    Achievements bugged?

    It seems I'm not getting the "complete X campaign" achievements, as well as No One Left Behind, Back to Help, Ground Cover, and the zombie ones.

    I also don't have Jump Shot, but that's probably just my lag.

    Lastly, does anyone know if you can melee a hunter in mid-jump?

    You can't play SP for the achievements, if you were trying to. You must play online. You also have to play from start to finish in a scenario (I believe) to get the achievement. Pretty sure you can't just jump into the middle of it and expect to earn it.

    Though, some achievements are actually bugged: http://forums.steampowered.com/forum...d.php?t=751344

    Yes, it's possible to melee him as he's jumping. In fact, it's one of the achievements.

      Yeah it must have been fixed since I finally got Mercy Killer and No-One Left Behind my last play through.

      As for that achievement, I'm gonna need to get lucky with that melee, hell that hunter even leaped through when I was rapid-meleeing. Though I thought it was score a headshot on a leaping hunter? It might be two different ones.

        Yes you can pal. I did No Mercy & Death Toll offline and got the achievement.

          Positive? Because I was going through on the SP campaign for No Mercy and achievements like the one where you kill X amount of Infected would not increase.

                I suppose it's just another case of the achievements being bugged then. I also didn't get a few others I should've gotten in MP from the other night.

                    sort of hurts people with slow pcs but meh

                          Went for akimbo last night, just a heads up...you cant use the mounted guns, it counts as another weapon. I thought that was kind of lame because the mounted gun usually ends up not even being very effective in most maps. Oh well, have to try again tonight.

                          Also, for the one for using no healthpacks the whole campaign...you can still use pain pills right?
