Realize, that as MCX360 gets updated, it will gain many of the PC's achievements, which contained a couple difficult ones. For example, Into Fire, Local Brewery, The End?, and The End were pretty difficult, if I do say so myself.

Updates can't bring new achievements. Just DLC.

i think the only hard ones are leader of the pack and on a rail.

I think an In-Game Achievement system would be much better than the one linked with Xbox Live. That way we could have more achievements and have an in game menu to keep track of them.

They'll never change the current achievements but maybe we will see more added with DLC

Yes it does have a couple good ones, I admit. Still, I'm just missing four now, I got the rest in like an hour of game time, and I wasnt even trying to get them!

Update.

I did vote yes, but it really doesn't matter to me.

I did get all the achievements but just make your own.

My goal is to make an amazing castle, I don't need an achievement for me to do it.

Is it too easy?
Yes
Do I care?
No

I myself have no qualms with easy achievements. Achievements are achievements, and personalty I think gamer score is over rated. It really doesn't say how good you are. Its more of a indicator of how many games you've played.

Theyre way to easy but thats how games are these days.




And what do you want? For them to take them back and give us new ones? lolol

Notch said: “Definitely not. I’d want these achievements to feel like things you can try, rather than these are things you have to do. People can follow them, but only if they want to.” Although he said this regarding achievements in the PC version, same concept applies here. Minecraft is about having fun and being creative, not playing it to increase your gamerscore.

You'll get all the achievements the PC version has. That's just the way it's going to be.

Just because Minecraft on the Pc was so easily shaped by it's community, don't expect the same from the Xbox version. Now you are trying to go toe to toe with Microsoft, and Microsoft always wins.

Way too easy, I got them all in 8 hours gametime.

Too lazy to make 500 meter rail.

Most of them are a bit easy, I'd like some more hard ones.
I wish they could add new ones in the future but oh well, I'm not complaining about easy Gamerscore

I wouldnt complain more gamer score for me

I honestly think there is only 2 decently hard Achievements and they are the 500m railcart one which I just finished yesterday since you need like 300+ Iron bars, and the pig saddle one since you actually have to find a saddle in a mob spawner dungeon. Right now I'm 360/400 Gamescore only missing the pig saddle one.

i'd like to see a lot more challenging achievements even if they are for minimal gamer score i don't want the gamer score, i just want to beat challenges and keep trying them until i have beaten them all, or maybe there aren't some that i can do because they are too hard to complete.

update. I like seeing the support on this, even if achievements are not your thing. lol

In my opion Gamerscore achievements for Minecraft is kind of beside the point of Minecraft. Each time you start a new map it's a new adventure. It's an adventure you define with new goals that you come up with. Whether you want to make a town, a trade route, a big bridge, an egyptian map, whatever. Having to do something specificaly for an achievement for your Gamerscore within minecraft, is not what minecraft is about. So yes the achievements were easy. Were they too easy? N/A. By the looks of the achievements it's mostly aimed for the tutorial part of the game, not the actual gameplay so. Making a rail for the rail achievement would be fun though since from what I have seen it doesn't bug up like it does on pc servers ( I could be wrong - idk). Pig one will happen to anyone who finds a saddle and has some time off from their building. Nether trips are important for a lot of people for glowstone (since you can't spawn it - crative mode not available). Should they add more? Not really, no point. They will though, like the pc version. As they added more they brought out more. I can not confirm nor deny that achievements can not be added from 'updates' or if future versions of xbox Minecraft will be 'updates' or 'dlc'. It's an arcade game, how difficult are achievements meant to be? I wouldn't worry about it. Hey some gamerscore for the little kids who play xbox, wooo. Just my opinion.

I have no interest whatsoever in achievements, I see them as a totally useless and pointless feature.

I hope the devs don't spend more time on them. Better to work on updating and bug killing.

Pretty much this. Also note that all but 3 of the 360's achievements were ported from the PC version of the game. This means that there is a strong chance that any future achievements will also be from the PC version as well. Feel free to check out those achievements.
