I like this part of a VG's production because you can say we're nearly there now. The achievement list has been published and there's some good ones. I like the look of "Pacifist", "Hax0r!", "Legend" and "Foxiest of the Hounds"

I think most of the secret achievements will have spoilerific titles and be story progression related - there's quite a few.

Joseph, is there any spoilers in the list? If so, please note that so people don't click and accidentally know the ending. =)

I braved the dangerous tundra of potential spoilers to find they only mention some characters names, that's all. Half of them appear to be "secret achievements" though, probably to do with the story or something?

Foxiest of the Hounds
Complete Deus Ex: Human Revolution without setting off any alarms.

I like.
That sounds... Ridiculous.

I'm glad Eidos was smart enough to use the "Secret Achievement" option. Nothing's worse than hitting the middle button (That little "X" in the middle of the controller) and stumbling across the achievement list, which has the ending of the game vaguely described. Secret Achievements prevent such a disaster from occuring. :D

Dumb question: are these achievemnts also Steam achievements?

Anyway: those achievements look fun to get. Definitly fun... Multiple playthroughs, anyone?

So just in case there's anyone who didn't get it: the "Foxiest of the Hounds" achievement is a reference to Metal Gear Solid. FoxHound was Solid Snake's unit. The icon, with a balaclava'd mook with exclamation marks over his head, is also a nod to MGS.

Fun :)

anyone have a response? I like that fact how in steam you can have achievements as well; though sometimes i get confused as games like fallout new vegas have achievements but they feel like they're in the actual game itself/have their own rewards with them. i remember the 360 achievements from when i had a 360 (had to sell it to finance cd recording, oh well) but the steam ones seem a little bit more like you only see them when you exit the game, do they appear in game or affect experience points or anything at all? if dxhr for the pc on steam had these that'd be great (though i didn't look to avoid spoilers, achievements makes you want to really push for certain things even though the experience bonuses already do that a bit).

Yeah the PC version uses Steam achievements.

Best achievements in any recent game: Mass Effect. Because for those who liked the little points system, they had that. But for people like me, we got actual in-game bonuses for each of them. It was sweet. =P

Achievements are serious business in TF2, there are 378 (http://steamcommunity.com/stats/TF2/achievements) of them.

I don't see why they would invent a whole new set of them just for steam, honestly... :o

As long as they make it crystal clear, yes. If you can't just pause the game and check a stat that shows how many alarms you have triggered and instead have to play through a 40 hour game without ever really knowing, I'm not even going to try.

You will know for sure if you sounded an alarm at any point. If you heard none, then you are fine.

Nice, nice. Achievements usually shouldn't have spoilers in them, I mean, they will be available ingame to read, and if some bumbling tot stumbles upon them and gets spoiled, Eidos would be sued ;)

Finish game without setting off alarms? Ha, no way I can do that

LOL

For why? I think ME was the only game I've ever actually got every single achievement for, and that had less then fifty. 378 would be impossible.

I severely doubt they'd be sued, but it was something that really ruined Bioshock for my friend. She went to look at an achievement, then saw... Killed Atlas

...As one of the non-secret, listed achievements. Good-bye ending! lol

Coldfire201

06-22-2011, 11:51 AM

What I'm wondering, is if the achievement for getting all endings is going to be easy. if this game does the endings like the other games, and I can just load a save from the beginning of the last level and get all the endings that would be a silly achievement. Especially for 50 points...

I noticed the 'Smash The State' achievement (Help Officer Nicholas take out the trash (don't know what that means :) )). In Deus Ex 1 the first login you encountered in a datacube in front of the statue of liberty was:

account: nsf001

What?!! No, achievement for completing the game without killing anyone, never setting off an alarm, doing it on Deus Ex, AND under 5 hours?!! :mad2:

Oh well. Still, at lest they got some good ones, unlike some games we know. :wave:

It says so on the ordering page. Where the list of features is.

I've never heard of achievements being different across platforms for any game so yeah they'll be the same.

For why? I think ME was the only game I've ever actually got every single achievement for, and that had less then fifty. 378 would be impossible.

It isn't impossible. I have 93% of them. TF2 is a game you can play for years.

Dead-Eye

06-22-2011, 02:23 PM

They should have an achievement for 1 GP if the player kills every killable character in the game.

Call it "Certifiable Snake" :lol: I like the MGS refreshes in the achievements.

Let me rephrase that: It'd be impossible for me. Battlefield 2 is about the only multiplayer game I've played for more than a year, and even then, I still don't have all it's achievements. I don't play multiplayer often enough for it.

You will know for sure if you sounded an alarm at any point. If you heard none, then you are fine.

You haven't played enough stealth games if you haven't experienced the npc turning towards you just as you knock him out without any alarm sounding or him even going "huh?", only to find out that was a full blown alarm without it even sounding.

lol did you even read it?

