New Achievements Viewable

Go into Steam today and look at your achievements. You'll see a boatload of new ones that are itching to be unlocked. I don't think they're live yet, just viewable until the patch probably.

There's unique achievements for killing Lord Dreadmor with permadeath on now. Rest are mostly for mastering specific skill trees.

A funny random one though.

Perilous Podiatry
Die by kicking a door down

 

Hah!
Had that happen to someone in my thread;

So epic xD

 

The Vampirism achievement is...

Team Edward

I almost don't want to get that out of principle

 

Shame we dont also have a Werewolf/Feral Shapeshifter tree that'd be funny

 

New achievements but we can't get them now

 

"Perilous Podiatry
Die by kicking a door down."

How exactly can this happen? Do we like, wound our leg with the pieces of the door which are infected ?

 

There's a chance you take a little damage every time you kick a door. Assuming you're already that low on health, you've probably got open wounds all over you, and getting wood chips in them probably isn't too good.

 

So are they still only viewable?

 

I've died by kicking a door already :/

 

So far the new achivements are only viewable, which is pretty standard. When new achievements come out for a game, they are usually viewable ahead of time. Once patch 1.03 gets distributed you'll be able to get these achvievements.

I have my doubts as to whether you can get achievements for things you've already done. Especially if you had permadeath on, there's not even a save game to correlate a possible achievement.

 

My pystrologer is almost at Dredmor and has tons of maxed out trees. May as well wait for these to go live to kill him.
