Thread: I had a funny argument while commanding

Outbreak is a PC only achievement that is passed on via boomer vomit. It's like a disease...

Gamefly nets you lots of points without having to be good at the games you rent, so I agree that points do not equal skill.

Certainly.
No but srsly, "CAN YOU TAKE ME HIGH ENOUUUGH?! TO FLY ME OVERRRRR YESTERDAY!".
Who wouldn't love hearing that? Absolutely lovely, amirite. Yes, i'm rite.
:]

But yar, I have a habit of creeping L4D achievements. That doesn't necessarily mean that I yell, "OMG GTFO N00B", at anyone that has a low gamerscore in L4D. I just like....creeping. Mmkayz? Alright then.

Anywho, you can check anyone's profile on Xbox, most easily in-game. Then you can compare games with them to see what achievements they have. If you put stock in achievements, then I guess that's okay, but I have made several new profiles explicitly to get a free month of Gold. So I often played well online without getting any of the hard achievements for the new profiles.

Outbreak started as an achievement that only the Valve employees had, and whenever they vomited on a survivor they got the achievement too. So the more games people with outbreak had, the more new players got the achievement, so as time goes on the amount of people with the achievement increases exponentially. A good way of showing how one strain of an infection can spread.

And its a good way to show:
A: The player was the pro-est Boomer bile dodger of all time and that someone actually got him
Or most likely,
B: The guy just started L4D and just got his bile cherry popped.

I had 815 until today I got some more. GS doesn't=skill. Honestly 815 isn't a low GS either.

Huh. That's a really cool achievement then.
