k2345 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 (edited) Overview: Estimated achievement difficulty: 2/10 Online: 17[400] Approximate time: TBA Minimum number of playthroughs needed: 750+ MP matches Missable achievements: 1 Does difficulty affect Achievements: No Unobtainable/Glitched Achievements: No Extra equipment needed?: No Welcome to title update 8 pilot, this update add an extra 400:gsicon: into the game and best of all its FREE. Now onto the achievements, most of them focus on burn cards or the black market which was added in a previous update, for those who don't know what it is here is a brief rundown. You are awarded black market credits for doing the following: Match Victory Match Completion First Victory of the Day Completing Daily Challenges Selling Burn Cards At level 50, a percentage of the XP you earn will be converted into Credits The other achievements mainly focus on the new modes introduced in this update, firstly we have frontier defense which puts you and up to three other players into a cooperative game mode with the main goal to defend a vital objective from increasingly intense waves of AI combatants. Then we have Ranked play which puts you through an increasingly challenging set of Tiers by out-performing other Pilots online This is not an exclusive mode or playlist and it works in all standard competitive matches, this mode in currently in beta and only pilots who are Gen 10 have access, but they can send invites out and they gain and extra 3 invites per day. It is worth mentioning that most of the achievements are retroactive, meaning if you did the requirements for the achievement before TU8 you will unlock them / have progress towards them when you load up the game after the update. http://i.imgur.com/2r9fcf7.png High Roller - 50:gsicon: Earn 500,000 Black Market Credits Basically just keep on playing the game, complete matches and sell any excess burn cards you don't need, the achievement will come when you have 500,000 credits. http://i.imgur.com/2r9fcf7.png Big Spender - 20:gsicon: Purchase 100 items from the Black Market ***This achievement is retroactive so if you have done the requirements / any progress it will carry over, to check your progress load up the achievements app.*** It is probably best to do this after you have got the High Roller & The Voices Are In My Head achievements, after you have completed them you simply need to buy 100 items in total. The best & cheapest strategy is to go to the daily deals section of the black market & buy the cheapest card until the achievement unlocks, if your deck becomes full just simply discard all the cards you have been buying & repeat until the achievement pops. http://i.imgur.com/2r9fcf7.png I'll Take Cash - 10:gsicon: Discard 100 Burncards in exchange for Black Market Credits This achievement is not retroactive so you are starting off from 0, if you have followed the guide from the Big Spender achievement you will get this around the same time due to discarding cards in your deck. For anyone who is unsure how to discard a card simply got into you deck pile & press the LT & RT at the same time to discard a card. http://i.imgur.com/2r9fcf7.png The Voices Are in My Head - 10:gsicon: Purchase all Titan OS Voice Packs You will need 200,000 black market credits for this, the OS voice added in this update are: Audrey (French) - 20,000 Elizabeth (English) - 20,000 Hannah (German) - 20,000 Isabel (Spanish) - 20,000 Natalia (Russian) - 20,000 Ryoko (Japanese) - 20,000 Sid - 30,000 Sofia (Italian) - 20,000 Vanessa - 30,000 Once you have bought all of them the achievement will unlock. http://i.imgur.com/2r9fcf7.png All Day Every Day - 40:gsicon: Complete 100 Daily Challenges ***This achievement is retroactive so if you have done the requirements / any progress it will carry over, to check your progress load up the achievements app.*** Each day there will be 2 new daily challenges added to the game, you simply need to complete 100 of these, dont worry if you miss them as up to 9 can be stored at any one time for you to go back to later. http://i.imgur.com/2r9fcf7.png For We Are Today - 10:gsicon: Complete all Daily Challenges for the current day Similar to All Day Every Day except all you need to do in complete all the challenges for 1 day, the games usually adds 2 new challenges per day so complete them on the day they were issued & the achievement will unlock. http://i.imgur.com/2r9fcf7.png Two's Good, but I Want Three - 30:gsicon: Earn at least 2 stars on 15 different maps in Frontier Defense In Frontier defense you play again waves of the Ai, anything from grunt to full on titan who go nuclear when you doom them. One of the new features added is that you can now get a start rating based on how well your team performed at the end of the game, you simply have to play Frontier defense on 15 different maps and get at least a 2 star rating on each. To keep track of this if you have played a map before it will show you your best score in the pre-game lobby, if you already have a 2 star rating just back out & search for a different map. http://i.imgur.com/2r9fcf7.png I've Got a Name for That One - 10:gsicon: Rename a custom loadout For this achievement you need to be level 5, once you are just simply go into a custom loadout & rename it to unlock the achievement. http://i.imgur.com/2r9fcf7.png That’s Quite a Collection - 40:gsicon: Unlock 50 Titan Insignias ***This achievement is retroactive so if you have done the requirements / any progress it will carry over, to check your progress load up the achievements app.*** Simply unlock 50 insignias for you titan, these can be bought in the black market or unlocked by doing certain actions while ingame, for a detailed list of insignias & how to unlock them please look here. http://i.imgur.com/2r9fcf7.png I Could Get Used to This - 10:gsicon: Use 5 Titan Burncards Simply use 5 titan burn cards in game, this will take you at least 2 matches to do as you can only use a max of 3 burn cards per game, if you are low on titan burns cards you can buy the Tactical Ability burn card pack from the black market which costs 10,000 credits. http://i.imgur.com/2r9fcf7.png Stars Shine Brightest - 10:gsicon: Earn 3 stars for a single map and mode A new feature of this update is that after a game has finished you will get a star rating out of 3, the better your performance the better rating you will get, simply get one 3 star rating in any gamemode or map to unlock this achievement. http://i.imgur.com/2r9fcf7.png In the Darkest of Night - 50:gsicon: Earn a total of 50 Stars Simply play the game & this will come in time, 50 is not a lot considering each gamemode has a maximum 72 of stars http://i.imgur.com/2r9fcf7.png Hitting My Stride - 20:gsicon: Achieve a 5 game winstreak ***This achievement is retroactive so if you have done the requirements / any progress it will carry over, to check your progress load up the achievements app.*** For this one all you have to do is win 5 games in a row.

