1. Introduction
================
This is my first English guide, as the language is the most used on TF2, even
on achievement servers. Anyway, you must know that Valve will release a Scout
Pack and that this guide will be updated as soon as possible.
Also, be aware that Valve did a critical update the 11th December 2008, making
the pyro achievement "Pilot Light" nearly impossible. I'll explain why and how
to maximize your chance to have it.
I'm also a pround member of Hell's Kitchen Community (HK) and I'm also
frequenting UK Man Down (UKMD) servers. These ones are newbie friendly. If HK
is doing a map rotation on its 5 servers (among them, an arena one), UKMD
proposes per server 1 map all day. Personnally, I'm always on Badwater Basin,
for improving sniper skills.
Also, I'm admin for a Medic and Pyro Achievement Server, so, you understand why
I'm doing this guide. A lot of experience on them taught me how to unlock
achievements.
RECOMMANDATION: Use always your normal weapons unless you're required to use
the upgraded one. Play always on official maps for being sure to get the ones
requiring those - you'll not get them if you're playing on modified maps using
the official ones (like db_heights who is a payload map based on Dustbowl for
example). You can probably get the achievements on custom map but if you can't
just switch back to servers proposing official maps. It happens that a server
isn't counting your advancement. Even on achievement servers.
THANKS TO:
- The makers of TF2 and Valve (except for Pilot Light)
- HK Clan and Community (Jen, Meg, Eri, Avocado, Tuck, Dominare, Kitiana, Cloud,
Loki, P!gs, Pluto, Buffbod and all the others I'm forgetting)
- The usual people hanging on achievement server or those who were (Sly Spy,
Rebellion, Zabi, Ruzli, Ryan, Quantum and all the others I'm also forgetting)
- UKMD people (Stu Fate, Safari Jim and the others)
- TF2 Wiki for having confirmed my guess for preventive medicine

=================
2. Official Maps
=================
It's perhaps an achievement guide but I feel that I need to add the description
of the official maps.
== PAYLOAD MAPS ==
Description: Basically, a Payload map is a map with Blu in attack and Red in
defense. The goal is to push a cart and win checkpoints. Badwater Basin is a
single push, Goldrush has three stages.
Specificity: Attack/Defense
Maps: Badwater Basin, Goldrush
== ARENA MAPS ==
Description: Arena maps are a sort of sudden death match. When you're joining
a server, you can't join the fight currently happening, after, yes. You have to
kill every enemy but if you're killed, you don't respawn. A capture point is
enable if the fight is beginning to be too long.
Specificity: Sudden Death sort
Maps: Lumberyard, Ravine, Well, Granary, Badlands
== CAPTURE POINTS MAPS ==
1) CAPTURE POINT
Description: A normal Capture Point map is a map where Red and Blu are trying
to cap a middle point and each other points. Neither Red or Blu are in attack
or defense like in Dustbowl or in Badwater, meaning that some achievements
requiring that kind of map can't be achieved there.
Specificity: Middle point is belonging to none of the teams when the round is
starting. If the winning team isn't able to cap the last point before time is
running out, Sudden Death is activated.
Maps: Well(CP), Granary, Fastlane, Badlands
2) CAPTURE POINT ASSAULT
The bases are the same: capturing points. The difference with a normal CP map
is that Blu is in attack and Red in defense, like in Badwater or Goldrush. Blu
has to capture the Red points while Red is defending them.
Specificity: Attack/Defense
Maps: Dustbowl, GravelPit, Steel
== CAPTURE THE FLAG MAPS ==
Description: Basically, it's about to capture the enemy intelligence and to
bring it back to your base. Neither Red or Blu are in defense/attack. Intel is
staying for +/- 1 or 2 minutes on the ground if it's dropped and returns in
intel room if nobody is picking it.
Specificity: Flag = Filecase. Also, sudden death can be activated if the teams
are tied.
Maps: 2Fort, Turbine, Well(CTF)
== TERRITORIAL CONTROL ==
Description: It's a sort of CP map, where Blu and Red are trying to cap each
other points but here, it's only one by one. You have to cap a point in order
to control that area while you're the other team in another area they're
controling. But if they manage to cap the point you've won, they'll be back
in that area and defending it again.
Specificity: Sudden death is activated if nobody is capturing points. If a team
who loses a CP is winning it again, a new round will be triggered with the
losing team forced to capture it again if they want to win.
Maps: Hydro
=======================
3. General Achievements
=======================
General Achievements were the first achievement to be released with TF2/Orange
Box. As they're not in a class-pack, I'm not putting the ones specific to a
class apart.
HARD TO KILL
------------
*Objective: Get five kills in a row without dying.
Very easy to get if you choose the right classes or if you're ubered. Being a
Pyro, a Heavy or a Demoman can be sufficient for newbies. If you're a good
sniper or spy, you can get it easily.
*How did I unlock it?
By being pyro when I was a newbie, it was only after a few plays.
*In other languages:
FR: Indestructible
MASTER OF DISGUISE
------------------
*Objective: Trick an opposing Medic into Healing a Spy.
