[@Hankathan]

@@kserrata Each achievement requires you to win with a specific throw (eg. win with scissors 3 times in a row). Since there are 3 distinct ways to win and 3 to lose, there are 6 total options. If your goal is just to win _any_ of these achievements, the chance for any 3 throws is 1/72 (1/2*1/6*1/6), because you just have to win the first throw, but for a _specific_ one, it's 1/216.

“Around an hour of continuous rock paper scissoring” That sounds like a not-so-subtle innuendo.

[@DelphanGruss]

As an addendum, not all the achievements that are 'hard' are really obvious. In MvM for example, the 'Spam Blocker' achievement - (Spam Blocker: During a wave, defend the hatch 10 times from robots about to deliver a bomb) is obscenely circumstantial and difficult for the specific string of things that need to happen for it to be earned. You need to have a team that's bad enough to be pushed all the way to last, but also good enough to actually HOLD the hatch - you need the bots to be able to reach the hatch to begin the 'deploy' animation without getting killed - and you need to actually be able to kill them without being overwhelmed yourself. I only have 5 achievements left in TF2, and this is one of them, because 99% of teams never let the bots even get past the first gate, let alone get all the way to the end.

[@yoshifan2334]

Mannworks expert missions is the way to go, expert missions are FLOODED with super scouts, mannworks in particular, so unless you've got nearly tacobot tier tryhards in your lobby someone's gonna biff it on the bodyblocks eventually and end up with the bomb (which doesn't reset) like 2/3rds of the way to the hatch, and from there it only takes a bit more to get pusehd back to hatch. Go demo, spam stickies on hatch as infinitely respawning melee scout reinforcements pick up bomb, profit.

[@icicleditor]

One could try using pyro's airblast to defend by pushing a single bot off ten times repeatedly, especially if they're the last in the wave Ask your teammates to leave a bot for you to do that at the end of a round! I've not been anywhere near MvM at all but I think that could do the trick.

I had an idea for a map while playing TF2 yesterday. I'd joined an empty Uncletopia server and was noticing how certain doors had to wait to be opened, and I was like, "Yeah that's cool ... that's really really cool actually ... wait, couldn't there be a way to implement *other* objectives into a Payload map?" And so my brain started to concoct the strangest payload ctf cp map in the world. The basic theory was this: There was this payload that needed to go somewhere, but the blue team didn't have the ability to start it up for some reason. No progress could be made until Blue managed to cap Red's intel. After that, the payload had to stop at specific checkpoint areas, but in order to pass through these checkpoints, the Blue team would _have_ to capture two additional control points, otherwise the doors leading away wouldn't open. Repeat this last point two more times and then the payload would reach the final terminus ... almost. Y'see, this _was_ the final stop ... but there were _five_ control points to capture - one for each door - in order for Blue to be able to move the payload to its final destination. Would this map be incredibly long? Yes, yes it would. I could also see this map breaking the usual RvB formula in that the map didn't actually _care_ who pushed the cart, just that someone - either Red _or_ Blue - captured the intel and the control points and got the payload to its destination.

[@Someguyhere111]

I would say the hardest achievement is the two Soldiers killing each other while each is parachuting. The conditions are just SO SPECIFIC. You need a map that accomadates it first of all - nice big and open area - and then you need at least one enemy Soldier who has the parachute equipped and ISN'T using the Rocket Jumper weapon. Next, both of you need to rocket jump and start parachuting in the same area, at the same time, and both of you need to decide to fire at each other and neither of you cut the chute, and both of you need to have so little health that you actually die and both of you need to land your shots, all in the VERY short span of time you have while parachuting down, and all while hoping other players on the map don't interfere. It's such a unique situation that is so unlikely to happen naturally that you either have to co-ordinate it with another member of the community, or have two computers so you can solo it yourself (which is a little awkward but, I can confirm, do-able). The worst part about it and other achievements with such specific requirements is that they're not even things you 'achieve'. Again, they're so unlikely to happen naturally you have to FORCE them to be set-up, and this means you either just host a private server where you're just working with someone else or have a bunch of inactive bots to set the right circumstances, or you just fuck around in an actual game, not actually playing the objective, in the hopes of an oppurtunity falling into your lap. It's the same problem that the CTF contracts had - they run COUNTER to the actual game, and so it encourages players to just sit and wait and not contibute to their team.

