Achievement "Tactical Approach" broken

Postby fledersaft » Thu May 02, 2013 12:34 am

"[...] get to sector 8 without jumping to a beacon with an environmental danger.". So, if jumping to a CLEAN BEACON with an mission to "Search for missing ship", accepting and ending up in an ambush in an asteroid field, do that count as " jumping to a beacon with an environmental danger", voiding long range scanners? Please, to reaffirm my low belief in human honesty, answer "yeah...uh...sure, (*thinking* I don't give a f***) that counts! We thought of that!" FYI, It takes about four hours of your life to reach the conclusion in question. Not that I expect an reply, fix or change of achievement description whatsoever. If you do, maybe you can avoid residence on Ark B when the goat comes.

Thanks for the report! I'm sorry you found that clearly so very frustrating, we did not intend to trick you into failing that achievement. I'll add it to the list of future things to fix for the next patch :)

I'm also wondering this same question about this achievement and it didn't really seem to be answered.
Can anyone tell me if going to a clean beacon and then choosing for example to explore an asteroid field will cause you to fail the achievement?