The goal is to be healed by an opposing Medic. And trust me, it's easy to get
because nearly all medics are healing randomly, myself included. It's not always
easy to do the difference between a teammate and a disguised spy. Just be
disguised and call medic.
*How did I unlock it?
Only recently, while helping on achievement server with Hypocritical Oath and
FYI I'm a Medic.
*In other languages:
FR: L'art du camouflage
GREY MATTER
-----------
*Objective: Get 25 Headshots as a Sniper
It's not as easy as it sounds. Being a newbie sniper, you'll be killed a few
times by skilled snipers if you're trying to get them. But don't worry, I got
it when I was a newbie one, so, you can have it if you're not trying to be
everytime a sniper. It's not in one life, so, don't worry too early. Just aim
for the head of the enemy and fire.
2Fort is the most useful map for that, with the balconies in front of each
others, mostly sniper decks. Badwater Basin, some stages of Goldrush and Dusbowl
are also appropriate for the kills.
*How did I unlock it?
By always being a sniper on 2Fort, as I was imposing myself a code: no sniping
on other maps until I've improved.
*In other languages:
FR: Matière grise
POWERHOUSE OFFENSE
------------------
*Objective: Win 2Fort with a Shutout
The objective is to steal 4 times the enemy's intel without having yours stolen.
You need to be in a good team for that but it can be achieved, trust me. It's
more a teamwork than a single act, so, don't cry because you didn't get it the
first time.
The fast way to unlock it is to create a server with 2Fort and to steal 4 times
the intel. I don't know if it's still possible or not.
*How did I unlock it?
Using the fast way: creating the server with 2Fort and stealing the intel.
*In other languages:
FR: Infraction centrale électrique
LIGHTNING OFFENSE
-----------------
*Objective: Win Well in less than 5 Minutes.
It's again a teamwork achievement. You have to cap the middle point and the
two enemy points on Well in less than 5 Minutes. Trust me, it can be done if
you have a totally disorganised team in front of you, with pyros who aren't
spychecking or with no engineers.
The best way to have it is to sent one or two scouts/spy to the enemy cap
point for getting the cap just after the middle point one. A scout is counting
for two persons and the last point is always faster to cap than the others.
*How did I unlock it?
Good question, I do not remember it. Probably with the "create a server" for
exploring the map.
*In other languages:
FR: Infraction éclair
RELENTLESS OFFENSE
------------------
*Objective: Win Hydro without giving up a Capture.
Hydro is a map with different stages: 1 capture point per stage. While trying
to get the enemy's CP, you have to defent yours. I've been into weak teams that
kept being rolled by the others, despite some of us being advanced players and
trying to fight but without a good back-up, it's not possible. You have just
to get on the right team for getting this one.
*How did I unlock it?
Using the fast way: creating the server with Hydro.
*In other languages:
FR: Infraction imparable
IMPENETRABLE DEFENSE
--------------------
*Objective: Defend Dustbowl without giving up a Capture.
By experience, I know that in 95% of rounds, the first cap point in the first
stage of Dustbowl is always captured. But I've been into teams that couldn't
get that first CP. So, it's again a teamwork here.
*How did I unlock it?
Using the fast way: creating the server with Dustbowl and playing red.
*In other languages:
FR: Défense impénétrable
IMPOSSIBLE DEFENSE
------------------
*Objective: Defend Gravelpit without giving up a Capture.
Again, like for Impenetrable Defense, 98% of rounds are witnessing a cap, even
in the last seconds. And not as in Dustbowl, where the blu team has to cap the
first CP before going for the second, Gravelpit is having 3 CP. A and B can be
captured in the same time for unlocking C. So, you have to defend A AND B for
getting this achievement. B is always harder to cap than A, as everyone is
generally getting on B first.
*How did I unlock it?
Using the fast way: creating the server with Gravelpit and playing red.
*In other languages:
FR: Defense impossible
HEAD OF THE CLASS
-----------------
*objective: Play a complete round with every Class.
It's easy to achieve this one: just get on a map and play a round by being one
of the nine classes during all the round.
*How did I unlock it?
Using the fast way: creating the server with a map and playing a complete round
with a class.
*In other languages:
FR: Tête de classe
WORLD TRAVELER
--------------
*Objective: Play a complete Game on every Map.
It's also easy to achieve it, for Well (CP), Badwater Basin and 2Fort, you have
just to play the map, for Dustbowl, Hydro and Goldrush, you have to get through
all the stages though I'm not sure for these three is a round is sufficient or
not. Don't forget that you need to be at the start and at the end of the round
for being credited.
Don't worry though, you have only to play on these 6 official maps.
*How did I unlock it?
Using the fast way: creating several servers one after one and play a map. You
can combine it with the Offense map.
*In other languages:
FR: Globe-Trotter
TEAM DOCTOR
-----------
*Objective: Accumulate 25000 Heal Points as a Medic
You don't have to do it in one life, it's just an accumilation of points game
after game. Just heal, heal and heal. Once you're up to 25 000 points, you have
to be killed for getting it. And trust me, you'll be often killed so, it's not
a problem for having it.
*How did I unlock it?
My main class is medic, so, you understand that I got it real fast. Just heal,
heal and provide ubers for winning.