I somehow got Foul Territory using the Force-A-Nature's slow effect that's applied for a frame, which is quite possibly the funniest kill I've ever gotten. Got to say "Med Down" too. also i can confidently say that I have legitimately tuned merasmus's interdimensional tv alongside real humans

[@mr.looper7935]

RPS is not random. I forget the key you use, but i think its the one that cycles the taunts between halloween and normal mode. Doing rps with the exact same player without either hitting this cycle button will result in the exact same outcome every time. The chance of this occurring if it were truly random is astronomically small.

[@SepulcherGeist]

I care very little about TF2 and this subject matter, but you did such a comprehensive job on the topic, answering every hypothetical, and laying out your reasoning that I had no choice but watch the entire video and like it.

[@SuiteDevil7]

In my first 5 hours of playing I got the achievement “Crockets are such bs” and that’s got to say something.

[@spy9514]

The hardest achievement would be dominating the entire enemy team ( 32 players ) while having very good internet and ping, playing on 1 fps meleeing with the stock knife as Spy without backstabbing on 1 hp without going invisible or sapping on a competitive match in one round in less than 15 minutes completing 3 contracts all at once

[@Spikey_Spike]

I actually got the Merasmus television achievement, a bunch of people got together to do the achievement and it was worth it. That being said, it is hard to pull off.

[@themasterofmisanthropy7761]

I stayed on a server for 5 FUCKING HOURS AND HAD TO CONVINCE 2 TEAMS OF TRYHARDS TO DO THAT ACHIEVEMENT

[@gigiobigio0002]

I remember i was once playing a game of dustbowl and we managed to hold the last point for 14 whole ass minutes where i never died and healed 17k health

[@kormannn1]

3:35 I got this achievement on sd_doomsday, I jumped on uprising platform with lots of enemies who managed to not notice me and did the taunt

[@ckinggaming5bucketmadness766]

Now I know what to try to get and fail to do, now that I redownloaded tf2 and have fallen in love with it

[@z.i.p.w9467]

4:13 Hey i actually have a Specialist achievement, im actually suprise how at that time am i still alive for so long. I got that achievement when still relatively new, which is either my team really good helping me or the enemy team that just sucks

[@Lif_Lethal_Swordsman]

I think Metal Massacre is the hardest achievement in TF2. Blockbuster I don't think it's possible to achieve it now, it is impossible.

[@abhaybhatt4286]

Tbh I can only really imagine Jerma or Star getting the KZbin achievements. Their first vids might have been uploaded through the game back when that system still worked, and maybe some dedicated fans decided to watch them. Since then only Lazypurple and Uncle Dane have the popularity to hit those numbers but no one fits the time period when the achievement wasn't broken.

[@nekomaster1000]

Holy shit, I know that medic at 14:12! Heh! Haven't spoken to him in a hot minute but it's kind of surreal to see him pop up in a big KZbin video like this LOL

[@lastwymsi]

The rainblower taunt used to go through gates. I got the achievement years ago using that

[@darkridoom]

Something interesting I noticed was that the RPS achievements track your wins and losses between games, I got one by winning with scissors in one server, and then going to another server and winning with scissors two more times

[@KounterSounds]

There is a command on most TRADE server where you just put !givemeall and you'll unlock every single achivenent that gets you an item like the Merasmissions, weapon achivements etc.. (This includes the "Milestone" achivements for all classes) you can try this by reseting your achivements, going to a trade server and putting the comand. (Put the comand in the chat, not the console)

[@modmaniamadness]

My first ever Soldier achievement was Mutually Air-Sured Destruction.

[@modmaniamadness]

Another thing: I near only EVER hack achievements OUT using S.A.M.

