Subject: First achievement glitch?

I really, really, really, really, really, really,reeaalllyy hate you right now.

I was playing team swat the other day, trying to get skill 10 and the spartan officer achievement, when my connection suddenly went from green to red. I played the rest of the game disappearing and reappearing in front of rocks. The odd and slightly heartbreaking part of this story is that when the game finally ended, I had skill 10. No achievement, no armour, not even lieutenant rank.

It says lieutenant on my service record but I don't have it on the swat playlist or in my achievements. Is there something bungie can do about this or do I just have to bring my rank back down?

"Then where did I get this muffin?"

In a single playlist not global rank.

A friend of mine got skill 10 on squad battles. He was a Gunnery Sergeant. His rank jumped to lieutenant when that happened. He also got the spartan officer achievement. So I don't know why mine didn't do the same.

50 xp in a single playlist, after you do that than *bloop* Achievement earned.

Because he got it pre-TU2.
Nowadays the criteria has changed- you need 50 experience in an individual playlist to get the Spartan Officer Achievement and Lightswitch.

@burritosenior- How recently did that change because he got it 4 to 5 weeks ago.

I quit Team Doubles before and got the Mvp achievement.

TU2 was much longer ago than that. The requirement really is 50 EXP in a single playlist.

EDIT: Did he also get Vidmster Challenge: Lightswitch?

I just checked and he did in fact have 50+ experience on squad battles. I thought it was 30. Thanks for the info though guys.
