wariowarrior Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Heads up for anyone as stupid as me. I'm an utter idiot I have spent the last 2 and a half hours with an elastic band round my controller trying to get this last achievement. I had no idea it doesn't pop whilst your on the chocobo. I was getting so annoyed thinking it was glitched and questioning how long 10,000 steps actually is. I dismounted and there you go....1000 points for me. Always dismount kids.

Azn Playah Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 And that's why it's a good idea to read the road map because it's mentioned in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrantus Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I did the same thing, I left it running all night with an elastic band and woke up to find no achievement. I was annoyed but figured I'd go do something else, as soon as I dismounted to go fragment hunting... it popped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceris Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I knew you had to dismount, but I must have dismounted 5 different times thinking I walked long enough to get the achievement. At one point I had to buy another Green. I was so impatient, I just wanted to finish that achievement to go work on Serendiptious or however it is spelled.

higuys Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I don't see how people have to Idle this, This should come Naturally Especially If you're going for 1000G. But Meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rekikire Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I don't see how people have to Idle this, This should come Naturally Especially If you're going for 1000G. But Meh. I hardly used the chocobos to travel on while I played. Never had any greens to use them, or got on one of the stupid chocobos that eats a green every few seconds. So I just ran around everywhere on foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aciddata Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 And that's why it's a good idea to read the road map because it's mentioned in there. Kudos, if you don't read the road map / guide, why are you on this site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hype Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Kudos, if you don't read the road map / guide, why are you on this site? possibly for discussion purposes...? there's no rule saying u must read the road map here for every game u put in your 360...

rekikire Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 there's no rule saying u must read the road map here for every game u put in your 360... no but there should be before you ask a question on the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hype Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 no but there should be before you ask a question on the forum. that would kinda defeat the purpose of having a forum...especially since the answer isn't always there/so clear. not to mention there's other ways of doing things that don't get added to the road map OR stickied. a better rebuttal would've been to use the search feature...not so much the road map.

Azn Playah Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I posted the road map because the road map is for achievement purposes and this is an achievement related post. Therefore it would make most sense to have gone that route vs trying to search to see if other people had trouble dismounting a chocobo. So it's a perfectly fine "rebuttal" if you want to use that word, but it wasn't really a debate in the first place and it was merely a suggestion.

Entity Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I think this only applies to the Yellow Chocobos. I was on the Red and Blue one in Bresha Ruins 300 AF (the snowy one where you disable the Atlas Key), and I got the achievement while I was "on" the chocobo.

Azn Playah Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Interesting, maybe it's not so much as dismounting as having a gysahl green run out since the manic chocobos eat up greens while you're riding them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elm Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Kudos, if you don't read the road map / guide, why are you on this site? Most road maps/guides have spoilers in them. I only look at them to check for missable achievements first then after I beat the game to clean up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
