Hip Shooter, Airbridge and Dust Off Achievements

Recommended Posts

I've spent several hours trying to get the 3 achievements in the title, but no love so far.  I know it's kind of stupid wasting time in the pursuit of achievements, but I'm into it nonetheless.  So here's the deal:

 

Hip Shooter: I've tried to get this one on Orange 1 and Purple 3 (I think it's 3, it's the one at Ghost Hotel)  and I've done them several times without using a scope.  Some of the targets are hard to see, so I do zoom in occasionally, but have tried doing it without zoom as well.  Is the achievement glitched or have I misinterpreted the requirements and/or drill?  Also of potential use, I've not done either drill fast enough to get a bronze medal.  

 

Airbridge:  Spent quite a few hours on this one and delivered 14 groups into battle without dying across 2 games on a server hosted by me.  The most I've been able to deliver before my side wins has been 8 groups.  So I'm not sure if the problem is that it has to be done in one game or hosting your own server or something else.

 

Dust Off:  As it is connected to Airbridge, I haven't really tried it yet, just in case hosting your own server is the problem with the Airbridge achievement.  It also seems impossible to get 10 medevacs in one game if that is part of the requirement.

 

So if anyone has any helpful insights regarding these achievements, I'd be totally stoked to know.  "Helpful" is the keyword here.  In searching for information about these and other achievements, it seems quite common for people to simply post the description for the achievement, like that is sufficient.  Thank you in advance for not doing that.  I've read the descriptions many times and they do not suffice or maybe I'm just an idiot.  Either way, I'm looking for more explicit info.

 

Cheers!

This is for anyone having trouble with Hip Shooter.  After 4 years of trying it on and off, a friend finally solved it for me.  I always do this one Purple 3 at the Ghost Hotel and the problem turned out to be that I was to close to some of the windows and doors while going through the drill.  It's not important to hit all the targets or get a good time.  I missed a lot of targets because I needed to stay away from the windows and my time was over 4 minutes.  Being close to a window or door counts as resting your weapon.  Good luck to anyone who is having trouble with this one, turns out it is a very easy achievement to get.

I actually got Dust Off a long time ago and this youtube video was quite helpful for it:

As of today, I still haven't gotten Airbridge, but haven't tried for a long time.  If anyone has any tips or tricks for that one, I would be stoked to know.
