| − | Does "Beat me Up, Scotty" actually work with the Scotsman's Skullcutter? I ask this because what I'm editing claims it does, although the achievement description says otherwise. Yes, there have been discrepancies over whether or not a weapon will work towards a certain achievement, such as when trying to use the Equalizer for the Soldier's "Trench Warfare." Perhaps the achievement merely checks for the "decapitation" sort of death? [[User:InShane|InShane]] 01:59, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

| − | Assuming this wiki operates under some form of consistency, being encyclopedic in nature and all, I have deleted the link to Tturbo's nice Sentry nest destruction video for the achievement Tam o Shatter after my edit to a similarly "duet" achievement for Soldier (S*M*A*S*H and Blast Assist) was removed. I do not think claiming that the video should remain because it is old or has remained for a long time is a valid argument. Arguments from tradition are mostly fallacious. I should note I myself found the video Tturbo put up very entertaining and tasteful, illustrating how to gain a "duet" achievement, and so my own video was done in a very similar format, of similar length and illustration purposes - I was inspired by it. To then enforce this inconsistency in choice (and "Just shoot rockets" is just as valid as "Just shoot stickies" in that case) of cherry-picking content seems just wrong. My Youtube channel has almost no videos - it is a repository, not an advertisment.

| − | I don't think we can have it both ways on a wiki. Either we allow both videos to remain, or none. --[[User:Bombax|Bombax]] 09:30, 2 May 2012 (PDT)

| − | == Tartan Spartan bug? ==
| |
| − | Demoman is my most played class, but on steam (I havent looked ingame), the Tartan Spartan achievement progress is listed at zero damage points... whats up with that? [[User:Matimoo|Matimoo]] 05:19, 25 September 2011 (PDT)

| − | :It's the same with the one that counts your total burn damage as Pyro - for some reason it always shows a big fat zero in Steam. It's fine in-game though.

| − | == Scotch Guard glitched? ==
| |
| − | Has anyone else encountered this problem? I have done what the achievement requires on multiple occasions, but receive no progress either in game or on the steam achievements page. Is there a list of which achievements are know to be glitched anywhere? [[User:Reykjavik|Reykjavik]] 19:44, 16 October 2011 (PDT)

| − | : I have recently tried to get it when playing against bots, and that didn't work. Haven't (actively) tried it against human players though. [[User:Itsacon|Itsacon]] 05:42, 30 January 2012 (PST)

| − | == Medieval mode/Scotch tap ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Medieval mode makes it easier to earn melee-based achivements for all characters. Now that medieval mode is official, achievements can be earned while playing it. I think it is worht mentioning.
| |
| − | 'Scotch tap' (kill someone with a sword taunt) is much easier to earn in medieval mode. Instead of sneaking up on snipers, players need to stand on a contested control point and get the timing right as enemies approach. This is a lot easier because enemies must close in to kill you. Especially on control point C on deGroot Keep. I earned several tauntkill achievements this way. [[User:K-Raider NL|K-Raider NL]] 08:10, 26 January 2012 (PST)

| − | It seems that killing someone doused on Jarate also counts towards the achievement "Beat Me Up, Scotty", because yesterday I killed a cloaked Spy doused on Jarate with the Eyelander and earned the achievement. I'll add the info. [[User:Hydra877|Hydra877]] 04:25, 24 April 2012 (PDT)

| − | == Per above, Scotch Guard may still be glitched or not obtainable with the Scottish Resistance ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | As the subject says, I can verify from my own experience that the achievement may still be unattainable. I say this because I used the Scottish Resistance near the enemy's payload on Helltower to obtain the Pipebagger achievement, yet did not attain any progress for the Scotch Guard achievement. Of course there is a chance that one or more of those three players were not capping.. but I find this highly unlikely, since all of my stickies were placed very close to the rail itself.
