X / 80 achieved

Feel free to suggest new poll entries. (I cannot edit the poll, but I can add more polls to my post.)

I thought this might be a fun way for people to get more involved with the community. I imagine the poll answers as badges that you have to specifically request. :sweat_smile:

i must collect all the milestones now

There are currently 80 milestones. Post how many you have achieved, if you like!

Eg. I have 61 / 80 possible

Surprised to see script writing so low! Figured people would have done that a bit more.

Got a colored role on Discord

Does grey count

Was feeling pretty good in the first one with a solid 16/20, but my morale dropped in the second one with a meager 7/20.

Some suggestions:
-Chastised at least 1 idea guy
-Posted stats/growths/numbers with no context and asked for opinions
-Asked how to change Moulder’s class
-Asked how to disable the route split
-Has party switching/route splits in a hack
-Made a chapter with a multi-something objective (defeat all bosses, seize multiple tiles, etc)
-Has put a self-insert in at least 1 hack
-Edited weather movement costs
-Has a playable non-human class in a hack
-Disabled branched promotions in fe8
-Investigated someone else’s report7z
-Solved a report7z
-Did not send a report7z even after being asked to do so
-Has made an Febuilder patch

Perhaps there should be some options for having made things in say, Lex Talionis or Tactile, that are of course FE fangames but not hacks per se.

There also should be options for giving feedback/critique to completed projects, as well as giving feedback/critique to WIP projects.

Sure, I switched from VBA to mGBA. Then I switched back because mGBA fuckin SUCKS.

The second page of the milestones is the thing I should work most on :laughing:. I really have to get more involved with the Discord. I like this achievement thingy a lot :smiley:

Maybe these would be fun to add:

  • Changed the range of short bows to 1-2
  • Added a new class to a project
  • Has been mentioned in another project
  • Has made a lava or desert map
  • Has imported a song in a project
  • Encountered a funny glitch while editing
  • Has played The Last Promise

And most importantly:

  • Had fun while creating a project

I would argue against having milestones that aren’t objectively an achievement.

Like, game design decisions.

Thanks for the concrete suggestions @Shuusuke, @XPGamesNL, and others with vague ones.

I have added 20 more. There are a few of yours I will try to add to the next 20 @XPG if some more suggestions come in. :slight_smile:

I agree, so questions have been worded as “Heard: how do I change Moulder’s class?”. This way we aren’t encouraging deliquency! Just observing it whistles innocently :relieved:

Like, how is an achievement objective? What anyone classifies as an achievement is entirely subjective.

Platinum means that subjective decisions while hacking are not achievements. For example:

I couldn’t include this one, because it does not necessarily improve your hack or hacking ability.

Improvement is subjective.

What do you mean by this exactly?
Do you mean credited for your asset? (eg. portrait, animation, or asm)

1 Like

Credited for an asset, yes. That would improve your hacking/contributing skill somewhat right?

When do we hear the “Bleep-Bloop!” from our XBox 360s when we unlock these achievables?

Oh my god this reference is from 2008.

I don’t want to claim superiority or anything but…

Yeah, thanks.

Mainly trying for these sort of achievements:

  • Community involvement
  • Project progress
  • Hacking ability
  • Some silly ones (usually to do with social interactions)

Edit: Ok. Added 20 more.
I think I am out of ideas for now. But I am accepting suggestions. It’d be cool to hit 100. :+1:

I got 56/80, or 70%.

I need a snazzy title now.