*In other languages:
FR: Super Doc
FLAMETHROWER
------------
*Objective: Set five enemies on fire in 30 seconds
It's also an easy one, be a pyro and do a rush in the enemy line without being
killed. Another way to have it is to team with a medic who'll provide uber.
*How did I unlock it?
On Dustbowl stage 1 though I'm not remembering if I was a blu or a red at the
time.
*In other languages:
FR: Lance-flammes
SENTRYGUNNER
------------
*Objective: Kill 10 people with a single Sentry Gun
Your sentry can't be destroyed or else you have to restart the achievement at
the beginning. Just be assured that you're guarded by pyros or anything else
that can prevent you to be killed or your sentry to be destroyed.
*How did I unlock it?
On Dustbowl stage 2 first cap point. My sentry was next to the stairs of the
building and did get 11 kills because blu team was just trying to get to my
sentry without uber and by the stairs.
*In other languages:
FR: Mitrailleuse
NEMESIS
-------
*Objective: Get Five Revenge Kills.
Just kill five people dominating you. It's not hard to get.
*How did I unlock it?
By focusing on people dominating me.
*In other languages:
FR: Bête noire
WITH FRIENDS LIKE THESE
-----------------------
*Objective: Play with 8 Friends on the Friends List.
You have to add people as your friends, do it with the players you're playing
the most. Then, just try to play a game with 8 or more on the same server. It's
rare to obtain this way though.
*How did I unlock it?
By pure fate. I was playing on HK private server for a Guys vs Girls matches
and most of the players were already on my friend lists.
*In other languages:
FR: Avec des amis comme ça...
DYNASTY
-------
*Objective: Win 20 Games.
Just win 20 games and you'll get it. No matter if you're loosing between each
victory, it's not 20 games in a row.
*How did I unlock it?
I began achieving it by creating servers for exploring the map but then, I
finished it during real fights. I couldn't stand the idea to get it by myself
and not with a nice teamwork.
*In other languages:
FR: Dynasty
HARDCORE
--------
*Objective: Kill 1000 enemies
It's also an easy one to get. Just kill, no matter the class or the map or the
team. For getting more kills, don't play medic or engineer because for the
former, you'll be more healing than killing and for the latter, you'll be more
focused on your buildings and spies than trying to kill the adversaries.
*How did I unlock it?
By killing people, mainly as a Pyro (even if I did some kills as soldier or
sniper). It was before the packs updates, so, at that time, I was focusing as
Medic or Pyro.
*In other languages:
FR: Boucherie
============
4. Pyro Pack
============
The Pyro Pack was released in 2008 and is easy to achieve on achievement
server (particularly on the one I'm admin of).
You have three milestones to get for unlocking the upgraded weapons. It's just
a matter of getting a certain number of achievement.
Mini-site: http://steamgames.com/tf2/pyro/
FIRST MILESTONE
---------------
* Objective: Get 10 achievements
* Unlocked Weapon : Flaregun (alternative of Shotgun)
*In other languages:
FR: Pyro, étape 1
SECOND MILESTONE
----------------
* Objective: Get 16 achievements
* Unlocked Weapon : Backburner (alternative of Flamethrower)
*In other languages:
FR: Pyro, étape 2
THIRD MILESTONE
---------------
* Objective: Get 22 achievements
* Unlocked Weapon : Axetinguisher (alternative of Axe)
*In other languages:
FR: Pyro, étape 3
COMBINED FIRE
-------------
*Objective: Use the Shotgun to kill any enemies that have been lit on fire.
For being sure to kill an lit on fire enemy, do it yourself. Put on fire and
then switch to your shotgun and kill. You can't have it with flaregun equipped.
*How did I unlock it?
I'm not a switcher when it comes to pyro but with flaregun, it changed. So, as
I prefer to be equipped with the flaregun during rounds, I got Combined Fire on
achievement server.
*In other languages:
FR: Feu nourri
HOT ON YOUR HEELS
-----------------
*Objective: Kill 50 enemies from behind.
The Backburner can be a great helper as it's giving critical shots when you're
putting people on fire by behind. It's also easy to get this one as you can
always find a way to be behind, like in Badwater, be a red pyro and just get in
the tunnel by behind when blu are pushing it.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally, not thinking about this achievement. Just focuse on doing
your duty and you'll get it quickly.
*In other languages:
FR: Sur vos talons
FIREWALL
--------
*Objective: Ignite 5 spies having a sapper on friendly building
For getting it, if you're seeing a spy putting sappers on your buildings, just
put him on fire. Kill him isn't necessary but I recommand to you to do it
because you're playing for the victory and letting a spy alive is a bad error.
*How did I unlock it?
By spraying a lot of fire when I saw a building being sapped. If the engi is
struggling with sappers and a spy who is insisting, you don't have to hesitate.
Don't let your engi down.
*In other languages:
FR: Pare-feu
I FRY
-----
*Objective: Ignite 10 disguised spies
Just ignite 10 disguised spies for getting it. Generally, staying near sentries
is the best way to get it.
*How did I unlock it?
By spraying a lot of fire when I was spychecking.
