Yeah, it is.

Try making some of your own up -- we can use all the ideas we can get. (Also, the more, the mechier.)

[blinkin]

"can opener"- do the most damage to enemy armor in a round (or) break through the most segments of armor.

I agree with the OP and must point out that this is remarkably similar to the achievement systems already around in many other popular game titles. I would like to see this added.

[Spirit of the Wolf]

Regicide -- Kill the commander of your own team (negative)
Assassin -- Kill the commander of the other team.

[blinkin]

"civil war surgeon"- destroy the most enemy arm and leg components during a match.
"TAG! you're it!"- have a target highlighted with TAG while they are killed by missiles.

yeah while dealing with the other issues it'd be a nice tide one over drinking game level mechanic. help keep people from taking things too seriously while everything else is up in the air, offline, or on fire. and hilarious little system chat announces when certain things happen unexpectedly might be nice for a chuckle form time to time.

if only the framework for mostly cosmetic mechanics like these were in place, eh?
then again its the tracking system in game that really drives it, so could be a long while.

nevertheless we know they were looking at achievements. might as well see if we can drum up some more eh?

trippin' - best score in a caustic match while playing exclusively in thermal or nv mode. can't decide which seems more appropriate.
shortstop- most lrms fired at target with lock on, that die due to reaching 1000m without landing, but highest lrm damage.

did we do a extended range golden bb kill type achievement?
something along the lines of kill a couple mechs with only extended range fire(the stuff beyond optimal). maybe cut it to the last 25% of extended range.

how about magic bullets- most damage dealt to front armor of a mech from behind/ most damage to rear armor of a mech from it's front.

I wanted Spray 'n Pray for this, but since it is already taken:

Twitchy: continually spreads damage all over a mech but can't seem to hit the same spot twice.

[Spirit of the Wolf]

Mike Tyson -- Clip the ear off of a catapult, then kill it.
Parasite -- Deal the least damage in the match, but have the most kills.
Nevermore -- Kill at least 2 enemy Ravens.
Cheap Shot -- Only kill enemies by shooting them through the back.
Rock'em - Sock'em -- Kill an enemy with an AC/20.
Lethal Feather -- Kill an enemy with a small laser.
Bug Zapper -- Kill a light with a PPC or ER PPC
ADHD -- Shooting at least 4 targets on the other team within 5 seconds total, using a different weapon type each.
Trailer Park -- Have the greatest number of knockdowns in the match.

need a good name for these.

team based- kill entire enemy team in the alphabetical assignment order from spotting.
kill the entire enemy team in reverse alphabetical target assignment order.

was thinking something along the lines of death by numbers for your team dying in enemy target ssignment order alphabetically but it makes little sense >.>

one man army/busybody- at least: 1 kill, 7 assists, time spent capping enemy base, one spotting assist, one component destruction, etc etc.
basically if its part of earning a current bonus, you got it (or would have for things like cap assist) at least once during the same match, AND got a kill and at least a glancing shot on all the rest. AND LIVED. scale it up with more is better tiers.

did we have one for a kill with every weapon type in the same match? missiles, energy, ballistic?

moar gibs? - more than 8 component destruction's in a single alpha strike.

Sesame Street: kill entire enemy team in the alphabetical assignment order from spotting.

For this one, you might need to write the letters down starting with the right letter and moving toward the left...

sdrawssakcaB: kill the entire enemy team in reverse alphabetical target assignment order.

[MilitantMonk]

For all you Centurion pilots out there:

Zombie - Finish match alive but with both right and left torsos destroyed.

[Spirit of the Wolf]

Defanged -- Finish a match with no weapons left, and your AMS ammo gone. (if you had any in the first place.)

[Hauser]

Scarecrow : You have killed raven!

[Myrrdoch]

Headbutt - Kill an enemy with a head-mounted weapon

Powerless - spend the most time in the match powered down

Then We'll fight in the Shade - Recieve 0 damage from missiles in a match

Avenger - kill an enemy mech that has killed a friendly in the past 3 seconds

Hold the Line - Spend the most time inside a friendly-held location (base or capture point)

[Rovertoo]

Back to the Drawing board: Kill yourself by overheating in one alpha

Spare clips: Survive a match with more than %50 ammo left

Crippled: Survive a match after every weapon has been destroyed

Crutch: Survive a match after one leg has been destroyed

Soft Shot: Kill an enemy with a PPC inside it's minimum range

Skull Crusher: Headshot an enemy Atlas

[Spirit of the Wolf]

Softshell -- Survive a match with no armor left.

[DeadlyNerd]

"Don't shoot I'm unarmed" - both arms destroyed

[blinkin]

"it's better to burn out, than fade away"- do the most damage in a round and be the first to die.

thought of this one while listening to some def leppard.

"goin' down in a blaze of glory"- kill at least 2 enemy mechs and die within a span of 30 seconds.

you can thank bon jovi for this one.

How about "I'm 'armless" instead? (read in an Australian accent for maximum lulz)

In keeping with the theme of Bon Jovi:

Livin' On a Prayer -- Survive the match with 0 armor, red internals, no arms, no weapons, one leg, and at most 15% total HP remaining.

Raise Your Hands -- Most arm-mounted weapon shots are above the neutral plane for arm-aiming. (Hey, it's hard to think of stuff sometimes.)

Unarmed as in, without weapons. Weapons are also called arms. Cops can't shoot an unarmed person... IT'S A PUN OKAY?!
