We know it's an issue and we're continuing to look at it and work on it.

Thanks for your patience.

They are aware of the stats on the website not updating:

Thanks for the patience.
If you have not seen the new achievments yet, click here for a list.

If you feel I have missed anything, please post a link and I will add it.

EPIC: Feel free to edit as needed.


Thankyou for reading, and please keep this on the front page to avoid questions that are answered here being asked again and again.

Those achievements suck I'm sorry to say. They just made it so people would spend money on the new maps. Epic said Microsoft makes the maps cost money. I do believe them that microsoft wants the company to charge for Download content. I do however dont believe microsoft wants companies to make achievements to download the maps. The achievements are crap and shows epic colors.

Micro$oft dictates that achievements over 1000/1000 gamerscore must require premium DLC.