*In other languages:
FR: Friture
GOT A LIGHT?
------------
*Objective: Ignite a spy throwing his cigarette
This achievement requires that a spy is taunting while having his disguise kit.
I don't know a lot of players who are doing this taunt ingame but it can happen.
Just put him on fire and kill him if you want, because it will count for Dance
Dance Immolation.
*How did I unlock it?
On achievement server, someone was being a spy for achievement and I took the
opportunity to do it.
*In other languages:
FR: Vous avez du feu?
SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION
----------------------
*Objective: Ignite 10 cloaked spies
You have to ignite invisible spies for getting it. Normally, being near engis
and sentries is a good way to reveal cloaked spies.
*How did I unlock it?
By spraying a lot of fire when I was spychecking.
*In other languages:
FR: Combustion spontanée
SECOND DEGREE KILL
------------------
*Objective: Kill a burning enemy who was ignited by another Pyro.
It's also easy to get this one if you're two pyros rushing towards enemies. Or
you can still use your shotgun if you don't want to waste flamethrower ammo.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally.
*In other languages:
FR: Brûlure au second degré
COOKING THE BOOKS
-----------------
*Objective: Ignite 5 enemies carrying your intel
This is an achievement to do when you're on an CTF map like 2Fort or Well(CTF)
or Turbine. Just put fire on people carrying your intel.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing on 2Fort and putting on fire people trying to get my intel.
*In other languages:
FR: Brûlez les livres
BAPTISM BY FIRE
---------------
*Objective: Force 10 enemies to jump into water while lit on fire.
It's simple: put on fire people on maps with water and the reflex will be to
jump into it when you're near it. 2Fort and Well(CP) can be useful.
*How did I unlock it?
I was always killed before putting my opponent on fire, so, yes, I got it on
achievement server with pool.
*In other languages:
FR: Baptême du feu
PLAN B
------
*Objective: Kill 10 people under water
The best way to get it is to play with your shotgun or your axe as the fire
weapons don't love water. 2Fort and Well are particularly adapted to that
achievement.
*How did I unlock it?
On achievement server as I wasn't able to kill an enemy during real fight.
*In other languages:
FR: Plan B
NEXT OF KINDLING
----------------
*Objective: Ignite an enemy, and the Medic healing him.
There is no easiest achievement than this one. It's very easy to ignite an
enemy and the medic healing him. Not working with Pyro/Medic duo.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally. I've said it: it's very easy to get on fighting servers.
*In other languages:
FR: Petit bois
TRAILBLAZER
-----------
*Objective: Ignite 10 people having taken a teleporter recently
It's easy to get it when you're on attack/defense map as
1) Blue: you can have quickly in the first CP people getting out of
teleporter (spawn point being far from the current battleground)
2) Red: you can have them when you're defending the last point as generally
blue are taking teleporter due to the distance between spawn point and CP.
Others maps are also working, so, play as you want.
People who took a teleporter are having a sort of trail behind them.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally, you know, teleported people tend to run towards your team,
so, it's not a problem.
*In other languages:
FR: Pionner
ARSONIST
--------
*Objective: Kill 50 buildings made by engineers
It's also easy to get it when you're ubered and getting sentries. Anyway, every
building is counting: sentry, dispenser, entrance and exit teleporter. It should
be easy for you to get it.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally. I'm not often ubered but I can destroy buildings like exit
teleporters or abandoned dispensers.
*In other languages:
FR: Pyromane
PYROMANCER
----------
*Objective: Make 1 million of fire damage
This is a long achievement, as getting 1 million of fire is really long to do.
People tend to say that on servers with only bots, you have to play during two
hours straight for getting it. Also, it's not a matter of doing it in one life.
Another thing to know is that for adding the damage you're doing to your total,
you have be killed and respawn. It's the same for getting the achievement.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally for 500 000 damage and by getting the rest on achievement
server. It wasn't 500 000 straight but for example, I was at 465 000, so, I
decided to reach the 500 000.
It was the last achievement I've unlocked for getting the maximum.
*In other languages:
FR: Pyromancien
OMGWTFBBQ
---------
*Objective: Kill a player with a taunt
You have to taunt when you're equipped with shotgun/flaregun. Be near an enemy
and perform it. It's an instant kill. Doesn't work during Humiliation Time
(when you're the winner and that you can kill the rest of the opponent without
fearing shooting).
*How did I unlock it?
Achievement servers with bots are wonderful for it.
*In other languages:
FR: OMGWTFBBQ
CAMP FIRE
---------
*Objective: Kill 3 enemies in a row, all within the same area.
It's also an easy one. You have just to kill 3 people nearly at the same time
and in the same area. You can do it when everyone is massing on their CP for
example.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally.
*In other languages:
FR: Feu de camp
FIRE AND FORGET
---------------
*Objective: Kill 15 enemies while you're dead.
Fire is doing wonders: you're killed and so, in wait for a spawn but the people
you've ignited before your death can be still killed by your fire. It's easy to
get on a normal server, I don't understand why people come to get it on
achievement server.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally.