Lavindathar Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Are you going to actually add information on the latter ones? And technically, the minimum amount of stars per game mode is zero. Your not guaranteed a star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your not guaranteed a star. I am working on it now, had to dash due to family commitments, also thanks for the input, I have updated it. Just add that the win streaks are retroactive too! Unlocked the mright after the update and was in lobby. Updating those as we speak, had to do some family stuff for a bit so was away from the PC.

Lavindathar Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 It's fine, just plenty of people post a guide just to be first. I don't get why they don't wait until it's virtually done before posting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get why they don't wait until it's virtually done before posting The only thing I'm missing is info on getting 50 battlemarks, I dont have access to the XB1 at the moment & am only gen 6, what exactly are they ?

Lavindathar Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 (edited) They are a new ranking system. You start off in tier 1 bronze. It takes five battle marks to move up each tier. So to get to silver tier it's 25 in total. 50 marks will get you to gold tier 1 if you did it before the reset. Tiers are bronze. Silver gold, platinum and diamond. They are award for in game score....in hard point for instance it's your best attack or defence score minus your deaths. Attrition is your score minus your deaths. Just earn fifty, dead easy. It appears you can only get into ranked if your gen 10, or a gen 10 invites you. Edited October 24, 2014 by Lavindathar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InvalidAddress Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 A few quick notes that may help: "For we are today" - if you don't have room for all 3 new challenges for today, then you can't get the achievement on that day. Clear out some that you know you won't do and the next day you log on you'll get the 3 new daily challenges. "High Roller" - (Need another person to confirm this) - It looks like it started counting with whatever credits you had when the update went live and all new credits earned after this still go toward the 500k. I had around 100k when the update went live, bought a few of the titan voices, so my available cash went way down. After completing a few games the achievement counter still went up and now shows around 25% for me. (I only have 32k in the bank now) So this may not mean, have 500k in the bank at 1 time.

The Duke of Darkness Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 You can choose custom match for Frontier Defense, this allows you to choose the map you want to play. You can make the game open to public so it can still be done with randoms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lavindathar Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 I had 20k odd and was at 4% when I started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thai J Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 500K credits is a lot. I didn't realize that at first but I went 19-0 in an attrition match last night, I killed every grunt I could find and didn't avoid titan battles and ended up with 135 attrition points. The match gave me aporox 1600 black market credits. That means I that if I played that well every match it would still take me 312 matches to hit 500K. Thankfully you can do dailies and sell burn cards. This is still going to take some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavindathar Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Most I've got in credits is like 2k. Gonna take ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micz 000 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Tip for everyone doing the new frontier defence gamemode. Use a Double Agent burn card, grunts spectres auto-titans and turrets will ignore you. That means not a single enemy will attack you! Really helpfull!

Hybridchld Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 The credits will be a pain. Once you've reached level 50 a portion of your XP is converted to credits but before this update it was 10%, now it's 1%! That means the 300k or so I got easily and spent didn't count and I'll have to play about 100 games to get this achievement! At least I had 60k when it went live which counted.

RonanN1 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Guys, can you please explain this to me? I don't understand: Season ends before battlemark decay Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybridchld Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Battlemarks reset every season, the current season ends at the end of October. In addition to that a battlemark decays every 7 days, basically you lose one a week. The current season will end and reset the battlemarks before that initial 7 day period is up. The achievement doesn't seem to require you to get all 50 marks in one season though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HamKet Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 For anyone needing the ten win streak, here's a simple boosting method: - Join Japan Server - Search a playlist with few people on - Have a friend search the same playlist - Get matched up - Have your friend quit so you get a win - Achievement will unlock after the tenth consecutive win This works because you can now start a game with as little as two people.

You must have had credits in the bank. See my post above, I don't see how you can consistently get 5000 credits a match. I think 2600 was the most I saw and it was another match where I didn't die and was MVP with nearly 150 attrition points. Do other game modes give more credits than attrition?

RonanN1 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Similar to All Day Every Day except all you need to do in complete all the challenges for 1 day, the games usually adds 2 new challenges per day so complete them on the day they were issued & the achievement will unlock. I got only 1 challenge...the achievement will unlock when? At the end of the day? http://s26.postimg.org/dw078r1ud/20141025235213.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
