THC Gamerling Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 I really doubt anyone plays Bladestorm for anything but achievements it is a chore to play, it really isnt fun. you obviously just played the demo and maybe a few levels of the game.... this game takes a HUGE step up once you start getting into massive battles, harder difficulties, countering enemies, and leveling your units/character! This game is a straight diamond in the rough... and also you cant base your facts on the shitty fighting of your maion character, because the game is not based off that but off of strategy and the strength of your units!

matthewmcg360 Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 now that I am further into the game I can see that the game isn't all that bad, I just found it very dull at the beginning but the story is quite good and the larger battles are quite fun.

Captainamerica Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 For the secret achievement, i have unlocked one yesterday, it's called Book Of Explosives. You get it after doing Christine de Pizan sidequest mission. I'm still working to get the second secret achievement. Maybe when you get the 12 gems or when you restore the broken shield. (I'm not sure, but i didn't saw any new units after the rifles, and i think the bombers are included in the book of explosives, have to check that.)

Cpt Beanie Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Is anyone willing to make an achievement guide for this game? I'm going to pick this one up sooner or later as it looks interesting and might be some easy points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinsetsu Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Im going to write one today when I get home, I may not have all the achievements but I know when you aqquire them etc. But it's far from easy i've played 25 hours and only have 600.

Grummy Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 When did you get that side quest? Does she approach you or is it just a contract with request to pick? Is it possible to miss it and not be able to go back to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it possible to miss it and not be able to go back to it? I believe it's a Gossip event so you usually wont miss it after being made aware of it from Karen.

MetaGame Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Has anyone actually got either of the Secret Achievements? Specifically, has anyone even got a vague inkling of where the Book of Engineers is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycence Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 You need to get your Swords / Spears / Horses to 100% and everything else to 70%, at this point you can get the last book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroPts Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 You need to get your Swords / Spears / Horses to 100% and everything else to 70%, at this point you can get the last book wait are you suggesting that you know this is the requirements or is it based on your experience from playing and you believe this is what you did to get it?

ZeroPts Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 You need to get your Swords / Spears / Horses to 100% and everything else to 70%, at this point you can get the last book woot it seems it is true, i got it after i got at least 70% in all the books and it came immediately after the mission. the memo given in the diary states being recognized by the divine archer so it might be 100% bows instead of horse or maybe both as i had both maxed already.

Dude Rain Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Why does no one have 1000 for this game, according to mgc.net? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinsetsu Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Why does no one have 1000 for this game, according to mgc.net? Because it's long and most people don't have the secret books, they just got the info from people who got them on the PS3 version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dude Rain Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Because it's long and most people don't have the secret books, they just got the info from people who got them on the PS3 version. Thanks. Considering getting this game, but seeing that 950 mademe think there were glitched achievements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProjectSix Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 I can confirm that to get the Engineering book, you must get 100% in the three main books (Swords, Bows and Horses) and then 70% in all other books. After I did that, I played one more battle and then the Avatar of War visited me at the tavern and gave me the Engineering book. Also, I had not yet completed all of the "!" missions. I did finish the game but post-game I hadn't finished all of those extra required missions. I have read that eventually you end up with a "Special Battle", and its possible you can no longer get the Engineering book if you get to that point but someone else would have to confirm that. I'd suggest getting all books above 70% and the main 3 to 100% before doing all of the ! missions after you "finish" the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still considering checking this out, but it seems like it'll be way longer than a rental. Maybe I'll pick it up when I get KUF next week.

botafogo007 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Does it make any difference whose contracts you take early on in the game? IE do you need to pick a side and do mostly their quests or can you do some French quests and some English quests. Will it make any difference in the story if you don't take a particular side?

Bredo74IT Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Hi all Anyone found the 2 secret achievements? Are the only that i still miss ps just read now the above mess thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
its delicious Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I would have liked to have seen some achievements based on Combo kills, like scoring 100/150/200 kill combos. Achievements based on the number of points scored in a particular mission would have been nice. I would have liked achievements for killing every special Leader on the battlefield during a battle.

theo Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I agree. It would be nice to have some more variety in the achievements. I have done some achievements from this game. But the fact that the others will take quite some time and the monotomy of it is putting me off. I think I won't be touching this game in the near future.