*In other languages:
FR: Fire and forget
LUMBERJACK
----------
*Objective: Kill 3 people with the Axe in one life.
It's an hard one. Try to kill people during melee without dying. You'll see
that it's nearly impossible unless you're in a sudden death - melee only round
or if you're on a melee server.
*How did I unlock it?
Achievement servers with bots are wonderful for it and for bad meleers like me.
*In other languages:
FR: Bûcheron
CLEARCUTTER
-----------
*Objective: Kill 6 people with the Axe in one life.
It's an hard one. Try to kill people during melee without dying. You'll see
that it's nearly impossible unless you're in a sudden death - melee only round
or if you're on a melee server.
*How did I unlock it?
Achievement servers with bots are wonderful for it and for bad meleers like me.
*In other languages:
FR: Elagueur
FIREWATCH
---------
*Objective: Ignite 10 snipers while they are zoomed in.
Igniting any sniper isn't wise because you need him to zoom for this achievement
and if not, it's useless, not for the team though. It's also a easy one as the
sniper vision while zoomed is reduced, so, you can get them by the side or even
by behind.
You can use your Flare gun to do it.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally.
*In other languages:
FR: Feu rapproché
MAKIN BACON'
-----------
*Objective: Kill 50 Heavies with the Flamethrower.
That's not a tough one but still, killing an heavy with a flamethrower isn't as
easy as it sounds. Heavies have 300 HP and a minigun that can really kill you
in a matter of seconds. Yet, it's possible to do it.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally.
*In other languages:
FR: Je prépare le casse-croûte
BARBEQUEQ
---------
*Objective: Make leave the server a dominated player
Dominate someone and just hope that he'll quit the server. Or make him ragequit
by keeping killing him. Don't be killed by this player though.
*How did I unlock it?
I was playing on Steel though I don't remember if I was a red or blue but my
team won the round and a player I was dominating left the game. I don't know if
he was raging against the fact that he lost or he was just leaving because of
something else. I was surprised to get it as it was one of the few that I
thought that I would get on achievement server.

BURN WARD
---------
*Objective: Ignite 3 medics with ubercharge ready but not deployed
Usually, medics are ubering once they have uber. But sometimes, the medic and
his patient must wait the right moment for uber while they're still moving
towards destination. This is your chance to ignite the medic before his uber.
You can even make him uber earlier than expected and buy some seconds for your
team. To spot a medic with ubercharge ready, just spot the medics with lightning
on their medigun. Don't mistake a kritzkrieg who is currently working and the
non deployed ubercharge.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally. Trust me, a medic with uber ready who is too far from the
objective (sentries for example) is a great target for you.

FR: En service
DANCE DANCE IMMOLATION
----------------------
*Objective: Kill three enemies taunting
Well, yes, some players are taunting ingame, like a sniper for example. And yes,
I got it normally. Even engineers are taunting between them. Or an Heavy
taunting with fists for instant kill. So, just kill them when they're taunting,
not after the end of the taunt (it often happens because well, it's hard to tell
when the enemy will die). It's working also during humilation time.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally. I suppose that my victims were trying to get Freezer Burn.
*In other languages:
FR: Dance de l'immolation
FREEZER BURN
------------
*Objective: Provide 3 freezecam shots with your taunt to an enemy you killed.
For getting this one, avoid all instant respawn servers because you need a time
for it and if you don't have time, the enemy doesn't have the freezecam shot,
with his killer picture.
Kill an enemy, press G for the taunt and the third time, you'll get it. Be aware
that the enemy DOES NOT HAVE TO take the screenshot of it.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally, I just taunted when I was sure that I was the killer. I got
it quickly.
*In other languages:
FR: Brûlure de congélation
HOTSHOT
-------
*Objective: Kill a soldier by deflecting a critical rocket of his.
For this achievement, you have to be equipped with the normal flamethrower, as
the Backburner doesn't have an airblast function.
Just deflect a blue glowing rocket on the soldier firing it by right clicking.
Be aware that it's not always easy to judge when to airblast.
*How did I unlock it?
On achievement server, I'm not a good airblaster, so, during a fight, it was
impossible for me.
*In other languages:
FR: Chaud devant
HOT POTATO
----------
*Objective: Deflect 100 projectiles.
A lot of players think that you have to deflect 100 projectiles only coming from
soldiers. Not only it will a pain in the ass because it's one rocket at the time
but also, you have high chance to miss them.
The achievement can be done by deflecting stickies on the ground or grenades.
Trust me, stickies are a way to get it faster as you can deflect a lot at the
same time. Just think that a Demoman can put 8 stickies maximum.
Also, when I say deflect, it's the airblast, so, you must be equipped with the
normal flamethrower.
*How did I unlock it?
83 projectiles (stickies mainly) were deflected normally. The rest was achieved
on the achievement server.

FR: Patate chaude
FIREFIGHTER
-----------
*Objective: Kill 500 enemies as pyro
Just kill, kill and kill enemies. When you'll get this one, you'll be half-way
to Firechief.
*How did I unlock it?
By killing people. Playing normally if you prefer.
