Are you against getting help with your achievements?

04/11/10 7:50 pm | #1

So recently I got Guitar Hero 2 and I was looking at the achievements and so far, it seems to me that 1000/1000 seems pretty much impossible based on my skill level at the game. I can do Hard on pretty much every song and Expert on most, but five starring all of them on Expert, I doubt it.

Which leads me to my question; are you against getting help? Say you have a neighbor who is great at the guitar and could easily unlock the achievements for you. Would you get him to do it, or would that be against your morals?

If you really care about completion, I would say yes. What is your opinion on this, for Guitar Hero, or any other game, say Call of Duty veteran?

I have thought more than once of having my little brother come over for my Guitar Hero 3, and the GH's in the Waffle Order, but I want to try to get all I can first.

Quote by Melissa Evol:

I am personally not against it. I'm good at certain things and Evol is good at other things. There are times we take care of achievements for each other, we're like Jack Sprat and his wife, except with gaming, not eating. But I think if you're going to BRAG about achievements other people got for you, you're an idiot, you know? Like I got Evol all the vocals achievements on Rock Band, and he got me all the Hexic achievements- if he went around talking crap to people because he got the achievement for beating RB on expert, or if I trash talk people for not having Hexic beat, we'd be retards.

That said, it is apparently against XBLs terms of service and you can get banned for it.

You can be banned for having others unlock achievements for you?

Just don't go around telling people about it. Basically.

I had my little sister play High School Musical 3 DANCE for me. And we are also going through lego indiana jones together.

i dont see anything wrong with it, if you know someone who good at a certain game and they are willing to play for you, thats fine

I'm not against it at all. Achievements should be obtained in anyway possible

I've only had one person unlock an achievement for me, but I won't say what game

i don't think i'd mind someone helping me if i really needed it.
my friend brad unlocked the last cheevo i needed in FN3 way back when i first got my 360 and it didn't bother me. i could have done it myself i'm sure but he wanted to play and he ended up beating the game. no big deal.

jen's the same way. i got her some GoW and fable 2 achievements when she first made her tag because i was bored, but she hardly ever asks for help and i know she likes unlocking her own achievements so i don't do it anymore. once in a great while i'll help her if she gets stuck but i wouldn't beat a whole level for her or anything unless she wanted me to.

I got in a fight a long time ago with Brie because I had her run through CODWAW for me on Regular and get me those achievements cause I was too lazy to play the campaign at the time, but she wanted to do a bunch of other achievements for me as well and I said NO! (This was before she had an xbox)

Now, I'm pretty much okay with help as long as I have tried and I just can't stand it anymore. For example, a friend of ours came over and beat Raining Blood/One on expert for me on GH3 because those were the only two I couldn't beat. That was fine, but it was annoying to hear my other friend in the background laughing that he beat it and I couldn't. I'm alright with help unless I get mocked.