Foxiest of the Hounds
Complete Deus Ex: Human Revolution without setting off any alarms.
Legend
Complete Deus Ex: Human Revolution at its hardest setting without ever changing the difficulty.
Pacifist
Complete Deus Ex: Human Revolution without anyone dying by your hand. (Boss fights don't count)

Don't see one for a speed-run though. I don't mind them for not encouraging people just to rush through it though :P Not like it'll discourage anyone anyway

Erm.. guessing by your username, I think you're getting "setting off alarm" confused with "alerting an enemy" (from that crazy hardcore MGS difficulty.. european extreme?). We all know in Deus Ex alarms are set off by enemies who have to go push them (funny how it isn't automated or anything lol), so I'm pretty sure you'll have a chance to stop an enemy from setting off any alarms, even after being alerted of your presence.

Good stuff, with games I really love I manage to get almost 100% of the achievements, usually thes ones I miss are the multiplayer related ones. Since HR is single player all the way, I'm certainly going to try and make it the first game I've reached 100% with.

Did they confirm that for this game? The name of the achievement is "foxiest of the hounds" which I assume is a reference to foxhound, Snakes former unit of mgs1.

Yeah its an obvious reference, the achievement icon has a bunch of exclaimation marks :P I'm not sure if the manual-alarm-activation thing is confirmed or not, but I'm sure they designed the game with that in mind. I mean they're not going to make it impossible. I'm sure you'll hear an alarm too.

Kodaemon

06-23-2011, 01:03 PM

Alarms can be set off:
-manually by enemies via panels
-when you're seen by a camera for more than a few seconds, or trip a laser
-when you shoot a camera
-when you fail a hack on a computer tied to a security system

Very disappointed with these achievements, ''complete the game without setting off any alarms'' and ''complete the game without killing anyone'' are complete jokes. And i do not approve of difficulty related achievements. No way am i even going to try and 100% this game. Unfortunate.

Errmm....what? I'm not an achievement chaser in the slightest, but I don't consider those achievements too difficult. It may require a few quickloads, sure, but they're not exactly rocket science, at least not for your second or third playthrough. I'd much, much rather see things like that than "collect 350 arbitrary items that serve no purpose other than contributing to this achievement."

Seriously, am I completely missing your point, or are you really just complaining that those two achievements are too hard?

VectorM

Are you complaining the collecting item achievements are too hard? I think difficulty achievements are stupid as it alienates people who are not that gd at the game. Also completing the game without killing anyone sounds pretty boring to me. What if the quick load feature ****s up and u kill someone by accident and the quicksave overwrites it? What is the point of not killing anyone in the game apart from only serving the purpose of getting the achievement?? It's not rocket science.

What is the point of not killing anyone in the game apart from only serving the purpose of getting the achievement??Lots of people, and we mean lots, did various different non-lethal runs of the original DX. It's not a stretch to assume people will want to do non-lethal runs of DX:HR; hell, I'm sure plenty of people have already done a non-lethal run of Detroit. As for the quick save overwriting by accident, quick save is manually controlled so that is highly unlikely.

No, I'm complaining that they're too tedious and irrelevant to the rest of the game.

I think difficulty achievements are stupid as it alienates people who are not that gd at the game.

That's why they're called achievements, they signify that you've achieved something. If they were meant to be done by everybody, they'd be called "Everybody's special in their own way medals!" Yes, including the exclamation mark.

Also completing the game without killing anyone sounds pretty boring to me. What if the quick load feature ****s up and u kill someone by accident and the quicksave overwrites it?

What if the quick load asterisk asterisk asterisk asterisks up and you have to get that 259th hidden package again? :eek:

What is the point of not killing anyone in the game apart from only serving the purpose of getting the achievement??

Some people will choose to play non-lethal to see if and how it affects the plot, or just because that's their preferred playstyle. Myself, for example.

It's not rocket science.

No, it really, really isn't.

What does that actually have to do with anything? Was it meant to be an insult? In which case you could have just said 'let me guess you have brown hair', and that would have been just as effective at actually verbally wounding your opponent.

Define a pc gamer. Does he have to play regularly? What if he only plays once a week? What if he has played years ago but stopped? What if he intends to play it again after a long break tomorrow? What games does he need to play in order to be a gamer? Is minesweeper enough? What if he plays half pc half console? Is he a pc-sole gamer? And if he is a pc gamer as you put it, does that change things? And how? Does he somehow think differently because of that?

Explain your sentence.

I am indeed a PC gamer! I also have a PS3 and Xbox360 which I play on regularly, and have owned and enjoyed pretty much every major console (full and handheld, including multiple iterations of single consoles, e.g. Game Boy, Game Boy Pocket, Game Boy Color) since and including the NES / Master System. And before that I played on my dad's Commodore 64 and Atari-thing-that-I-can't-remember-the-name-of.

No time one but you can create a mixture of goals that would be even more difficult than that. I'll be going for pacifist, foxiest of the hounds, doctorate, hax0r1, opportunist, trooper, legend, the D project and old school gamer on my first play through. last 2 are secret achievements that sound like fun.

This involves playing through with no alarms, deus ex difficulty, hacking 50 times successfully, stealth defeating 50 enemies, no enemies killed, hunting through every stage for special content, and not skipping the credits at the end ^_^ who doesn't like to read the names of all the people involved?
