That's pretty cool. I really wish they would sort the rarity thing out though, it's completely unreliable. The TrueAchievements ratio system is much more accurate.

I was No1. in my friends list this month for achievements and I saw that MHTL was more than 1000 behind me. I should have known ..... waiting for the start of the knock out comp?

I started to get the Game Pass games, between these and the Gold games I have plenty to play. I don't have a huge amount of time anymore, so I like to research the new titles I am getting and see how I can harvest the most achievement points the most efficiently. I actually have more time to research the metagame that is achievements than I do gaming time :?

Yeah, sorry about that. I was about 25th in my list before it started, but now I've let rip. Feels good man. :-)

Interesting what you say about the researching part of achievement hunting. I often think that if I spent less time doing that and just cracked on with playing games I'd probably be better off. I'd definitely have less of a backlog anyhow.

The researching is tacit gaming for me now as actual TV time for gaming is not great anymore.

My problem is that I don't consider what I want to play and then work out how to get the most points. I play the games that are easiest to get points on, regardless of how shite they might be.

Obvious exception - currently working through Dark Souls 3.

I was going to congratulate you and tell you how rare the corresponding achievement was on Xbox, but when I checked, it seems that 33% of gamers have unlocked it. So well done! But don't brag about it too much. ;-)

Is that the game coming to Pass in a few days? I want the Chieves!

MTHL - something like 77% of gamers have the earn a billion achievement on Pinball 3, but how. I have 21 tables - so I have to average about 40 million per table. Seems a big ask.

Yep, Letter Quest is on Game Pass from Feb 1st. That Pinball FX achievement percentage has always been wrong, TA has it at 5%. Some tables are easier than others, try the Marvel Women Of Power one.

I'm glad to hear the % on the actual game was wrong as I was surprised how easy people were finding the game.

Don’t suppose anyone has Portal 2 and fancies jumping on the co-op for five minutes to let me hug them?

I can do this with you, but would you be able to wait until next week? I'm in the middle of a 'low ratio' challenge for the GTASC and I don't want to mess it up.

Sure thing man, I'm around whenever required ay night - I'd appreciate the help! Trying to clear up a few nagging XBox 360 games that have been sitting unplayed/unloved and bump up my percentage ratio on True Achievements, so expect more posts from me in the coming months begging for help. :lol:
