Outpost finally running at 100%
As many of you know, of the developers that have released games so far on XBLA, NinjaBee has to be my favorite. The number of hours I've spent playing both Outpost Kaloki X and Cloning Clyde are countless. There has always been one issue in this love affair though; two of the twelve achievements in Outpost have been broken since launch. Well not anymore...
Next time you launch the game, it will ask you to update the title, and when you do it's now possible to get those final 40 points for the game. The fix is actually to the amount of time remaining to get the "gold" rating on certain levels, thus allowing you to get all golds in adventure mode as well as gold on the 8 port challenge. Here's the quote from the ninjabee forums:

So while Steve Taylor over at NinjaBee has certainly gotten some of the monkey's off his back about the achievements, something tells me they are going to be replaced quickly by ones asking about the release of Bugs of War.
So, Mr. Taylor, any news? :)

If you read down the form more you can see that lvl 3 is 9:30 not 19 and they upped 8port master to an hour and 10 min.
I have already got the 8 port master and I’m working my way back through adventure mode for gold’s.
Checking MyGamerCard.net today only a few people have gotten either of the last 2 achievements yet. I know this was a popular game and I thought a lot more people would have gotten to playing it as soon as the patch hit but MS doesn't really tell anyone ever what is happening like patch or when games are coming out or really anything so I’m sure not a lot of people have heard that it is fixed.
And then I was looking on the forums to get some tips because I haven't play in a while and noticed they have wiped Outposts forum. Now why do that? MS isn’t doing things vary well me thinks.
But now I’m just rambling on. Sorry

well, i just finished up the achievements and i must say, they should have adjusted the level 7 gold time to something around 8:30. that level is way harder than anything else in adventure story or war story. i kept getting around 9 minutes over and over and finally broke 10 minutes after several hours.
and then i played the eight port challenge, a scenario that was apparently worthy of its own achievement and i beat the gold time by over 15 minutes on my first try. it seems to me that level 7 was more deserving of those 15 gamerpoints.
