I logged in this weekend to play more and all of the achievements were gone. Every last one of them. The game play on L4D2 feels different from L4D so much so that it’s not nearly as fun to go through. The problem with that is when you struggle through all the episodes, especially that dang bridge, and you are stripped of your hard earned achievements it’s a kick in the face. I don’t want to have to replay all the levels because it’s not nearly as fun as the first game. It’s frustrating. It may grow on me though over time.

I played more this past Sunday so hopefully they are still there. Still what a giant pain. When you’re sitting there starring at the blank achievement screen the first thing you want to do is call someone at Steam to ask why. That is when you realize that contacting them is like trying to find the wizard of oz. It just isn’t going to happen in reality. So I resorted to using Twitter to vent. They could at least offer us first day achievement losers a discount or at least an apology.
