Personal Goal - 100m on every table=Doable?

[UranusIsBroken]

Oh, I just want to note I have totally lost my groove on the Bandits Mini-game. I went 1/10 on beating that stupid thing when going for wizard mode...and it didn't get any better the more I played I guess I will keep plugging at it until I get that silly beat all the bandits cheevo. It downright embarrassing that I have not gotten that one. It is the only Non-Wizard Cheevo I have not gotten...Oh, wait, there is that Spiderman/Doc Ock one. All of Uranus's talk of other tables made it hard to focus on playing Pasha, which I need to do to up my score on it LOL

Stop blaming me for your ineptitude, *****. I can't help it that you can't do something as simple as talk, and keep a pinball alive. Talk about downright embarrassing.

You should have seen it the other day, I tried to walk and chew bubblegum. Oh, the Horror!

No kidding. You can barely do either one. Ambitious cuss.

Sat down tonight with the goal to get the Spiderman Clever Fighter Achievement. Must say that was challenging! Laughed at myself for being ticked for setting off other missions over and over. So, decided to add AAA to my table list for All Achievements Acquired

Well done rapierdwit... I take my hat of for your for beating 100mil on all the tables.... that is something I am pretty sure I'm never going to achieve. I'm confident that you will be able to get all the remaining achievements if you set your mind to it... I see you left yourself a few difficult ones (Ultimo, Dracula and Rome!!!) but you have done some other difficult ones already e.g. Ancient Martian map. Strange to see that you have not been awarded the Defeating the Guards mini-game achievement in Pasha even though you have completed all the tales in Pasha... I guess you have to do it outside of the Storybook mode.

I'll see if I can also go for it this weekend, I only have a few ones left; Speed Machine - Rampage, Earth Defence - Decorated Veteran and Rocky and Bullwinkle - Counterfeit Box Tops. I think the last one is going to give me the most problems because I really don't like the table and you have to finish it (no 10 friends to beat short-cut). The other two I'll just plug away as I would like to beat both table's Wizard modes - I might get both achievements before that though because if you beat 10 friends you also get it.

I'm also closing in on your Superscore.. but alas... since the announcement of the latest tournament that is suddenly not really going to mean anything any more!!!

As for as I know, the Guards achievement is for defeating ALL the guards while doing the mini-game, not just beating the mini-game (which I have done dozens of times). So, instead of just trying to beat the minigame (clearing a path and hitting the ball out the top), I need to clear every guard on the playfield. I will prolly stick with Pasha until I get this one done. I usually play 2-3 hours at a time three times a week, so goodness knows when I will get back to the game.

Yea, the first two achievements shouldn't take you any time at all, Either the "proper" way or via beating 10 scores. Rampage is just a super combo, Decorated Veteran is more likely gotten via beating ten scores. The Rocky and Bullwinkle one is really for simply beating one Mission, the Boris and Natasha one. Not "Easy" by any means but it's not a Wizard Achievement. You have most of the hard ones out of the way, these should be CAKE (Oh, look a Rocky and Bullwinkle joke!).

Thanks!!! The less time I have to spend on this table the better.

Yes... sorry, forgot that you had to get all of the guards. Good luck with that.

PS: I have been able with Indy's advice to the get the Boris and Natasha achievement and I got the Speed Machine Achievement as well. Now I just need the Earth Defense achievement!!!

[rapierdwit]

Congrats on getting the first two! I wish they would let you pick which of the two target goals you wish to try for on the achievement (10 people beat OR wizard mode). Oh well ten people is usually a heck of a lot easier

Got Earth Defence as well so now I'm done with the achievements I wish that as well... I wouldn't even mind if Zen resets all the achievements that had the 10 times friends criteria. For both Speed Machine and Earth Defence... without me even knowing what it is actually calculated on I got the achievement. I can just assume that it is for beating 10 friends highest score during that game... I always though I had to beat 10 friends that are higher than my high score because on neither of the tables I got close to it during this attempt. Ah well... its done.... I wish though Ultimo was my last achievement because I really had to suffer to get that one

[rapierdwit]

Finally got the "All Guards Defeated" Achievement. Now, I just have to quit trying to hit them all, which, by the way, gives you 2 million points. Honestly, I think the Guard Mission hampers this table from being better.

[IndyRC_Racer]

I currently have a few goals on PBFX2:
1 - Score 100m+ on every table
2 - Score/rank in the top 100 on every table.
3 - Superscore above 10000 points.
4 - Get to Wizard Mode on a table (denoted by 1 *)
5 - Defeat Wizard Mode on a table (denoted by 2 **)

----------

I'm pretty close on my scoring goals with the exception of Extreme. I really haven't figured out a good way to score big points on this table.

It should be noted that on some tables (Iron Man, Speed Machine, Agents, Buccaneer, Rocky & Bullwinkle, Extreme), that a score of 100m+ should guarantee a good ranking.

As far as Wizard Modes go, I've been focusing on R&B. I finally beat the first 4 missions, but am now stuck at the Rocky & Bullwinkle mission. I have no idea how to finish it.

I really need a focused static goal >.<...

I am bouncing around the tables at the moment trying to find one I feel like grinding for a little while but none of them are overly grabbing me.

I am back into the game however. I might set a static goal of 30mil as a start and try to get my weaker tables up to at least that. That would mean I have:

Blade 14k
Wolverine 24k
SotD 16k
Rome 12k
Biolab 28k
Excalibur 14k

(this is for PBFX2 tables and ones released since then - the older ones I like to mess about on from time to time; but rarely play with any seriousness).

Wish I was better - I play a fair bit but just don't seem to improve >.<

[IndyRC_Racer]

I currently have a few goals on PBFX2:
1 - Score over 100m on every table (Need Extreme)
2 - Score over 1 billion on Earth Defense. (Scores over 1 billion)
3 - Rank top 100 on every table. (Rank top 25)
4 - Get to Wizard Mode on a table (denoted by 1 *)
5 - Defeat Wizard Mode on a table (denoted by 2 **)
