Hahaha there was a minor update today for Marvel’s Avengers, and as a result the last achievement bugged on me at 96%!

I have met the requirements already but the achievement won’t unlock.

Completion #79: Marvel’s Avengers

  • Estimated Difficulty: 4/10
  • Estimated Time: 80-100 hours

I finally did it!

Marvel’s Avengers was one of the games I was the most looking forward to. I was so excited about this game that I grabbed the Deluxe Edition just to play a few days earlier. But oh boy, what a mistake it was.

The game is very good. I can’t recommend it enough, specially if you are a fan of the superheroes from Marvel. I wouldn’t have invested a hundred hours into it if I had not like the game. But at the same time the game should not have launched in the state it was. Not because it had a lot of bugs or stuff like that — it had, but nothing gamebreaking happened to me. But because we can clearly see it is an unfinished product.

The first big update went live a couple of weeks after launch and addressed over a thousand fixes — including balancing the enemies, as most of them could hit you a mile away and kill you instantly. Most of the time we are battling against enemy robots in the same environment. There are not enough real villains. It is clear that Crystal Dynamics has held a lot of content back to keep the post game interesting enough to keep people coming back: Hawkeye, Black Panther, Wakanda, another central hub, another faction… all of those stuff should have been at launch, but it is coming a month later to justify the post game.

On a side note: the game is worth for the campaign alone. Even if you are not interested in a Destiny-like game as a service, you should pick this up and play through the campaign. It is maybe 15-20 hours long and is really fantastic.

Achievements-wise, the game is pretty straight forward. It launched with over a dozen of bugged achievements that only started tracking after the first patch went live over a week later, which made me regret getting early access even more. You will get most of the achievements during the campaign. You will have to complete the endgame missions and grind some missions, including 50 Hives that will bore you to death. Don’t worry too much about leveling up, since you can earn around 5 levels for each 20-minutes Hive run. Don’t waste too much of your resources since you will need A LOT of them to level up your gear from power level 130 to 140.

And the best of all: I finished in game just in time for FIFA 21 that goes live tomorrow via EA Play :slight_smile:

You are in! Welcome!

Sounds great mate definitely looking forward to playing this. By the way, how are FIFA achievements these days? I haven’t played them this gen.

I don’t think FIFA achievements are that bad if you play the game througout the year. Most of the achievements you can get in a few hours, but you will spend most of your time on Ultimate Team.

There are two very time consuming achievements: play 200 matches with a player in Ultimate Team and max your overall rating in Volta Football. The later is particularly annoying because you have to keep playing the same match for hours in order to keep upgrading your rating.

The most difficult achievement for me is to reach Division 4 in Ultimate Team. There are a lot of professional players and people who spend a lot of money in this mode, so it takes a bit of skill.

166 out of 60,012 tracked players on TA have completed the game.

Blimey maybe I’ll stick with Pes lol

Completion #80: Slayaway Camp: Butcher’s Cut

  • Estimated Difficulty: 2/10
  • Estimated Time: 2-3 hours

Slayaway Camp is a fun little puzzle game that is available with Games With Gold this month. The TrueAchievement’s walkthrough is fantastic and guides you through the game focusing on the quickest completion possible.

You don’t need to play every level — just the last one from each chapter and a few other more to tackle a few of miscellaneous achievements. Just be sure to not spend any coins until the walkthrough tells you to and be prepared for a light grinding towards 666 kils (you get around 4 each 15 seconds).
