in general?

the ones that are nearly impossible to get when you read em.

for example
survivalist - complete the campaign without dying.
explorer - find all target marks in every difficulty.

wtf?

Im a fan of offline achievements but a couple online never hurt only downside is if the game isn't popular Online achievements are a drag to get.

Usually I just get them as I go either online or single/co-op, I only try for achievements when I enjoy the process like collecting certain things, headshots, and funny type achievements that are usually like 5 pionts or whatever. As for ones I hate I'd say its the ones that are almost impossible to get or ones that make you play the game over and over and over.

^ Same here. I try to always get all the achievements, but then easily give up. I like seeing my achievements pop up on my screen. =] But i like a mix of both. Offline so i can play campaign, beat it and get achievements and then still get them while i have fun playing online. Like Vegas 2 .

I say some on-line achievements are okay. I hate on-line achievements for games that don't catch on because by the time I play the game no one is on-line playing it. I also hate ridiculously hard achievements. The on-line achievements I dislike quite a bit are ones that require more than 5-10 kills with a certain weapon. I think it's stupid to force people to use a weapon to get an achievement and I say "force" because people want those points and will try to get them. I'd rather not have people on my team using weapons they aren't good with just because they want the points. I also dislike achievements for reaching high levels... all it does is promote cheating. Good on-line achievements:
Play on-line for 20 hours, kill 100 MP opponents, host a game, etc.

All in all I don't really care for on-line achievements a bunch. I think a few good ones to keep things interesting with a bunch of cool campaign/co-op achievements is the way to go. Keep the achievements fun and creative but attainable... then you're golden!

He might of. But he also rarely plays single player in almost all the games he gets. He said he pays for Xbox Live to play it, not play by yourself single player. But i do agree, i like having multiplayer achievements. And i do agree with what you said. But it gets people familiar with the weapons and such. If they get to know the guns better, maybe they'll get better with the guns. So i don't mind having MP achievements. I actually prefer it too because i play that more often, so it would be more rewarding to me if i got them in MP.
