Stardew Valley probably has the easiest quests to get points very quickly. You get 20 points for every harvest, 10 for every gather. 30 for every fish caught/ monster killed. And 50 points for every bulletin board quest. I got 4000+ points today in about 2.5-3 hours playing.

It would be great if the quests worked for me at all but they don't seem to register. I tried in Stardew Valley, TF2, CSGO and none of them show as completed, doesn't give me any points. Broken af!

For me, I got points added if I had some max booster points available to claim but if not, they don't tally it until max is up.

Not a bug?
You only get 100 a day free. Want more? Pay $$$.

How I look at it it is better not to spend because this al started after I made my sale purchases, before i could reach 1k easily,

Getting points is not a problem (I have way more achievements than I would ever need). It's the max points that is seriously limiting.

This. I start TF2 and get 50K points. But my limit to claim is around 1000 something. Get 1 boost per day and that's it.

True I have 13,000+ points for Minion masters on the 30 mins list. Yet to claim any of it...because I can only claim my PvZ 100 points a day now

And then on top of that you have the design flaw of letting people pick their team when there are substantial potential rewards for winning or ranking high. Even if you disregard that communities will likely band together to organise serious pushes in terms of point gains, the natural avalanche effect of the most prominent day 1 team was pretty obvious.

Getting points is the easy part. It's raising the max amount you can hold that's tricky.

And achievements give 12k points for idling 30m.
You wasted your time (well, unless you were just playing the game as you would anyway).

That is hard-limited by your boost cap. If your claimable points is larger than your boost cap, when you cash in, everything above the cap gets discarded outright. Claiming 100 points but at a loss of the other 4900 points is pretty 'fun'.

They changed that on day 4.
Still the math is borked, and "taking" 100 usually ends up lowering points by 400 or so. Not that it really matters since you get infinite access.

Huh. The more you know, I guess? Kinda hard to keep track with all the silent patches their event is getting. Or maybe that's just my disinterest not making me pay attention? Heh.

I wonder if they'll mess it up in some hilarious fashion before the event is over.

Both yesterday and today it hasn't let me turn in any achievements to turn into points. Says i'm already at my maximum for the day when I'm checking at like 10:05 ... typical Steam I guess.

"Max Points" means maximum points EVER they don't ever reset. You need to buy more games or do some other things which can marginally increase the maximum. So you only get to turn 100 points (the amount it increases daily) into points from achievements.

Points are hardly a problem, so not sure why people are talking about "exploits/easy way to earn points" - Just play a game you've already unlocked achievements in, and you'll get more points than you probably even need. the capacity limit is what you'll be running out of fast.

Points are easy to get, so far I've been using the ones I got from achievements on just two games and I'm nowhere even close to running out. The hard part is raising the maximum, it seems like the only way is by spending quite a bit of money.

I dont understand, isnt it easier just to use the achievements points?, or does this game bypass the max point limit? whats the matter i dont get it.

With the daily 100 coin limit I can re-use my previously 100% cheevo Borderlands 2 for 170 days. Also any telltale game gives a good 10k. Points are a non-issue.

You could also launch a game with a lot of unlocked achievements to get points.

rather people talk about max limit cheats. most ppl have more points then they could ever claim. thanks to the limit since no one can claim the points anyways

Correct me if i am wrong but doing quests of a particular game other than the achievement quest, you still need to increase your max points to claim them or they will be added immediately to your total?

I know it's a shame since I hate getting so many unnecessary achievements but I did it with Zup games.
