I agree on your comments on the mage vs. catapult as well as this being a mustbuy for BoB owners!

But I'm still happier today than you can imagine. The spider GamerPicture which has also been released is just what I've wanted on my GamerCard for months now. :D


Yeah, those were pretty cool. I really like being the only person I have seen with the Maal pic.

By the way, a random question, but what is your connection to MGC? I notice your gamertag on there sometimes.


Three new members giving praise in a row! Crazy stuff!


The pack is pretty cool so far. I just had that feeling that BoB would have content this week, because I am cool like that. I am only at level 7 right now, but it is really cool. The campaign is exactly what I wanted for the game. My hopes just kept becoming reality. I wanted leaderboards, but didn't think they would be there. Lo and behold there is an overall and individual levels! I wanted new achievements, and boom, there are new achievements! (Even if they went the way of OKX :P)

I haven't been through the mission with the artillery, but they are pretty cool looking so far. :P The calvary is sweet! It is like a grunt and pikeman combined!

Red Kingdom as a tielset is neat too. The best thing so far was the sandstorm level! Those tiles were sweet! One of the best looking levels in the game, up there with the Burning Escape mission, which was just beautiful. :)

Overall, yes, it is a must buy. Can't wait for the next pack. :D

I doubt they'll have a fix up any time soon. patches have to go through certification, etc. hopefully it's a bit quicker than the kaloki one, though. :D

I hope its soon...

Seems like a really stupid thing to get past certification ><

But the odd thing is the achievements aint even on Xbox.com - it still shows 200 Gamerscore total and 12 achievements. Does this mean Microsoft havent even added it to their database yet :s ?

Awesome :D Great news Stay.

Any idea on a release length for the update to fix the achievements bug?

It seems odd that the achievements arnt on Xbox.com, are you guys sure it isnt a mistake on MS's behalf rather than yours?

Glad to see a bunch of new faces...and remember that if you like making maps we've got a contest going on and you can win some cool stuff.

That said, Red Kingdom is great so far. I now have my very first #1 score on BoB ever thanks to this. I'm also trying to savor it and not just rush through it. I seriously need to play some multiplayer though...haven't really at ALL.

Oh, and yay for more content. Maybe I'll even get to preview some of it for XBLArcade.com... :wink:

Have you already encountered this content? Or is this new stuff from after you left?

Isn't it time for some other forum members to try new content? *hint hint* :P

We're looking into the problem now.

Though, I have to ask: an entire new campaign, two new units, and a new environment for the map editor isn't enough to convince you without the achievements?

It's more than enough to convince us, but the bug is stopping many of us. When I heard the pack was out (there was very little fanfare, I stumbled upon it) I was about to run to my 360 and go play, then seconds after I heard the achievements are glitched and I got worried. I don't want to end up earning them and then you patch it and the game doesn't know I got them and then I can't get them again or something. I'd rather just wait.

Like that lengthy post on the second page said, in short; achievements are serious business to many 360 players. You shouldn't have such a whatever attitude towards it if you're going to keep releasing games for the 360. I can promise you that you've made a lot of money off people simply looking for achievements, so treat them well!

(Not saying you don't care, but your post did come off as if you couldn't give less of a crap about people who care about achievements.)

Edit: Also not saying I only play NB games for achievements. I'm a big fan of the games, but I'm also a big fan of achievements. Both are serious business for me!

Entirely incorrect. Small Arms went up to 235gs with three new achievements months ago, with no problems.

I disagree with you there. Stay didn't express a "whatever-attitude" on the achievement problem. He said they were working on fixing it. I, for one, love the whole achievement idea on the 360 and many games have become much longer thanks to achievements. But come on! 30 GS is nothing big. I understand if it were 250 like the Shivering Isles, but 30 GamerScore is nothing to start despairing over - espcially not when they will fix it and when it really is not that hard to "earn it again". We are not talking "Mad Cat Skillz" on Geometry Wars now, are we?

Stay was right - the new tiles, units and missions are much more valuable and interesting than 30 GamerScore, which I will get anyways - for me at least!