*In other languages:
FR: Guerrier du feu
FIRECHIEF
---------
*Objective: Kill 1000 enemies as pyro
Like for Hardcore, you have to kill 1000 enemies but as pyro. It's an
achievement which doesn't require your attention, as if you're playing pyro,
you'll be killing people. Don't forget that it's not in one life.
*How did I unlock it?
By killing people. Playing normally if you prefer.
*In other languages:
FR: Pompier en chef
PYROTECHNICS
------------
*Objective: Kill three enemies in one ubercharge
I think it's not working with kritzkrieg but I'm not sure about it. Anyway, just
be ubered and kill three enemies. It's a really easy one to get as medics are
ubering Heavies/Demos/Soldiers/Pyros most of the time.
*How did I unlock it?
Being ubered at the beginning of Badwater Basin.
*In other languages:
FR: Pyrotechnique
ATTENTION GETTER
----------------
*Objective: Ignite 100 enemies with the Flare Gun.
You have to unlock this weapon (first milestone) for getting this achievement.
Flaregun can ignite from distance an enemy, so, it can be useful when trying to
ignite people in their spawn (Badwater/Goldrush/Dustbowl Stage 1 when on red)
or to ignite people on CP, particularly on E on Steel Map when you have a scout
on it.
*How did I unlock it?
By throwing flares, mainly on Fastlane.
*In other languages:
FR: Angle d'approche
PILOT LIGHT
-----------
*Objective: Ignite a rocket jumping soldier when he's in midair
It was an easy one to get before the 11th December 2008. Valve just added a
fire under the feet when rocket jumping. It was also added to Demoman but it
hasn't consequences.
For Pilot Light, unfortunately, yes, it's important. The added fire makes count
as ignited the soldier. And if the soldier is ignited, spraying fire on him is
useless as it's already ignited.
So, the only moment you can get it is when the soldier is at the early beginning
of the jump or at the end. People can get it by crouching and aiming above the
soldier's head for having it instantly. If you're on achievement server, ask
for a medic for healing you, because it will take time to do it.
I've been myself a soldier and it took me nearly between 30 minutes and one hour
to help a pyro to get it.
I'm still waiting for an update and the latest did only fixes a problem with
cloaked spies near dispensers. Another way to spot them disappearing.
Rebellion and I are still trying to find a quickier way to get it than the
actual one.
*How did I unlock it?
Before the 11th December 2008. Lucky me. Just by igniting on Badwater Basin a
soldier rocket jumping for getting on the heighs above the tunnel.
*In other languages:
FR: Lampe témoin
CONTROLLED BURN
---------------
*Objective: Ignite 50 enemies Capturing a friendly Control Point.
Just stay near your CP and you'll eventually get some spies, scouts or anything
that want to capture your point. If you're on achievement server where the fight
isn't present and that someone is willing to help you to get it, don't kill him
or her as igniting is sufficient. In a real fight server, it's easier to kill
but even if the opponent dies out of point, he was ignited, so, it has counted.
The payload counts as a 'control point'too.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally on Dustbowl/Well(CP)/Badlands/Steel and every map with CP.
Badwater and Goldrush are also good for it.
*In other languages:
FR: Feu maîtrisé
DEAD HEAT
---------
*Objective: Kill an enemy in the same second that he kills you.
It's somewhere easy to get it: kill an enemy in the same time he'll kill you.
It will depend of your opponent's behavior. In achievement server, the one I'm
hanging around, the best way to do it is to flame bots and kill yourself by
writing kill in console.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally as a pyro. If you're not thinking about getting that
achievement, you'll get it quickly because it will not be what you're searching
to do.
*In other languages:
FR: Ex-aequo
WEENIE ROAST
------------
*Objective: Have 2 enemy Scouts on fire at the same time
Just put fire on 2 scouts. You'll find a lot with the next pack update but you
can also have scout rushs on Gravelpit, Granary, Well, Fastlane, Badlands,
Lumberyard or Steel.
*How did I unlock it?
I don't remember where or how, but it was by playing normally.
*In other languages:
FR: Rôti de lavettes
**NOTE**
It's not because I'm hanging around achievements servers and having my stats
messed up that I did have all my achievements on these. I've done some hard
achievements during fight and it took me time to get on an achievement server.
=============
5. Medic Pack
=============
The Medic Pack was released in 2008 and is hard to achieve as the medic isn't
really equipped for kills.
You have three milestones to get for unlocking the upgraded weapons. It's just
a matter of getting a certain number of achievement.
Mini-site: http://steamgames.com/tf2/goldrush/
FIRST MILESTONE
---------------
* Objective: Get 10 achievements
* Unlocked Weapon : Blutsauger (alternative of Syringue Gun)
*In other languages:
FR: Medic, étape 1
SECOND MILESTONE
----------------
* Objective: Get 16 achievements
* Unlocked Weapon : Kritzkrieg Gun (alternative of Medigun)
*In other languages:
FR: Medic, étape 2
THIRD MILESTONE
---------------
* Objective: Get 22 achievements
* Unlocked Weapon : Ubersaw (alternative of Bonesaw)
*In other languages:
FR: Medic, étape 3
AUTOPSY REPORT
--------------
*Objective: Provide a freezecam shot to an enemy you've killed
For getting this one, avoid all instant respawn servers because you need a time
for it and if you don't have time, the enemy doesn't have the freezecam shot,
with his killer picture.
