Clear the game without continuing. 20

No Coffee Break

Peacekeeper
Clear the game by defeating the fewest number of enemies possible. 20


Conservationist
Clear the game by using the least amount of Weapon Energy possible. 20

Gamer’s Day
Clear the game 5 times in 1 day. 20

Whomp Wily!
Clear the game once. 5

Destroyer
Defeat your 1000th enemy. 20

World Warrior
Defeat every type of enemy. 5

Trusty Sidearm
Defeat the 8 Bosses with the Mega Buster. 20

Thanks a lot for posting spoilers.....

Now we know Wily is the last boss.......

I actually thought that Light turned evil in this one, but now all that hope in finding out for myself is gone. Thanks a lot. God I'm pissed.....


Back on topic, they do sound hardcore, but doable with enough practice, I say they are fair.

Honestly I feel like most 8 bit MegaMan aficionados could get at least half of these without a big deal.

This is sort of how achievements should work though right? Maybe only the last two seem extreme to me.

Please have trophies as well. I like them to be a challenge. Maybe this is a bit too much, but I guess they are doable. I probably could do some of them in MM2. Peacekeeper and Conservationist are kind of stupid though. At least tell me how many enemies and how much Weapon energy I am allowed to use.

Awesome, been a while since I've played a MegaMan game, don't remember actually beating any. I might have beaten 2, 5, or X5, I don't remember.

Since when did achievements become the domain of only the hardest of hard-core?

Same with Pixel Junk Eden on PSN, have played for hours and only have one measly trophy. F this nonsense.... I don't want to be forced into controller-throwing-rage every time I try for a new achievement!

I know I am not alone in this. Due to the intro, it seems like it could go either way. I actually thought they were gonna do something different for once, but no, I was wrong. Nothing wrong with that.

Yea, "hardcore" avhievemnts like this or funny/unique ones (fable, geo wars 2) are the right way to do them imo

Fixed. These are pretty hardcore, but achievements are for bragging rights. Why would you brag about doing something the majority of gamers are capable of doing?

If they hand you them on a silver plater, then what the fuck did you "achieve?"

No, there's nothing wrong with that. I can understand your disappointment, but with as much talk of "going back to the basics" they surrounded this game with, it's kind of unrealistic to expect a new villain to make an appearance. I've been expecting 8 robot masters + Wily for a long time, and it looks to deliver on that.

this would definitely F up my achievement % (which is >50% right now) and also i'd be paying like $2 per achievement point.

PASS.

Jitterbug - Depends on stage length and how many wily stages there are. I did this with MM1 the other day, but that was with short stages, only 6 masters, and very few Wily stages.
Clear the game in 60 minutes or less. 20

Invincible - Not doable unless you're a freak
Clear the game without dying. 30

Almost Invincible - Doable if there's a good way to continually stock lives, may depend on the ability to re-etner stages or to re-enter robot stages after starting Wily
Clear the game without continuing. 20

No Coffee Break - Doable unless as long as there's no MM7 Dr. Wily
Clear the game without using any Energy or Mystery Tanks. 10

Peacekeeper - Doable or insane depending on how this is figured.
Clear the game by defeating the fewest number of enemies possible. 20

Conservationist - Doable
Clear the game by using the least amount of Weapon Energy possible. 20

Gamer’s Day - Doable
Clear the game 5 times in 1 day. 20

Whomp Wily! - Doable
Clear the game once. 5

Destroyer - Doable
Defeat your 1000th enemy. 20

World Warrior - Doable
Defeat every type of enemy. 5

Trusty Sidearm - Doable with E-tanks
Defeat the 8 Bosses with the Mega Buster. 20

Blue Bomber 10 - Doable
Defeat a Boss without getting damaged.

i recommend watching you tube videos of MM2 speed runs to see how to play 8-bit MM like a god.

seriously, some of those guys did things i never even thought of. namely, the way they use item 1/2/3 to pull off stunts i normally thought impossible.

I think achievements should be a mix of easy to attain - medium difficulty - hard difficulty. I don't mind some extremely difficult achievements, but it irritates me that some devs still go to the extreme; either all easy or all extremely tough. I just don't see whats so hard about creating a good balance in attainability.

Hate, hate, hate achievements. Seeing them in a game I really care about makes me even more angry. Well, that's hyperbole obviously, and I know I'm not required to do any of them, but still, I hate the very concept. If there was one thing from today's game design that shouldn't have been brought to this 8-bit-inspired sequel, that's it.

Oh well, I'll get over it. The game won't suck or rock because of them, that's for sure!
