Talk:Obtaining Scout achievements
Edited the "Dodgers 1, Giants 0" description. Taking the Health Kit dropped by the Candy Cane does NOT give you the achievement. Tested it a couple of times. LeGenD`RaGe 11:09, 23 September 2011 (PDT)
Out of the Park
Can anyone confirm that the ragdoll actually has to fly 25m?? I got the achievement by batting an enemy against a wall 3/4 m away. LeGenD`RaGe 13:42, 25 September 2011 (PDT)
I also got the achievement without batting the victim 25 meters. I earned it in DeGroot Keep, at the control point right of the keep (next to a cliff). I was standing on the control point, facing the arch. I used the homerun taunt to launch a demoman into the upper part of the arch, above the pillar in the middle. I got the achievement 'out of the park' this way. I doubt the distance between the center of the control point and the arch is 25 meters. How much more evidence do we need to change the discription?
On a related note, medieval mode makes it a lot easier to get this achievement. Players need to stand on a contested control point and taunt. Because the taunt takes long to exceute, it is more about luck than timing. But it can be done. Can someone incorporate that in the achievement guide? I cannot make this guide short enough.

Gun Down
I don't think you can get this achievement using the Winger. Since most people consider the Winger a pistol, that might be worth adding. I'm not 100% positive that the Winger won't grant you the achievement, so confirmation on that would be nice. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by TheCaptainRD (talk) • (contribs)
Confirmed you can't get this achievement using the Winger. They should really fix that. NottNott 15:49, 1 March 2013 (PST)
Race for the Pennant
Somehow this achievement is bugged. I made a new account for playing TF2, and i died for the first time as a Scout, and i was rewarded this achievement, when i barely ran for about 2 minutes.--J4ff4c3ks1 12:02, 15 September 2012 (PDT)
- No. When I started TF2 this was one of my first achievements, and it happened just after few minutes. So it's probably not bugged; it's most likely meant to be that way. (Scales may differ in TF2 universe.) -Asplode 12:07, 15 September 2012 (PDT)
