Aperature?

[DeathConvoy]

I've searched the forums, but not found any similar posts - are there any petitions or plans to re-activate the achievements for Aperature?

I'm still having a rough time beating a stage on Normal, still a low level and don't get a great deal of time to play... but it would be nice to unlock the specific achievements there when I do, like the Christmas and Summer events.

Thanks in advance

I believe you are still able to get the map difficulty achievements for Aperture, but not anything else.

You may want to go in with a full 6 man squad instead of randoms being a low level...

No, you don't.

 

[DeathConvoy]

No, you don't.

Thats no good.. why even leave the map there if the rewards are gone

I'd like it if they re-enabled the achievements for the past events, and in order to get various kills, have a white-listed mutator to change the enemies for that stage to the Xmas/Summer event variants...

Yes you are able to get any special event map achievement.

I did Aperture often in Hard. Alone and with others - no effect. And you don't get Evil Santas Lair, too.

Yes you do.

The servers you are on are probably not updated properly. I had a bug in my server for 3 months that prevented any level completion achievements from working. I've managed to get it fixed now, but I get paranoid about it every once in a while. You can defiantely still get the level completion acheivements for the maps.

But to answer the OP's point, I am 100% behind reviving the special event achievements Uber Tuber and Golden Potato, but I've already nposted 2 threads on the issue now, so I think thats enough

My friends and I have gotten map achievements for both Aperature and Santa's long after their promotions or whatever they're called were done.

You're probably doing it with perks disabled by something.

I still got all achievements on all difficulties long after the promotions were gone, hell I only got the xmas ones a few weeks back.

Well, thank you for your posts, I'm going to try it again today (I play only on perk enabled servers ).

Just because the perks are enabled, doesn't mean the Muts and Maps are.

Make sure you look for Whitelisted as well, anything that can 'tamper' with it, or something not on the list can hinder your progress.

Uber Tuber and Golden Potato TWI please revive them. What is the point of achievement, that one cannot obtain. This is the thing i hate about this game (this goes for Xmass achievos too). I can pull it off, I have already done it 3 times - unwelding for G.Potato (and I knew I would not get it, but playing and unwelding was fun). So... yeah, bring them back.

I just got the Normal Aparture achievement last Sunday, in case anyone's still wondering about difficulty achievements.

Because the game isn't all about acheivements perhaps?

The Summer Sideshow and Christmas events may well be repeated. The Portal one almost certainly won't though.

With Aperture, Santas Evil Lair and Abusemnet Park is something worng. I did all the maps instantlz after TRI relesed them, never had anz problem. But when i was helping not that long ago with this maps, some people ware gatting achieves and some not (in same game), it ended like we had to do fiew times every map on all difficulties to get achieve for everybody.

I got an Aperture completion achievement on August when I bought this game, so I guess the achievements work.

One thing I've always thought (and you might fall into this category) is that if you bought the game after the event, the special achievements (IE Uber Tuber and Golden Potato) shouldn't show up on your profile because you never stood a chance to get them.

And as the people who had a chance to get it and didn't.... I think it's a case of "thems the breaks."

I see where you are coming from, but to make something exclusive is not in the best interest of all your players. For myself, I couldn't care less about achievements, but for someone who does why should they be limited. I mean, I was out for 3 weeks when the event was launched. I am sure plenty of people who care about the achievements were in the same position.

 

[kablooie!]

Plenty of people were too busy to find an extra 30 minutes during an entire month? For people who say they care so much about achievements? I find that a bit of a contradiction.... unless somebody went on a month long vacation....

They should make them unlockable again because I don't see any harm it would do... but a fair number of folks who didn't unlock them when they could/should have are blaming Tripwire instead of themselves.... that's all I'm saying.
