I can possibly translate this page into russian. Can I have permission? Or do I just do it without asking?[[User:Sandvich Heavinski|Sandvich Heavinski]] 02:28, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

==Achievement change(s)==
 
I've noticed recently that the "duty bound" achievement for Soldier was changed from killing an opponent before you land to killing an opponent before you land or shortly after. Not sure if that is the only change, but I think it is worth looking into to see if other achievements may have been changed.

I'm not sure where to put this, but I believe it would be important to tell. So I was 6000 damage points away from achieving "Tartan Spartan" (1000000 points of blast damage as Demoman) when I decided to reset my stats. To my chagrin, I lost all progress towards that achievement as well as my stats. A warning should be put somewhere...

==Leaderboard Icons==
 
What do you think about adding leaderboard class icons next to classes' sections? Like this: <br>
 
===[[Scout]]===
 
[[File:Leaderboard class scout.png|left|55 px]]
 
'''[[Scout achievements|Scout pack]]'''<br>
 
35 '''achievements''', 3 [[Scout achievements#milestones|Milestones]].<br>
 
<small>[[Obtaining Scout achievements]]</small>
 
 
 
IMO it doesn't clutter the page and offers a quicker reference. --[[User:Kid Of The Century|Kid Of The Century]] 10:50, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

::::Just a quick note, could you please make it so the offense class achievement packs are placed in the top row, and the defense classes are placed in the middle row and the support classes displayed in the bottom row? I just find it would help with confusion, but either ways I guess it still works. [[User:Guy|Guy]] 11:00, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
==High Resolution Icons==
 
So I'd noticed that all of the class achievements have 512x512 versions of their normal 64x64 icons. I know for a fact that the GCF does not actually have such high resolution icons, so I figured that this could be applied to the original achievements. I redid a couple of them and uploaded them, but the first was reverted because it was "fanmade". Can this rule be clarified? -[[User:Nerdboy|Nerdboy]] 01:23, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:On some updates, valve released the achievement icons in 512x512 variants.  For example in the [http://www.teamfortress.com/screamfortress/ Scream Fortress page], under "Ghostchievements" there is a link, "Download the icon set".  The original achievements never had a n icon-set released, and thus we can only use the ones extracted from the GCF.  I hope this answers your question.  -[[User:RJackson|<span class="burbg" style="margin-right:1px;text-shadow: #538237 1px 1px 0px;">RJ</span>]]{{Sta}} 13:29, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
 
::Thanks for clearing that up. I also went ahead and uploaded the higher quality Ghostchievements. -[[User:Nerdboy|Nerdboy]] 21:33, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Redirect Achievement names to class achievement pages ==
 
Should the specific achievement names redirect to their respective class achievement pages? e.g. Caught Napping will redirect to [[Scout achievements]], Factory Worker will redirect to [[Heavy achievements]], etc.
 
Just a thought. - [[User:LingoSalad|<font face="TF2 Build" color="#990099">LingoSalad</font>]]<sub> ([[User_talk:LingoSalad|talk]])</sub> 22:43, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Achievement references ==
 
 
 
I think it will be a good idea to explain and provide links for references involving the meaning of the achievements. Many player may not get all the communist references in the Heavy achievements or the James Bond stuff with respect to the Spy achievements. [[User:UmbertoEco|UmbertoEco]] 10:32, 15 December 2010 (UTC).
 
:You mean [[Obtaining Heavy achievements|this]] and [[List of references (Heavy)|this]]?

== Well Spun Hat ==
 
 
 
Because of it's relevance to TF2, should we make a page for it? Or maybe even just some sort of snapshot? I know right now we don't have enough information, but I'm just thinking ahead. <span style="color: #cc6600; font-family: Tf2 Build;"><big>[[User:Smashbrother101|Smash]][[User Talk:Smashbrother101|brother]][[User:Smashbrother101#Bios|1]][[User:Smashbrother101#Gallery|0]][[User:Smashbrother101#Loadout|1]]</big></span> 02:03, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

:::The well spun code needs a mention somewhere as it is a in-game item with it's own backpack image etc - [[User:Devozade|Devozade]] 02:12, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Achievement related bugs ==
 
 
 
Can we possible add a page for helping obtain achievements/bugs for all achievements (Of course for those that, despite the description of it, can be obtain in seemingly another method is what I'm talking about). For example, an achievement that says "kill 3 people" would not go on this list (unless it occured without killing 3 people or it didnt give it when achieved). I just received the soldiers Geneva Contravention while on the losing team. This would be an example that goes on that page. I know the soldiers achievement page already list a few bugs, but I feel that all achievements should be listed together for those that are granted in seemingly impossible ways.  [[User:BASEBALLFURIES|BASEBALLFURIES]] 17:02, 8 September 2011 (PDT)
 
:That seems kind of pointless - what use is a page that lists those? Any confirmed bugs are already on the achievement pages for their respective classes.

== Achievement Video guides ==
 
 
 
Just an Idea I had for a series of guides for Various (or all) Achievements, I understand that we have written guides, But I think it would help allot of people to actually see what you have to do, but its just an Idea, so tell me what you think! :) [[User:Ihasnotomato|Ihasnotomato]]
 
 
 
== "Steam Users Forum Achievements" Link ==
 
Can we link a reference to the ''cryptic email'' Achievement to the original post? I've tried googling, but I can't find it myself. If (for some reason) it got taken down, then a screenshot if someone has it? Just wondering. Thanks.
