DLC Achievements..... How now?

So 3 in particular:

Don't Touch That

All Alone

Emergency Room

 

 

 

Been searching for a week straight, 6 hours a day, every day, to find any qualifying matches.

 

None.

 

The "DLC" options are gone - the FFA is gone - finding matches that meet the criteria for these achievements is next to impossible.

 

 

 

Is there any plan on a new Playlist to help this?

 

Be nice if it was Defiant/Noble/Anny maps only ...

Defiant needs at least a Infection map style and Single CTF

Anny Needs a Infection

Noble could use some Race styles I know a few people still haven't gotten that and are trying.

 

I went through the list and can't find anything in particular that even seems like it could remotely have any of the criteria for this.

 

So I spent a ton of hours in Living Dead - attempting to even Spot maps that would qualify - and haven't seen a single one - everyone is spamming fast maps to try to credit farm.

 

 

WTF? Seriously? Give achievements as the base ground of DLC - then make them too specific to earn when the game is based on votes?

 

 

Tip for Halo 4:

Vote once, that's it. You can Cancel your vote (with a "Are you sure you want to cancel your vote?" prompt) but no re-voting. Eliminate the spam vote.

 

Don't make DLC rely on DLC maps - because when the map 'sucks' to the public - no one will vote for it.

 

 

Back to my issue though -

 

Anyone know how it would be possible to get these achievements now?

(theres 1 more, but if I can find a defiant map with Armor lock I can handle it)

 

 

We really NEED a "DLC only" area of gameplay - some of us do care about the DLC, not just for achievements but for the maps - and not seeing them this entire week really makes me miss them more, no one is playing on them, which means I am not using them, which really feels like I spent money for nothing.

 

 

 

Technically it is 'possible' for these to pop up in game -but searching as much as I have really the answer is "no, its not", for it to work all these must be met:

Living Dead based ones:

Need to have ALL PLAYERS have the DLC.

Need to have majority players vote on one of the DLC Maps that corresponds with the achievement.

Play well enough to earn the achievement. (last man standing, infect 3, etc)

 

"Don't touch that"

Need ALL PLAYERS to have the DLC

1 Flag CTF must be voted on - in combination with the map needed (Condemned)

Now you must accomplish the impossible - because of the very challenge of this achievement.

Why is it impossible? well if you do manage to meet all that criteria - chances are EVERYONE ELSE is looking to get that achievement too - so 'not letting the enemy even TOUCH your flag' is down right impossible unless some serious skill/luck is involved.

 

My biggest fear would be the final round - tied up at 0, we finally grab the flag (which I wouldn't do, tell reasons after) and then the other team quits and the achievement is bunk.

 

 

 

Reason- Why bother ruining the achievement for everyone? I say if you manage to get that criteria set (DLC, Condemned, 1flag ctf) NO ONE TOUCH the flags - at all!

 

Turn it into a bloodbath instead- sure no one 'wins' but everyone will unlock the achievement! (both red and blue!) win/win/x8 to all!

 

Now that... has an even less likely chance to occur. I believe "Impossible" is a good word for it right now. Until some DLC map/theme/playslist is made.

 

Just thought of something actually.

 

 

If not adding a Playlist - why not have search options to enable/disable DLC?

 

So I can look specifically for "DLC" players - and not random match made games that could have, and 90% don't, DLC I need. This would be an easy Toggle, and those that don't care can have it switched to "off"

 

Switched "on" it would take extra time (like finding those good connection players) to find DLC players - but it gives you at least the chance of seeing and voting on DLC maps.

This should also put priority over DLC maps over normal maps - since everyone has DLC.

To all able minded members/players with the DLC maps:

 

Let's help out Kissker get some maps voted on yadda yadda.

Help a bed-ridden brother out.

 

Kissker will put together details, if you're interested in volunteering post on this thread or (dare I say PM Kissker) just post on this thread.

Dates and organization will come later

If anyone is still attempting to get these achievements PM me on xbl at DANTHEMAN1515. Its so frustrating being a person who came back to reach near the end of its life cycle, and having no way to play the dlc maps or attain the achievements. The multiplayer based achievements need to end in the form they exist in now. Do random action on map x isn't fun nor is it challenging in a gameplay sense. It is simply frustrating.

 

Some of these issues could be alleviated if 343i simply added a dlc playlist back to reach but I dont think they give a **** about that game with h4 a month away.
