    Speed Boost achievement won't register on Steam

    Hi,

    i unlocked the Speed Boost achievement on 2 different profiles but unfortunately it won't register in Steam. All other achievements unlocked just fine. I tried restarting the client and switching between profiles but nothing changed. I have a suspicion that the Steam API Call might be broken in the 1.08 version for that achievement. Several people I talked to all unlocked the achievement before the patch. I'd be really grateful for any suggestions.

    Thanks,

    So I'm not the only one with that problem. I had that for quite a while now. And its still won't fix it self. Is it a glitch or bug?

    Yep! I also got this problem, I'd really like this Achie to appear on my Steam Community Profile, 'cause I worked hard for it.
    Well, then I bit the bullet and did it again on another account as well, but nothing happened.

    I think it's a bug that was introduced with the latest patch. I was able to reproduce it 3 times and it never registered on Steam. Hopefully this will be looked at before 1.09 is released.

    No, its still broken. Got it a few minutes ago ingame but steam did not recognise it.
    Still version 1.08

    For the sake of inquiring future players who earn the Speed Boost achievement:

    You're not alone; as of Dec. 18, 2011, the Speed Boost achievement still does not register on Steam (for me, and probably others). I earned it on two separate profiles; achievement popped up in game. Both times, Steam never recognized it. Every other achievement has registered correctly.

    Sad there's no fix, it's definitely not an easy achievement, so it's sad you can't show it off to friends

    Just know, you're not alone. We could start a support group

    Count me in for the support group. If we push hard enough ... our fail will be monumental.

    But seriously, I don't think redlynx ever gave information about the technical aspects of this bug. It can be as simple as a mismatch of ids between the game and steam.
    I wonder if steam could fix it, since redlynx is unable to provide an update at this time. I have contacted steam support about this but I didn't get far.

    So yeah, steamy speed boost is definitely the hardest achievement. Apart from it's normal goal, you have to make one of the two parties involved to shake things up.