[@Caillte_Cruleic]

4:22 I almost got this by accident on dustbowl. Of the top of my head I believe I got 9,780 something. Play that map, with a decent team it's hard to flank medics (Attacking side)

[@Underworlder5]

i did get that achievement on dustbowl defense. funny thing is that a toxic teammate accused me of being a bad medic in that same match (to be fair i did poorly time ubers, but he was far more hostile than warranted)

[@Caillte_Cruleic]

@@Underworlder5 While the uber is great and allows for amazing pushes that can cripple the other team for a period of time, the general healing medics do is far more important.

[@HyperbolicArachnid]

The fact that I have all of the classic achievements goes to show how little I take this game seriously

[@blacklight683]

Tf2 Achievement be like: go Frick yourself 360 then look at your none existing gf then do a back flip while your game is open and have at least 200kills and someone looking at you from the window Look at this 4:55

[@theradialhunter]

I've got palace aid got it on my first or second rottenberg mvm game and didn't know it existed I was using the phlog and had a full meter popped it and shredded the tank. The phlog is the best tank killer in the game thanks to giving you a free boost that you can use to either shred bots or more tanks.

[@explosivepopsicle7042]

13:26 The gameplay made me shit myself

[@Palgrave]

My personal top difficult achievement I am proud to have gotten legit is "First Do No Harm" as Medic. In a full server, in a complete game, topscore both teams as Medic, and get no kills while doing so. Which means, since I was on offense, we not only had to win all 3 maps, but I had to get more points via healing, ubercharges, and assist kills than the top fragger on both teams, and stay alive for as long as possible to maximize assist/heal points. Did it on Egypt, I spent a few hours trying. It was a great game.

[@appliedatoms7066]

I get that removing cheese from the equation makes sense, but when one of your three-way-tie winners can be cheesed incredibly easily -- 5 bots and the rainblower taunt -- it does feel like a bit of a mistake.

[@solidsnek9255]

Got every single medic achievement and got the hardest medic achievement on a dustbowl game before getting the "kill two people in a single life without deploying Uber" and now I feel stupid lmao

[@bruschetta7711]

9:51 what the hell is that kill icon?

[@merucrypoison296]

>LOONA WOLFIE

[@WhatIsTheHeat]

I got a bunch of achievements from achievement maps. It was when I was way younger but I’m pretty sure I didn’t even mean to. I just really, really liked this one achievement server, which looking back on it was probably really annoying, since I was killing the other team while they were trying to farm achievements.

[@ForwardStory]

2:41 Where does "1 in 729" chance come from? You have a 1/3 chance of picking rock, paper, or scissors. You have a 1/2 chance of you opponent then choosing the right counter for you to lose or win That's a 1/6 chance, 3 times in a row, resulting in a 1/216 chance. Still out there, but way lower than 729.

[@legokingcandy]

The way Great blue talks gives me Scott the woz vibes. It’s like a home away from home. I like it. Keep up the great stuff!

[@RagnarokiaNG]

Achievements like Prime Cuts are meant to be showing your skill, then in reality it is just finding the one time the server isn't full of spies and snipers.

[@theghosttm8245]

A nice thing about the Tune Merasmus TV one is that when it happens every player on the server even if they aren’t in that room will get it. From what I remember at least.

[@Toasted1337]

>hmmm today i will do every tf2 achievement

[@jamesniziolek6076]

I am such a god, I got Palace-Aid really easily, yet I'm struggling with the easy achievements

[@edgarvega5859]

As an achievement hunter, metal massacre's progress staring my soul is pure pain

[@alexv7986]

I thought the hardest achievement where you need to kill robots 1’000’000 times

[@subjectdelta7210]

I remember a contract that requires 200 some kills with the back burners crits. Ended up in a dead server with 1 other player. We both agreed to finish the others same contract. It took 1 and a half hours of killing for one of us to finish before moving onto the next person

[@urban_rural1256]

I would 100% watch an hour long vid of TF2 achievement cheesing
