Ghostbusters: The Video Game Servers NOT Closing

News | December 10, 2012 1:10 pm

It appears the news of Ghostbusters: The Video Game having its servers shut down was pre-emptive, as the shut down will not affect Xbox 360 owners. There's still hope, so get on there!

Ghostbusters: The Video Game Servers Closing w/o Notice

12/10/12 11:29 am | #2

It was announced that the servers are closing due to lack of players. Anyone who is still missing achievements should start going balls to the wall now, as the servers were supposed to close yesterday but according to members at TA are still up for the moment.

I never started this game, was waiting for a 100% patch to ensure none of the achievements would glitch on me. Now I might not ever start it. Glad I only paid $5 for it new a few years back.

Btw, I did search, all threads were old enough that they should all be archived. The 1 I checked was.

This game was really fun, but the MP sucked anyways.

Double post -

So, after a few hours I am at 1.1 million points for my online career after starting at 00. Hopefully, the servers aren't shutting down but toward the end it was getting harder to find quick matches. Maybe it's just the fact that the East Coast is getting tired.

is anyone on here good at the game? Lol. I may start it if the servers are still running, but it looks like you would need about 22 hours to get all MP achievements, and that's with a good team. Being as i have no play time, i would not be good, lol.

If you haven't started the game yet, chances are you can get all the achievements no problem. A few have had issues, but most I know who have started post-patch have obtained the glitched achievements. Even I am only missing one achievement and I played it on release.

For the job types (see some people asking about Gozers here) the best methods I found were:

Thief - 2-3 people, easy! Just keep the ghosts away from the statues.
Containment - 2 people means you have to catch 15 ghosts. Use slime tethers on the first 10, its a cakewalk. Mayan is the trickiest map.
Survival - 3-4 people is best, helps to have that extra person if you get downed. Save big weapons for Gollums etc.
Slime Dunk - You just have to win. Take turns.
Protection - Easily done with two, instead of busting ghosts, you keep them stunned until the PKE poles are up. On the third wave, distract the Gollum away from the pole and the other person keeps the small enemies off it.
Destruction - 3-4 people, the evil relics die much quicker with more proton beams shooting them. Again, just use big weapons on the later relics where there are more ghosts. Avoid the ghosts to make this simpler.

That should net you Gozers in 20-22 hours easily if you have a good team.

thankfully I have 1000 points in this game. Although I have been called a glitcher for getting the full 1000.

Actually, the game isn't that bad. I was always wary about starting the MP do to SOOOO much talk of broken achievements.

Right now, at least this evening, I am going to be on and focusing on 2.5 million. There is a lot of rumors that if you just hit 2.5 million the achievement will unlock...we'll see.

from what I've been reading there is much more to that achievement, including winning 50 challenges or something.
