DrunknMunky Veteran Posted May 26, 2009 Veteran Share Posted May 26, 2009 Or replaying the last level over and over, the other favoured method in Gears 2 :p Dedication indeed, but not hard work!

Mathachew Veteran Posted May 26, 2009 Veteran Share Posted May 26, 2009 That's what I did, replayed the first checkpoint over and over and over.... and over. Glad that's over.

DR3AMxCATCHER Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 I want to make a note: My UND3RxOATH is more than likely a dead account. I felt I needed a change of scenery and have since then, changed to a new gamertag. I wish to keep my UND3RxOATH account on our leaderboard as something to encourage players who are close to catching me to give them that extra boost. If there is room, I would also like to add my new account "Drown The3 City."

neoadorable Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 why did you do this? underoath was a great name. at any rate, best of luck. as for the leaderboard, you can ask PabUK to remove underoath and add you instead. so what's your gamerscore now?

Yes, UND3RxOATH is a great name and I love it to death. I just want people to understand that I'm not this insane kid who attacks people verbally and is a complete a**. The point of all of this is to let it be known, I'm tired of my reputation and I need need this so people can come to an understanding. My gamerscore is in the 1,000's and I promise it will be larger than that through time. I'm working on Shadowrun and Gears 2 achievements. Just know, I'm no longer UND3RxOATH and that account will be gold until November. As of tomorrow, I'm stripping my name of UND3RxOATH on neowin and whatever I sites I may be registered as. It's been a great 2 years and this is my goodbye to that 30k gamerscore account. Haha, I can make this seem dramatic. Like I said, this is a new and improved " UND3RxOATH.

Mathachew Veteran Posted May 30, 2009 Veteran Share Posted May 30, 2009 After picking up CoD2 and completing almost all missions on Veteran, I'm now in the top 30. A few more missions and that game will be another 1000/1000 for me.

neoadorable Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 well well look who decided to show up, if it isn't the jianbing. saw you on XBL the other day as well. as for mathachew, you're really moving on that gamerscore, you should be at 30K in a couple of weeks at this rate. EDIT: if choosing between those two games, i also vote for Bioshock, but keep in mind Ao2 is a pretty good action title and not too bad for scoring, either. But Bioshock is just in a league of its own.

DR3AMxCATCHER Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 I'm thinking this is the order I'm going to get achievements in. MAYBE. Shadowrun Burnout Paradise Call of Duty 4 Gears of War Gears of War 2 Call of Duty: World At War I can easily get 1000/1000 in Call of Duty 4. 1250 in Gears 1. Call of Duty:WaW I can get close to it. Burnout Paradise and Shadowrun will take time but they are really fun games. Gears 2 will take awhile only because I don't have the motiovation...especailly for Seriously 2.0. Of course, I have arcade games I can do too. Maybe this summer if I get free time. Starting college courses today and about to get a job. :( Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/501135-neowinnet-xbox-community-leaderboards/page/53/#findComment-591066458 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathachew Veteran Posted June 1, 2009 Veteran Share Posted June 1, 2009 Seriously 2.0 is best achieved by replaying the first checkpoint of the last chapter. It gets very, very repetitive, but you can quickly rack up 70+ kills in a matter of seconds. You also see the Brumak intro each time, have to skip it, and escape the tutorial on how to use the Brumak. If you can aim your missiles just right, you'll have the two groups of grubs down literally in seconds. Sometimes aiming for the farthest group will get some of them, but even then, 30 seconds to make sure they're all dead, if that long. You can get about 1,000 kills every 10 minutes. It's definitely the quickest way to completing that achievement. Putting an hour in will get you around 6,000 and I found it easier to do this while watching something to help the time go by (and with no sound from the game, again, repetitive). You could also just play the entire chapter, but I think timing-wise, you get more replaying the first checkpoint.

I just don't want to ever do it again...makes me too sleepy ha.

But Bioshock is just in a league of its own. I tried out Army of 2 first since I'm borrowing it from a friend, but I didn't seem to care about it that much. BioShock, on the other hand, had me hooked all night and until the sun rose and beyond. I couldn't put the controller down. I mistakenly started it up at around 11PM and as the opening sequence started, I turned off my lights. I kept playing and playing and then I noticed that light from outside was peeking through my window. I kind of over did my playing, but that game rocks and I still haven't beaten it yet. I'm confident I'll get 1000, but not so much about 1100 since I really doubt I'll be able to beat the game on hard without dying.

Rookas Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 I didn't care much for Army of Two, it was pretty weak even on co-op. You'll get the 1000 on Bioshock pretty easily, and have a great time doing it. I started working on the brass balls achievement but it's just incredibly difficult without vita chambers. Just save often and it can be done with the right tactics and a lot of patience. For the achievement you're allowed to die, (and you will, a lot) you just have to turn the vita chambers off in options. I keep meaning to go back and finish that one, just haven't gotten around to it yet.

I'm currently at the place after I find out I've been duped by Frank Fontaine. The area before this, you have to get the parts of the bomb, but I had to kill several Big Daddys in order to do this, so you can't progress without fighting at least some of them?

Rookas Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 I don't remember exactly, but if you don't engage any Big Daddy's, you won't get any adam from the little sisters and the later levels will be practically impossible.

neoadorable Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 yeah you have to take out the big daddies for adam, and that's a must for finishing the game. come to think of it, the vita chambers can be even more annoying than going back to a save point, but i don't think the 100GS is worth the frustration of replaying parts of the game many times over. might ruin an otherwise awesome experience.

Rookas Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Only the first few big daddies are a problem. Once you've got the crossbow and can set traps for them with the electric wires they get pretty easy. Those first few though, good luck.

Rookas Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I really need to play Bioshock again, this is making me miss it. I'm off for the next two days, might be a good time to go for the Brass Balls achievement. Then again, gamefly just sent me Red Faction so I'll probably be playing that. I've decided to break 47K tomorrow, and 50K by July.

Unless you absolutely press on with multiplayer for weeks on end. Ive just started playing on it again, its so much more fun than gears 2. But the amount of quiters and stuff is unbelievable. If anyone comes across a player called GreenLightSabre.. laugh at him for me. Apparently hes going to hack all of my team just because he got beat. Sounds like a really cool dude.

neoadorable Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 you get these dip****s once in a while in most games. rook, that sounds like a plan. but 50K means you need over 3K in less than a month...i hope you can do it! i'll be glad to be at 40K by then, it took forever to get from 38 to 39. also, post and let us know how Red Faction is, am also waiting on it.

Rookas Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 I've got a bunch of games to play, I expect to be close to 48 within a week. 50K might be a stretch, but I think I can do it. Gotta keep Piracy from catching me, he's getting close. post and let us know how Red Faction is, am also waiting on it. Red Faction is a lot of fun, just explodey demolishy fun. Not a very deep game, but it doesn't have to be. It's very obvious what it's trying to be, and it succeeds at that. Knocking down huge buildings with sledgehammers, remote charges and rockets, driving trucks through buildings, and huge firefights. I love it.
