what are all the games with the christmas achievements? D:

http://steamtreasurehunt.wikia.com/wiki/Winter_Objectives

 

[Dmax3901]

Perfect 1-1 with a controller. I haven't been able to do it because the game doesn't recognize my Logitech controller.

Make achievement that requires controller, make one of the lead 3rd party controller companies noncompatible. GG Gaijin.

Mines a shitty powerwave gamepad, doesn't get recognised either. Pretty annoying.

I have seen monday on here. Do we have a confimation for anyone from Valve when the xmas sale starts?

 

[chixdiggit]

Fucking finally.

Yea after playing that for over 2 hours today I finally get 3 kings only to have a pair of twos with it making it a full house. Didn't count.... Rage

[chixdiggit]

No it was a WiiWare game, played by tilting the Remote.

That doesn't seem so bad.

Wait, are we talking Beat or Runner?

Beat

Yep. I got it on my first try but it was luck more than anything. Sucks for anyone who doesn't have a joypad.

First try?! Damn.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Anyone know how to do Isaccs?

 

[gblues]

Congrats to Feep for hitting #10 in the top-selling list for games under $5

 

[Chrysalis]

I can't leave this thread for 10 seconds without losing track of what's going on. So steam released the ticket-for-winning-something achievements before the sale has even started? Why didn't they list this on the main page? And holy crap...there's a million of them!

 

[snoopeasystreet]

First try?! Damn.

I played a lot of beat on the wii so I had a pretty good idea of the block placement.

A lot of the games that are going to be in the xmas event have been updating since about a week or so. It's mentioned in the various change log news updates. The actual contest/sale starts tomorrow probably.

Got it first try as well, not very hard if you've played the game a bunch before already, even with the bad joypad controls.

 

[Togglesworlh]

Have you tried that? It's actually harder than to just do them I think =p

Hah, no. I never tried.

 

[The Technomancer]

That doesn't seem so bad.



Beat



First try?! Damn.

Yeah, its actually even better then the mouse on Wii.

 

[KarmaCow]

I thought about doing the SMB Golden Gift achievement but I haven't play SMB in so long that I'm not used to the controls again. Oh well, hopefully the achievement stuff works like the Summer sale.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Congrats to Feep!

 

[Vamphuntr]

I downloaded that Rise of Immortals game (F2P). Anyone know what is an assist and how to get the achievement quickly so I can uninstall it.

EDIT : Jesus the 2 other christmas achievements for this game are awful you need to refer 10 and 20 friends and they must create an account and play the game.

 

[Nabs]

lol

 

[xelios]

Karma for Feep. Hell yeah! Congrats man. What little I played of Sequence to get the Christmas achievement were amazing by the way, can't wait to play more. Thanks again for the code.

I think I've done Christmas achievements for ~20 different games so far. Not sure I'll do more 'til I find out if it's worth my time. It's been really fun though.

 

[Turfster]

lololololol. I'm so glad I'm not touching any of the f2p crap.

Fuck.... That sounds awful. Valve should disallow crappy referral achievements for events like this.

Uninstalling that right now. Game is awful too BTW.

 

[Derrick01]

Universe Sandbox has the most fun achievements

I think in the summer sale you had to fling the Earth into the sun to get the achievement. Now it's freeze it lol

 

[n8]

It had to happen now. My HDD burned out.

 

[Derrick01]

I know that feel bro.

My ram died right before the summer sale so I couldn't participate in any of the game related activities.

An assist means you help someone else kill a guy. If it's like every other Dota game I've played, it's going to be pretty damn hard unless everyone agrees to farm it.

Rise of Immortals looks and supposedly actually is awful. I advise you to not even bother.

I got 30 in my first game no problem.

You can do PvE for it... lol I know.... PvE.

 

[SmithnCo]

Theoretically we could probably farm the referral achievements but it would almost definitely be more trouble than it's worth, when there are other fun ones to do.

Better to wait to see what these will be used for I guess.

...?

i don't even

that would make it easier, yeah

It gets worse. You sign up for a queue in one of the modes.

Normal competition will have about 1/5 the players in line than 3VE.

 

[SteveWinwood]

Aw man ftp shit is on this too? Goddammit, and i was actually going to try and get all these.

 

[Turfster]

Aw man ftp shit is on this too? Goddammit, and i was actually going to try and get all these.

There's quite a few f2p ones, unfortunately.

 

[Vamphuntr]

Yeah the wiki is still missing a lot of achievements. Hopefully it will get filled quickly when the contest starts tomorrow and people try to find them.

 

[BobJustBob]

Hooray, I got the Poker Night achievement. I had pocket kings and the third king showed up on the flop, so I went all in and the heavy folded. Achievement unlocked.

 

[SmithnCo]

Aw man ftp shit is on this too? Goddammit, and i was actually going to try and get all these.

Yup, I was not looking forward to trying them but after seeing the referral ones I'm debating whether to do them at all. Depends how the achievements are used at this point.

 

[shintoki]

Rise of the Immortals is one game as long as you know what to do. AI isn't tough, and they are stupid. But its about a half hour to forty minute title. Add another if you fuck up.

 

[SteveWinwood]

If its tickets again then i'll only need six or so to get the tf2 item and then the free game

Then there will be nothing worth getting...

Guess we'll find out tomorrow.

 

[Vamphuntr]

At least it's less awful than I had read on their message board. Guy said 20 but it's 2 and 10 friends to refer. Still god awful and hopefully they don't count in the contest.

 

[Jive Turkey]

It had to happen now. My HDD burned out.

Yup. Hurts doesn't it? My gaming computer died back in August and I haven't had the time/money to fix it.

Unless you're posting on your phone, join me in GOG paradise! I only have an old laptop right now and it's giving me the perfect excuse to play and replay the greatest games of all time. OF ALL TIME.

 

[Semblance]

Everyone needs to play more Blood imo.

 

[dragonlife]

When do the winter sales start?

 

[Drkirby]

I have 10 Alts from TF2, I'll think about it.

*Continues hating Poker Night*

 

[jim-jam bongs]

Is this a case of do what I say and not what I do?

Spoiler

Not that I can argue with your choice

 

[Semblance]

Yo.

What are you trying to do to me here, bro. Steam just can't track all my time played on Blood. Yeah.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

The L4D2 acheev is rather hard to get with random people.

 

[jim-jam bongs]

Yo.

What are you trying to do to me here, bro. Steam just can't track all my time played on Blood. Yeah.

It's funny, I was just going through my recommended list and I saw that so it seemed appropriate. I always get a laugh out of one person pushing a game into the most played list, Spiral Knights was another one which always ended up there off the back of one guy :lol

You think that is pushing? One dude alone owns number 3 and 5 for life time totals on my list. He is only a few hours from beating our my Friend's list total Killing Floor time.

 

[Link Man]

Oh god, the sale starts tomorrow, right?

Hold me, I'm scared.

 

[Feep]

Congrats to Feep for hitting #10 in the top-selling list for games under $5

^^

Oh, this is gonna be so fun. Good luck, everyone. (grin)
