I think its really annoying when an achievement says, for example, win 5 games. But they must have a certain amount of people, might need specific teams, etc. They have basically the whole screen when you click on them, they should give at least a couple more lines of description, say maybe Cannot be created players, must be ranked matches, must be online. I am finding more achievements with some helpers, like; must be solo, must be (insert difficulty), etc. I just find it annoying when you spend 20 minutes + trying to get an achievement, and then you find out it has to be on a harder difficulty, or cannot have custom settings or something. This is my rant! Any thoughts?
In all my experience the achievement description normally says the details whether it should be online or not, is there one game where it doesnt in particular?

I was just using it as an example, I just think that they should think of how people could try to get the achievements easier, and at least include that you can't do them (ie move down difficulty sliders).
Very often I don't have any confusion with the Achievements. In some cases they might've been misleading so that you would've gotten them easier if you had known better.
I agree and disagree. I mean it would be annoying if it doesnt tell you a specific difficulty for example, or if it is on campaign or multiplayer something like that. I have yet to see an achievement that confusing, but sometimes the obscurity is part of the achievement.
*SPOILERS (maybe?)*In half life 2, episode two, the "little rocket man" achievement says "send the elf into orbit" or something along those lines. Now if you've never played the game or talked to anyone, you have no idea what that means until you get farther in the level, and then you are like OH CRAP THATS GONNA SUCK!!!! cant wait to play through the game again!!!!

I'm talking about mostly sports games say nhl, and it says score 3 goals or something, but you can't use sliders, or have to play on superstar, and it doesn't say that, so you spend 20+ minutes and don't get the achievement, it can be very frustrating!
