Steam Achievements

[goose_2]

I just recently completed the vanilla Wehrmacht campaign on Field Marshal difficulty and unlocked the additional difficulty levels - however I did not receive the Great Field Marshal (Win a campaign on Field Marshal difficulty) Steam achievement.

I managed decisive victories on most scenarios including all of the three American ones. I once switched the dice roll system from Normal to Limited Dice chess, but didn't like it so I changed back to Normal after the next scenario. No other changes to the difficulty were made.

Did I just have bad luck and should try it again or do you really have to win the vanilla campaign on Field Marshal with ALL decisive victories (including early Moscow 41) to unlock the corresponding achievement? Or would I be better off doing that achievement with one of the other campaigns (At the moment I only own the vanilla game plus Afrika, Allied and Soviet Corps DLCs)?

I would quick play the GC 39 to get that steam achievement.
Easy peesey chicken squeezy

Thanks for the advice, I might do that!

Is it possible to get the big three (Guderian, Manstein, Rommel) difficulty achievements all at once by appropriately setting custom difficulty to match all 3 combined? To save time, naturally (I am a big boy, I can take it, lol).

Knowing how software is written, to get a Manstein achievement, setting AI to +5 won't get it, it will look for Manstein setting.

Today i try first mission from US Corps on colonel... it was quick and i was surprised with Steam achievments at the end. I'm not sure if it should be like this.

Oh that is crazy. I did mine on the first battle of Norway in the Grand Campaign. Super easy mission to get those 2 knocked out.

okay, just finished the 1941 campaign but did not get the "Poking the Bear" achievement.
Do you have to play all the different scenarios to get it. like both choosing Leningrad and then Kiev i another game.
And I did not cheat !

Were you able to make it to the Streets of Moscow scenario? Maybe that has something to do with it?

What I am curious about is has anyone received the all scenarios badge as it is one of 3 I have left to get the other 2 are the surviving the single scenario Bagration and Berlin

Hi, Recently I got Poking the Bear steam achievement after finishing GC 41 and in my case I did not play all different scenarios

Grand Campaigner achievement works now ?

Grand Campaigner achievement works now ?

Still broken
Although I completed last GC 6 months ago, before they repacked it to "Gold" on Steam. There might be a slim chance it would unlock if all GC missions/DLCs were to be completed in the Gold version. Even with my backed up saves of every damn GC battle (just prior to Decisive Victories) there is no way in Hell I'd waste my time testing that theory.
We are left in dev's good graces if they wish to bother about fixing that achiev. Even then we'd have to wait until PC2 is no longer in their focus. Would be nice to have a token symbol showing total victory over a great undertaking the GC certainly is.

Maybe Sealion and US Corps campaigns should also be finished in order to trigger this achievement. After all they are in same menu as other GC's

Nope I finished them ALL, still not unlocked

This poor fellow even finished all alternative paths just to make sure, lol. There's a semi-confirmation the achievement is indeed broken couple of posts after the one I linked. Nothing to do but sit and wait I guess.

I even mentioned it in PM to main dev, hoping it to get patched along with the critical exploit I discovered, but I haven't even received an acknowledgement or anything. Probably got thrown straight in the trash bin, lol. Last thing he wanted to hear just weeks before official PC2 release

Press CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+A while in game. If "Cheats Used" is "True" then it's the player's problem (so to say) or you might've missed a DV (so yea, you need ALL decisive victories). Also don't change anyhting during the campaign (rules, difficulty or other stuff).
If you don't want to play again the vanilla campaign, you can try for that achievement on any other campaign.

I just tried "CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+A" out of curiosity. What is the original intention of this message when you press CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+A

Um... it's self-explanatory really. It opens a mini-screen where some conditions have their status checked, like if cheats were used during the game it's marked as TRUE, if not it's FALSE.
