The snowball fight achievements took me forever to get (had to get some help from my wife, who was apparently super bawss at this minigame xD). I did enjoy it, but to be honest, the points in the thread are probably valid.
Like I said, I did enjoy the crap out of it, but I think the whole “win X games with ____ snowball profession” might work a little better. Or maybe keep the one where you score with the presents, but replace the killer achieve with a “Win X games with a selected snowball profession.”
That way it keeps it challenging while still allowing for one slightly easier achievement. I can understand having some that are supposed to be pretty hard, since you only have to claim 12 achieves to get the title, but having both games be that tricky might be a bit much. Shrug
Just my two cents. : )

Hoopa doopa.

Play to win the game not to get the achievements and both will happen fairly quickly.

Not really, seeing as you get zero credit.

YMMV, but I found that when a person or two in the group went out of their way to 1) play the objective and 2) help other players on the team, eventually the bulk of the other players followed suit. Case in point: the guy who let me die a couple of times to get the present I was carrying. After a round or two of helping if they were in a fight they couldn’t handle alone or reviving them when they were downed and they were reviving us right back.
