New Game Plus no achievements?

[Andariel Halo]

I want to move on to New Game Plus, but I also want to keep achievement hunting. Why does NG+ not have achievements? Should I start a second colony just for achievements?

This has already been pointed up countless times in the past few days, Mike has said they *might* come back to their decision to remove achievements in NG+, because It is a *tad* silly, but I can see why they'd think that upon launch

while i was waiting for the T5 levels and final challenge i played through the game a second time and i just wont put that one into NG+ i suggest you do the same :)

I get it, changes the value of the achievement if it is easier in NG+... doesn't mean that I wasn't going to try for that little sneaky work around though.

NG+ isnt initially hard, the gimmick of it is the first restart is really easy because you get your formicarium upgrades in missions, but the enemies get significantly harder past that first NG+, I'm on NG+4 on one of my colonies and Im struggling to fight a single Coach Horse in 1.1

NG+ doesn't have achievements because it would make them too easy

I agree about this! please activate achievements!! it is one of few things making it feel like any point. I would welcome the challenge, but still hunting achievement. From I can tell it is not easier. on the contrary!

not true. Only initial one. Then it gets real hard. in NG+ even the smal buggs are a threat througout game.

I think it depends on how you spend your Jelly.....

I mean take leafcutters 3.1 level for instance.....

in base game i'd have to build workers and soldiers to defend and help collect.... afterall the soldiers collect more food than the workers can....

in new game plus mode however.... the upgrades you make in the formicarium carry over.... meaning my workers have the variant that gave them more speed and extra 10 food collection.... making my leafcutter workers able to carry just as much food as a soldier can...

AND I focused only on speed.... so having my workers with 100 extra speed made them insanely fast... so now on new game plus mode I just build 200 workers at tier 1 and they zoom around the map.... to the point they can usually harvest and win the game before the ants can send their majors to attack...

dont remember my time to beat on normal mode... but new game plus I can beat that level in like 19 min like that...

I had 2 colonies on the go. 1 that was my main for the story and NG+, and one that was called 'Achievement farm'. I've 100% the game for now (I know new achievements are coming) and I do believe that new game plus would make the majority of the achievements incredibly easy. Whenever I got stuck on an achievement it was usually because I was taking the wrong approach. There is plenty of guides online. I highly recommend Buff981 on youtube. There guides and advice helped me 100% the game. There is a steam help link Buff981 made as well https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2081049654

I'd love to see NG+ only achievements. Idk what they could be, but it would give me a reason to keep playing.

i've hit a standstill as to certain achievements, they're just impossible for me. New achievements with NG+ would be amazing
