Look at my achievements page on Steam

Most of the Speed Runs done too, just a few kill x swarm with x gun things to go.

Are you kidding me?

Even when I abandoned my team and sprinted through levels, past enemies.. I couldn't get NEAR the speedrun times

Your thoughts, insights, and musings on this matter intrigue me

what sort of masochist would want to spend all that time and effort to get the achievements on this free game?

there's hardly a skill-curve to it... it's just mindless tedium and repetition.

game didn't have any lasting appeal to me

I don't play it much anymore, played abit after the patch...

It's a decent time killer, but they really need to add another campaign
The user-created ones are not very good...

I've never been one to collect achievements for games, apart from BF2 and Halo 3.

People at work compete for the highest gamer score on 360, but I can't see the point.

It's all about the KDR.

For a source engine game, it´s quite hungry. Or hungries than say l4d. I think its because of all the entities and lights. Dunno.

Until this treasure hunt thing and TF2's unlocked items, there wasn't that much point to getting achievements on Steam. I haven't touched Alien Swarm in quite awhile.

I'd like it if steam added a point value to each achievement like GFWL does..

NO!!

If Steam did that then they would need to be as dickish as MS is about achievements. Not only that but then it will lead to people buying loads and loads of games for the sake of padding that number. Without those numbers players still gain the optional extra goals without making it some stupid competition or having to put limits on the number of achievements a game can have.

I agree with DSL. Statpadding ruins games, and giving achievements point value increases the amount of it going on.

I wish they'd add more official campaigns for this game.
