Scout achievments!

[Dustoxx]

So do you got them? How many? How? Wich ones were the hardest?Funniest?

I got 23 avhievements now, and they're pretty fun. I like them the most of all the updates. Because the weapons are quite fun and u don't need like all of them to unlock the weapons

So, a friend of my brother was coming to visit him and said he already had them. And i asked how and he used bots. I tougth that couldn't because cheats had to be on. But he did "sv_cheats 0" after the bots and then "retry" the server. Pretty handy tough.

That is how i get to the 20, other 4 were with friends

That moonshot i got with an accident. I was just taunting in a place with a lot of bots and shot somebody in the air. I laughed so hard It's just so cool. I like the one where you need to dodge damage also. Running around a sentry :lol:

So erm, please post what u think!

got em all already. stayed up till 2am yesterday getting this with friends.

 

[Cerious]

Got 22 in about one hour using bots, no joke. Getting the arena ones, especially first blood part 2 is harder than it looks

 

[Icarus]

The way we discovered Out of the Park was amazing

I got 22, and that's all I ever need

So I was having trouble sleeping, and decided to load up TF2 and actually take a look at these. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong, but the "Race for the Pennant" achievement doesn't seem to be registering at all. I've run around a crapton, enough to capture 25 flags and double jump 1000 times. Yet for some reason it thinks I've only run 15 meters. Any clue what I'm doing wrong?

 

[GrimGriz]

Running with a bat out maybe (baseball reference)...

 

[AWESOME-O]

i think 25km with the Drink boost.

No, the running is definitely normal running. One meter is a long step, so it's hard to see why it increases so slowly... I also get something like 15 meters per life. Grim might be onto something, though.

I've only gotten 8 so far, most of which are legit, some of which were done on my own. I'm going to try getting as many achievements as I can with bots today, but I can't imagine how I'd do that in arena. After you retry, you just sit there while you wait for the bots to finish the current match - which they don't, obviously.

Create a server with arena_watchtower, add 1 bot. Retry and it should work. Since you can start a match with 2 players.
And if there are even bots, type"kick bot#". Then u are able to join. Or something like mp_restartround.

I guess that's one of the reasons why you got so little advancement with that achievement. Time airborne doesn't count as running.

I made a quick test. It doesn't matter which weapon is equipped. I started from the spawn in 2Fort, dropped down from the battlement, ran across the bridge and suicided at the entrance of the other base. Always gave me around +13, regardless of the weapon equipped.

In case someone wants to know how far the enemy has to be away to achieve "Moon Shot": It's around the distance from battlement to battlement on 2Fort.

 

[AWESOME-O]

i run quite a few meters today, but still at 0/25000 :|
I ran enough to do the CTF and the CP achievments and i'm quite sure i ran almost always with the baseball bat.

 

[Shmitz]

It wasn't. I tried it without the double jumping either. Still ran considerable distances without it even increasing by one.

I'm up to 289 now, but I seriously have no clue what actually makes it tick up. One meter should be approximately 40 units across (assuming one unit = one inch as usual), which is half the size of a small doorway. I should not have to take more than a few steps to see it tick up one. But so far it never has while I've actually checked the numbers after running a few steps, across a room, or across a map.

 

[Phobos]

The thing is that the advancement just gets saved when you die. I'm not sure about this, but I think if you start a map, run around the whole time without dying once and then disconnect, your progress won't be saved. It's the distance of your previous life that matters. Try to run around a bit and then suicide, you'll see the progress you made added to the achievement tracker.

 

[GrimGriz]

Only valve maps?

 

[Dustoxx]

Only valve maps?

Too bad for me, i was thinking of making a map with 2 teleporters. Only need to press one button and wait.

 

[Phobos]

Only valve maps?

Afaik, it works in custom maps as well. I got progress for it on Frontier and Mach4.

Does the taunt kill of the scout take longer than the ones of the heavy/pyro? He takes his sweet time while pointing to the sky and swinging the bat. And the ragdoll really has to fly at least 25 meters for the achievement. I taunt killed a sniper in Steel, in the sniping room at A. Smacked him right in the head but his ragdoll obviously couldn't fly this far. Wasn't enough for the achievement.

 

[GrimGriz]

Does the taunt kill of the scout take longer than the ones of the heavy/pyro?

I wouldn't be at all surprised if it was standard taunt + average stun time.

 

[Dustoxx]

It's a different taunt+ it takes much longer+ you can stun people+ you can kill people.
