I know this is not an Achievement issue as such but I'll post my "issue" here anyway.
I have unlocked the following achievement:

(purplish ribbon)
But in the ribbon does not appear in the My Character - Ribbon list


Yup, same problem here too.



Same here. The achievement unlocks but it doesn't show up in the ribbons section in the game menu.

I have found another glitch with a different achievement.

It is with the "Rapel King" achievement. You unlock it after getting 25 kills from a Rapel rope (in single or multiplayer).

I have gotten over 50 kills while hanging from a rapel and not gotten the achievement. On one occasion while I was purposefully trying to unlock this achievement, I was playing on the first scene of the Convention Center level. The only kills I got were ones while hanging upside down from the rapel with a Desert Eagle and shooting enemies. Once they were all cleared out of the room, I reverted to the last checkpoint to get more kills.

When I went to check to see how many kills I needed, I already had 29 kills from the rope. That alone should have unlocked the achievement, let-alone the fact that I had easily at least another 20-25 kills from other campaign missions, Terrorist Hunt, and multiplayer.

Is anyone else having this problem?
Its the way you are doing it. Reloading the checkpoint seems to erase any credit you get for rope kills...even though the XP stays. You have to load up the closest stage each time to do it...I used the "rooftops" stage.

I was theorizing about this last night, as some of my kills while suspended from the rope got credited as "at long range", "kill thru cover" etc. were they all credited as "while suspended from a rope" ?

I just loaded up T hunt on killhouse, got on a rope and kept killing till achievement unlocked.  Didnt have to do too many because of the rope kills I got in the campaign.

Re: Private First Class & Freedom Shall Prevail Achievement Issues
I didn't have any problems with the Freedom Shall Prevail achievement, because I went straight into Realistic, by myself. I refused to let any of my friends play with me, and they all understood (after some convincing) because of my bullheaded determination. lol. But I did experience the PFC achievement glitch, which sucks because it'll look dumb when I get Officer (probably tonight) and have PFC after it on my list. Oh well, it happens. I can't stop playing this game because of the order of my achievements (although I'd prefer it to look right), it's too good of a game.

heh, I have the exact same problem. I wanted to beat "Halo 3" legendary by myself but I kept getting invites over and over. (and then my son was born so I had to abandon Halo 3 altogether - lol). same thing happening with R6V2.

I just don't find these "Legendary" / "Realistic" achievements satisfying when you do them with a friend - the ability to respawn over and over as long as one person stays alive really makes it e-z sauce.

Re: Private First Class & Freedom Shall Prevail Achievement Issues
Agreed SUPE12.

For the others for the shooting from the rappel, I never looked at my ribbons but I did get the achievement; fairly simply too.  Go to T-Hunts and the CQB Training map.  Once spawn run out and get on the rope on the building across from it; start shooting down the street at the terrorists and continue shooting anybody that you can.  It is best with one or more people helping as they can shoot at other terrorist down the streets you can't and bring them to you so you don't have to come off the repel.  Did this challenge in two tries with the second time getting 14 kills.  Simple and quick.

Re: Private Class, Realistic & Freedom Shall Prevail Achievement Issues
If you didn't do the whole story on your own machine you won't get the achievement regardless if you got that achievements for finishing each level while playing the story that somebody else hosted.  Unfortunately those are the facts and I had to do it all again on my own.

Try the workarounds (for Realistic) and/or wait for the patch (for PFC).

Re: Private Class, Realistic & Freedom Shall Prevail Achievement Issues
Kind of a funny situation last night, I played a co-op game online (after I had beaten it on Realistic on my own and missed out on the achievement.) and after the first scene I completed I unlocked the achievement. I don't know what happened but it just unlocked itself, the stage was the Monorail scene. I'm really glad it unlocked as the same achievement glitched on the original RSV. I don't know if it will work for anyone else but try it I guess.

It is not life ending so don't worry too much about it.  There were achievements on the original R6V that were unattainable for some which sucks but such is life.  Why they don't work for everybody is beyond me and what is even more surprising is the designers have no clue.  Move on, enjoy the game and let by gones be by gones.

Finished campaign on normal, all well and good, then did it on realistic, with me hosting a co-op game and finished that. My mate got the achievement, and not me. Then helped another buddy complete a few acts. Then I joined a co-op game on the first scene of the last act, and played through till the end. Achievement Unlocked. Weird weird weird weird.

Yes, the workaround only works if you do it before you've played R6V2 (at all) on your main gamertag.

Connectivity hopefully they fix the issue where you can't talk to certain people in games.  Like for instance I go in some rooms and can hear some people and some people I can't hear.

ya, people who beat it on realistic first seem to get it. I beat it on normal and then realisitic by myself and cant seem to get it.

Just noting that I have this problem as well, beat it on coop casual with my uncle first...then went back and played the first part solo and the rest coop on realistic and no luck getting this achievement (even though all scenes show realistic as complete).

The workaround for the PFC achievment, if I then exit vegas, log out of all profiles, log back in with my profile and boot up vegas, do I still get the "welcome back" message and goodies? or since I've already earned xp will it skip that?

Yes, I believe you do. But I've never performed the workaround personally. Try following the link after "Source:" to double check.

Think i've found a solution to the Freedom Shall Prevail achievement.

All i simply did was join a co-op game in Act 1 Scene 1, which i believe is called 'Negotiations' and just complete that and pop, up comes 75G.

Yes, I believe you do. But I've never performed the workaround personally. Try following the link after "Source:" to double check.

Also, after getting the achievement, you can reboot the game with your primary profile and you still get the XP/equipment bonus on top of what you've already done.

From that forum.
