Beta ending
« on: February 21, 2013, 10:46:43 AM »
We're planning to go live with the new achievement system at the beginning of the new tour next week.  We are no longer planning to make a full reset of all achievements.  We may reset some individual achievements if they were being incorrectly awarded but most things look like they are functioning properly. 

Once we add the finishing touches and end the beta, we will continue to add new achievements and make modifications as needed.

Today's update adds different reputation values for various achievements and changes star levels.  A few bugs with some achievements not awarding correctly were also squashed.

Thanks for your help reporting bugs and making suggestions.  We are going to keep expanding on this system so we'll keep this forum open for new ideas and suggestions.  We're also going to upload the source files for the achievement icons so that any aspiring artists can come up with icons for use in the game.

New Bomber achievement bugs....   Land 50 sorties in american heavy bomber and land 25 sorties in a B-17....   score/rank clearly shows me having done both, yet achievement shows only 16 or 17 of each....

Could we get a reset of all fighter kill achievements?  :devil  *ducks and covers*  Seriously though, I know the 190s weren't recording kills properly in all achievements for a while, and they probabley weren't the only ones.  (clearly favoritism or predjudice by the powers that be  :noid  :devil  why never any 190 love?  :pray )

I've never flown an F4F since the reset, but it shows me as having seven kills towards the achievement in them.

I think because it is counting your drones landing for the stat, but not for the achievement. Just the lead plane for achievement

Thanks, it was pointed at the wrong plane.  This achievement will get reset when we go live.

On the bomber sorties, there is a longer minimum sortie time for achievement stats than there is for scoring stats.  That can also cause a discrepancy between the two.

Since most of my missions last a couple of hours, I dont think thats it...   just not counting the drones, though they count for everything else... and frankly, they should count:airplane:
