Just make it so we unlock all the map-achievements if we complete it on HoE.
I don't want to go an grind normal, hard & suicidal when I already beat the map on HoE.

The question is why wouldn't they reset achievements. Think about it. They are going to change a whole lot of things before the game gets in its final state. Just take a look at the issue from a different perspective. The balance will sure be changed, even some game mechanics during the progress. The circumstances will change, and HoE might be even harder to beat.
It only makes sense to reset them.

HoE may change from now to release. It will probably go in the direction of getting harder if anything so if you manage to get an achievement now and someone has to play it when it's 2-3 times harder then it's not fair for anyone who didn't want to buy into early access. If you are really that good, like really, really that good then you can beat it again.

"Rocker, i don't want to have to do normal, hard and suicidal again, i shouldn't have to grind normal and lower levels just to get the achievements!" Well make a suggestion to unlock all lower level achievements when doing a higher level one. I've been checking ideas and suggestions and haven't seen it yet so if it's that big of an issue then sit your butt down and make a thread to suggest it if it bugs you that much.

It's also making sure that if there were any exploits used to get the achievements in early access or bugs that caused an unlock when it should not have been are gone and it's even on release. It may still just be bragging rights but in any case no one like false achievement.

Finally it's once again an even playing field issue. People should have all the same chances to get all the achievements done first if they want it. If you don't care about achievements then it won't effect you. If you do care then there will be more to unlock anyway and lets be honest, beating those 3 maps isn't to much of an achievement in the first place.

As for those claiming "I don't want to have to play for another 30 hours just getting achievements back, i don't have that kind of time". Don't kind yourself, i have seen some of your steam profiles with 1k+ hours on the first killing floor, it won't matter if you play 100 hours now, you will probably play 900 more hours more on full release.

You all act like you're not going to play the game anymore once it releases. Yes, they will wipe achievements. Yes they will wipe progress. And if you like the game, you're going to play it and earn it all back anyways. If you enjoy playing on HoE, then you'll eventually win on those maps again if you're playing the game. And maybe you'll even have more fun doing it in full release because there will be 6 more perks and a ton of new weapons, and maybe even Zeds.

I just don't understand the fact that people are complaining about stuff in a game that isn't even released yet. If this was a title by most any other company, you wouldn't be playing it right now. It would be getting tested by the people they pay to test it, and we would just accept the product they release. If you don't want to risk losing all of your precious achievements, don't play until release.

There is no curve, anything under hoe is a joke and not worth playing. You can literally camp in a corner with how broken the medic is and survive every wave

Which sounds like feedback you should be giving if that's actually the case rather than whining about things you've stated to be unable to comprehend.

gr8 b8 m8 i r8 it 8/8, no h8. :D:)
please no le epic maymays xDDD, this isn't 9gag.


Back OT, while I question the necessity of resetting achievements, I'm doubtful as to its significance. Looking at the difficulty progression of KF1, I think it's fair to reason that as perks and weapons are added the game will gradually become easier, as the original did. Combine that with higher level players with more experience and better specimen tactics and I bet a lot of people will be beating HoE maps as routine.

Really though, I'm just glad TWI notified us. Far better than one day resetting everything without so much as an FYI.
