THE DARK RETURNS WINTER '09.

Dont mean to spam the boards with this, but i hear the new defiant achievements can be unlocked without being in a defiant map. True?
Also im having trouble getting the one where you do a beatdown in a jetpack. Im pretty sure i did that at least 3 to 4 times in a game on hang em high, and i got nothing. Any ideas?

If it says defiant you have to do it on a defiant map, same with anniversary ones. The jetpack beatdown has to be a beatdown (backsmack) from behind.

Don't think so, just has to be a quick beat down.

Yeah except you didn't... You don't even have any of the new ones. You might be thinking of the old ones, which could be done in customs and on any map.

You said Defiant's could only be done on Defiant. You can do them on any map.

He's talking about the brand new achievements, they can only be done on the correct map pack.
