Some achievements wont unlock

[IEvil IMonkey]

I've unlocked, purchased and equipped a few skills now but the achievement hasn't unlocked

Also I've received jewels via the gps area by playing at home and work and that didn't unlock either

Any ideas please

[SGT J1ngles]

i got the ach for buying 5 equipment i had to put one of them on to unlock it

[Cookie Kenku]

same problem with GPS achievement
actually GPS works strange for me: counted 1500m while lying on the table at night and nothing after the road to work

I'm sure it says Equip your 1st skill - 5g (or something similar) which I've done

Don't tell me it has glitches already

[mlkybrs r on me]

if you got the link early you got the private version

I have heard the same thing, that not all items linked to from that site will work with updates, achievements, etc... but I have no personal experience. I'm going to wait for it to show up on the marketplace just to be on the safe side, it won't kill me to wait a day or so to buy this.

havent tried the game yet myself, but i bought it using the link on wpcentral

try from there if you're worried about zeb's link being bad

Private version? What does that even mean? Do we have to re-download it to get the "public" version?

I knew there was something odd about people having links to games before they came out...

[IEvil IMonkey]

I got it via the wpcentral link so it must be ok (zeb was dragging his heals with his usual twitter announcement - prob wanted a head start as usual)

I got the skill one to unlock by just messing with equiping a few skills on and off before entering a stage

Will try GPS again tomorrow... I think you need to sync GPS, then travel somewhere and re-sync when you get there for it to calculate things - guess I'll find out tomorrow

I have to drive 400km today so ill see if I get the ach from that I'll let you know I have unlocked some of the skills 4the distance traveled 20000 do they record it in meters?

[Giltec]

I've had some of the skill achievements unlock for me but not the obtaining jewels through gps.

I drove 100 miles today (160km). The first drive I synced before I left and when I got to my destination. It registered as me travelling 440 metres instead of 80000 metres. Tried again on the return journey and it showed at 5200 metres when I got home. Not moved from the house since I got back and it has changed to 6342 metres. Methinks this one might be glitched.

[Chiaroscuro]

GPS works very strange. It seems that the game must be on all the time to count the travelling (i.e you cannot start the game, sync the gps, exit the game and later fire the game again and synd the gps, it won't register the movement).

I have 13km registered now. Got a jewel for 1km and a skill for 10km. The GPS achievement did not unlock. However its description says "Use the in-game GPS to gather draco jewels". Jewels, in the plural. Maybe we need more than one?

[Horscht]

Well, no. So fat the GPS one didn't unlock for me after obtaining 4 jewels via GPS. The equip a skill one popped after I bought a second secondary skill and switched them.

[neeker75]

How many meters must you travel before they give a jewel to you? I've gotten one jewel from 408m travelled. Subsequently I drove another 1500m+ and nothing. It just keeps asking me to check in my location when I go to the trading post.

And yes, the GPS achievement didn't unlock as well.

"Cleansing Fire" didn't unlock for me as well. I've defeated the first two bosses countless times with action skills.

[Teh Paralyzer]

So far I made more GPS progress walking to my Kitchen than the Gas Station.... I'm clueless....

[GR4V1G0R3]

think the GPS tracking is "a little" off
i've got 13000m or there-abouts, and have had since i booted up the game and ran the GPS thing around 20 mins after downloading it

Cleansing Fire unlocked for me once I reverted back to using Chain Bind to kill the bosses. I had been using Angriff Adler to power up my attacks when I killed them before and that never worked.

I just had a quick try what Chiaroscuro said about leaving the game on whilst travelling and that worked for me. I'll be driving about 50 miles later so will leave the game on throughout the journey to see if it works again. I also notice only one person has unlocked the gps achievement over on trueachievements as well.

EDIT: I have just driven 15 miles, approx 23 km. When I left home my distance was showing 8000 m travelled. Left the game running while I drove, checked in when I arrived and have 85000 m travelled. A couple of skill unlocks and a couple of jewels but still no achievements.

So as far as I know, I'm the only person to have unlocked this. The achievement doesn't tell you that you need 50 GPS gems to unlock it, so after checking in over and over again as the dodgy tracker keeps counting up as long as the game is running it popped after 50 bonus gems had been given out.
