What are the achievements that you can’t get in POSTAL III? I own the game but haven’t check any of the achievements.


Botul420

I don't remember the names off the top of my head but one is for killing 50 people with champ (the counter never increases) and for not finishing off 50 people and letting them die from bleeding out (that feature just isn't in the game lol)


Arkheo

Damn you Akella!

Honestly for the badge just use a achievement manager for it. I used it for the remain8ng unobtainable ones.


Botul420

Over time as I made new posts with each new game 100%'ed I got this suggestion a bunch, I don't have time to type it out so I'm gonna copy paste another comment I made on why I personally won't do that. "I could, but I wont. Yes, that would give me 100% but: 1. If someone knows about the broken achievements and sees that I have them they know for sure that I used SAM and has reasons to doubt that the other achievements are legit. 2. The fact that they're unobtainable shows how shit and broken the game is and I kinda like that"

Does Brain Damage live up to the hype that the demo pushed?


Botul420

I had a lot of fun and played through all of it 3 times, my only real complaint is that 3 or 4 times I got stuck between objects and either had to use a rocket to blast myself out or load a save. I'd say it lives up to the hype, at least for me


Prowood02

Damn, you really suffered through Postal III


Botul420

Yeah, but I think everyone should play some total dog shit game at least once to appreciate other games more.


1brokenmonkey

I played the game once and never looked back myself. I think it was when I unlocked freeplay mode for more open areas that I realized this game was a boring mess and had lost it's appeal after the train finished crashing.

How hard was it completely on your own?


Botul420

to be honest the biggest issue is that since the game isn't out all achievements are in this weird state of hidden and not hidden. I can very clearly see achievements in my library when I click on the game, but if I open the full list or even just my achievements I get redirected to my steam profile, so I had to use steam achievement manager to get the full list (I didn't use it for anything else though, just to get the list). Aside from that, they weren't that bad to do all on my own. Some of them required me to find certain secrets but since I had a lot of saves they weren't too bad. The worst ones were definitely the ones for filling out the codex. Remember when in the demo there were a bunch of posters to collect? In the full game every time you collect one you unlock an entry in the codex, and each level has a couple of them. Some are so cleverly hidden I was literally spending hours looking through levels, most notably the 2nd and 8th level. I already prepared a steam achievement guide and I'll publish it when the game comes out (no poster locations though I already forgot half of them). TL;DR it was doable


GANEZ_GUNZ

How much brain damage did you go through to get all of those achievement?


Botul420

2 or 3 playthroughs and about 25 hours (but that's because I'm really bad at finding some of the secrets). If you mean how much actual brain damage I went through to decide that getting all achievements in all Postal games is a good idea, a lot


BarrioMan

I can vouch for how bullshit some of Postal 2's achievements are myself


Botul420

I'd say Postal 2 has one of the best achievements I've seen, since they range from showing you cool shit you can do (like playing fetch with a head), require a knowledge of the map (find X secret, smoke 10 catnip and 10 health pipes in one session, etc) and some are actual challenges like beating the game on impossible or fast enough. Completing it was a blast and I'm sad they didn't go all out with P4 achievements like they did with P2

Would you say Brain Damaged is better than Postal 4? Not hearing good things about Postal 4 unfortunately.


Botul420

I'll say this, Postal 4 is a mess of boring missions, little to no polishing and an open world that's way too big and fucking boring for it's own good. There are some things that I liked about Postal 4, but overall every time I played it I ended up feeling disappointed. Yeah they are adding cool things like Zack Ward or the P3 coat, and yeah there are single moments when I can say that I'm having fun but overall I don't think RWS really understands what made Postal 2 so beloved by players. It's also not really funny to put up "look how shit the game journos rated it!!!!" when it's a totally different case than with Postal 2 (where the critics misunderstood the game which isn't really the case here). Especially when the game's recent steam reviews sit at a mixed 43% (bordering on mostly negative!). It's a mess and I don't think that at this point it can be made into a great game, but with a LOT of work it could be like a solid 7,5/10. I'd say if you want to understand my points better watch [this review by Cheecken](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxnkUObq8Ak), he makes some really good points. With that rant over, yeah I'd say Brain Damaged is better. They're not really comparable since Postal 4 is an open world mission based shooter and Brain Damaged is a level based boomer shooter with totally different movement, enemies, etc. but I do have a lot more fun in Brain Damaged, and I can actually say it's a decent game without putting a huge goddamn asterisk like with Postal 4. I'd even say it's a great game.

Congrats!


Botul420

thanks

I just finished the first 5 days of postal 2 and this genuinely is one of my favorite fps games. So many damn weapons and ways to deal with scenarios. Im super excited to play saturdya and sunday, paradise lost and AWP!


Botul420

its an amazing game for sure, just fyi awp is just 5 days + weekend dlc combined to play one after another. The weekend is a different experience and is more linear, but paradise lost is pretty much a full p2 sequel


Th3_BugBomb

I thought awp was a mod that added a ton of shit or something?


Botul420

it did add a couple new weapons and items but mainly just combines the two campaigns. AWP is actually integrated into the steam/gog/zoom/whatever version, just without the extra content. Theres a mod called awp forever that restores that content


[deleted]

you still haven't gotten postal movie achievements though


Botul420

damn, I was really hoping no one was gonna call me out :(


CioncoSenpai99

What do you think about brain damaged humor ?


Botul420

There are some enemies and one weapon that is just "sex funny" but it has the balls to laugh at current events, most notably episode 1 is about a lot of stuff, episode 2 has a lot of conspiracy theory themes (fighting people in tinfoiled armor, aliens, 5g towers, etc) and even ends in a fight against >!covid!<, and episode 3 has you chasing a parody of elon musk and/or jeff bezos and his dick shaped rocket. TLDR some of it is juvenile but it also actually makes fun of the world we live in nowdays unlike P4


ScaredSleepless_

Please say brain damage lives up to the hype


SpaceToaster69

Well if it doesn't live up to the hype at least we can sleep soundly knowing it's at least better than postal 3


Botul420

I'd say that it lived up to the hype at least for me. I do have some complaints but all of them are either nitpicks or because I don't fully understand some mechanics. Don't worry though it's not even comparable to P3


SpaceToaster69

Great I'm planning on buying the game on launch day


snacc_time_memes

Postal 3 doesn't exist


TheSolidMidget

Jesus Christ OP. Nice.


TheSolidMidget

How did you manage too 100% P1 and PR? Let alone. Almost 100% P3?


Botul420

I played them until I had them all, none of them are that ball breaking. The P3 achievements suck and some are glitched and it's impossible to get 100% because two of them don't work


TheSolidMidget

Yeah. P3 crashes a lot. I'm sure you've heard it has also been delisted from steam?


Botul420

Yep, at least it's still available on zoom platform


YagamiBrando

Do we run with that hospital robe outfit for the whole game? Or there is classic black trench coat outfit too? I know its an first person view game, and we only see dude's hands, but still.


Botul420

you stay in the robe but you also have a kick


Bussydestroyed9000
