Hello Miners,
[[b]Update for clarity: These achievements are not available until 1.0, only visible (hidden) on Steam so we can test that they work]
The big post about GEAR is a tiny bit delayed due to some minor changes being made to the system, so we thought we’d bring you another 1.0 feature reveal. When Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor launches into 1.0, it will have 300 achievements, which means we’ll be adding 259 more than we currently have! “More achievements” has been on the top 10 of most requested additions to DRG:S during Early Access, so we wanted to go all out for this one.
The new achievements come in many different categories. There are the endurance-based ones where you have to complete lots of dives, kill loads of enemies, or deal massive damage. There are achievements for naturally progressing through the game, so you get them from completing masteries, for leveling up weapons, and for completing specific dives on the highest hazard levels. There are also a variety of achievements where you have to go out of your way to play in a specific way, like the “It’s all in the wrist” achievement where you have to complete a dive with 4 [THROWABLE] tagged weapons equipped, or “Extreme indecision” where you have to perform 50 rerolls during a dive. Then there’s the downright diabolical tasks, such as “Just like the old days”, where you have to complete a Hazard 5 dive without any gear equipped, or the “I ain’t buying it” achievement, where you have to complete a Hazard 3 dive without buying anything in the shop.
Finally, we’re happy to add 28 new achievements based on community suggestions. Some weeks ago, we made a call-out for players to submit their achievement ideas, and some most of them were really good. Some of those we’ve added to the game include the “Mission Possible” achievement, where you have to land on the drop pod ramp 3 times using jet boots, and the “Perfectly balanced” achievement, where you must complete a dive with all your weapons at the same exact level.
We look forward to seeing you flex 300/300 achievements on September 17th when Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor launches into 1.0 on Steam.
Rock and Stone!
