Scout Achievements are seriously BS

[Surf314]

Played for 3 hours tonight and didn't get one.  How they thought people were going to legitimately unlock the weapons I have no idea.

[Fail Medic]

Maybe they should cut back on the number of achievements that require the use of unlockables...

[backfire]

That's what happends when they let players decide the order of the unlocks. You end up having most of the achivements require a weapon that you unlock second or last.

That's what happends when they let players idiots decide the order of the unlocks. You end up having most of the achivements require a weapon that you unlock second or last.

thanks

[Squishy3]

scout achievements have been out forever and I only have like 3, and I don't even know what the requirements are for any of them  ;D

[at0m]

It took me 3 hours to get all 3 unlocks :x

[zaneyard]

i just farmed them, because i dont believe in achievements being anything other than an achievement, as opposed to unlocking something.
also, some of the achievements require me to change the way i play the game. some of them interfere with the quality that i play.
i think that they should come naturally as you play, and/or they shouldn't be required to unlock weapons. it takes the fun out of getting the achievements.

Are you saying the scout's not suppost to kill people? If so, you, sir, are horribly mistaken. Also, that's not really relevent to your quote, thus confusing me.

I instantly got all of my achievements by other means.

They seem hard at first, but I had everything unlocked legitimately in like two or three days of just regular playing.

Hi how are you both. <3 Also achievements for Scout aren't terribly bad for making you play different, unlike Heavies. Just makes you have to use all the unlockables way too much which is fine.
