Just been reading the bulletin and noticed the rather nifty interactive majestic menu at the top. In the Achievement section, which isn’t highlighted yet, you can see pictures of the achievements which allows us to guess at what they could be.
I thought this could be a fun thread where we can guess at what some achievements might be before tomorrow, and maybe continue to discuss them afterwards.
Look at the images and come up with some predictions.
My guesses:
- I would like to direct your attention to the image of a pulse grenade with two skulls underneath it.
I pray to God that we don’t have to get a double kill with a pulse grenade! Or maybe we’ll just have to get two kills in a match with them, which isn’t so bad.
- The Ordinance icon with the number 3 next to it probably means we’ll have to earn 3 Ordinance drops in a single match.
I logged in just to see the achievements , I love achievements! , but I feel that H4’s achievements don’t require skill
i hope there isn’t a mantis stomp achievement this time

Not when they’re so easily (for the most part, accidentally) unlocked by glitches.
But a possible double kill with pulse nades is gunna take some serious skill.
I wanna know about the one with a pig crapping fire.
> I wanna know about the one with a pig crapping fire.
I was gunna suggest warthog, but these are small maps. It has 3 x’s on it which suggests it will involve 3 shots or 3 kills or something…

Get a kill in the Turret of a fully loaded Warthog while it’s on fire. That would be a cool achievement.
Get X number of kills with the SAW.
Get a showstopper medal by saving a teammate from an assassination.
Get two kills with Pulse grenades (surely not Double Kill?)
Beat an enemy down after using the Thruster Pack.
Get 5 kills in one game while using Active Camo.
Get 3 kills with a weapon you received in personal ordnance.
Not sure what the pig one is…something to do with ‘when pigs fly!’?

Triple kill a Warthog maybe?

“When pigs fly”? That suggests its going to be something very hard to do…
Maybe the pig one is destroy a flying Warthog that is occupied by 3 enemies? But…I thought there are no vehicles on the new maps?
> Maybe the pig one is destroy a flying Warthog that is occupied by 3 enemies? But…I thought there are no vehicles on the new maps?
There aren’t any. These are all small scale maps. So it can’t be warthog…
> Maybe the pig one is destroy a flying Warthog that is occupied by 3 enemies? But…I thought there are no vehicles on the new maps?
Good point. I don’t know what it would be if there are no vehicles. Maybe something like “kill hog” where you have to get three consecutive kills for your team before another team member gets one? This one is hard to guess lol
Maybe it’s something using a jetpack.
> Maybe it’s something using a jetpack.
Maybe. I don’t think it will be something as simple as get 3 kills while using the jetpack’ though. The other achievements look like they will be relatively straightforward and with Halo DLC there is almost always one achievement that is very unique and dependent on situation.
e.g the “Now They Fly?” achievement for the Crimson DLC relied on enemies being within view and range of the turret or a splatter, while you were airborne in the Warthog after launching from a ramp of man-cannon.
I have a feeling this’ll be the hard achievement, especially if it relates to the “when pigs fly” phrase.

I like Jellylazer’s idea of “When pigs fly”.
Combine this with the 3 X’s and your idea, suggests that you have to kill 3 jet packing enemies in a single match?
“When Pigs Fly”
Complete 3 matchmaking games in a row without quitting.
> “When Pigs Fly”

Or join 3 games in a row without one already being in progress?
But seriously, I like that idea of killing three jetpackers in one round.

You… I like you.

I think it’ll be the hard achievement too. Maybe killing 3 jet-packers is too easy? I don’t seem many jet packers though…
Win 3 consecutive FFA games? (considering this DLC will have a heavy emphasis on FFA)

I saw this yesterday as well. I thought I’d be the only one to care enough to really look into it and notice it and yeah, we better not have to get a double kill with a pulse grenade…I only have 9 kills with it overall.
