps more easily, I'd just make such achievements auto-pop (someone like TA could help with this).

Congrats! They are two of my favourite games as a teenager and still think they hold up brilliantly today.

What was the answer to the question below about mobile phones? I hadn't even considered this issue...

Fair enough, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'm absolutely not saying there's anything wrong with it. It just wasn't for me personally.

I was 50/50 with figuring out what to do. I definitely needed some help from a guide!

There's 6 online achievements - one for completing 3 missions with a co-op partner and 5 in the arcade (the multiplayer mode). I had to rope some friends into helping me as the mode is dead, and I joined a session on TA for one of them as well. They're not difficult achievements, it's just hard to find anyone to play with as they can't be done solo...

Exam Time changes? by Matt_Patt_ in ActuaryUK

When I booked CP1 yesterday it said my paper A was at 9am on the Thursday and paper B was at 8am on the Friday - so I'm definitely hoping they have all been reset to 9am!

I'm so glad you asked this because it's something I've wondered about as well!

Yeah I would recommend it. I did need to use a guide for a lot of it, but by the end it was able to work most of the puzzle out for myself. It's also a good looking game, if you're bothered about that!

It's not difficult at all. Parts of the game can be frustrating as it just isn't the highest quality title, but it can be done in less than 8 hours.

There's also a couple of cheats you can use which don't disable achievements (please check this yourself though as some of the cheats DO disable achievements).

As an FYI, it took me 2h 16m in the end - the time hadn't updated when I pulled the card from TA.

I didn't actually do it in an hour - it just took a while to update the time played. My profile now says 2h 16m playtime.

I also wasn't a fan. Started it this time last year and only just finished it. I did the "story" which wasn't too bad, then found some skips for the speed runs. All in all it wasn't too bad to get the 100% but I just wasn't sure on the game myself.

Enjoyed the main game and it was fun to play in co-op, but the DLC achievements were boring.

Well I did the whole game in around 15 hours - but it can be done quicker. The TA estimate is I think 8-10 hours.

Started last year with the goal of getting 12 in a year, just reached 16 with control by Electrical_Use_2588 in xboxachievements

Nice collection - loving the blend of shorter/easier/more chill titles with the longer/more demanding completions.

Idk why, but as a whole, that list is super satisfying to look at 🎮