Kill an enemy, press G for the taunt and you'll get it.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally though that it was on HK server where we were 3 and we were
meleeing. We were speaking about achievement and the HK member let me kill him
for it.
*In other languages:
FR: Rapport d'autopsie
UBI CONCORDIA, IBI VICTORIA
---------------------------
*Objective: Assist in killing five enemies on an enemy Control Point in a
single life.
There is 4 important points here:
1) ASSIST: You don't have to kill enemies, you have to heal someone killing them
2) FIVE: I know that it's hard to get it when you're fighting but one or two
enemies aren't sufficient. It's five enemies.
3) ENEMY CP: It's not about people trying to capture your CP, it's about people
on their own CP (defending it for example)
4) SINGLE LIFE: Don't be killed. Or else, counter is back to zero.
So, basically, you have to heal players that are killing enemies standing on
their own CP. All maps with CP will do the trick. I don't think that payload
maps are giving this achievement.
*How did I unlock it?
On achievement server. Medics aren't really protected when it comes to fighting.
*In other languages:
FR: L'union fait la force
BIG PHARMA
----------
*Objective: Assist a Heavy in killing 20 enemies without dying.
That achievement is also hard to get as killing 20 enemies without dying is
tricky, especially with spies hanging around you. A spawncamping can be a tactic
for it but I don't advise you to do it without checking server rules first. Some
are forbidding the spawncamping with an only exit (HK servers are).
Why not heal an heavy defending a CP? It can eventually work, especially if you
can deliver some uber.
*How did I unlock it?
On achievement server. Trust me or not but I was healing an heavy without
thinking about this achievement, I was probably aiming for Blunt Trauma.
*In other languages:
FR: Pharmacie lourde
CONSULTATION
------------
*Objective: Assist a fellow Medic in killing five enemies in a single life.
Contrary to popular belief, you don't have to uber the medic doing the kills for
getting this achievement. You have just to assist him while staying alive. Some
people use a medic/medic combo for disorienting the other teams. Think about,
two ubercharges for one rush!
*How did I unlock it?
On achievement server. Where I'm playing, generally, a Medic playing combat
isn't well seen, especially when you're healing one while teammates are burning
to death next to you.
*In other languages:
FR: Consultation
AUTOCLAVE
---------
*Objective: Assist in burning five enemies with a single Ubercharge on a Pyro.
One of the easiest achievements to get during fight. Indeed, a Pyro is always
spraying fire while ubered, so it's easy to get that one if you're not saving
it for a sentry. Don't forget that in one singe uber that you need to do it.
It isn't working with Kritzkrieg, so, you have to be equipped with normal
medigun.
*How did I unlock it?
By ubering a pyro while playing. As I've said, it's easy to get this one,
especially if you're an advanced medic and know how to uber.
*In other languages:
FR: Autoclave
MEDICAL BREAKTHROUGH
--------------------
*Objective: Assist in destroying five enemy Engineer Buildings with a single
Ubercharge on a Demoman.
It sounds as an easy one but it's not. Engineers don't build next to each other
(unless they're newbies in this class) and generally, your ubercharge can't
have all because of airblasting pyro and being pushed back by sentries. Oh yeah,
your demoman has to use his stickies, it's faster and it's deadly.
It's not working with kritz.
*How did I unlock it?
Ubering a demoman for last CP in Dustbowl Stage. What is weird is that I also
helped someone to get it in the same way.
*In other languages:
FR: Percée médicale
BLUNT TRAUMA
------------
*Objective: Assist in punching two enemies with a single Ubercharge on a Heavy.
Like for the other ubercharge achievements, you have to do it in a single life.
Normally, it should be easy to get it during a match but well, you do know that
you'll uber heavies while firing with miniguns. You can ask him to use his fists
or gloves to help you to do it. You're ubered, so, nobody can kill you or the
heavy and it's only two enemies.
It doens't work with kritz, so, use your normal medigun for it. Contrary to
that, having an Heavy with gloves isn't preventing you to have it.
*How did I unlock it?
Ubering a Heavy on achievement server. I didn't want to waste uber for it during
a fight. That's also why when I got Photostroika as Heavy, I presented my
apologizes to the team for having let them down.
*In other languages:
FR: Lobotomie
YOU'LL FEEL A LITTLE PRICK
--------------------------
*Objective: Assist in killing three enemies with a single Ubercharge on a Scout.
You have just to uber a scout who is killing enemies. The problem is the speed
of that class: you can't follow him if he's going too far from you. The best
way to get it is to ask the scout to stay near you while he's killing. It can
also be during a capture point match whether the scout is in defense or in
attack.
It's working with kritz.
*How did I unlock it?
Ubering a Scout on achievement server. I don't uber scouts during a match as
it will be more useful for the team to uber other classes.
*In other languages:
FR: Comme un picotement
BLAST ASSIST
------------
*Objective: Assist in exploding five enemies with a single Ubercharge on a
Soldier.
