Subject: Locked UNSC Spartan achievement!

Title says it all. So the requirement to get the achievement is simply to get to Sergeant. Well I already did that, most likely in October or November of 2007. When the update came out that created a specific rank within each playlist, I saw this as another opportunity to got the locked achievement. However, having reached Sergeant in nearly all of the playlist (Lone Wolves just a few days ago), I still don't have the achievement. So here I am, July 2010, playing with over 2000 exp, curious as to why this achievement still hasn't unlocked for me.

Someone from Bungie (or with intimate knowledge of this problem) help me please!!!

As I lay in bed, staring at the stars I thought: "Where the hell is the ceiling"

To get the chivy, you need Sergeant in one playlist I think. If you had over sergeant in all playlists, wait till a double exp weekend, or 7 on the 7th.

Or, maybe the achievments glitched.

According to your stats page you already have it.

Spartan Officer
Date Earned: Sunday, October 07, 2007
True veteran of many battles, you are a Spartan Officer.

You have to get LT in an individual playlist.

The rank of LT is for the Spartan Officer achievement, not the UNSC Spartan. I have Spartan Officer (LT and up), but not UNSC Spartan (Sergeant).

I am a Colonel Grade 3 globally, and a Sergeant in almost every playlist. UNSC Spartan should have unlocked before Spartan officer, but it never did!

Is there any way to fix this glitch?

Unfortunately not that I know of.

This was an issue pre-TU2. With TU2 (Title Update 2) though, it was made so you needed to get these types of achievements in specific playlists. That's so people who already passed the marker and didn't get the achievements could then get them.

As you say, you've passed both pre-TU2 AND post-TU2 markers and don't have it. Which I haven't seen before. Odd. Hmm. I can only recommend trying to get it in, say, the 7th on 7 playlist (the playlist that appears only on the 7th of every month). You could try PMing Bungie Employee Shishka, but I wouldn't get your hopes up for him being able to do something (I suppose it couldn't hurt to try though, mind you!).

Sorry that's about all the advice I can give.
:(

KO sorry got my achievements mixed up. By the looks of it you should gotten that achievement already. I would do what the Burritio says try to obtain it on the 7 on 7 playlist. If that does not work then send the PM.