Uber a soldier and pray for five enemies killed with rockets because it's not
easy to do it: there are only 4 rockets before the need to reload and if no
crit is firing, it will be tricky.
However, if you have kritz, you can have it easily. It's working with it.
*How did I unlock it?
Ubering a Scout on achievement server. I hate kritzgun and I didn't meet a
soldier who will kill five people in a single charge instead of a sentry.
*In other languages:
FR: Médicine militaire
SECOND OPINION
--------------
*Objective: Ubercharge two teammates at once
A medic knows that if he stops healing while uber, he'll be the only ubered and
will let his partner down.
Well, that achievement requires somewhere to let for a second his partner down.
But fortunately, it's not really important during a fight.
For getting this achievement, you have to go back and forth between 2 teammates
very quickly. They have to receive the uber in the same second and as you may
know, a second, it's really fast.
*How did I unlock it?
Again on achievement server. I've tried to get it in different ways during
fights, I've tried something on achievement server and if someone didn't get it
when I was present, I wouldn't know how to have it. Now, it's my turn to explain
it and to show it to medics.
*In other languages:
FR: Second diagnostic
DOUBLE BLIND TRIAL
------------------
*Objective: Deploy an Ubercharge within eight seconds of a nearby enemy Medic
deploying his.
When you're sick of these uber achievements (building an uber is long, even with
ubersaw as you have to use the saw on an enemy and pray that you're not kill in
the process), they're still coming and coming and coming.
Fortunately, it's an easy one to get. You have just to deploy an uber 8 seconds
after an enemy one. It can be done when you have a setup time, usually
medics are ubering quickly. Sometimes, you can have it without knowing that
an enemy medic deployed it.
Don't forget though that you have to be in the same area.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally. I deployed an uber without knowing that an enemy medic was
doing the same and if I remember correctly, I didn't read the achievements at
that time. So, you understand that I was surprised to see so many achievements
unlocked when I returned to TF2 after 9 months of absence.
*In other languages:
FR: Réflexe immunitaire
TRAUMA QUEEN
------------
*Objective: Deploy three ubers in 5 minutes or less and assist in killing five
enemies.
It's easy to get it, I swear it, I did it during a fight. You have sometimes
fights where you can retreat and rebuild an uber. I think that you don't need
to be alive for it, as the respawn is generally quick (exceeding 20 seconds is
a dead end for your achievement). Don't forget that you need with these three
ubers 5 enemies in total.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally and by being weirdly spared by the enemy's team. Was it
because I was in defense with people?
*In other languages:
FR: Traumatisme
FAMILY PRACTICE
---------------
*Objective: Ubercharge 10 Steam Community Friends
Again, like for With Friends Like These, you have to have friends in your list.
Not one though, no, you need 10 DIFFERENT people for getting it. It should be
easy when playing with the same players on the same server.
TF2 Wiki is also noting this:
"You can ÜberCharge a friend as a disguised Spy if they are on the other team
and it will count towards the achievement".
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally - Thanks to HK and HKC for it.
*In other languages:
FR: Pratique familiale
PREVENTIVE MEDICINE
-------------------
*Objective: Block the enemy from Capturing a Control Point with an Ubercharged
teammate.
You have to stand on the point with an ubered teammate who is also on it. You
can have it easily if you're playing well your role of medic.
*How did I unlock it?
By playing normally but it was a confused battle, so, I do not remember the way
I got it.
*In other languages:
FR: Médecive préventive
HOUSE CALL
----------
*Objective: Join a Steam Friend in a game and ubering him
You just have to join a Steam Friend (if you've got one) and to uber him. The
critical point is to be in his team. And when I tried, well, I was always on the
opposite team. Well, you should do this one: just use the "Join the game" in
the steam windows for getting in the right team.
*How did I unlock it?
I wanted to do it normally. Unfortunately, I was on achievement server when it
happens. You may know that I'm always ubercharging and giving it to people on
the server. I did it to a steam friend who was already on the server when I
joined. Harm was done for my ego.
*In other languages:
FR: Visite à domicile
TRIAGE
------
*Objective: Deploy an Ubercharge on a teammate less than a second before they
are hit by a Critical explosive.
Well, it's something you can have if the enemy medic deploys kritz and that
you deploy your uber on the teammate who will be hit.
But it's a question of luck here. Because you don't know when a crit will arrive
from the bazooka or from grenade lauchers.
It's also working with a teammate who will be hit by his own explosives: soldier
or demoman.
*How did I unlock it?
Playing normally. I deployed an uber on a demoman who was going to die and
apparently an enemy demoman just made explode his stickies (among them, a crit).
I never saw that crit thing. We were on Badwater, defending the last point and
I was on the ramp when the demo was higher than me.
*In other languages:
FR: Triage
GROUP HEALTH
------------
*Objective: Work with two other Medics to deploy three simultaneous Ubercharges.
It's possible to have it at the beginning of a round or when you're three medics
ready to ubercharge for destroying sentries. Contrary to popular belief, it's
not ubering the same teammate in the same time.
*How did I unlock it?
Playing normally but I don't remember the fight.
*In other languages:
